    Silence

    If it weren't for the freewheel the Gtech would be nigh on silent, coasting lets it down (might be due to the carbon drive rear sprocket?).

    your gainful employment ?

    Funnily enough I'm a Motorcycle Mechanic/ Workshop Manager as well. A lot has changed over the 19 years I've been in the job, spend as much time on the laptop now as in the toolbox..

    I wonder how often this happens?

    I honestly wondered what you were talking about then!. I use my smartphone to view the boards, phone sat in my right hand and use my right thumb to scroll up and down. It's become aparent if the page stops in certain places I randomly select options from the post lists.. Sorry for any...

    I wonder how often this happens?

    I ride all weather, Tesco waterproof jacket has been going strong for 5 years now coupled with a pair of waterproof trousers. Ice is the only real problem, I usually walk the bike out to the main road when it's iced over.

    My Carrera Vengeance Ultimate/ TSDZ2 build (in progress..)

    Hello soundwave, thank you very much for the offer!. I don't think will help with my setup though. The derailleur seems the way forward for the time being at least. Thanks again though, much appreciated :).

    My Carrera Vengeance Ultimate/ TSDZ2 build (in progress..)

    Sorry all for the painfully slow progress!, decided I'm not happy with current chain route so I'm taking my old derailleur into work to give it a good clean and will fit it on Sunday hopefully. I've bought a new (to me) car and caravan so money's tight now!, using my old bits is preferable at...

    Ongoing reliability of Kalkhoff/Focus Impulse 2 motors

    Maybe a rear hub drive would suit you better?, I'm a heavy pedaller and due to the Gtech being hub drive all my effort goes straight to the back wheel (through the freewheeling hub). Saying thay SW seems happy with his Bosch mid drive, presumably he pedals hard?.

    Ongoing reliability of Kalkhoff/Focus Impulse 2 motors

    Did you buy it on a credit card?, if so they are liable for it so my be worth ringing your card provider if you decide to reject it as "not fot for purpose". People say don't go after the retailer as they could possibly fold but for me I'd be taking my personal situation and financial loss...
