Hopefully the riding impressions are coming soon.

Yeah, my real-life riding impression will be coming, although it might not happen so soon. Several very short test rides were, however, more than enough to convince me of the high potential of Photon as a pure PAS conversion kit. And CYC's very well-developed firmware seems to contribute much to it. I am going to go for longer test rides within coming weeks. So stay tuned. Thanks for watching!

A massive thank you for putting together such an educational video! Seriously, it was clear and easy to follow - I loved it! When you have a chance to test ride the bike more, I would appreciate it if you can comment on how well the torque sensing works on this motor, especially when it comes to those tricky standing starts on inclines. Any insights you could share would be greatly appreciated! Thanks

Hi, so glad to know that you find this video informative. Actually, I am now editing a video of my short first ride impression of Photon. CYC firmware seems to be very well developed and nicely tuned to make the rider feel as if he were given extra leg power, not any unnatural artificially mechanical assist. Coupled with the sensitive torque sensor, the firmware does a quite nice job to make pedal assist feel so natural and comfort. And no problem with start from halt even on very steep climbs.

Greatly appreciate your time and expertise putting this tutorial together. Will help me install my new CYC Photon tomorrow.

Glad if my video will be of some help😊 Gool luck with your installation of Photon! Have a nice weekend!
