A sprocket remover / chain whip is to be used in order to hold the sprocket in place while removing and fastening the lock ring. Also to be mentioned that most of the torque wrenches do not work anti-clockwise, regardless to the presence of the switch to rotate ratcheting direction.

Worth pointing out the 3mm spacer is sometimes built into the chainring so if there is a 3mm ridge on the back of the chainring, and your new one doesn’t have that built in offset then you need a spacer. For example, the Sram Eagle versions come flat but with a spacer for boost in the bag.

Hi my bike motor bosch. sprocket for motor bosch xx1 eagle? Then which sprocket should I take for needles? stood x01 11 speeds, put 12 and at 3 speeds from the bottom, the top breaks the chain. from the front sprocket. on the rest is normal. Sprocket 25t. what to do?

I want to install an 80T #40 1-inch bore size sprocket on my e-bike. It has a Prowheel 52T #40 sprocket on it right now. Are there any issues or concerns doing this? Can I just buy a type A sprocket with extra chain links or #40 chain. It would be nice to also have a sprocket guard also.

Great video! I have a Trek Crossrip+ and need to change out the 20T chainring. I have a Park crank arm extractor tool but the crankset is hollow and there is nothing for the tool to push on. What does the tool you used push on? I need to purchase the 20T chainring and the locking tool. I don't see the links to purchase them from.

Important warning: some torque wrenches only click clock-wise! Put your wrench into a MUCH LOWER torque setting and see if it clicks. Else you will need a long extender and reverse the torque action with an open wrench attachment.

Great video, Thanks!!!!! I have a Tern Vectron with the Bosch Active line mid-drive motor. How many miles do you think I will get on the original Bosch front chainring? I have had the Tern Vectron for 5 months / 1,300 miles. I changed the chain at 1,200 miles.

@SCOOTERETTI

5 жыл бұрын

Thanks Mike. There are several factors that will determine changeout frequency like chain quality, chain wear etc... On average I would say 2000-3000 miles would be a good figure to use. If using high end chains like our Connex ones your service intervals will be longer vs say using a more standard chain. As the chains wear they cause the teeth on the rings to wear quicker. So a good thing to initially is to keep an eye on the tooth shape and when you see them change swap out the ring as it’s cheaper to do that than wear your chain and cassette out prematurely. Hope this helps. Will

Thank you very much for the explanation. Did all as you said, it was a piece of cake. I am still wondering however (hint for a new video ;-) ) if there is a cheap way to replace the Haibike proprietary chainrings with 5 mm offset with something non-OEM. Had to shell out 100€ for that ring...

@SCOOTERETTI

4 жыл бұрын

Indeed the Haibike chainrings are quite expensive. A colleague tried to come up with one for his Fatsix and unfortunately, it did not work out and went back to getting the original part. Not sure if anyone has had any good success using a non-Haibike offset chainring. Miranda may have something but I have personally not tried it yet. - Will

Great video! Very detailed. Could you replace the sproket with a bigger one with more teeth?

@SCOOTERETTI

Thanks 🙏 for the feedback and glad it was helpful. Typically it’s recommended to stay at the same number of teeth that the OEM design the drivetrain with but we have not seen any issues with increasing them by 1 or 2 additional teeth. Just make sure you have enough clearance around the drive motor cover etc….

This depends on which drive motor you are referring to as well as which generation as there is a difference. We suggest reaching out to the shop the bike was purchased from to get the specs on your bike to get the correct torque specifications. It's super important to get these correct.

That's my buddy's new bike 😂

I have a Fuji E Transverse One.3 with the Bosch motor in the sprocket. The Bike has 5600 miles. It is only used for road or a paved path. Yesterday the chain jumped the front sprocket and became very tightly wedged. I checked the chain wear with a Park CC-1 chain checker. The wear is in the blue (good) zone. Since there is no front derailleur, I am at a loss as to what would make it jump the front sprocket. The sprocket teeth do not appear to be worn. I plan to change the chain, but I am not sure that this it the cause of the problem. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Norm

@SCOOTERETTI

2 жыл бұрын

Doing a quick search it appears the bike is not equipped with a derailleur clutch so this can happen on rougher terrain, bumps, curbs etc....... Depending on the condition and wear of your drivetrain components this can also be the source (chain wear or kink, work our chainring, cassette or a combination of these.

If I have a 16T chainring, is it OK to go up to a 20T chainring to get a higher speed gear ratio?

@SCOOTERETTI

2 жыл бұрын

Typically we do not recommend going more than 2 teeth higher as this can trigger an error code as the original programming in the firmware will see a cadence vs speed differential. Also depending on which bike you have, you need to ensure there is enough clearance to accommodate a larger chainring. Our recommendation is to stay with the same tooth spec that the originally put on the bike from the factory to avoid any issues.

Hi, I need spacer from 7:40 What is typical size of this spacer? 2,5mm? 3mm?

@wakeywarrior

3 жыл бұрын

Paweł LODZ 3mm

I presume the chainring should be positioned on the splined shaft so the chain does not rub on the motor housing when the largest (innermost) cog on the cassette is selected and does not rub on the flange between chainring and crank when the smallest (outermost) cog is selected. Is the only adjustment the presence of the spacer ring? What if the chain still rubs on the motor housing?

@SCOOTERETTI

2 жыл бұрын

Hello, There should be no rubbing against the housing covers. If you are getting rubbing, you should ensure that the chainring has the same # of teeth as the OEM supplied the bike with. Also ensure that if a spacer came with the original chainring are being used as failure to use these (if originally equipped) will cause rubbing against the housing cover.

I would recommend going with a 19T as 20T may trigger an error code. Make sure you have enough clearance around the plastic cover around the drive unit so that the chainring/chain doesn't rub. Some covers don't allow for much space to increase the chainring diameter. Keep in mind that you may need a longer chain as well as you may be a little short. Hope this helps, Will

@SCOOTERETTI

The sprocket offset is determined my the bike manufacturer and not by Bosch. You will either need to measure the offset of your current sprocket or reach out to a shop that sells your brand of bike and ask them what that offset is. Bosch always recommends a flat chainring but some manufacturers have to use an offset due to the bike’s design.

Should you Grease the Sprockets inside the motor unit?

@SCOOTERETTI

The motors are completely sealed so there is nothing to grease internally within the drive unit. If the drive unit is exposed to excessive dirt/water there is a plastic dust cover that can be removed/replaced on the ISIS drive through. We suggest removing the cover and applying the Bosch grease in this area then replace the dust cover.

For safety sake you should have people remove the bikes battery first.
