Exactly this actually ?, that % is very useful however, you can also follow your GPX routes via the Kiox, it’s still not as good as your phone though or probably your garmin. Best thing is to just youtube it really, it’s all there. I’m In a similar position with a Kiox that I have to rubber...

Interesting, good luck with the sale ?

@Rob Rides EMTB This was interesting to me for various reasons, firstly the bafang motor was obliterated by the Bosch but how do you think the Shimano ep8 do on the rise would do, maybe you tested? Not expected a Bosch 85nm obviously but a 60nm Bosch performance at least.... Secondly it’s a...

Next challenge then would be finding the tyres, mainly 2.6 are like finding hens teeth....I think the Assegai is 2.5 isn’t it? But if you have this already that’s a great front tyre, I tried to find one to test but couldn’t, my original idea was to have wet / dry but that doesn’t quite work for...

Roll resistance is very real, I’ve seen videos where someone shaved off loads of time on uphill climbs, the tyres look bald in comparison to the monster truck ones we use with their smaller profile but I imagine they still do a job, be worth testing. Your Assegai is probably a great all year...

I still taste it I think! It mated with me......hard to revisit this Here’s the full fat version of the video, you get to enjoy seeing some agony in this one ?......first instinct was ‘FUCK!’ I’ve broken my back as my mid section all went numb, but my pal said can you wiggle your toes/fingers...

Jesus wept, this is probably the first time I’ve leapt to Gary’s defence as I’ve my fair share of ‘Garyisms’ if he’s had a little too much haggis on the day (he can also take a joke!) but this is probably the most snowflake response I’ve read for a while (not trying to offend) surely he hasn’t...

which gopro you using? I’ve the gopro 9 and it’s heavier weight is quite higher than a few other ones so just wondering if it’s a possible issue nice my first proper ride out was on a similar route to this, that climbs a killer if memory serves!

Cheers just seen ?

what I did many months after was join fb Orbea wild groups, if you search in those there’s first time buyers asking the same question and something like 8/10 at 6ft were saying XL and that the wild is weird with their sizing... but like you say you can make it longer perhaps, for me I tried...

I concur with @Mteam get the XL, I’ve been through this myself but after I bought the L, I end up riding with the balls of my hands on the bars during flats without realising like the bars should be an inch or two further away! Ive also tried an XL and I slotted in fine, I’m 180, it belonged to...

Interestingly I was sceptical about 2.4 vs 2.6 sizing, like was there such a difference and then I saw the packaging, so maybe not so much the tyre size but what’s in the tyre, my good lord! The ‘big’ one on the left is a Super DH big Betty 29 x 2.4 and the right is BB super trail 29 x 2.6...

It sounds that for your use the + tyres might be working well and if your getting used to it then it doesn’t matter what might be better in theory, if its working it’s working ? You won’t be alone in having sceptism regarding reviews, many of them need to endorse products to earn a living and...

From what I gather 2.6 isn’t a *new thing* they’ve been around for years. Here is a comparison written in 2017 using Reckon tyres 2.6 vs 2.8 and the 2.6 was more favourable. https://cyclingmagazine.ca/mtb/killing-the-plus-tire/ according to the above the 2.8 have these cons: - Poor rebound...

I’m no expert but switching lockout on its massively noticeable when riding uphill and helps on flats also which probably helps yours battery out also....wouldn’t say it’s a deal breaker though if it’s never been used during riding but I switch all the time, it’s fun when you forget dh too as...

Welcome, send me a DM I’m in Leeds next to LUBP and run a leeds group with 1.1k members so we should be able to sort a few adventures out! ?

I’ve had one for a few months now, been an experience for sure, a good one! If you can though maybe avoid the Rockshox 35 as I find them really stiff compared to other forks, sizing wise I’m find it’s one up also.

What’s your average KM ride? Ebikes don’t cancel out the performance of a good rolling tyre; instead of draining your human battery it drains your bikes battery so on XC maybe a Big Betty would suck where’s a Nobby Nic may do better. I know people who have had Eddie’s and had to change as...

Jesus wept! I rarely skip a thread but I’ve no idea what the discussion is about ? When your riding a 35 gold that’s hard as rock and have tried a fox 38 you soon realise your wheels must be square shaped! So I’ll take a Zeb, fox 36/38 or Lyrik, no questions, no research.....just ride that...
