    So after battery failure I went out on my old bike.

    Kept my Camber as a spare due to injuries but will still use on off. If riding solo prob use the Camber but if with wife (when her fractured toe heals) will use haibike to stay with her Levo.

    Anybody off to the NEC Cycle Show this w/e?

    We went Friday, was surprised how much smaller it was this year. The stunt show was missing too and that was always fun to watch. Don't get me wrong was interesting to get hands on and close up with new bikes/ kit and will be after the new saddle from dmr, but was a disappointment over last year

    TRP Brakes

    Hi, The Allmtn 3.0 I have has TRP G-Spec brakes on, now the front are fine, but the back seem very poor. Have swapped to Shimano pads but not made any difference. Pressure is there so doesn't seem to be air lock just no stopping power. Would a larger rotor (180mm) make much difference ? Weigh...

    EMTB and Caravan

    We have no problems taking our van on sites, but is plain with no sign writing. Most sites wont let a sign written on. Handy to have a van so on site the bikes are out of sight at night and if you are just out and about not easy to get at the bikes in car parks etc

Me and the wife aren't fast, don't tackle the rougher stuff yet but we just spent Tues at Sherwood Pines blue in morning then at Clumber Park in afternoon getting off track in outer areas.

    Bad backs & emtbs

    Same here with disc damage, although can ride acoustic still I felt pain on climbs, particularily longer drags more than short bursts. The emtb does make a world of different, doesn't solve back pain of course but can ride a lot more without taking a day out afterwards aching.
