I did not know this! I am off to try this immediately. :ROFLMAO:

Sometimes the only way to align he caliper properly is by eye. The loosen bolts, hold brake on and tighten thing almost never works for me with Magura brakes.

My every day bike is a P2 Privateer 161. It has 470 reach and 440 cs. My medium Decoy is 430 reach with the same chainstay. The internet would likely tell you this means it won't handle well. In fact it's an absolutely brilliant bike and I'm nearly as fast on it as I am on the daily. So, reach...

Picture Bike / Product Year: 2021 Manufacturer Rockshox Model Lyrik Ultimate 29er/170mm/42mm offset Asking Price 450ono Location Innerleithen, Scotland Description Bought November 2021. Serviced May 2022 and then replaced with 38s. Some marks from mudguard rub, but overall very good...

It has been an amazing summer, I've never seen so much dust in the Tweed Valley. I am now desperately trying to adjust to the conditions, but having fun in the process. I actually love night rides, so looking forward to that too. It seems like a distant memory, but it was only a few months...

Can't quite tell if this is a serious post. Having reduced fitness (for whatever reason) is not a prerequisite to owning an emtb. Full fat works best for me as my ebike rides are typically done when I have limited time. That means turbo up the climbs and get in as many laps as I can. The...

Because then you don't need the bike stand. I use the allen in the chainring method. I wipe the chain with a rag after cleaning. It takes all of 30 seconds.

Sounds like you need to adjust your limit screws and possibly b tension.

Probably my favourite combo ever was: WTB Verdict Light/High Grip WTB Judge Tough/Fast Heaps of grip and lasted ages. Also, I really wish other manufacturers would adopt such a sensible naming convention.

Privateer 161. Has since been swapped to a coil shock. Still running it as a mullet.

Picture Bike / Product Year: 2022 Manufacturer Fox Model X2 Factory (230x62.5 - Bearing End) Asking Price 500ono Location Innerleithen Description Superb condition. Just back from a service at Fox (have paperwork) and not used since. Less than 20 hours use before that...

Or until the X2 explodes!

Not sure where you originally got your EXT from, but the Mojo guys are an absolute pleasure to deal with. Definitely worth doing.

Well since we just sold our camper van, I bought the GX AXS from Certini. Should arrive today. For the manual bike though, not the eeb.

If it's cool I tend not tbh. I just prefer the feeling.

Definitely! A lowers service is dead easy to do. I've never tried to do a damper service myself though.

I once ran a bearing mount MRP Hazzard on my Starling Murmur, which was just standard mount. To do it, I got a local guy to machine up some aluminium spacers (about £10). Worked perfectly. Might not work in this case, but thought it worth mentioning.

If it's of any interest to anyone, I got a new Factory 38 for my Privateer. At 82kg riding weight, Fox recommended: 97psi 5LSR 4HSR 5HSC 10LSC The fork came with 3 tokens. In this setup it felt extremely firm, with a lot of feedback and I struggled to use full travel. Now running: 91psi...

Unfortunately this is very common with Maxxis. You might not even notice when riding, but I would ask the dealer to replace it. I had the same issue on a Decoy. YT just sent me a replacement tyre and asked me to send the old one back.

Interesting! I thought it might be something like the Oak Components levers, but it's the whole body.
