Dumb Cylinder Problems

I don't know if I could put a number on it for how long. But yeah, I think if you worked on it for 5 days and had some background in setup and bike mechanic skills, you can figure it out. BYB is prob the most user-friendly to start with. The hardest part is mounting sensors and the linkage ratio for the rear axle information.

I dont want to scare people away, but also not set them up for failure but its definitely not easy - you dont need a technical background but you need a lot of patience in the beginning g to understand what it all means. Ie making lots of changes while riding the same track and observing the difference in data. Then ride a different track with the same settings and see how it changes again - its easy to think you are seeing things in the data and get led astray, it is very powerful but it is just one...

Then I ran across this article from a local state news source of how everyone is dealing with it, which i already knew but, I got to thinking what's the potential for a class action lawsuit against Surron for mislabeling and purposely marketing their products as ebikes? Trail centers and even legitimate ebike manufacturers should be able to find standing and it would be a whole lot...

Charlie no

Fair point

No, cable operated stuff was released like 5 years ago.
