630s are mega bucks. Plus you have to remount the battery holder everytime you change between 630 and 500. I’d just get another 500 and have 1000...
or send it back and get an elite, which is nearly the same price as a comp+ 630 batt
Well I was promised 23rd September would be very last delay.
That came and went.
I’ve cancelled my order and bought an instock megawatt. Couldn’t be happier. At least I know if I need to warranty the frame It won’t take 10 months to be sorted out.
Enjoy your Marin’s guys, over and out.
Yea I know, sorry.
I looked everywhere for an alternative 66 headset solution and couldn’t find one.
i’ve even messaged Rick at Works components so see if he can make anything...
considering AXS for the first time and sticking eyelets on frame for external routing of rear brake. Then buy a new too cap and drill a tiny hole for the electric wire. But thats a £1k solution to fix that fuck up of a headset
i might glue on a few eyelets on so I can cable tie my brake externally. I hate internal even on a normal bike but this extra faff would not be welcome.
Also thinking of putting AXS on as well, and then the only cable going into the silly headet is the electronic one for the display. I can...
Yea I’m the same, been told end of September now. But I can get a similar spec Nukeproof Megawatt for a similar price in like, 3 days, so this is their last chance. Part of me thinks just go with the megawatt because spare parts will be a lot easier to get if something goes wrong. If the...
What an absolutely crap system.
with my ebike there was no leaflet / sticker / anything to tell you how to remove. I naturally turned the bolt anticlockwise, not much force either, heard a snap, and a tiny little piece of cast metal fell out.
lock seems to work ok but now I’m paranoid the...
Thats really good news that an air can livens up the suspension - I had hoped that would be the soluntion to some of the negaitve review comments. Possibly a progressive spring for the coil would do the same. I think this is inherent of the suspension design as I found it difficult to hop a...
E2s headed for UK have beed delayed again, no surprise. Apparently the container ship has been diverted elsewhere and they will transport them by road from there, so we’re looking at end of sept now....
Sweeeet!
Be interested to know if an air shock suits this bike better than coil. Some reviews complained about the stock coil shock, saying it needs more rebound than the shock offers - air might be the way forward to make the suspension curve a bit more progressive
this is the first time that we have got to a month and they have said yes still on track for this month. Normally it gets to the month and they say, ah, 2 more months. As they are turning up in Aus, I’m going to give them one last chance to deliver in Sept, or I’ll order the new Rocky Mountain...
Ah man, you lucky bugger!!!!
Looks amazing.
hurry up marin!!!
if they could just say, right definitely october then I’d get my head round its the fact every month comes they say next month....
please post your first reports.
very interested to find out if you find it poppy like some reviews...
