    Bosch battery testing

    If the battery can be killed in a test, it probably may also suffer a "natural death" during a long ride, normally at the most remote location of the track. So if the test kills the battery, it is uncovering a battery issue and saving you the hassle. Well, that's my opinion and I may be wrong.

    Motor reliabilty

    E7000 has plastic gears that break easily, if the motor is replaced, better to get an E8000

    Bosch PowerMore Can Length?

    You are reading it right and the battery mock up has a body length of 200mm, which is the dimension specified by Bosch. I removed the air from the current shock and bottomed it out, and the shock does not get any closer to the PowerMore.

    Bosch PowerMore Can Length?

    I forgot that Shock eyelets are rotated 180ª, so when placing the shock upside down, the piggyback reservoir is rotated to the right, I tested the fit and the interference is similar, but I do not like it. This time I did not feel like making sawdust, so I used Photoshop. So I still have my...

    Bosch PowerMore Can Length?

    I am willing to buy a new shock Fox Float X for my eBike, but as in the future I may buy Bosch PowerMore, first I want to check that both will fit in my bike, because Float X has a piggyback reservoir that my current Rock Shox does not have. So I got the Float X dimensions from a Fox...

    E020 error Shimano e7000

    I had this error E020, and it was caused by the "clip" contacts in the battery, which is the most probable cause, although it can also be caused by a broken or pinched wire, motor connector or motor electronics. Good Luck!!

    Motor reliabilty

    80% at 500 cycles is very good compared to the real Shimano batteries. I had a Shimano 504Wh BT-E8010 that after 80 Cycles had a degradation of 76%, then Shimano removed the degradation number from etube diagnostic after V4.0.3 . But it still could be read using STunlocker, and take into...

    Bosch Power More 250W

    It is easy to check which theory is correct, whether Powermore Extender can work or not alone (Without Main Battery) in a ebike with POWERMORE READY = NO. To test it, we should proceed the following way, but as Powermore Extender has not been released yet we should wait until it is released...
