    Discounted Bike and parts Thread - cheap(er) ebikes & stuff

    Some good prices but worth checking as their SRAMM cassettes are 20% more that Wiggle, and you may have to pay import duty on top if shipping to the UK.

    Good idea thanks. Can anyone explain why you need to rotate the chain backwards? I have never understood why.

    What Have You Lost & found 🤔

    I lost an Endura jacket in June at Cannock Chase....,..it was strapped onto my back pack but obviously not very well. Great jacket, should be at that price....it was a forest green colour and I am currently without a jacket! I went back to look for it but got lost and missed the same trail...

    2023 Bikes with Bosch System Controller & Mini Remote

    It says the mini remote can be retro fitted. How does that work with the “new” smart system with the wired controller on the handlebar now? Is that redundant or does it move down towards the stem? Does anyone know or has seen one.

    Bosch gen4 - tour mode too strong?

    Yes you can but your dealer has to do it…..plug-in and 2 min job.

    Bosch gen4 - tour mode too strong?

    I know it won’t apply to this post but on the new Bosch smart system you can adjust Eco and Turbo assist levels yourself from your phone. …….and if you get Tour+ taken off you can adjust that as well. Maybe an excuse to upgrade your bike?

    Carbon Bars

    Has anyone got an opinion or recommendation for carbon bars? Do they stop arm pump on longish downhills. Are they better to absorb shock. Are they safe ? Thanks
