    Best flat pedals?? Opinions please

    Deity Deftraps and five tens and I'm as planted as I want to be. Haven't missed clipping in since going to this setup.

    3D printed Bosch Purion Centermount

    e-mailed you a while back, let me know if you're still making these.

    Would I notice the difference ??

    Bosch gen 4 to me feels far superior in every way to Shimano E7000/E8000, haven't ridden an EP8. Only thing I dislike is the purion controller on the bosch, feels like its right in harms way. Earlier gen bosch is more light switch like with more run over. Personally I wouldn't even consider a...

    What's wrong with 150-160mm forks?

    We have ebikes, why not have a little extra travel and a little slacker bike in most cases?

    Angleset on an Orbea wild FS?

    yeah that's the reason I haven't done it. Was considering a 1.5 thinking with the fox 36 it might be enough to squeeze by and clear it. if I do I'll post back and let you guys know. Also debating just going to a 170 travel fox 38 with stock angle 😬

    Angleset on an Orbea wild FS?

    interesting tactics.. I still haven't pulled the trigger but I'm super tempted. for the mostly flat trails close to home it's amazing as is but when I go where it's steep I definitely would like a little more stability. Maybe 1-1.5 is the way to go.

    Angleset on an Orbea wild FS?

    Did you end up testing the -1? I think I'm gonna order one for mine but not sure what angle to go.

    Bad backs & emtbs

    I've got 3 bulged discs in my back, for me the ebike is great. For me core strength is key, I find when I do damage to my back is when I get too tired and the emtb helps keep me from getting to that level of exhaustion. Again, core strength is key and knowing when to push and when not to in my...

    Do all (nearly all) Maxxis tubeless ready tires leak?

    Every tubeless bike I've had is a similar scenario, they just lose a little air and you check em every ride is the deal. Truthfully I think most of mine lose more than what you're experiencing.

    170 fork on Wild FS?

    I believe it would slack the head and seat angle something like half a degree, which with this bike being a little on the conservative side geo wise doesnt seem like a bad thing to me.

    170 fork on Wild FS?

    Just picked up a Wild FS H25, love the bike! Not sold on the rockshox 35 fork though. Looking to go to a zeb or fox 38, anybody bumped up the travel to 170 on the fork?

    Power input of the rider

    Resurrecting this to see if there is anything new in 2021, just ordered a commencal w/ ep8. My usage for a power meter is that I'm dealing with Lyme/cfs and overdoing it causes me to crash for sometimes weeks. Being able to put a number to my output would help me have fun ok my bike and stay...

    Meta Power SX vs TR

    Hi guys, not sure how many really have ridden them but I'm kinda torn between these two models. On one hand, the TR seems to be marketed as all about fun and sporty which I'm a big fan of, but wouldn't the 27.5 wheels on the sx also be nimble and sporty? Just a little tough for me to...

    Hi from MN

    Hey guys, looking to join the eMTB world. Coming from an MX background, used to be an avid XC biker as my favorite form of training. Ran into some health problems (lyme disease sucks) and haven't really biked or rode moto in 2 years. I've really struggled to get any kind of cardio fitness...
