    Q-Factor Bosch

    Got them now! Serious stuff this. They look a little cleaner than my old ones, couldn't find them now but here is the new ones: And, when measured it is exactly like planned, 49.2mm! How great this is! Now I have all the stuff to get my fatbike in one piece!

    S06S Controller Failure

    ...and today I think I killed another one. Was biking in some terrain and this controller really doesn't like that. Have been through a couple of these now. Just curious, have something happened on the market last year or is this still the best standard controller to get?

    which lidl saddle ?

    They comes to Sweden on the 27th! :) I'll camp outside Lidl then, need a few more. Have already a trekking and one sport. They are great, especially at that price. Like the trekking most.

    Last week spring came!! ...but today, winter came again!! :) ehh, well. Too bad my fatbike is broken :( I actually got the last piece today, but broke another piece this weekend because of "bad planning", so now I can't fix it. Otherwise I could had used it from tomorrow!! But well. It can't...

    Q-Factor Bosch

    Soundwave! Thanks for that. I think we found that website simustaneously. I was looking at the back side of my crank and it said "Miranda" so I was looking there... It looks like the "Gamma 0" model (looks 99% correct), but couldn't find the right measurements there, but the "Delta 0" model has...

    Q-Factor Bosch

    Ok, I ordered some cranks to try and find a more straight one, but it was difficult... First I have to show you the distance between the crank and chainstay. It is about 17mm as you see. That would mean I can easily fit a crank which is more straight, I feel it would not have to be more than...

    Regular or Fat e-bike?

    I have a Fatsix, wonderful bike, but I use it mostly in terrain, it has amazing traction and comfort in all sorts of terrain. Not only soft but good trails also. You can build custom wheels with 29'ers on if you like. They have though larger Q-factor, so if you ride with SPD pedals you might not...

    Comfort handlebar mod

    Yes. I know what you mean the more upright position needs a little more upright saddle also. So it's not perfect in both positions. I have done a compromise, it's good in comfort position but in the sport position I have to sit a little longer back on the saddle to make it feel good. That works...

    Comfort handlebar mod

    Good idea there. How do you like now after a while? I have been adjusting my butterfly bar many ways but I don't like it too much, first year I thought it was awesome but I've come to dislike the zero degree part (the ends). It would be some angle there I think. Last try was the "mad bull"...

    Anyone running alloy forks with front hub motors?

    I have run my Trekking bike with Rock Shox fork for over 7500km now and it works like a charm. Has a similar torque arm but a separate fastener around the fork leg. 250W motor. Sent from my LG-H815 using Tapatalk

    eMTB buying advice

    I have also used a standard ebike and wanted an explicit offroader. Since they can't be good on both really. So I bought a Haibike Fatsix Xduro. Very satisfied. Great looking and good bikes. Also check out Cube. You don't initially need a dropper post. If you ride much trails and downhill then...

    well... today I tried to disassemble the rear hub. No luck really, but it's a total mess. The sealings on the XLC hub are wasted also and I can't find new ones online. So.... I decided to order a new hub, maybe one that will last a little longer... A genuin English hub from Barnoldswick. Hope 4...

    I also made an experiment on my standard ebike that had no speed limit, front hub motor. So I put the speed limit to 30 km/h and tried a long ride but assist still on highest to get good acceleration. It's easy for the motor to keep 30 km/h on flat. With no limit it use to be around 35-40...
