I have been posting on the problem threads because unfortunately I have had one with my 2019 SW. Do I regret buying it? - NO WAY! - it's laugh out loud good and restored my passion for biking 110% - you absolutely won't regret it.
No Bike this weekend then as the new cable did not arrive from Spesh today at the LBS:(. Its on route apparently. In answer to BBKs question about the modded cable - I had a chat with the LBS mechanic tonight as it happens and he said the new cable is definitely modified at the plug end that...
Hi AMC - I have posted elsewhere tonight on the news I have had today from the LBS. I am still hopeful to get the bike on friday as they believe they can get a new harness in 24 hours from specialised apparently. I remain hopeful that I will get a ride in this weekend.
The bike shop phoned me today. Apparently the problem is that the plug that goes into the motor is cracked (which I think I have just seen reported by someone on another thread today) This has allowed moisture/water in and the bike does not switch on as it detects a short and protects itself. I...
Well I said I wanted back the end of the week so I intend to pick it up Friday. That is subject to then ringing me and telling me it’s something terminal!
My SW went back today as it won't switch on consistently. I did enquire about the 4 bolt housing while there and apparently this will be fitted under (uk) warranty if the original fit is poor with the 3 bolt set up. I did not have a problem with my 3 bolt so it will not be changed.
Well I dropped my bike off this morning at the LBS. It did not start when I wheeled it in so they saw first hand what I have been getting for the last few weeks. There are apparently some software updates to be done as well but no details on what this fixes/changes. Should know more later this...
SRAM XX1 chain - new on bike Dec 18 (19 levo). Replaced yesterday at a little over .75 - 392 miles. Sounds terrible compared to an acoustic bike but I used to ride around 12 miles on an average ride on my old turner, now my rides are more like 35 miles every time. 3 times the miles means the...
Well I couldn't get it to turn on tonight again so I pulled the TCU out to have a look. No sign of moisture in there so I don't think thats the problem. Really could not get it to boot up so ended removing crank and motor casing and giving everything a blow out and a dose of contact spray. It...
could be getting in there I suppose. It tends to be a problem when I go back the following weekend to use it which is why I think condensation. If water is getting in there though it could be making the TCU wet too. I will give this consideration this weekend.
I use the contact cleaner (WD40 one) as it seemed obvious to me that moisture one way or the other was getting into/onto the contacts between the battery and the connector. I have not had any errors on the TCU only the occasional refusal to turn on - annoyingly just at the point when you all...
I have swapped from the stock butcher grids to MM DHF 2.5 WT exo front and back. They are the same width as the 2.6 butchers on 30id rims but have much tougher casings. My LBS set me up tubeless and I was seeing latex bubbles front and back pretty much every ride on the butchers (mostly New...
