Battlecruiser

[Julio]

First ride out on my 2019 Powerfly LT 7 Plus today. No pics yet sorry as it was pretty wet out there. I now call it the Battlecruiser, ‘cos it is grey, fast, and packs lots of firepower. Geez it gets along well and the suspension and MT520 brakes are great.

Only changes I might make are swapping out the noisy metal brake pads and maybe some carbon bars with a slightly higher rise for comfort.

Finally remembered to take a pic of the Battlecruiser. Great ride up and down one of our local loops at Whareroa Farm this morning.

Went for a ride thru some new trails in Kapiti, Wellington, NZ today. Great single track thru the bush. My riding mate on the Remedy kept “borrowing “ my Powerfly ?

Very nice ! How many miles you have on it?

Only 3 rides so far - Strava tells me 69km, Bosch tells me 71km. It seems that the Bosch system over reads. I researched online and it looks to be common. I couldn’t find a way to resolve it. I assume that the wheel diameter calibration setting is slightly incorrect.

Did a double loop of our local climb and downhill here in Kapiti, NZ. The loop is only about 7km, but good fun with a zig zag climb and a grade 3+ downhill with a couple of narrow spots and some steeper parts.

I got my fastest time on the second loop when I was warmed up. Climbing a narrow singletrack at speed is awesome, although I did get tagged by the gorse bushes!

Probably should have done a 3rd loop, but we have a building project on and I had to get back to the nail gun.

Only 135km on her so far, but still loving it.
Might look at derestricting in a year once warranty period finished, as I keep hitting the wall at 32km/h.
