    What tires are you running this winter?

    I've been running Michelin Wild Enduro (racing line) for the summer, and last winter I had a pair of Specialized Cannibals on. I've had Wild's on for a few years now (on my 4th set), but the extra reassurance of the Cannibals was welcome. A bit heavier, but they made a big difference on slippy...

    Review SRAM AXS Pod Rocker Upgrade

    The left hand one is available soon. That's what I potentially need to turn my existing POD into a dropper / Garmin remote. That link has the word POD in it, but the rest of the description and picture look like it's a paddle for the old style AXS controller. The new one doesn't need a pin or...

    Review SRAM AXS Pod Rocker Upgrade

    I got the whole thing (RH version) from Swinnerton. Got shipped yesterday, due to arrive on Monday. £127.50, but got £5 off with a discount code.

    Review SRAM AXS Pod Rocker Upgrade

    I've used all 3 variants of AXS controller so far, so thought I'd give this a try. I recently learned that I can use a button on a POD to control my Garmin... so I've ordered a POD with right handed rocker to replace my existing POD, and plan to put my 2 button Ultimate POD as my dropper /...

    Devaluation/current state of the market

    Speak for yourself... each car I own gets crappier and crappier MPG!

    Devaluation/current state of the market

    You say that, but there's often people selling well used bike shoes in the classifieds here... and at decent money too. I'm not sure if anyone buys them though 😂

    Devaluation/current state of the market

    I don’t expect to get anything from a laptop after 5-10 years. I don’t think 5-10 years is what the OP is talking about. If you bought an Apple product on launch day, and sold it 6 months later… you’d probably get a 80%+ return on it. Apple products hold their value very well as Apple...

    Devaluation/current state of the market

    I too buy my bike to ride it… but as someone who likes the latest model, I’m usually updating every couple of years. When buying something new out, you rarely get a decent discount on it, so are usually paying not far off the RRP. My last update was from the Levo SL 1.1 to the Levo SL 1.2...

    Kenevo SL Official 2022 Kenevo SL (KSL) Megathread!

    I’m still doing it with my 1.2! Unless the people I pass are deaf (or have loud music on), they’re going to hear my bike! I almost feel like I’d be better passing them at 100% and at least pass them quickly 🤷🏼‍♂️

    Oakley Prism Trail

    I'm a Jawbreaker man too, and have been wearing them for the last 7 years. Looking at the lenses online, I think I have the PRIZM Road, rather than the Trail version. Not sure the Trail version existed back then... but it may be something I need to invest in! I bought a cheap (non Oakley)...

    Anyone recommend a decent value low range torque wrench?

    This is the one I use for most things. 4 - 20Nm.

    On another note - Norbar are part of the Snap On group... https://www.norbar.com/About/Company-Information#:~:text=Our%20Larger%20Family%20%E2%80%93%20Norbar%20is,that%20Norbar%20was%20founded%20on.

    Anyone recommend a decent value low range torque wrench?

    It looks awfully like it. Their model naming structure is the same, and they look the same except the colours, and the Halfords ones have different handles. It'd make sense for a British company to make Halfords own brand.

    Anyone recommend a decent value low range torque wrench?

    I've worked for an instrumentation company for over 20 years now. We're mainly servicing the oil & gas sector, but also pharmaceutical, manufacturing, distilling, aviation and transport (amongst many others). We deal with many of the main brands of toque wrenches (Snap On, Stahlwillie, Facom...

    Other Levo SL gen 2 - power settings

    I ride mine mainly in 15/30 - I have that as my Trail setting. My Eco is 5/10 (for emergencies, or riding with analog bikes) and my Turbo is 100/100 for those times where I need a boost up a tough technical climb. I wanted an eMTB for a little bit of help. I had a FF for a few weeks, and then...

    Kenevo SL Official 2022 Kenevo SL (KSL) Megathread!

    When I first swapped, the noise between the 1.1 and 1.2 motors was huge. I ride with airpods in all of the time, but usually in the transparency mode so I can hear what's going on too. I'm not sure if my 1.2 motor is getting louder, or whether my tolerance is becoming less. I think I might...

    Here’s how to do it, if anyone is interested! The first and only time I’ve ever used the “shortcut” app!

    Uploading photos

    I think the site has an upload file size limit of about 5mb. Now your phone has so many megapixels, the files are bigger and bigger. I’m on an iPhone and made a “shortcut” to resize my photos. I click on the photo, and choose “resize photos”. It asks me how many horizontal pixels I want, and...
