I've posted noise problems in this area as well. It turns out that the Bosch motor along with drive chain need much more maintenance i.e. cleaning, tightening and lube than any other bike I've ever had. I think you've covered all the areas I would have, but I had another similar problem to you...

Beautiful area for riding, but where's your elbow pads?

Cycling yesterday to find myself in a time trial and awkwardly passing everyone. OMG, took a sharp turn before the end, i'm sure i heard what the `*c! a few times :).

Thanks for all your help, passed onto him.

Coming at this from a different angle. Firstly, I can appreciate / admire the effort to convert the Trek. There's many carbon bikes of this spec around (i used to own one, full suss at 23lbs). However, and just imho, not the frame / spec to build on, in terms of what you've ended up with. It's a...

OK thanks, I will pass on the bad news.

thought id read that a different controller and some soldering may be able to de-restrict.

My friend has the above bike and wishes to derestrict it. Can anyone advise if possible and how. Any help appreciated. Thanks in advance Atko

The wheel set on my bike allmtn rx, before mods were very basic dt swiss hub/rims. Changed for dt240 hubs and hope flow rims, very serviceable and happy now.

I know, but it's crazy really to have to do this kind of maintenance. Anyway, I'm going through process of elimination and e-bike shop said my bike was bought in April 2016 (not the 1st). So plenty of time to look at motor. They can do a bearing upgrade for £60 if required. They said to post...

Still working on noise, I'm not expecting silence, but I'm convinced it's a chain type noise rubbing on metal issue. When I was riding last night trying to pin point noise (not easy), it's definitely louder when assist kicks in, but this could just be more tension on chain etc, unless there are...

Bearings fine. Noise still there. think i'm going to change chain first see how i get on. Hope i don't have to change cassette/sprocket.

Interesting thread. I ended up with a synology server which i either download or copy my movies etc too, which the whole house can access via tv, tablet etc. Easy and works well. Must have over 200 movies on there now.

carbon lube too;). Anyway, removed guide (grud catcher) stripped whole drive train down, cleaned, lubed and back together. Sounds better, but noise still there in the background. Maybe, i;m just a perfectionist.:(

Ugly, but like battery:)

I have both wet and dry lube

Bad marketing idea, an own goal me thinks!

I've always maintained my bikes, but the drive train on this bike seems much more sensitive to picking up dirt and needing very regular cleaning and lubing of drive chain. I think this is a design flaw, imho. Having to clean and lube possibly less than every 100 miles is crazy. Especially when...

I'll try this. Chain rubs on outer part of guide. Thanks

This might be a good idea, how did you do it, not sure from pic looks like a small hex hut in middle?. Did you also have chain noise with rubbing?
