Thanks. That would seem to make sense. Mind you, for the last two miles home on Wednesday, there was no support as I was just pushing it after a thorn puncture. Sorted out tubeless this afternoon, though, so hopefully that will help!
Hello,
Please can anyone explain how the average support level works in the Mission Control App once a ride has been finished.
My stats seem to indicate that when I use assist a lot, then i get low numbers, and when I use mostly Eco, I get high numbers. This seems counter-intuitive to me...
I paid list price, but got pedals thrown in. Only cheap ones though. Others may have been able to haggle, although as demand is so strong, they may not have got far with it!
Hello,
I got mine four days after my money cleared with the bike shop. Two days of that was the delivery company sending it to the wrong depot at the other end of England!
That was just before Christmas.
Si.
Seems like weight makes a big difference, as you’d expect, particularly on the hills, as on the flat even I (at 105kg) will hit the 15mph+ fairly easily. I’m a relatively fit 105kg, I should add, relative to my weight and age cohort, that is. I’m 50, just for the record.
On the way home I was...
Not embarrassing at all. Always good to share the sillies, as someone else will benefit!
I had my front end on backwards for the first three miles - I had turned the handlebars the wrong way when unboxing it! Happily an analogue mtber pointed it out to me (oh, the shame!)
So now that I’ve put the kids to bed. Here is a more detailed range update, in case anyone finds it useful.
Total distance 31.59 miles.
Two bars left at finish.
Used the Smart Control on the app until the puncture, which was about 12 miles in. There were 9 bars showing at that point.
After...
I made it! 2 bars left, but I had it turbo’d for the second half of the ride, after the puncture (tubeless soon), and once I had been told the kids were already waiting at the in-laws wanting to open their presents. That sort of thing helps any dad get a wriggle on!
About to ride 32 miles on mainly canal towpath, hard gravel paths and asphalt. Ascent / descent approx 1,000 ft. Going to use the mission control app to manage my power assist level. Should I be worried...? If anyone answers I’ll have done it by the time I read the replies, however I have not a...
Rotor ok then, I think. I’ll see how tomorrow goes!
Is it possible I’ve worn out a set of pads already? Most if my riding has been pretty flat. Not much in the way of downhills.
Hello!
Ive now ridden about 50 miles on the new Levo base model and noticed on the last ride that the brakes are feeling very soft (which I believe is a ‘thing’ with the SRAM level T’s), and have started to shudder, a bit like an ABS system on a car. The speed of the shudder is directly...
I did an extended test on a Trek with a Bosch motor and the drag was really off-putting. The Brose is so much better. Still some drag, but nowhere near as much. When researching it is really hard to establish a price band like-for-like comparison. For example in the sub £3k btmracket, £3-3.5k...
So, first ride done. Only 5 miles out along the canal and back.
Can you spot the mistake...?
Note to selves (and wishing I’d bought and collected it myself so that I could have had an introduction to the bike), when unboxing the bike, and straightening the handlebars, make sure you’ve got...
It has arrived! I suppose I’d better get on it.... Why am I nervous? It has been so long in the mind. All the research, working out the finances, changing tack and finally the delivery problems. Only one thing to do, really. Breakfast!
Still not arrived, although I have pedals, which I have strapped to my shoes and am pretending with, much to the amusement of my neighbours. On the subject of which, the courier put a card through a neighbours door at 10.00 this morning, to say noone was in. No. They both work. I, on the other...
Getting the base model. Was a stretch financially as it is, and as I am new to any type of full-sus, I expect even that will blow my tiny little mind. In my head, of course, I am about to do the Mega Avalanche race thing. In reality I’ll be riding like a baby giraffe learning to walk. Drunk. On...
Hello!
Mine arrives tomorrow from Rutland.
I asked about the motor cover issues and they are waiting for the sponge pieces to come in which he thought was imminent. Still need to fit it myself, mind. I could also cut and fit one myself. Not overly happy with this DIY approach, but all sorts of...
