Tested mine today, 6ft on a Large and it felt fine, better than my Orbea wild which is also L even though I’ve sat on XL on the wild and that fit better

Going back to the shop out of the question? I demoed an m10 and was blown away today! The Shimano motor is so much better than the Bosch Im West Yorkshire also, just been upto stainburn for a blast

The Halfords one is the closest I’ve seen to a ‘full’ range mtb wrench….. 4-40nm would be perfect, doesn’t seem to exist! I don’t really want to end up with two torque wrenches and I’m sure one must exist with the full range, what’s the point of us using a torque wrench on part of the bike, I...

Wondering if pads could make a difference here……so non squeaky but nice modulating

81km is mega!! To do this in EMTB mode is pretty cool also

interesting, I’ll avoid the finned pads in that case ? these were ones I’d notice from Uberbike, 6 bolt but should I end up with a Rise then I’m thinking of trying this kind of thing out. Shimano version claims to have upto 150 degree cooler than a typical stainless steel only disc….maybe...

cheers they also do finned discs too but didn’t seem to look quite as high build quality, I’ll check those pads

Anyone know the torque settings for the pedals and the crank? if it’s like 40nm what are people actually using as it seems every mtb wrench only goes to 24nm

Hang on, did these special Magic ‘notmarybutZimmer’ tyres have kinetic energy generation going on?? Dear lord you don’t use that satanic eco do you, blasphemy!

Just revisiting this as I needed to find the best braking comparison spreadsheet on the interweb for someone and I remembered a guy had put one here! ? MT7 have the power sure, but I’ve tried Saints also and they seemed to modulate nicer then mine, maybe variables ofc, I don’t even know if mine...

I’m tempted to try one of my ultra soft BB upfront since it’s 2.6 and stock the 2.4 mary on the back

Not sure on the tracking option, so you get mugged and ‘release’ the bike, so what next? You suddenly cry yourself to sleep and wake up a vigilante and go ‘retrieve’ your loved one? Police won’t even goto the address you have as they will just say they have tried before and ended up with the...

as you can see it’s very ventilated. This is number 1 for me as if it’s hot then your own air conditioning kicks in leaving you getting dehydrated and more prone to mistakes which is kind of ironic I think….. I also have the urbane action which is lighter, I thought I’d used for summer instead...

Avoid at all costs ?…..hey if your wanting to plough through loose wet mud and shite then this tyre will kick ass, it’s the magic mary big bro pretty much but rolling is terrible, I know someone who would sell me a pair of these for £40 and I haven’t….tempted to do just for an experiment though...

Looks sweaty to me…..even my knox urbane pro makes me sweat but it’s as good as ventilation gets, I literally wear just the top on it’s own these days as it’s too hot otherwise, the fabric is abrasive resistant and on the whole quite meshy in design so I tend to start with a shirt over it but in...

I would say and I’m sure @apac will agree that Schwalbe is good but check the weight of the maxxis and try to get similar; we have both moved to Schwalbe and noticed the roll resistance is worse off and they feel heavier. Maybe Magic Mary/Nobby Nic combo (for a do most things aright) or if it’s...

You didn’t get my point, I wasn’t meaning OTB offs, I’m talking the physical rider to bike fitting in relation to the bars etc, which if wrong probably does result in more offs in any case. From the feedback (various forums/threads) I’ve read riders feeling too close or being ’positioned’ more...

I get the impression anyone 6ft with a L is going to ’positioned’ more over the handle bars from what I’ve seen people say, fine for trails perhaps but if your hitting steep techs dh then it might not be as stable. On an XL it sounds like there is space to upgrade the shock better, I’ve...

That’s a great suggestion, a just giving page setup would be an idea wouldn’t it I wonder if there’s a non for profit way to build up an insurance business to cover us for theft of bikes….surely if everyone subbed £5/month there would be a way to cover albeit fraud prevention requires

I own that one also, 1/2 drive one but you’ve said ‘nearly all’ so what you going to do for the other ones beyond 20nm?
