I'm hoping they'll offer ep8 and shimano or YT battery option (if they adopt shimanos fittings for their batteries), or honestly just go all shimano. Lets face it most bike (and car) manufacturers are in the business of making chassis not parts. YT made their own battery because the aesthetic...
really depends on attitude of those you are riding with. My cousin is big into emtb's in theory we should get along but he's got a different philosophy on why he's riding. I'm pretty sure it would end in a big crash with some one hurt.
I've known my best friend/riding buddy since we were youths...
People are capable of self delusion to amazing degrees esp to a belief system. Fitness was a barrier to entry that made people feel special and the belief you had to be fit to be a MTBer. I can't remember ever going home because the trails were too technical. eMTB lowers that bar and threatens...
I use some cheap-ish ones attached to the kids bikes saves me shouting like a loon to get them to come back.
In the alps I bought £80ish ones (treat them as a one trip kinda item) them with my buddy to work out if he'd just got lost (again) or binned it. By far the best use was when he'd go on...
One of my favourite wood workers has a saying "past experience is not reliable predictor of future events". You may never need a helmet or ever crash till you do
My biggest accident was on a flat shared pavement cycle path we rode it every time to and from the park. I was wearing my full face...
Fully aware of 'nothing as fast as a hire car' its hardly a unique problem. I'm not specifically speaking about YT here either although they do have a demo fleet. There was a thread about another direct sales company on here, the guy was without his bike for months from the brand I was...
I thought it was my best bet at an emtb too the plan was Stilus + new fork which took the bike to about 3k and a little bit. But then I Saw the Canyon/YT cycle to work scheme with that 32% off for me for a few hundred more I couldpick up a sorted bike from a company that sell bikes.
I too have a burning desire for more info on the new models. However I think it maybe march 2021 given thats when they release this years bike (I think?) and chances are by then the EP8 might be released :/
I think this years Spectral/canyon were ment to have EP8 but the delays saw it ship with...
Some bikes come with USB port you could always try; Heated vest.
I wonder which bike manufacturer is going to be the first to offer heated grips/saddle.. can't be too far off. Oh what about a heated bag for my pret avocado panini.
My experience is much the same if you keep the water out you going to keep sweat in. Mud guards unsexy but will keep your under side much dryer and less caked mud.
A sweat wicking base layer or 2, no stuff that sponges water. Something wind proof for your torso. I have some water proof/winter...
no different if you had moved country.
They (the brands) might stop dealers selling to you. I remember buying my Super8, even though the shop was in the EU (sweden) they said they couldnt sell me a bike due to their distrubtion agreement.. I reminded them about free trade etc eventully the...
Still showing on the site for me? I've had all my figures and toes cross for a EP8 Spectral.. praying for similar colours
I dont know who but I heard one guy worked out it was cheaper to fly to the US with a junk frame and pick up his then new Foes Fly have a nice weekend and fly home than it...
I was just looking at rear cycle racks and this popped up for £10

I was thinking about this problem after washing my bike not so worried about the wife (although gone are my days of stripping the bike on the coffee table) but leaving it sitting damp dripping in workshop. Normally rinse - bounce it on the rear wheel - towel off, but it was raining that day. I...
