I would like to double check that should all Bosch CX Gen 4 motors have a white seal under the Bosch emblem? I got a new replacement motor from Bosch last summer. At some point the Bosch emblem got lost during the ride and back home I noticed there's no seal at all.
I'm a little afraid that the...

Has anyone found out a place to buy the Bosch CX Gen 4 motor (BDU4XX) electric connectors? Any idea who makes them or is it Bosch proprietary?
I'm looking for connectors for: Speed sensor and Purion. (just the connector, not the whole cable..)
I think I broke my Giro Switchblade MIPS-helmet to a point that I might need a new helmet. At the same time I made a change to start using MX helmet during DH-riding. So..just a thought: Why wouldn't I buy a MX trial helmet for my next helmet for EMTB trail riding? Is it a threat … or...

Anyone has any experience on good quality barmitts or pogies or whatever one calls them?
It's getting a little too cold outside for riding (-19'C) and my previous experience using barmitts with motorcycles has been good.
Anyone found anything replacement parts (something else than OEM) for the Rail motor guard? The OEM is quite cheap so the problem is not real. Just curious if someone has found something else.

I'm running the Rail 5 stock brakes Tektro HD-E275 with EBC CFA 493 (red) organic pads. The braking force is good and the feeling is not spongy. I'm using Pentosin LHM+ mineral oil.
The problem:
The freeplay in lever so big that the lever touches fingers. I'm quite sure that as new the freeplay...
Any experiences/thoughts/comments on spoke tension meters?

After 1200km and mainly stored and washed outside the headset bearings of my Trek Rail has come to an almost end. The lower bearing doesn't seem to have any protection from weather. When I bought the bike I opened all bearings and filled them good quality grease.
I think I'll clean the headset...
After 500km the rearhub of my Rail 5 seems to come to an end. Problems started when chain started to drop off from front sprocket.

With new (and old) NX...
What might have happened or should be done: Yesterday the chain started to drop from chainring out to the pedalside. I tried to google around a little didn't find or understand any good solution.
Any good tips where to start? It seems to happen when I have the smallest cog on. Is the chain too...
I'm currently riding budget Trek Rail 5 and planning to do a "small" upgrade from current Rockshox Gold 35 RL to Cane Creek Helm fork. There's the current model available and the new MK2. Thought about to change straight to coil model as it could be a little simpler if setupping goes correct on...
Hi,
I'm planning to buy Trek Rail 7 or 9. Any ideas and thoughts if it's worth paying approx 700 euros more for the Rail 9 compared to Rail 7?
Option 1: Buy the 7, drive one year and then use the 700 euros for parts that seems to need upgrading.
Option 2: Buy the 9 and get a good deal for 700...
