When you're using the crossbar the weight is split between the seat and stem, it's also rubber and I find the cables tend to not be at the point that supports the weight anyway. Plus hydraulic hose is quite tough, I've not had any issues using one.

It hasn't, but it's easier to know which one is being referred to.

What made you buy it in the first place if you were happy with your current bike?

Can ring and enquire, see what they advise.

Unfortunately they are notorious for creaking. However it can be sorted, a case of tracking the source and sorting it.

How did you pay for them? If you used card I'd begin a chargeback transaction against them, you definitely have enough evidence to pursue it.

For the sake of £20 it's piece of mind. A dropper post is a minimum of £100 up to £400+. Just not worth risking it. Also it's much easier to balance and position the bike using a false crossbar. Each to their own though.

Halfords, was about £20.

False crossbar every time. It cups the headset well, I didn't notice any undue pressure on the wires.

I think the standard response to this is for people to state a different argument from the one you're making and then prove it wrong... Despite that not being what is discussed😂

Looks like 200 were the sweet spot.

I can't believe some people refuse to accept the truth, the mental gymnastics to avoid admitting they are wrong is staggering 😂

30 miles , 6,000 ft in race mode? Do you weigh about 50grams? 😂

Might sound strange but check all the bolts at the rear. I found a strange clunk was happening and it was the derailleur hanger wasn't quite tight.

Brand snobbery by the sounds of it😂 Must be a dentist😝

I think a harder compound on the rear will be fine personally.

I did/do the same, easier to control a rear slide than a front one so I'm more rear bias. The rear tyre takes a beating when being used as an anchor and on a soft compound it'll wear the rubber down quicker especially if you're on more rocky trails.

Dragging the rear brake too much?

Only reason I'm keeping my old analog bike is for uplift days. Still not done any though since getting the e-bike 😂

Nice one!!
