Apparently the PX does this as it's primarily a motor aimed at the commuter market and it allows manufactures to spec coaster brakes if needed. Isn't overrun configurable on the Specialized though? You can turn it off completely in the app I thought?

Also just to be clear, I am not saying there's no difference between motor brands when it comes how the motors feel to pedal when not engaged just that most of the pedalling thorough treacle felling you feel when over the speed cut off is down to the physics of needing to make up for the lost watts yourself rather...

What was the weight difference between your Levo and Fuel+? I noticed a surpisingly big difference difference in pedalling my Levo gen 3 with the battery in vs. out which is about a 3.5-4kg difference.

People often blame motor resistance for the difficulty pedalling over the cut-off but IMO it's very little to do with that. It's more to do with your legs instantly having to double, triple or quadruple their output once the to motor drops. If you are riding at 24.99kmh with 150w of your own power and 350w from the motor (i.e...
That's not really how it works. They designed the bike around a max rider weight of 100kg and all the forces that would be associated with a 100kg rider ripping it down DH tracks (i.e. category 5 conditions). Given that the Cube team races (or will) these at WC level I assume it's more than burly enough for the average...

John Tomac is widely considered one of the greatest (American) mountain bike racers of all time. During the early years of international racing he won numerous DH and XC events. He went on to be the namesake and involved with Tomac bikes. The 204 DH frame in the photo was their flagship model. The bike company then ceased to exist (in the late 2000s?). I also believe he helped coach several (a lot?) of racers over the years including Aaron Gwin for a time. Finally, if you’re into motocross, he is the father of Eli Tomac. Basically, John Tomac was...

If you read your own AI slop you’ll see that Bosch has Heart Rate Monitoring AND it has an Auto mode however nothing indicates any integration between the two. Auto mode does NOT monitor your heart rate in order to deliver power and stay in a targeted HR zone.

Fox has E-Optimized and E-Tuned forks, the later sounding like what you have. E-Tuned is just a damper tune. E-Optimized incorporates structural changes to the crown and lowers, along with an E-Tuned damper. You can run regular Fox forks on an e-bike and they work great (what I do).

Gobao seem further on that Avinox when it comes to the eCVT and from Eurobike interview they were looking at an early 2027 release to the market. On another forum it was said that they do have established brand(s) on board for that window also. Given that Gobao already supply white label drive systems to Aventon and Hepha it's not...

All the M2S bikes are sold because there was very little stock to go around after it was released. Bike brands (and Avinox) won't be close to realising their desired M2S returns yet at this stage. It's gonna be August or later before the supply chain of M2S bikes really gets going.

Gobao are targeting early 2027 for their unit to be on production bikes. They do apparently already have some known brands on board for this according to a user on another forum. The Avinox one sounds more like it would be late 2027.
