Finally got my August 15 pre-order GT Enduro tire yesterday. Got the stock treaded off (10 mins, now that I have some experience AND tire spoons!) and the Enduro installed last night. Dropped on the recall fixed sensor pad as well.

Took it out on my typical daily ride and the best description I can give is "confidence inspiring"! Coming from the bowling ball that is the FM OEM treaded, it's a huge improvement. Feels like when I put the Hoosier treaded on my XR the first time. The carving is super smooth and you can feel the sidewalls give just a bit to round out the carves. When doing super wide carves, it's the closest feeling to snowboarding I've ever felt on a OW. Small bumps and cracks have disappeared and larger ones don't try to buck you off the board like the OEM. It's whisper quiet on pavement and on the little bits of off road I ride, it's so forgiving that I immediately found myself going at least 2 or 3 mph faster and not worrying as much about taking the smoothest lines.

The old tire has 2000 miles on it and you can barely see any tread wear. Being so much softer, I'm hoping I can get at least that with the Enduro. I rode it at the same 18 psi that I'm used to and got pretty much the same mileage, maybe even a bit better.

For me, the Enduro lives up to all the hype and I can't imagine putting the OEM back on ever. I do worry about riding my Pint X/Hoosier treaded on vacation as, before, it was on par with the GT/OEM treaded . . . now, I'm thinking it will feel way worse in comparison.

@swinefeasterWow! Third set of bearings. I ride pavement and trails mostly and I haven't done big drops, just curbs . I will going for bigger drops and get some feedback.

@onedangt OH, I meant to write "18MPH". But, I only get 20Miles/charge also. It's my area (hilly), weight, and speed. My max ever distance on my CBXR is 24 Miles.

@Lemur Been using this thread to guide @cheppy44 through the same process (and repairing a headlight cable). Very thankful for the images <3

As was the case with yours the purple wire is severed somewhere deep in the guts of the insulation so looks like we'll be doing the same surgery.

@s-leon Actually, you give me another idea, but ill have to test it out later when I get an XR

@loaffette Thanks :3
I'm super slow when it comes to doing these things, so many unfinished projects D:

That scrollsaw was only £40 secondhand on eBay if you want to get something like that, super useful but a bit tricky to control since the blades are super flexible lol.

Forgot I have some trail sections to finish building from last year and new trails to start. Should have up to .5mi/.8km done by Summer. Doesn't sound like much but the terrain is pretty haggard lol.

THE BOARD WORKS
there's some random issue with the board randomly nose-diving, though I have no reason why. My solder joins are pretty spot on and is pretty good

Happened to me last night. Totally zoned out. When I finally checked the app I was out of battery. 2 hours felt like 15 minutes.

Thought I would join the party for a minute and make it 5 for 5.

@Franko & @NotSure I saw that too.
And to be fairly honest - my first thought was: Why is FM contradicting themselves on their statements??
At first Adam says: "... this will probably never happen again ... " and then in comments they reply:
@Franko said :

"... but depending on how it goes and how useful folks find it, we could certainly see a Pint program in the future."

Haven't thought of any clear rules for it yet. A space like that can probably do with some rules so moderation is clear but I trust us all to be sensible with the space <3

If it does become an undesirable space I can remove it later by popular request be it publicly or privately.

@lemur Oh, you mean through the wheel, so the axle would actually stick out further or less on one side by a fraction of a millimeter. I don't have a digital caliber, but I could hold my finger against the axle and bearing and probably be able to feel if it moved, since you are talking about the 1/10th of a millimeter scale. Well, at least in 9 of my fingers I should be able to tell.

I thought you were talking about play between the axle and the axle adapter.

I have stock of the Grizzly ceramic b/c I pick a bunch up when they go on sale, but I was thinking about trying out DHM or going to another brand when I have to change them next. When I change them, the pack grease appears to be almost completely gone. I have also wondered if the Grizzly's are more affected by the extremely high quantities of iron in soil near me. It definitely tries to work its way through the bearings and towards my motor.

@lemur I remember to update the firmware of my XR via OTA, so it doesn't make any sense to me.
Having the hardware, have you tried to dump it in a similar way of the BMS?

@biell lmao

@lia I was just reading about that patch, that is so exciting! A lot of info above my pay grade for now, but time to learn.

@lia yeh.iv messaged them so fingers crossed..Thanks for the replies 👍👍

@lemur I did think it was odd to immediately go all in over the settings especially when this is a DIY build but since it ships with something by default I'd be myth'd still.

TBH assuming I didn't just go for a dumb BMS I'd instead not ship these with settings and avoid the headache of people not liking what was set from factory.

@loaffette The Owie chip has a "lock " feature, I never enabled that feature in my boards that have an Owie chip as I'm bad at remembering passwords.

@lia so far, it's been nice. I Don't know about it's tracking capabilities but it's something that I can use to decently track it. I don't own any apple devices so I can't use an AirTag. I might go for the samsung one or find an old iPad and use it to set up airtags
