I rode straight up the South face of Tor Y Foel like a rocket yesterday ? Whilst sitting on the summit, the Snowdon thought did cross my mind lol

I've got the one from Aldi and just clamp on the dropper.

Hi guys, Was out on a ride yesterday and picked up a branch in the rear wheel which took out the speed sensor cable. The cable was severed flush on the sensor so no chance of a 'MacGyver' to get me home. I did try butchering the sensor with a knife to try and see if there was some way of...

Lezyne Micro C for me. Can't fault it.

Might bump into you as I was planning on going tomorrow. Went yesterday for the first time and loved it.

I've got the same one and no problems using it with the emtb. They are quality for the money.

I got mine from BikeActive too. Matched the web price. Bike delivery was delayed due to someones error somewhere, but it was eventaly diverted to me rather than being delivered to the shop (as they were going away on holiday). No issues with the bike at all, packaged perfect etc.. Bombed it...

Right. Got the tow bar and rack sorted, so i'm mobile and up for it if anyone is going at any point? Bearing in mind i've never been before so would appreciate someone showing me the way around or another noob to compare any crashes with ;) I've got loads of time off work between now and...

Im only 20mins away but shamefully i've never ridden there. I will be up for something (once I get the tow bar on the car lol).

Dropper fully extended is fine for mine.

My meta essential fox 29 never came with tubeless valves but the tape on the rims was perfect (E13 rims). Only needed to pull the tubes, pop the valves in and add the sealant and job done in under 10 mins.

Well, got the bike up on the 565 earlier and I don't trust it at all, bit wobbly, bike minus battery and front wheel is 19kg. It was complete mare to get it up there (Suzuki Vitara so not the lowest roof and had to use steps). Didn't feel very stable and it would only be a matter of time before...

Cheers for the tip, will get on that tomorrow too.

Well, it turned up this afternoon. Got to say i'm well chuffed with it. No damage or issues, bike is in perfect condition, dropper was installed same as you guys mentioned. Brakes took all of 3mins to swap over (gotta love Sram for that). Have only taken it up and down the street and bedded...

I'm waiting for the same bike and I'm going to try it on the roof if the weight is close enough to the rack limit. Will try it on my Thule Thruride 565, weight limit is supposed to be 17kg. Should be a few kg less than stock by seting up tubeless with the battery out and front wheel off. LBS...

Thanks guys that's good to know. I've gone for the Essential 29 Fox.

After a bit of a wait and some issues, it seems like the bike is nearly here. Just checked the tracking information and my bike is sitting in the Fedex depot in Cardiff so should have it on Monday. Can't wait to get my grubby mitts on it now and get it set up. Question for you guys...

True, like the look but not the price ;)

Bugger.....im waiting for a 2019 to turn up in the post.

Hi all, Have been lurking around the forum for a while assimilating all the info I can and thought it rude not to register. I have been mountain biking on and off for a long time, with breaks due to ill health, starting a family, work and all the other stuff that gets in the way but luckily I...
