    Issues with my bike

    For the mileage issue, check that the wheel size is set correctly in the app for your rear wheel. If it's set to automatic then you maybe better off measuring it with the tyre inflated and entering it manually (which I've had to do for one for my bikes before). Also if you've installed a speed...

    Painting calipers - top idea, or stupidest idea in the history of biking?

    I love my Shimano XT brakes. I wish I didn't because I could just buy some Hope orange brakes and be done with it, but alas, I do really like the 8120's. However they obviously only come in black. We all know you can paint car and motorbike brake calipers so I thought. hello, why don't I do the...

    Even shorter cranks?

    :ROFLMAO: Love the way you posed that last shot. And just so I'm not seen as derailing the thread.....short cranks.

    Even shorter cranks?

    Don't those cost a billion dollars?

    Even shorter cranks?

    I was surprised they didn't use ear protection too! 54 year old here, with tinnitus. Fecking thing! Got it as I used to be a tank mechanic in the army and running up the power packs for testing for years is most likely the cause (even with ear protection at the time - back in the 80's)

    Even shorter cranks?

    Considered the 145's for sure as I'd love to run the Giant in the low-chip setting, but I ordered their 155's in the end. I just couldn't work out whether 145 would feel odd or not and it's an expensive mistake to make.

    Fox Float X2 cavitation - anyone else?

    Mine was sent in for a service (to TF Tuned) and they phoned me telling me there was scoring on the inside of the air can and that some grit had also got caught between the seal and shaft and caused a minor full stroke length scratch. Hard to see, but can feel it with your finger nail. I'd only...

    Syncdrive pro Factory reset motor?

    If it's a speed sensor then the middle (3rd) left led on the top tube will flash red. Have you changed the brake rotors recently (or a wheel with them on for another wheel with a rotor already fitted)? If so, make sure you transfer across the small magnet that's mounted to the rotor through two...

    Everything about the 2022/2023 Giant Reign E+

    My X2 has just gone back to Giant for replacement. 15 months in and when it was being serviced by TF Tuned they told me the air can was scored on the inside. Pretty poor for that to happen already. They spoke to Fox and are replacing it. As it happens I upgraded to a coil anyway, but I still...

    Everything about the 2022/2023 Giant Reign E+

    It’s a modified DT Swiss 370 (3-pawl). The mod is the casing is steel instead of alu, for increased durability.

    Anybody tried Spank Spoon mountain bike bars?

    Now also taking a look at Deity bars and seeing what's available here in the UK.

    Anybody tried Spank Spoon mountain bike bars?

    I'm considering picking up a Spank Spoon 35 bar for my Giant Reign E+1. I'm curious whether anyone has ridden with them before and if so, how did they find them in terms of vibration dampening, stiffness, and ride comfort, and their overall strength/longevity?
