    Focus thron

    You probably need to change the title of the thread to "Maximum allowable pressure in Fox Float dps" to get an answer. Only Thron owners will probably look at this thread... ;) The maximum air pressure should be written on the suspension unit somewhere near the valve. However, a quick squint...

    Haibike Creaking. Driving me insane (Video)

    That was my Focus Jam². A well greased axle bolt is a must on the Jam. The next "untraceable" creak was me having changed a broken seat post cable and reinserting the seatpost without greasing it first. (In my defence, it was intended to be a trial fit before getting all greased up and mucky...

    Importing Bosch bike to USA

    I was under the impression that it was set by the Bosch software. Why not email Bosch directly and ask them? https://www.bosch-ebike.com/us/service/contact

    Bosch Riders are LAZY !!!

    I ran mine right out when I first got it, just to test what would happen. It was a long time ago, but ISTR that it just flashed the Purion display a couple of times and then the motor stopped. I find that the final 40% disappears faster than the first 60% these days, but that could be that the...

    Which is the BEST sealant ?

    FTFY. (And, no, I didn't :ROFLMAO:)

    Bike maintenance I now know, and things I don't.

    Not wanting to teach you how to suck eggs, but just twisting the barrel on the gear cable is unlikely to do anything unless you have pulled it a little in the direction of the cable (pull the barrel adjuster along the cable, away from the gear lever). The plastic bit will then connect with the...

    Which is the BEST sealant ?

    Seems that stuff is only rated for speeds of less than 50mph. So no use for about half this forum who have derestricted their bikes... :unsure: ?

    Which is the BEST sealant ?

    I use Caffelatex too - mostly because I hate the smell of the ammonia based sealants - and find that I have to refresh it every 6 to 8 weeks. 'Course, that might be because we get a bit more sunlight on the tyres down here... Other folks around here use different stuff (we all have our...

    Bosch Riders are LAZY !!!

    @Zimmerframe : if you look really carefully, you should be able to find the recharge button on the motor which will add power to your battery when you pedal backwards... ?

    Germany has no Single Track - Here's Why

    Plenty of single track in the Taunus, around Bad Camberg, while I was living there (which is also Hessen). And also in the Drachenfels, which is in NRW, when I lived in Bad Godesberg. Was never aware that offroad riding on tracks less than 2m wide was illegal and I met no one who made a fuss...

    Can someone recommend...

    I haven't found better than FiveTen. Bought some for the missus, too, and she's well pleased with them.

    Riese & Muller Delite Mountain Rohloff - anyone had any experience with one?

    I'll agree there. The German touring bikes are the main focus and are very "Marmite". I bought my touring bike in England (and regretted it!) because I couldn't bear the thought of riding one of those old fashioned looking roadsters.

    Riese & Muller Delite Mountain Rohloff - anyone had any experience with one?

    Isn't that a function of Hamburg being nowhere near any mountains? Certainly I remember a vibrant MTB scene in the Taunus during my 15 years in Hessen.

    Riese & Muller Delite Mountain Rohloff - anyone had any experience with one?

    I enjoyed your review. One thing about the weight: that ABUS lock attached to the frame added 2kg all on its own! :ROFLMAO:

    Water bottle...with tube

    I try to avoid Amazon wherever possible. Mostly because my sister is one of their sellers and I know how badly she is treated. I would rather that the seller gets the full value of the sale rather than letting Amazon gouge out a massive percentage. I think that is why so many sellers seem to...

    UK "flow" biking.

    Sounds like my garage. Described by one of my mates as my "cave of broken dreams" :unsure: :ROFLMAO:

    Answered Are cheap Smart Sams tubeless ready?

    This link shows the Abdichtung as being Tube. If they were TLE or TLR then there would be a drop down box showing the alternatives. Edit: Just had a closer look at the Schwalbe website. If you scroll down you will see "Produktdaten" which gives the details for each of the models of Smart Sam...
