    Stock H15 rear hub is destroyed after 4 weeks

    Yours being h15 mine h30 Some h15 got the same Chinese Chosen hubs due to supply issues. Check the specs I guess ? Certainly true of the h30. Ask them for support on procedures for replacing the axle and they send you pictures of a Shimano cup n cone loose bearing hub. Even though chosen hubs...

    Stock H15 rear hub is destroyed after 4 weeks

    Stock H15 rear hub is destroyed after 4 weeks

    Expect it to fail. Because it will as will the hollow alloy axle either by wear or simply undoing the thing to change bearings which are too tight and go notchy. Start a warranty now imo

    Goggles or glasses

    And goggles fog up when you’re stationary? Glasses allow blow by round the nose into the eye making your eyes run, and fall off?

    Goggles or glasses

    Interested in this. With the added complication of wearing prescription glasses. Which are expensive but offer some protection. Usually end up wearing basic safety over glasses as nothing else works Goggles always squash my nostrils a bit below the bridge of the nose though. So I can’t...

    Is it me? Second faulty EP8 after 315 miles total…

    Further …. Could it be that the fault is with the transmission carried over from the first motor that remains undiagnosed ?

    Is it me? Second faulty EP8 after 315 miles total…

    That “could” just be a slipping freehub, or a missing tooth on a small sprocket, from experience. What’s the error code exactly?

    Comment by 'Bob Orbea Rise' in article 'Testing the Shimano XT Di2 Auto Shift – automatic shifting'

    Surely they can use cadence and torque sensor to shift off power? If your on full torque through your legs the last thing you want is it changing gear. ? I’ve noticed by messing with walk mode and changing gears , that it’s very dependant on the wheel speed sensor in deciding what it’s doing...

    Edit: Will Fox Float X2 shock fit a rise?

    Or thinking further, modify the can to clear. Basically grind a bit off. How thick is the can though? Anyone know? I suppose in the interests of saving weight…. Not very thick at all. And it’s still got to hold the pressure ramp up

    Edit: Will Fox Float X2 shock fit a rise?

    That’s a shame I have an XL frame and looking for a shock with high and low speed damping to match my new fox 36 grip 2. I was hoping there would be a way but being at 6’3 and looking for more exciting trails it’s not worth the risk. Is there another similar suitable option that fits?
