I agree. Google "Rosenberger connectors", or "Rosenberger distributors"

Don't try the disco inferno on these! The XT and below are steel backing plates. Hmm just thought, not sure about the fins on the XT finned pads.

Just unlucky!

Which motor does it have, the e8000 or the EP8? If its EP8, it's on the side of the motor. If its e8000, I think it says Shimano.

I'm assuming it's Shimano gear, seeing as it is not the latest Merida. This may vary with the exact model, but many similar systems work the same way. Power up the bike, so that display is on. Press and hold the button that you use to change the display. This will bring up a menu. Scroll up or...

Yesterday I decided to do a particular off-piste trail in the opposite direction. One steep climb has a root in the middle of the trail and I found that it was best if I went to the left of it. As I was descending and thinking to myself how different everything looks, I recognised the root and...

@Rickster I would have turned round at the first sight of any of those trail pictures.

Wait until you are over 70, and become death on the roads! When you get to 70, your driving license is automatically revoked and you have to reapply. Yiu have to reassure the DVLC that you are sound and without any debilitating conditions and that your eyesight is still good enough to read a...

When buying a bike (car or other similar sum), I always look at the options. Are they offering a low finance rate, or even zero? If they are offering zero, how much will they reduce the price by if I pay up front? I once got 10% off! Notice my use of "up front", I did not say cash. I could pay...

Your efforts will be recorded. The odometer that records total distance covered is the one that I hope is unalterable. You can reset the trip each ride, or whenever you like, weekly if you want. I keep a log of the bike, how far I've gone, what parts I've replaced etc. That way I know how long...

I just followed that and got scores of them all sold as a "bell". I got scores of rubber ducks for mounting on bars, all sold as a "bell". Has anyone actually bought one yet?

Love it!

Put a plastic shim in between the piston and your screwdriver.

Impressive!

I still have a badly bent Shimano mech that I have straightened the best I can. When compared with the new one it looks spot-on (but I know it won't be perfect). I was in a rush so I didn't have time to fit the old one and then check it with the alignment gauge, so it's still in a box waiting...

@Husky430 Did you undo the screw on the brake lever to allow the brake fluid to move. I also screw in a syringe into the fitting so that I neither make a mess nor waste any fluid. To be absolutely certain not to suck any air in, add a bit of fluid to the syringe. As long as the pistons are not...

@Jackware Funniest thing I've seen for a week or so. Really good! :ROFLMAO:

When fitting a new chain, don't throw away the old one until you have tested the new chain/old cassette on the trails. If the new chain slips under power, the cassette is too worn to take a new chain. Put the old chain back on and run them both into the ground. You now have time to search out a...

Welcome to the Forum! :) I sincerely hope that the miles covered cannot be set to zero (or any other figure) else however can you trust the bike to be as declared?

@Semmelrocc With a bang to the mech like that you may get some shifting problems that prove hard to track down. Your usual Black Magic does not work. You have bent the mech or the mech hanger in a minor way. Minor maybe, but sufficient to cause problems. Use a mech hanger alignment gauge and...
