    Converting an Intuvia to Purion

    I'll drown my sorrows on my own with a Benedictine then.

    Converting an Intuvia to Purion

    Certainly. :) I'll even buy you a virtual beer.

    Converting an Intuvia to Purion

    Perhaps I'm wrong and he did. :oops: I'd agree with you in that case, and add that the gear change/select icon is just as pointless. I'm really not that keen on not being able to remove the display though. I always remove mine when ever I stop anywhere if the bike is to be left unattended, and...

    Bosch system charge external device

    We sound very similar in our likes and dislikes. :D I also hate the blink mode on lights, and thanks for sharing the details about the light. I'm very happy with my Fenix BT20, but it is always good to learn what others are using, and I've always like the Magicshine range of lights. Ref...

    Bosch system charge external device

    @Sambal Oelek Off topic, but is that a remote switch for a Magic Shine light that I see between the Intuvia and the phone? If so, how do you rate the light and which model is it? In respect of the Intuvia usb. I hate anything unnecessary on the handlebars, and just keep my phone which has OS...

    Converting an Intuvia to Purion

    Not something that I agree with, and I find knowing what power level I am using at any given moment to be quite invaluable, especially when balancing battery conservation, against power on climbs. A point that is invaluable for when riding in the alps. You must be bloody clever if you can hear...

    eMTB owners photo and ride thread.

    You will have to go back there and take a further photo when the winter freeze starts to set in. :) Sadly no riding this week, due to a back issue, but I'm hoping to get to the South Downs on Saturday to make up for it. I have also decided to swap out the saddle and grips on the hardtail, and...

    How High can you go on a single charge

    There you go, a schoolboy error before I have even got started! :D Arne's brakes must have been fried after just a few runs. Chapeau to the man. :)

    How High can you go on a single charge

    Sounds perfect already. :) Where are you heading off to? As for carrying battery, you soon get used to it, and I don't ever really notice that I am carrying it. Though part of that is probably down to my superb Camelbak Mule. You bastid Artstu, you made me loose a night of sleep! You had...

    How High can you go on a single charge

    Got to say Nealh, that is bloody impressive. :) I'm having to settle for the Eiger. :) Back on home turf and off road, I never seem to get the range that everyone else claims to get from their Bosch powered bike. I would guess that the average using say 75% eco and 25% tour, might come out...

    How High can you go on a single charge

    I have one e-MTB climb planned for 2018 which is totally off road and covers 8,740ft of elevation gain over a distance of 15.40 miles. That climb will take the best part of two batteries to complete, and will form the end of a 650 mile ride, with the sole aim of setting a world record. I have...

    Full Suspension or Not?

    Owning both a hardtail e-MTB and full suspension e-MTB, my go to bike is the hardtail and the full suspension is hardly being used at all any more. I keep question my self whether I even need a full suspension, and I am still considering possibly selling it. In line with my current servicing...

    One of the reasons that I make my own. :D Really enjoying the thread Steed, and many thanks for sharing. :)

    eMTB owners photo and ride thread.

    Lovely shot, and perfect terrain as well. :) Out of interest, do you have an Instagram account? With approx 75mm of rain over night and with it still raining now, I opted out of riding tonight. I had thought about just sticking to the roads, but neither bike is ideal for that use. I can see...

    e-MTB, What's the point?

    For once, a nice positive reaction and opinion. :)

    Black Friday

    I saw those when they first came up. Sadly not tubeless ready hard skin, or I would have bought up a few sets. I really rate my Toro's although they do wear out very quickly.

    Actually I have just been outside to get the bike ready for for tonight's ride, and thought the same.:D Staying indoors in the warm and dry, suddenly seems like a good idea. :D

    Afraid that neither appeal to me. I'd rather be out in the real world cycling than use either.
