11000ks in 3yrs 2months on 1 bike, 500ks on my other in 4 months. Would be more the last couple of months but so much bloody rain. Our trail networks have been constantly closed.

Always listen to music, don't enjoy riding as much without it.

Another shit question but I have to ask. The rear through axle. Do you need an Allen key on both sides to tighten and loosen? My other bike has a through axle which tightens and loosens from only one side.

I'm 6`2“ and went the s5 but shortened the stem as it seemed too long 🤷

So does this tick tick tick sound like the motor is on the way out. It's not the seat as I've tried a couple of seats. Maybe the dropper post?

I have 2, a norco VLT, 3yrs old 11000klm derestricted 32k/hr. It's my do it all bike, I'd sell it but it's a bit of a Frankenstein so doubt I'd get much for it. If the weather's shit or I'm just exploring, commuting this is the one to ride. I have a new turbo Levo for the trails when the...

I've got sram G2's rsc with 220 magura rotors front and back on my sight VLT and they are awesome. I've got sram code R's with 220 front and 200 rear sram rotors on my Levo and they suck. The 220 rotors do make a different and I find the thicker rotor helps too.

I think you may be into something here. I thought the seat was tight enough. Grabbed out the torque wrench and tightened to 8nm, so far just using my hands I can't get it to crack. Will take it for a spin once the rain subsides and see if it's done the trick.

I can't deal with the sound as it sounds like the cranks or the motor is dying.

So I had a wtb volt seat steel rails on my emtb, first 2yrs were pretty good then it started to creak and crack so I replaced it with another wtb volt but this time a cromoly rails which is great comfort wise but it's stuffed after a month. Any suggestions on a solid seat that can put up with...

Nice upgrades but bro... That colour scheme.. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder

2 weeks ago I rode over to gap Creek not knowing it was shut. Pipeline is popular there and it's on the other side of gap Creek road away from rocket frog and dingo. It may be open but I didn't check. Ironbark, all trails are open and I ride it frequently. I love it there and would offer to...

Castle Rock may be an option as its over Augustine Heights way. Depends on how long you have the bike for, if it's only for the day, that's a bit of a hike to castle Rock and back to epic cycles. Mt cotton is probably the most popular and highest rated trails in the Brisbane area, it's also a...

Looks like still closed https://www.borra.org/brisbane Where are you staying in Brisbane? as ironbark is a good alternative network if you need somewhere to ride on the northside.

I did my left one about 9yrs ago. I Just let it do its thing and managed it by pushing off on my right leg, it healed OK, never was 100% but never gave me grief. I was never into running but I played a bit cricket so short stints of running and for the most part it was sweet. Last year I did...

Thanks, I've now started trawling the forums. Going to be pissed if this is going to cost me a bit. What a shit design, my norco has a rubber bung and it's never fallen out in 3 years and is the most basic design

Anyone lost their battery door. Just came back from a quick blast and the door is gone. Doesn't look like it's broken it just looks like it's fallen off.

A 35mm 10 degree rise funn stem for my s5 Levo. The reach was a tad too long with the stock stem but so far this feels much better.

I use gorilla tape but as mentioned when it's time to change the tyre it usually snags on the tape and you need to redo the tape from scratch. My biggest gripe is always the valve, if I get a leak it's always around the base of the valve. Now i flip the wheel with the valve pointing down with...

I may have gone the other way and oversized. For the past 3yrs I've ridden a VLT sight L with a 470 reach. I'm 188cm and it feels a touch small but I've made it work. I've now got the s5 in the Levo and it feels a touch long, when I first get on it feels sweet but after about 30mins it feels...
