    Is anyone in South Wales?

    A bit far for me as I rely on bikes as my go to for transport. I could ask a family member to take me, but they wouldn’t be able to ride, so that might test their patience.

    Is anyone in South Wales?

    Wondering if I could meet someone or join a group sometime for an E-bike ride. I’ve only been riding bikes again since 2016, so bear that in mind.

    Join us! EMTB Forums UK Monthly Rideout - Sunday 1st July, Surrey Hills.

    Would love to come Rob, but I am in Wales. Maybe if you go to BPW again or something else near like Afan, I could join the group.

    Which dropper post?

    Yeah it’s a Haibike. On that model pictured, there is the XLC AllMtn telescope dropper. Is it any better than the Brand X (how do they compare)?

    Which dropper post?

    My E-bike didn’t come with one, and I have no idea what to get. I was thinking something foolproof and value for money. There’s this one on offer from CRC: Brand-X Ascend XL Dropper Seatpost | Chain Reaction Cycles Is this any good?

    Presta vs Schrader

    When I started riding as a kid, I wasn’t aware of Presta, just Schrader. I use Presta because that’s what my 2016 bike came with. Never really gave it much thought, as they are priced the same.

    E MTB as only bike

    I too am selling all my analogue bikes (got 3 to sell, two fat bikes and a hardtail commuter), and all the riding I want to do will be solely with my E-bike. Have become a bit of an E-bike snob: to be honest, I think everyone should have them, and seeing people enthusiastic over analogue bikes...

    For Sale (BIKE) UK-HAMPSHIRE - 2017 Scott E-Scale 920 Electric Hardtail - 1 month old - Includes Bosch Performance CX 2

    If you want to go a lot faster and convert any bike to an E-bike, then paradox kinetics do a throttle motor, called the Hermes. It’s 1500W. They’re based in Greece, and I got a quote off them for the entire conversion kit for £2350. I would urge you not to break any laws in your country, but if...

    Haibike Sduro Full Fat Six Riding Reports

    Riding report: decided to take it out even on the Well-Go pedals, for a test ride on some cycle paths. Blown away by how much fun the motor gives. I was busy cycling away, when my left pedal came loose (didn’t pre-ride check my pedals, D’oh!), and basically just fell off. It sheared some of the...

    Haibike Sduro Full Fat Six Riding Reports

    Ok, thanks. Next question: I was watching this video: And one of the guys from Haibike mentioned the battery had about 700 cycles in it. I was personally told 200 cycles. What I did notice, is the fact their battery doesn’t have a blue accent on it. Were they selling better, more reliable...

    Answered Rockshox Monarch RT3 PSI Settings

    So should I do 22.5%? What would be the difference between the two when it comes to the bike?

    I only have the full manual in German. Edit: checked fork leg, has psi weight guide, but is that just for the fork?

    E-MTB Myths

    What I really hate, is when someone goes on about how having a normal, super light XC bike and being really fit is the way to go uphill. The fact is I can go up higher inclines than even what people like that are capable of. Telling people it’s cheating is like them expecting to reach the...

    Answered Rockshox Monarch RT3 PSI Settings

    I was wondering what psi I should run on my shock, relative to my weight? It’s my first full suspension bike. Currently riding a Haibike Sduro Full Fat Six. I am at the moment, a portly 88kg.
