    USA deliveries of PX?

    I don't have a dog in this fight, but wouldn't one expect reduced import volume due to tarrifs?

    Extender battery?

    You don't need to match system voltage. The Levo RE doesn't. Electric motors can operate on a wide range of voltages, and regularly do, as the voltage of these packs isn't constant. It drops as they discharge. I don't know exactly how combining a RE and main pack works, as it drains both...

    Extender battery?

    I don't know why they wouldn't release extenders. It's just leaving money on the table to not release them.

    Extender battery?

    330 would be perfect for what I want. Was there an announced 700wh extender? Why is the assumption that "FPXXX" is an extender?

    Well, I think that's it for me...

    I think there's a few vocal Avinox haters and people get riled up by them because they behave pretty much exactly like hikers/equestrians that want to ban mtb from trails.

    USA deliveries of PX?

    Personally I think the 700wh is ideal for many of my rides, and hopefully they'll come out with the rumored 200-400wh extender for my longest rides. 800wh is a bit more than I need for most rides, and 800wh+extender is more than I need for any of my rides.

    Well, I think that's it for me...

    No idea what you're even on about. More than half of the general discussion threads are not Avinox related, and most of the Avinox related ones are because a ton of brands just launched new bikes with Avinox motors.

    Dji avinox- Amflow - Discussion

    I think this is especially true of higher levels of the same suspension. All those extra fiddly nobs aren't particularly useful to most riders (especially me).

    USA deliveries of PX?

    So dealers couldn't even preorder them yet? I put in my reservation like a month ago.

    USA deliveries of PX?

    Do we know Amflox vs Pivot support record? Locally I have the same # of Amflow and Pivot dealers (one), but I suspect the number of Amflow dealers will grow, while Pivot will not.

    Who actually wants more than 85nm and 400%

    I was happy with the power on my gen3 levo, my gen4 levo, and gen4 levo post update. I'm sure I'll be happy with the new Amflow too. So each time I got more power I didn't feel like I needed it, but I certainly wasn't unhappy to have it. I do think that 1500 is truly more than I need or want. I...

    Avinox launch 1500w M2S motor and cheaper M2 motor

    I don't know how many people are like me, but it's definitely not about speed in practice. 700-800wh is not enough for me to go faster than my current bike and still go the distance. If someone's ride was already running down the battery of their current bike with a average battery size then an...

    Avinox M2S: 1,500W, 150Nm, and a PR Offensive

    I'm sure a tough climb has gated people from things that are too difficult for them, but I'm equally sure there are tons of double blacks that aren't hard to get to at all. It's just not a strong argument. The safest option would be to ban all mountain biking, but I'm sure you're not advocating...

    Avinox M2S: 1,500W, 150Nm, and a PR Offensive

    Why does "flying" up a fire road at 25kph make one a prick? Seems totally victimless. As far as passing people on single track, that is just the reality of mixed speed climbing. It's true of hikers vs mtbers. It's true of mtbers vs more fit mtbers, and it's true of emtbers and faster emtbers. In...

    Avinox launch 1500w M2S motor and cheaper M2 motor

    I think it's silly to argue that it doesn't enable faster speeds. But you're also right that the reality isn't people zooming up hills at breakneck speeds. It's only remotely a problem at blind corners and such, but that's already a problem for riders going downhill, and everybody should be...

    Analysis Paralysis - First eMTB

    You honestly can't go wrong with Bosch, Specialized or Avinox. If you have no one that works on Avinox bikes locally then that'd be a big mark against them. Since you're new, I'd see if there are any good deals on a used e-bike. You can spend way less money, get a very capable bike, and learn...

    New Amflow April 9 specs

    Is it fair to call them delicate? Maybe they're not suited for big jumps/drops with heavy riders (I have no idea), but they came on my bike and I'm not light.

    Extender battery?

    I'm realizing other people are riding very differently than me. I've never been anywhere where charging partway through is remotely an option. If I'm gonna ride 30 miles, it's out and back in the wilderness, not laps at a bike park.

    Weird Reversed Stem Geo / Chat

    I went on a ride today and at the halfway point flipped the RR stem around. Felt a lot better with my setup. I think that the 12deg bars were bringing my hands too far back with it in the normal orientation. My hands are still well behind the steering axis. The issue I was running into is when...
