    The newest new guy looking for winter gear

    I can recommend polypropylene tops - they're cheap survival gear that still works even when wet. They also dry in 10 mins while you're wearing them. I use them for mtb and bushwalking when it's wet and cold or just cold. Very light, thin and warm. I've worn them on alpine walks where it was wet...

    The videos you want Rob to do

    There is that for clockwork bikes, which should really be the same, or very similar. Entry level vs mid range and mid range vs super bike. After all, the e systems are a fixed quantity only differing between brands, so budget, mid range etc is really the bike without the e system. I really see...

    Levo Gen 2 220mm floating disc questions

    I think you will have trouble doing this unless you undo the port where more oil / fluid goes in. It's a sealed circuit so it needs an opening somewhere for the extra pressure to escape when trying to return pistons back all the way.

    Merida Battery Cover

    Where I ride, I know of two others with merida e160's that have lost their covers. That's pretty amazing considering there aren't many ebikes around here yet. Your fix might work; I'd rather be sure :ROFLMAO:. I took the Mr Bean approach.

    You're both being silly. I wonder why they didn't fit a nose gun? :unsure:

    Levo Gen 2 Raised Handlebars

    Does your shoulder ache from sleeping in bed? Both mine do :ROFLMAO: I try not to sleep on them, and it helps big time if you pull your shoulder down while in bed - pretend someone is pulling your hand down toward your feet.

    Who do I believe....Bosch Purion or Garmin?

    The bike probably measures speed and distance based on the circumference of your rear wheel - so many rotations to each km etc. Well, it's actually the outside circumference of whatever tyre you have fitted to the rear. Different tyres have different circumference. Even tyres with the same...

    Who do I believe....Bosch Purion or Garmin?

    Yes, and I'm not sure that gps takes into account climbing or descending when measuring distance. I think it just measures everything as though you are riding on the flat. Riding in flat country gps would be accurate; in hilly or mountainous country not so accurate.

    Chain vs cable for bike security

    The best we can do is slow them down to the point where they might leave for an easier target. With this in mind, what about a small but heavy (thick) padlock through the chain ring and around the chain, locking the chain to the chain ring. Some details - a reasonably tight fit will make it...

    [HOPE TECH3] 2 fingers levers

    Don't apologise - it's all good :); it's your bike. It's a pity you can't fit the magura levers. What about the longer hope duo levers?

    [HOPE TECH3] 2 fingers levers

    There are two possibilities for more leverage 1. longer brake lever 2. larger rotor. Can you fit larger rotors?
