Lol, mine too! Totally cactus at 14,000km

Specter, this one would be for you. Anyone else got 100k for a racebike program?

Ah.
It was a paid for ad (but not disclosed) to drum up hype for an IPO

The battery packs have no unique identifiers, swapping packs between bikes is plug and play. The only exception to this is the cells used in newer (2024 MY) 21.5 packs used cells that could be charged to a slightly higher voltage (4300mV vs 4200mV), this is what provided the +5% range increase. Firmware and battery parameters would need to be updated if you were to use a pre 2024 battery in a post 2024 bike or vice versa.
This sort of information is why you are so valuable Chris.

My first thought would be to look at the chain and sprockets, especially given that you do not feel it under load

This lead me to check in on our mate Rob De Munk (the one that did the outreach) aaaand he’s left the company in May. Oh.

I’ve been around the Prologium factory, and it is still hype. The facilities are no where near large enough to indicate mass manufacturing, which is supported by the fact that no end user equipment manufacturer (ie Mercedes who are supposed to be a customer) has integrated their cells into packs, despite the production line running since 2024. That video is essentially a paid for media release, and definitely marks the content puppet as a shill as there was no critical assessment of the technology or company.

Superhooligans does look like awesome racing. Not sure how much is the rider and how much is the bike, but #2 looked so much more stable than #95

Energica / Re: Replacement LED indicators for Eva, Eva Ribelle and SS9 in Europe
« on: May 05, 2026, 07:11:50 AM »i was thinking maybe like a mini dlp type setup to chop up and send out a sheet of light across the street in front of you using the beam of the laser.
This exists...kinda, see LED matrix headlights
Laser headlights never directly projected light onto the road, not only does this have massive glare, contrast and blink reflex issues, it would never be permitted due to potential vision damage (would exceed class 1 to provide sufficient illumination)
I just did the upgrade to my Experia turn signals with the LED running light ones from Energica of New England
Ooo, I can't seem to load the EoNE/Robs Dyno website, how much were these?

Energica / Re: Improved copper Busbars...

Another important improvement in such a high vibration environment, I believe copper has a much higher fatigue limit than aluminium. I would also think that the aluminium would be more prone to corrosion that the copper too.

You are right Spector, only the US has incandescent lights on these bikes (even the newer experia), so it must be some weirdo standard you have. Is it something to do with the colours?

That power efficiency of the chain also assumes a run in, but unworn chain in excellent condition. The 9-15% loss for belts appears to have been based on V-belts, a synchronous belt or timing belt like what Smithy has installed is easily over 98% efficient in power transfer.

I think smithy has the solution for you……belt drive conversion!
