    jesus, that's quite heavy. fatigued is exactly where I'm at right now. I hope it passes over the next week or two. I've done a few circuits around the block today. First time I've left the house since getting unwell.

    Levo Gen 2 New Float X shock

    I'm about 86kg and have the 2021 300psi X2. I bought mine from Bikester which is EU based, but got it on offer, but I agree, the price is ridiculous. I will persevere with setting it up, I need more time. I've also just had a plaster cast taken off my arm and currently have Covid,, so...

    Levo Gen 2 New Float X shock

    Interesting comment about the X2. I'm a heavy rider and myX2 is on a Levo SL for mostly XC and trail,, and I have yet not found equilibrium with it. I may end up going back to the fox DPS.

    Who's had COVID?

    only mild after a few days of the first jab. I had the AZ vaccine. Felt a little run down. My wife had the same vaccine and had flu like shivers for 24 hours. We are both currently unwell with similar symptoms. Although my daughter has a positive result she seems full of beans. She had a...

    Review Wireless shifting: SRAM AXS / Cell-Cycling E-Link / Archer D1x

    answer my own question, found this on a Bike Radar review... Weight-wise, the GX Eagle AXS derailleur and shifter tip the scales at 545g. The same setup in GX Eagle mechanical level weighs 434g, while Shimano’s XT M8100 is a svelte 418g. For comparison, the same XX1 Eagle AXS components weigh...

    Review Wireless shifting: SRAM AXS / Cell-Cycling E-Link / Archer D1x

    Thanks for making the time to do this review. It's time consuming to do and helps keep the forum engaging. ? Anyone know how much heavier a AXS GX kit is compared to a eagle GX derailleur, cabling and shifter?

    Who's had COVID?

    started like a was getting a cold and maybe raw chest. Coughed just a little but not persistent. Then got a bit of a fever with shivering and sweats and with headache for about 3 days which have now gone. A little achy, but mainly feel now like I'm weak and I get the sweats if I do anything...

    Who's had COVID?

    Cheers for the replies, it's obviously a myth that once you're vaccinated you are covered. All I can say is, god knows what it must be like without antibodies fighting on your behalf. It started like I had a hangover, and then I thought I was just getting a cold and a raw chest. I did a...

    Who's had COVID?

    I'm rolling into my second week with the virus and it's spread through my household With wife and 8 year old daughter getting it soon after. Only my 4 year old boy is holding strong right now. I had my second jab in June, I most certainly brought this home from work ( I work in a High...

    Levo Gen 2 New Float X shock

    I'm starting to get fed up with top of the range Fox suspension as the adjustability is just so fiddly and over complicated. I spend more time twiddling the knobs of my X2 than riding my bike.

    Maybe you should be asking which bars are crash tested and are they tested/rated for downhill race use?

    Old blokes who should know better.....

    Jesus, that's a pain in the arse. I won't be riding out yet. All things on hold anyway as I'm ill with Covid, but will begin my rehabilitation by getting back in the swimming pool which I've missed as much as biking. Hopefully that will exercise my wrist.
