No pics but I wound up with Hunt All-Mountain wheels and Maxxis DD tires. Made a huge difference. Really happy with them.
Also picked up an XT shifter and derailler. Installed that and used the Sram cassette and chain. Everything seems pretty happy. Doen't shift quite as quick as...
Incase anyone was wondering, the stock wheels are really heavy! I picked up a set of Hunt E-Allmountain wheels which I figured was going to add substantial rotating weight but actually not. The stock wheels weigh 2206 grams and and the Hunts weigh 2168 grams!
We have a Velocirax that we use. After having a vertical bike rack they are all I want. Its so easy to load that my 12 year old twins can load their own 55lb ebikes!
Any update on this? Looking to try out a bell but don't know it I want to invest 30 bucks for a shelf item if I don't like it.
Also, is there a link to the one you picked up?
I use PNW loam XL grips. If you have larger hands, once you get used to larger grips that's the first thing I notice when I get on another bike.
There's another brand of foam grips that are thicker. I've always wanted to try a pair but its been hard to stray from what I know works.
Got 260 miles on the bike so far. Still really loving it. It has received some upgrades. Planes changed on my bike due to finding some deals on parts. The plan was fox performance elite stuff all around but fox had a major sale in the US. It was less than $100 difference from the fox...
On the note of grease, what is the consensus of which to use? Does everyone use bike specific grease? I really like the idea of the Motorex tubs because they have brushes built in.
I'm kinda new to bike and been using Sil-Glyde just because it what I had. It seems to work well but its all I...
I always put the valve toward the top of the tire just so I don't have to bend over so far. lol My wife has cuchcore and hers always spits a little sealant out.
I use 4oz of sealant on new tires and 2oz on top off's around every 6 months. The current tires are only a 3 months old and still...
I'm struggling with getting a low pressure presta gauge to last. They always seem to get clogged up with sealant. I started with a nice brass one and it lasted a few months before it stopped working. I picked up a new cheaper one and it lasted maybe 2 weeks and now it will check pressure but...
I asked about the 2024 full fat Kenevo's in the US. The same thing happened to them. They are available everywhere else but not here. I was told they are waiting on getting a UL rating for the USA.
