    Medium or short cage Deore derailleur?

    Bike: https://www.cannondale.com/USA/bike/Productdetail?Id=546e4e19-b395-4f47-85e9-b4a2de4349e0 My Shimano long cage "Deore M6000 Shadow+" derailleur got stolen today. There's a first time for everything I guess :) I need to replace it, but since I've changed cassette from 11-44T -> 11-32T and...

    Cube Acid 400 chainring upgrade

    @TobyAnscombe - what cassette are you using with your 46T front sprocket? I have a 11-42T. Thinking about switching to 11-28T or 11-32T in order to fine tune even more. 11-25t will probably be a bit heavy with the 46T front sprocket. Here are the shimano deore 10 speed options...

    Cube Acid 400 chainring upgrade

    I made the switch today from 38T to 46T and what a difference for the better! Instead of having about two useful gears while riding @25-30KPH I now have around 4-5, which is amazing. I can now find a cadance that fits me much better while going @ 30KPH, which is really, really nice. Very happy...

    Bosch CX 2020 - lighter and smaller motor - new and larger(also length) intube battery

    I'm hoping they'll include built in GPS/eSIM support. It seems like a no brainer. I'd like to be alerted the moment someone touches my bike :) At least for the more expensive display systems. A shame that they didn't make the 500Wh tube battery just a bit larger in order to make it 600Wh...

    Cube Acid 400 chainring upgrade

    I went ahead with the 46T sprocket. Also going to post a little report as soon as I've had a chance to take a ride.

    Cube Acid 400 chainring upgrade

    Interesting. I have a 10 speed (11-42) bosch active line bike and never use any of the ~7 lower gears or so. It's all flat where i live though, so 46T would probably be the best option. I'd prefer to have more options on flat ground, rather than just 3. I take it no you have no regrets after...

    Updates available for Kiox, the app and the portal

    Wouldn't show up, removed phone and re-paired, and then it finally showed a notice about the update. I couldn't see a status bar anywhere though. Just left the phone on with the app activated and screen on for 15 mins or so. Still couldn't see a progress bar or anything like that afterwards...

    Updates available for Kiox, the app and the portal

    Strange, mine doesn't say anything about a firmware update. I'll try again. I'm also on 1.0.0.0. I guess it only updates the Kiox firmware, and not the bosch system/engine firmware? (I'm using the Volspeed trim kit with my bike, and would be a bit sad if it stopped working :) ). The Nyon...

    When will Kiox become Bosch eBike Connect compatible?

    What? That's excellent. Thank you :) Will try at once.

    When will Kiox become Bosch eBike Connect compatible?

    The eBike Connect app is currently only compatible with the Nuvia system, but the Kiox system will also be compatible in the future. It just seems to be taking forever. Does anyone know when this might happen? I would be very happy to be able to import my data directly from the unit to my...

    Optimal cadance Bosch Active Line Plus

    I asked Bosch, and they told me that the optimal RPM for the Active Line 2018 (3rd gen) is 80 RPM. Sounds a bit high - do most people keep that cadance?

    Bosch Front Sprocket change

    I have a Bosch Active Plus bike with a 38T front sprocket, coupled with a Shimano HG500, 11-42, 10-speed. 30 kph equals about ~70 rpm. I can easily get the bike to 30 kph, but would be way more comfortable @ 60 rpm. Keeping 70-75 rpm for a longer period isn't very comfortable. Should I go for...

    Lightweight urban e-bikes such as Ampler Curt, Orbea Gain F40 etc.

    Thanks again for all the advice. I received the Cannondale EQ Quick Neo the other day. Haven't had time to properly ride it so far, but it does look great. Took it for a quick spin but didn't get very far as there was a problem with the chain (bike dealer will fix it come Monday). It weighs...

    Lightweight urban e-bikes such as Ampler Curt, Orbea Gain F40 etc.

    I simply couldn't resist after giving the Cannondale Quick Neo a spin, even though it weighs more than what I had in mind. I'll post a review on here once it's delivered. Should take about two weeks.

    Does anyone know how much the Cannondale Quick NEO EQ 2019 weighs? https://www.cannondale.com/en/Europe/Products/ProductCategory.aspx?nid=aeeaf2af-a245-4e00-9301-34bb8918b4e1 Edit: It does say 17kg here: https://propelbikes.com/product/cannondale-quick-neo-eq/ Edit #2: No, it's 20 kg...

    Mustache has some new bikes that are interesting (although expensive, but not insanely expensive): https://granfondo-cycling.com/first-ride-review-moustache-dimanche-28-eroad-bike/...

    Orbea Gain auxiliary battery

    Most people on here are very happy with the range though as far as I can tell: https://www.pedelecs.co.uk/forum/threads/orbea-gain-e-road-bike.33598/page-3 Not that these cyclists represent the "average joe", who mostly pedals around with the maximum assist level active. In that case, the range...

    Orbea Gain auxiliary battery

    Seems to be ~€400 or ~£340. https://www.bike-discount.de/en/buy/fazua-evation-1.0-battery-250wh-755157

    Orbea Gain auxiliary battery

    I was expecting maybe £250-300 at most. Not twice that. That's a shame. Maybe a good idea to contact them and explain that there's no way we'll ever pay what they're asking.
