Can you still run the tyre tubeless with the Tannus or does it need a tube to work ? Is it available for wider 2.5 tyres.

Hi Kenny I've asked my Bike Shop, where I bought the bike, to get me a Hope headset.....they are fitting it later this week so thanks again. G.

There was preview inhttps://ebike-mtb.com/en/first-ride-review-2020-trek-rail-9-8/and here's the spec they gave. Trek Rail 9.8 Frame material: Carbon Motor/battery/Display: Bosch Performance CX, 625 Wh, Purion Fork: RockShox Lyrik Select Plus, 160 mm Shock: RockShox Deluxe RT3 RE:aktiv Thru...

Just checking the Rail spec and it seems they all have 180mm rotors. Most comparative makes use 203mm. Is there a reason for this? I'm sure the brakes work ok with those callipers. Would there be an overheating issue?

Thanks Kenny for your advice on this. At weekend I noticed rust streaks on my frame and when I released the forks the bottom bearing was in pieces and very rusty. I called a local, and really helpful LBS who said he hadn’t got a bearing the right size but suggested I put loose ones in that he...

I am a similar size and was looking at the Large as well...so thanks for confirming. G.

Hi P3eps What frame size did you buy...why height are you?

Hi Kenny That does sound like the correct bearing and the same one Chain Reaction gave me when I asked them before I posted. That is a sealed bearing and mine is a cage. Do you know if I can that fit that in the original races or do they have to be changed to fit a sealed bearing ?

I have a Cube Reaction Pro Hybrid Pro hardtail and want to replace the headset bearing which are pretty bad. I am trying to source new headset bearings as the existing but nobody seems to know what they are and are asking for a bearing code. The only ref I have is FSA Orbit 5BZS 1 1/2" (o/d...

Great looking bike!

I have a Cube entry level hardtail and upgraded the forks a few months ago to Rockshox Judy’s. I noticed rusty streaks coming from the headset after washing and after checking the bearings look rough. They are open caged bearings. Can I replace them with sealed bearings? Is it just a straight...

I had a couple of punctures last year with thorns but none since I went tubeless with Stans last year. Someone said that they found numerous thorns in their tyre but they sealed themselves. I wondered about carrying a tube but thought that if the tyre had lots of thorns fitting an emergency...

Is your wife happy on the carrier ?

The farmer behind us used a contractor a few years ago as our hedges back onto his fields. He used a 12" circular saw blade on a tractor, which ended up 50yds away from the hedges in our garden....we keep our heads down when we see him... Nice clean cuts though..

Cyclemeter (iPhone App) can send emails of your route as you ride...so long as someone is interested !

I bet it will.....looks the best out there at the moment. It would be great to hear what you think after a few rides.

I'd really like to know what you think......have you ridden one or compared it to the 9.7 or 9.8 ? They look brilliant but I haven't seen one for real yet.

Which Rail ?......can you post what you think of it ? Thanks G.

Thanks for the replies...it doesn't have to be Cheshire...UK will do!

Has anyone done any skills training or coaching courses in the UK ? have you any recommendations suggestions or opinions ? Thanks G.
