    How sticky.

    Been seeing five ten for years but could never justify or afford really..are they worth it ? Tempted to grab a pair rather than my old trainers

    First ride on the 160 and....oops!

    my battery range is superb which I wasn't expecting given my weight and how unfit I've become,but I do purposefully try to be sparing with it..love mine as you can probably tell,its just so hard to find the time to get out on it..work is sooooo busy at the moment

    First ride on the 160 and....oops!

    I find my brakes brutal,I've never owned a bike with this spec to compare in all fairness..ive only ever owned budget hardtails (£1000range) Now that saddle is shocking,might aswell be metal ? bars feel okay to me considering my last one was the carbon joystick which were wide but flexy,didnt...

    what tools did your 160 come with

    Picked mine up from store,comes with zero extras unless you buy them..online buying may be different,ill assume they'll send only what is needed to get your bike rideable....the bare minimum

    Hi All, newbie would like advice

    You need to provide as much info about yourself and the type of riding you do..my single piece of advice would be go to the nearest local dealer with a good reputation.youve got a decent enough budget to get most branded bikes.ride as many as possible then decide or comeback here and ask opinions

    140 vs 160

    Great decision but not to sure on the ladies thing ?

    140 vs 160

    I'm similar weight,and this has zero to do with your choice here in my opinion..i think I've said it a million times,i 100% prefer the 27.5,feels so much less like a boat,the extra travel is 20mm,maybe slight geometry but that means diddle squat to most of us..160 all day

    Buying a bike that rides great but looks horrible

    I agree, i wouldn't of bought mine in another colour even,it just looked completely different.sounds strange even typing it but it's just how I feel

    Buying a bike that rides great but looks horrible

    Its a good question,I personally wouldn't buy a bike I didn't love the look of...no matter how good it rode..just my opinion

    Proud to be a noob

    I was in a very similar position only a month or so ago,the bosch gen 4 motor is superb In its 75nm form,i can only imagine its latest 85nm update is even better..rips my big ass uphill and covered 30 miles with lots to spare..13m turbo to 28miles eco remaining,very very impressive...good luck...
