I'd be really reluctant to buy anything from them without test riding. Their kinematics on the bikes here look... brutal. Massively high anti-squat, anti-rise, & pedal kickback. Really low leverage ratio.

I wouldve figured extra links would be their way of dealing with that. Strange if so. I know some people have had problems adjusting but then others have excelled. I wonder if theyve changed tge kinematics some on the new bikes? That article was referencing the 2022 foxy.
They didnt dive in too deeply in this article

Is it ok to make snide comments to elderly e-bikers illegally riding on trails where they are not permitted?

Yeah i hate it when they wear the white socks with sandals and you should admonish them for their fashion faux pas, in any case Its America don't you carry your Glock so you can eliminate the fucker ?
Too heavy on climbs. They were certainly struggling on the way down government trail.Quote:

Who gives a shit. I have a very fit friend who can climb most tech trails on an amish bike as fast as I can on an e-bike. Should he be banned from riding certain trails as well?Quote:

It’s as ok as any other opportunity to be a dick, I guess. Why bring that energy to the trail?Quote:

There is basically 0 troubleshooting information from Fazua. Calling Transition... nobody home... they have 100% computer generated voices, some of which are distorted and unintellible, on their phone system now... weird. Hope they aren't about to go under...
Call the battery manufacturer

My local Transition dealer doesn't open until noon.
I think the first thing i'd try is to clean the battery connection and put a bit of dielectric grease on them. Could be? Battery lights are good but only one light on computerQuote:

Oh I don’t know…maybe because there are signs everywhere that say e-bikes are not permitted?Quote:

The e-bikes obviously also are encouraging elderly users to ride black diamond designated single track and get in over their heads. They are going to get hurt.

it does not seem to be a problem up here, it sez on the sign that class 1 E-bikes are permitted but you don't see the old folks on radpower bikes riding trails cuz its just too hard altho you do see them on main street, so if you are getting old guys in socks and sandals smoking a dart riding 80lb bikes maybe your mtn bike trails are too easy ?Quote:

ergo the real problem must be Americans ?

"TORQUE SENSOR ERROR"Quote:

The connections accessible from the battery compartment were solid.
I wonder if I can get to the sensor by pulling the motor, and tightening the connection, or if it is integrated and inaccessible, thus a warranty issue?
I had issues on my Shimano that was fixed with a firmware update, altho people do fuck them up the firmware updates are pretty easy and about all you can do outside of checking connections which is probably why they are telling you to try the update but you are saying they are up to date
torque sensor sounds like a warranty issue
Pretty sure the entitled boomer illegally riding his moped on a non- motorized trail is the KarenQuote:

My dreaded E010 issues on a Shimano are a classic torque sensor issue, sometimes rebooting cleared it and sometimes it was completley dead,
I'm 4 hrs from the dealer so I never really got it fixed becuz it would be ok for awhile and then it would fail, the thing with an intermitent bug is that you can't really fix it when the bug goes away.
I updated the firmware twice and on the second update > 6 months after I had bought the bike the bug completely went away so it was bad firmware
we are now riding computers with 2 wheels
Yea fault is gone... haven't gone for a ride yet...Quote:

Interesting thing: Fazua windows diagnostics software lets you set wheel diameter, speed limits, cassette teeth, chainring size... I haven't messed with it but you could potentially kill the limiter.
Another intersting thing: Fazua has a setting in the software for a bike light that is operated by the right controller. It can support 25W to the light! That is easily 2000lumen. There are offering but they are expensive like $150-$375... when you consider there isn't even a battery! The wiring is cheap like $10-20... I bet a DIY could get it 2000lumen for <$100
Im not sure. Torque sensor error on a shimano most likely means its new motor time becaise the torque semsor has detached and shimano dont sell small parts for their motors. Its the most common warrantee issue with shimano. It could be totally different with fazua i really have no idea. But that could be good because i havent heard mention of that on fazua. I know bosch and brose are almosr completely rebuildableQuote:
