    What did you buy your ebike this week?

    Gutted I couldn't go on the first group ride jolly of the year with my mates today due to a back injury, Cheered myself up fitting some 160mm Rockshox Zeb Ultimate forks to my bike with custom decals from Slik Graphics They look awesome and 38mm stanchions really suit the proportions of the...

    Could I do a straight swap with these forks?

    In theory yes but you need to check several potential compatibility issues - If the axie to crown length is different then the geometry will change Is the steerer the the same i.e tapered , straight ? Is the steerer tube long enough ? Is the axle mount the same ? it could be quick release...

    What did you buy your ebike this week?

    Never been so excited about a part I didn't want to fit but I inevitably come across other trail users in Forest of Dean , I normally drag my brake or call out to announce my presence Thought I'd try this bell and be more PC Mate bought a Knog one for about £15 This one cost my £3.49 on eBay...

    Rear shock sizing question ??

    Apologies , missed the eye to eye thingy Brain fog just saw shorter shock and spewed out the above hollyhocks You are correct, same eye to eye = no geometry changes but less stroke does = less travel Sorry for confusion

    Rear shock sizing question ??

    It will change your geometry a little, slackening your head and seat angle by approx 0.25 to 0.5 degree, Lower your bottom bracket by about 5mm, shortern your rear travel by about 7mm depending on the leverage ratio of your suspension The bike would sit a little lower Imagine weighting your...

    Forest of Dean Trail info sought

    I'm not aware of any 'no riding" restrictions In that area apart from the wildlife sanctuaries There aren't any official blue Trails in that area but there's loads of blue grade stuff over there It's also a nice link up section between Dowies and the main Cycle Center trails

    Forest of Dean Trail info sought

    I think that may be the area known as Broadwell Bumps , just up the road from The Recycling Centre It's an official jump park , but it's quite small It has graded tabletops , jumps and bomb holes It's worth an hours playtime if you're in the vacinity but wouldn't drive there specifically...

    Tried out some Galfer 203mm discs today I really like them Plenty of stopping power , minimal noise using organic pads Easy to fit , just had to fit 1.5 mm spacers to the calipers as I was using 200mm discs previously No obstructions on the disc to clash anywhere , just a flat surface Less than...

    When do you finally learn to "look where you want to go"?

    I was ( and still do if I'm honest ) struggling with tight , hairpin , uphill , off camber switchbacks especially to the right Had some coaching and he recommended head way up , almost unnaturally high and looking way ahead , even further than the exit of the manoeuvre. Seemed weird at first...

    Levo Gen 2 Yet another Turbo Levo dropper cable question!

    Is it too late to use one of these ? Join old and new outer together whilst old outer is still in place and pull new outer though Unscrew joiner and bask in your own smugness ?
