    Snow traction

    Jones H-Bar. Like it very much. Many positions and great for fitting various equipment. Only drawback is that because of the back sweep it requires a looong stem to get the same reach as with a straight bar. I have a 150mm :) bought it at some store in the UK, SJS Cycles perhaps.

    There are wider fenders available. My gf's bike have 2.8" tyres and fenders from a German store Classic Bicycles I think it was. Looks great and good quality.

    Snow traction

    Today was tougher! More snow, and harder packed. It was actually quite difficult getting through. 2WD effect worked, but I had problem getting down the frozen ground. This is the rare occasions a fatbike could have been better I think. Imagine a 5" bike with middrive AND front wheel drive. That...

    Snow traction

    Today we got plenty of snow! Yiehaaaa! But my mid drive MTB is broken :( so what could I do? Ride on roads? No way! I used my trekking bike with front wheel drive and didn't think it would go so well. But you know what? It did! Actually way better than thought. I guess it is because of two...

    After market bbsxx crank drive gear

    well. Big difference in layout. That one you put chain ring outside. On Precialps you have it on inside. As close as possible to motor. Better for chainline and if chain jumps off inwards. And you can mount a chain ring guard plate on the outside position if you want. Ie dual chain ring mounts...

    But I greased the big gear area, secondary reduction gear. Have never opened the motor/controller before. First time this. Maybe it is like Woosh said, water comes through BB?

    Thanks for answers. Yes, I will, bought grease. Just waiting for the tool to arrive so I can remove secondary reduction gear. I had put alot of grease in there in the beginning. But now it's mixed with rust and water :) doesn't seal so well there. But the motor and controller parts should be...

    Since my MTB is down I have to use my trekking bike instead :( but it works quite good on easy trails like these. Actually it is a nice challenge riding this bike on trails :)

    Have now opened up, all gears is fine! Very strange this. But it was much water intrusion in the motor area. Maybe it was a short somewhere. Hall sensors or something, that prevented control to work as normal. Or there is some dirt in some gear. Actually the secondary reduction gear didn't move...

    nice, multiple systems also. But that one is much bigger and more advanced with Bluetooth. Not much pricier though.
