I was doing DH runs (very slowly, very nervously and quite badly) in my early fifties and enjoying it, but really an XC type. Never got on with flatties as my feet came off on every landing with appropriate pain inducement. Twenty years later I'm somewhat more nervous, keep well away from...

Borrowdale Sunday 14th November.

Hi Snipenose, fellow new member and Tynesider here. I spent the last four years mocking the two lads I know with e-MTBs so I'm guilty as charged. However I broke my femur and shattered my hip at the end of May, and although I got back to the bikes 2 months later I found I couldn't do big climbs...

I have the water ingress problem. Unfortunately it lets crap in well before I get home to clean it. I think I'll try glueing some thin rubber inside the outer edge.

Yes, took that out too. First time I tried to turn on a narrow track it jammed and almost had me off - straight home to delete it!

I knocked this up on the lathe. It's 15mm deep and lifts the BB about 6mm. Desperate to get the pedals higher but can't find short cranks for the EP8. I also shifted the control wire from the daft headset slot to the downtube by drilling a second hole in the cover plate.

I think I spotted a discussion on dropper posts so I thought I'd let everyone know what's possible. This is my 2021 700. Not sure if the carbon models are the same but I've managed to get my 170mm dropper pretty much right down into the frame by a bit of wiggling and easing on the cable. It...

Just spotted this on Merida's web site, link came from the 2021 eOne-Sixty 700 page , Expert eTR handlebar link. "On official mountain bike trails jumps with built landings up to a height of 60 centimeters are permitted." Doesn't sound like they cover much gravity stuff! I mention this because...

Hi All. My first question on here is: Does anyone know why the Aussies get a Merida online registration and we in Europe (I'm in the UK) don't?

Hi All, and thank you Rob for letting me in. I've been collecting my Old Age Pension (UK style) for about 6 years now, so I'm cracking on a bit. Been into MTBs since 2000 but always a biker (and off-road racer) before that. I watched Rob's 'Tube review of this bike a few days ago then...
