    Will going faster make it easier?

    So quick update. We have just got back from Wyre forest which have a few trails that are not to difficult although some sections we passed on due to the steep drops. Went with a change of mind set and taking in all the advice (which has been brilliant I may add) we tried to just attack the...

    Will going faster make it easier?

    This was us the other week at a local trail which was relatively flat with no major obstacles but as you can see we where still taking it steady.

    Will going faster make it easier?

    All great advice and is very much appreciated. If anyone can recommend somewhere good for beginners around the west Midlands in the UK that would be very helpful. Don't seem to have many dedicated bike parks near by?

    Will going faster make it easier?

    Thanks guys, all advice appreciated. Guess steep declines and very gnarly terrain are the biggest obstacles. At the age where we can't afford any major injuries and also not going to bounce back up like in our youth so this fear is holding us back. I feel a lot more confident going up hill as...

    Will going faster make it easier?

    Hi all, recently got my emtb and have hit a few trails with my brother. Now we're both very new to emtb and trails plus are on the more mature side so not planning on doing anything extreme. So we're starting slow on some mixed trails that most would class as very mild I'd guess. However last...

    Latest firmware causing issues Trance E+ 2 2020

    Interesting, I was trying to get the speed hack working the other week without any luck. After noticed the auto mode wasn't working with the down button press and figured out i had to hold the up or down arrow to get auto mode. Thought I'd knackered things but looks like it was the FW update I...

    Remove speed restrictions for free

    Tried the controller hack above but nothing, still stuck at 15mph. Any ideas if this has been fixed/removed with a firmware update? Thanks, TR.

    Not the bike you really want but from local shop?

    Finally got my bike yesterday. Had a quick play last night and just been on a longer run down canal tow paths and nature trails. So far I'm blown away. Left in auto mode the motor works really well in most situations. Suspension absorbs bumps without fuss. The brakes were somewhat of a shock...

    Just quick update, sadly still not got the Trance yet. My work have been very slow releasing the funds to CTW. They say should be processed next week. So frustrated, slowing complying all the kit and accessories but no bike. Will get it just as the weather turns shit :-(

    Well just been to the shop. First what smashing people happy to answer all my questions and give me tour of the bike. Complete breath of fresh air. The bike looks great, super colour and perfect fit for me. Put deposit down until my ctw certificate comes through. Now got to look at all the other...

    Thanks again chaps. Think I'm going to go with the Trance E+ 2 unless anyone thinks this is a bad idea?

    That's what I'm thinking. Fear is setting in.
