May I suggest that you post your location if possible, as having it done locally for you, in the case of problems, you can speak with them directly. Just a thought! Andy

Which still riles up the same old same old, apparently.... But everyone is entitled to their opinion, and entitled to it, without being attacked in any way shape or form.... Plus, I can and have, posted many instances demonstrating that the wear and tear on such systems, under the same/similar...

Can you possibly make a video with sound? Probably not easy, but it might help your case. The best I could do is to say please watch these, maybe your noise is also here and you might recognise it- https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=Bosch+cx+motor+noise Andy

I am a bit surprised that you ask us for our combined opinions AFTER you have placed an order! Surely the best way would be to investigate first, order afterwards? Over a great many years of purchasing everything from houses to push bikes, that is the wayI have always done it, with of course MS...

Great Post. Well said. Andy

You have a great taste in cars if I believe your Avatar! If you are really interested in learning more about your bike and how it operates, a basic course in power and electronics may assist you further, though its not as difficult to understand as so many believe! If you are really interested...

The front forks may be vibrating in sympathy, but its obviously something to do with the axle or brakes, or both.... Truly excellent videos, well worth the time and effort in making them. I, and I am sure others here, are happy you posted them! Andy

Basically, exactly as I have done since I got a bike with disk brakes! Mine are cheap and not sophisticated brakes, but are still the best brakes I myself have ever experienced on a bike. Any better and I would fly off the saddle! :D :D A replacement caliper very similar, together with a nice...

A good post, showing a far deeper understanding than some other recent ones on Pedelec! Particulrly when a bike is a system, that all the parts have to communicate with each other as Bosch apparently sells. That too puts me off such products completely. Interesting that you mention spokes...

Childish at best!

Please check, I was answering questions and comments, as I NEVER take the "easy way out" of simply disappearing when questions get too hard to answer, as some members do here! Or making up absurd facts with no evidence supporting them! Especially as this is about illegal changes to previously...

Even if I knew, which I don't, I still would not pass the information on. The people that do that illegally to increase a bike's speed, and it smacks too much of lawbreaking rowdies, of whom I have absolutely no respect for. And I just hope they all get their "just and fully legal deserts"...

You said, and I quote you:- 4/ no I haven’t read all you’ve posted, it’s not that I’m lazy, it that I don’t care This also means that you are basically uninformed, as thats how YOU want to be! So your opinions, at best, are flavoured with a deep lack of knowledge! Your own personal choice of...

Both my own bikes were basically generic Chinese made rear hub motors, of otherwise unknown make. Neither one has had any problems that needed any attention whatsoever. I could not even say if they were Loctited or not, no idea! Total ownership time almost 10 years. They never ever failed or...

I watched the (unclear) video, and I was surprised that he did not appear to be riding fast, subjectively. But he was apparently totally silent, and the lady stepped out in front of him without looking to her right, as she should have done. Even relatively loud motorbikes hit pedestrians, in...

The impression I am getting from you is that you are comparing an apparently poor front hub bike (not my personal choice either after trying one out many years ago), against a better (far more expensive probably if new?) Mid motor bike? Which is partly the reason I went for rear hub twice, and...

Well put! Andy

If you accept that as normal, please do, your personal choice. But hub systems, especially those without a gear box, are so reliable that in almost 10 years of e-biking, I have still not had the need to open up a motor! And that, according to the links I posted, is NORMAL for hub motors...

Then consider yourself very lucky. Nobody, especially not me, is saying that it happens to all owners of mid motor bikes, but they do stress the drive train/chain, more than any other e-bike system. Its also patently obvious for anyone who has at some point, trained and worked as an engineer...

They are explained first, as part of the BLDC motor explanation, in the same article! Andy
