    Excellent post Barrio, at Performance Line Bearings, we have been packing the crank bearings and main motor bearing for some time now and although the original Bosch silicone grease helped for a while, it picked up dirt and disappeared over time. The new Bosch "green" grease is definitely an...

    Bosch drive and min/max gear ratio parameters

    If you set the crank length to less than 165mm and run 170 -175mm it's lovely! The motor adds power low down to compensate for you trying to set off with short cranks. So, when you have longer cranks fitted it feels like a nice shove of torque, each time you shift gear. More noticeable when...

    Yamaha PW motor water resistant?

    A PW or PW-X motor will fill with water if submerged for any length of time. The main issue with the Yamaha motor is that the circuit board is located at the bottom of the motor, once this has been submerged, it's usually game over!

    Bosch motor service/repair kit + news

    Excellent feedback, thank you Barrio. I have found a very similar grease now and there is 100ml in the tube rather than the 20ml from Bosch. I am doing some tests to ensure it is as good if not better and if I'm happy, then it will be on the site soon. :)

    Bosch performance motor crank movement

    Excellent advise Pete! I have now seen so many motors where the damage has been extensive because the warning signs were ignored! If your motor starts getting noisy, don't ignore it!! Also, stop fitting MAX bearings! They are the wrong bearings for this application. Use this one...
