    House Insurance or bike specific?

    I used to use cycleplan but they were to expensive for two bikes so I transferred to my home insurance, as long as you can insure them to the same extent I have found it to be much much cheaper - about £200/year as opposed to £700/year

    Review Hope Ebike 2.3mm heavy duty brake rotors

    Review Hope Ebike 2.3mm heavy duty brake rotors

    I’ve not had much luck with the e-bike specific blue pads, the white ones are better imo and if you want to spend even more money and get better performance again, the CL vrx pads are the best I’ve used although the galfer purple seem popular for less money but I’ve not tried them yet

    Strive:ON problems

    Please, anyone reading this. Don’t use expanding foam anywhere on your bike. I’ll be generous and say that this was meant as a joke.

    yes, I do my suspension servicing too, the cost of the oil and seals is bad enough and those costs just add to the feel that running an emtb is just continuous wallet rape.

    Greetings from Canary Islands

    yes, it looked like it would hurt a lot.. I did a buggy trip out and felt like my passages had been sandblasted.. I think it would be nice to try and then great to get back to loam, or even mud and rocks :D

    Brake pad upgrade to increase power

    Ive tried a few different brands and compounds that they offer but the best I've used for noise, stopping power and wear rate are CL VRX pads.. expensive but well worth it..

    Shock Snobber - Rockshox Deluxe Select RS-DLX-SEL-C1 - Megneg or Tokens

    the megneg made mine far more usable and smooth, not perfect but I do weigh a lot with a linear sus bike.
