I've been meaning to get a spare set of wheels for my current bike and E-MTB's intro to Mavic's E-Deemax has had me looking for a pair since. I finally sourced some and they arrived last week. They have a slightly more involved strip-down than my current Hope's, but it's all very easy. The...

The impression I got was that, unless you've already managed to get your Bullit, there's no 2021stock what-so-ever at SC and all their production is now geared up for 2022 model production. Estimates on availability on those bikes is anywhere between August and October, but may even be around...
I'm a big fan of ally frames, so would ask why you've come to the conclusion that the Heckler, or any other carbon e-mtb, isn't for you? I test rode the Heckler, which showed I needed something a bit burlier, and would love an ally Bullit, but with not even a teaser of one being made, have opted...
Part of the issue/problem is the trend for modern geo having to run steep seat tube angles, in order to make sufficient room for the rear wheel to move through its full stroke without hitting the seat tube. The XXL Bullit is 76.8 and my Trail Pistol is 76.6. What i'd really like to know is the...
It's good to see you understand the principles of Geometry and RAD. I'm unable to comment on the Bullit's 'feel' as i've not been able to sit on one, let alone ride it.
I've had to base placing my order on my current bike's geo and the aforementioned test ride of the Heckler. Also, being tall...
Ask for the RAD measurement for the medium and the large and you should be able to answer your question. To work out how to get your RAD measurement, try this.
I need an XXL, but even that's likely to be a tad small in the bar height. Based on a test ride on the XXL Heckler, i felt I needed more...
I ordered mine recently, with a £2K deposit and no confirmed delivery date. Knowing this, I ordered Copper, with the right to change my mind if I ended up with a 2022 model and the colours changed.
I'm more than happy to wait, as the Bullit's sizing is the closest i'm going to get to a perfect...
It's not about what add-ons the bike requires to make it street legal - which, incidentally, makes it illegal off road - it's about the excuses the manufacturers make regarding any potential warranty claim. If the bike's derestricted, they'll say you've exceeded the set speed limit and decline a...
I've just had a quick look at the latest review on the Moustache Friday 27 FS Speed Dual S-Pedelec, which raises the following question.
If the Bosch CX Line Motor is sufficiently strong/reliable enough to use at speeds up to 45kph, then why won't they honour a warranty claim on an E-MTB...
Geffo, are yuour bikes less than 6 months old? If so, you have strong rights to return the goods as not fit for purpose under Consumer Rights Law. Older than 30 days and you have to give the retailer one chance to repair your bike. If that then fails, you can return for a full refund. If it's...
That's my reason for wanting an e-mtb with the EP8. The ability to turn down the assist easily is a no-brainer if you're a fit rider. I'm starting to struggle on the steeper hills and the longer distance rides, so a bit of assistance is all I require. A buddy of mine has done the same with his...
I contacted Brink as they had the bike listed as 'in stock'. However, when you chat to them, only a few sizes/specs are available. They did agree a good deal on a bike, but I managed to coerce my LBS into the same deal, which makes it far easier to deal with any potential warranty issues. My...
Try reading the whole of this post. There's a link to Lee McCormack's approach to bike fit, which is RAD.
ETT? I really shouldn't have to be spoon feeding information like this. Look at any manufacturers geometry guide and you'll see what ETT is. Not having access to bikes in XL/XXL sizes makes...
