    That's tempting but I'm not sure it's worth upgrading from my Fenix 7

    SRAM Transmission - GX vs XO

    For me, I’d go with the X0 if it’s only £150 more for the groupset. I’ve got GX AXS on one bike and X0 AXS on the other and the X0 just looks and feels better quality. Not sure if the same goes for the T-type stuff though.

    Review Five Ten Trailcross GTX Goretex

    I’ve had a pair of these for the past couple of winters and they’ve been fantastic, can’t rate them highly enough. Worn with a pair of DeFeet Willie Boolie socks they’re nice and warm for 2-3 hours out in sub-zero temperatures.

    Shigura vs Hope T4V4

    I must have spent thousands with Merlin over the years and they've been absolutely faultless. If you use Topcashback you can get 5% cashback at Merlin as well, which is a bonus!

    With 50% discount on Specialized e-bikes, Santa Cruz doing 40% off their 5010's and other manufacturers offering massive discounts on both analogue and e-bikes, does anyone think the manufacturers will start dropping prices any time soon as I can't imagine there's much appetite for buying full...

    Accidentally purchased illegal ebikes?

    It’s illegal to display any notice that deliberately misleads consumers or deceives them about their rights, for example a sign that says you do not accept returns or offer refunds. This is taken from the page I linked to. Contact Citizen’s Advice tomorrow and see what they say. I’d make a...

    If You’re Buying Used, What Would You Get?

    I went the other way, from the Pike to the SID and much prefer the SID. The Pike was good in that you could change travel if required but 120mm suits my riding.

    If You’re Buying Used, What Would You Get?

    Looks like our cycle to work place have added Trek Powerfly hardtails since I last looked. Now discounted to be available on the scheme. I may take a look at one of these with the view to swapping over the 120mm SID Ultimate forks, Zee brakes and X01 AXS group set and dropper off my Solaris...

    If You’re Buying Used, What Would You Get?

    If you were in the market for a used Emtb, what would your preference be and what would you avoid? I’m possibly in the market for something and our cycle 2 work limit restricts what I can get massively so I’m looking at used. Is there much out there that’s serviceable in any way? What kind of...

    Discounted Bike and parts Thread - cheap(er) ebikes & stuff

    I’m there right now. Currently looking for a bike but can’t decide whether to hold me nerve and wait for bigger discounts. At the moment I’ve got the option of using my wife’s Powerfly HT while I wait. I guess the big question is, how much can/will manufacturers discount their products and how...

    Rail (625Wh) Rail 5 Gen 2 vs Gen 3?

    I’m looking to get myself a first e-bike. The only one I’ve ridden is my wife’s Powerfly 4 which is a size too small for me. The Bosch motor seems to work well and ive never had issues before with Trek kit so it seems sensible to stick with them. As I’m planning on going full sus, the Rail 5 or...

    Nice. I might need to pay a visit to the local Trek store this next week.
