    In praise of the Specialized warranty

    I thought that i would post to praise Specialized and leisure lakes for stepping up today, as I’ve now come to expect. in another thread I recently wrote the tale of a long walk caused by a nail going through my tyre and rim tape, cleverly defeating my tubeless ploy......drat and blast it...

    What did you buy your ebike this week?

    Hi everyone, lbs(leisure lakes, Preston) fitted my Tannus inserts today. So far after a few miles, im impressed. I got a pair of tubolito tubes to suit because I knew I’d get some anyway. Up to now ive noticed a pronounced difference on small bumps. Far fewer vibes/harshness. I tested on some...

    Ebike Conversion Kits

    Hi, yes different sizes of battery pack are available to suit requirements. They are carried in a pack. However the system is very light in terms of the motor etc, I think 7lb overall without battery. Motor is very powerful in use, about 450w nominal and 750w peak. Broadly it’s very similar to...

    What specific ebike parts are worth buying?

    The E Wild tyres and eddy current are going toward e specific. Ive noticed a situation lately that leads me to agree with your sentiments regarding e rubber. Namely, I recently refitted a tube in my rear wheel after months tubeless. My experience since, despite similar pressure has been...

    Confidence in your ebike ?

    I see what you mean. I'd rather pedal home on an eeb with insert and flat tyre or even the rim, Aaron G styleet, than any similiar situation on a manual steed. Get a model that pedals ok and its gravy really. Best of both worlds. Levo pedals pretty well too.

    50/60 maybe for a short while, you got us both beat combined at 80! However, she can hit max velocity in three strides.

    Maxxis hookworm looks good in 29. what about the minion SS? Sort of foot in both camps. Options and all that.
