    Giant e-road crank removal

    The area the tool needs to fit into to contact the end of the square taper is smaller than the ones you're used to, SW's photo shows the size differences.

    Bosch system and reduced range???

    I suggest that you try to avoid flattening the battery, just because it will be hard work getting home, Use the 5 bars of the battery gauge to gauge your usage, noting how far each bar gets you to estimate how for you'll be able to get without running out of power. It could be as low as 15 miles.

    Ongoing reliability of Kalkhoff/Focus Impulse 2 motors

    I'd like to know what fails in the motors and how the failures have been resolved? At the moment I'm under the impression it is the freewheel/hub in the motors that breaks, and it has been resolved by making the motor soft start and with lower power? I'm sure a comprehensive answer to that...
