Sadly I don’t have a local seller of ebikes. But it’ll be fine, it’ll get sorted and not stop me riding.

Narrow wide? What is this new form of measurement?

I can’t be arsed to ship it back. I’ll sort it, it’s an alignment issue I’m sure. Also I’ve noticed I only use three gears, need to explore the range :)

One thing is my gears are still crunchy and slip. I’ve looked at the adjustment and the bottom and top align perfectly. Any ideas?

Did another ride to, through, and back from Mereworth today. Forgot to get any pictures. Did my first kinda extreme bit of downhill, tackled the jumps and getting more confident in the burms. I’m still crap at getting air. Getting more loose on the bike. Managed to ride through sections I...

Ahh man do I wish I still lived there! Amazing places to ride. Welcome.

Already been there. :) It was too busy for a noob and I didn’t want to run over any kids. The second time was full of motorbikes. Great trails though.

Took yesterday off from riding (sore arse) and didn’t charge. Today managed to go through two bars in 4 miles, so I’m guessing it takes some cycles for the management system to calibrate. Or the chart lies. Today’s ride was more chilled, just a 30 minute jaunt to get some air in me. Managed to...

Giant have a how to clean your eMTB video where they remove the battery and hose down the connectors and motor.

WD-40 isnt ACF-50, big difference. Also WD-40 isn’t an oil like so many think. Just putting this here for people who don’t know. ACF-50 is expensive but worth every penny. It spreads if left so a little goes a long way. Heat the bottle by putting it into hot water for 20 minutes before...

The other half has just ordered a bike!

Welcome to the forum? What’s with the bin bag?

Tredz were fine for me. Chain Reaction were amazing. E-Bikes Direct were awesome.

Went out this morning. Only about 14 miles but every inch was a challenge one way or another. Steep (STEEP) hills to climb, deep mud to tackle, rivers to cross, technical single track, and some burns and jumps. It was so much fun, came back and my girlfriend kept saying how smiley I was. Bike...

This forum will repeat FS until you give in and buy one. I did, they were correct. I want a HT analogue for when my fitness is ready for it, but on the ebike the FS makes so much sense.

What has cycling done to it? Before I bet too few into this stuff I need to know the consequences. OP, yeah you’ll be alright here. I’m also an ex biker with a buggered body. The ebike is a game changer.

It goes directly in front of the rider, behind the bars. Makes sense. Better balance and you can protect the child with your arms if needs be.

Now I have my bike and my son is going to upgrade to his second, my fiancé wants one. She’ll be riding light trails by the river, nothing too crazy. She will be fitting a front child seat though, so the front shock will need to cope with the extra weight of our quickly growing always hungry...

So my first real ride is complete. Wow! I only did about 8 miles because I kept having to get off to go through gates and the flies. The flies! So many, I won’t need to eat dinner. Plus it’s hot as hell and I have to be a dad tonight. The bike is amazing. It’s developed a noise on the rear...
