Sorry it’s a crazy start to 2020.Bumpity bump
Any updates Mr Trailwatts?
Bosch gen 4 testing is current. I need a tec pack for continued testing.
We’ll see what 630wh does on the E8000 tomorrow.

Is this to do with the Focus shimano system?
Should get out with the 378wh early next week.
I estimate 18-20 miles in boost depending on temperature, wind and muddy trails ?
This was a boost mode only ride, bike derestricted and 252wh extender.

You managed to get hold of a Focus then ? Will be keeping an eye on this.
Going out with 378wh plus 252wh in backpack this weekend so 1008wh of fun.

I'm specifically interested in the 252wh option, maybe two to replace my current TEC pack
I’m working through design and options now.
252wh and 378wh options.
I found having 2 x 252wh was very practical and light enough to swap over while riding?
Now to design module for the EP8?
Let’s get the new module on the EP8?
Focus Jam2 pictured is a Small frame.
252wh and 378wh will be available May/ June.
Pack will include:
Battery Pack
Link Cable (so you can use multiple Trailwatts batteries)
Cage
Bolts
Strap
Prices to be confirmed early April.
252wh is 1.4kg, 19cm tall with 7.6cm diameter.

How does that work for you? I know the travel path of the shock is fairly vertical, but it does move outwards. That looks awfully close to colliding with the TEC pack on full compression. Have you already moved the TEC mounting rail further up the downtube into the Sam2 position? Have you tried the mounting the shock upside down?
I'm interested because I'm hoping to fit a shock with an external reservoir (when DVO can be arsed to actually make and ship it!)
Thanks for the info, I will back up a fake and see if it fits.
Hows shipping to Australia looking?

Hi Steve, it basically doesn't work at all! my frame is a medium and I can't even sit on the bike (80kg) without it touching. if I want to do a bigger day I just swap out the shock back to standard and use the tec pack.
I would rather have shorter rides as the tec pack makes the bike feel horrible anyway so fingers crossed the trail watts system fits and its light at 1.4kg.

How inconvenient! Have you tried moving the TEC pack rail up the downtube into the Sam2 position? It's only a couple of bolts, takes a few mins. That gives enough room on the Sam2 for the coil shock and it will give enough room for me to install my DVO Topaz shock when it arrives. The power cable still fits OK, tighter curve but perfectly OK. Or maybe mount the shock upside down, does that work any better?
As for the TEC pack; yes it's another 2.2kg, but apart from when it comes to lifting the bike over gates and so forth I don't notice the extra weight. I guess if I did wheelies everywhere I would, I'll give you that.
As soon as supplies are secured, I will run 100 units on a pre-order basis with a target date for completion and distribution.
60x 252wh packs and 40x 378wh packs.
60x 252wh packs and 40x 378wh packs.

Any idea of costs at the moment?
Pricing will be completed very soon and pre-order of 50 units will be required before construction begins.

I'm interested in a 252w unit, keeping an eye out for pre-orders and pricing. Thanks
