I have had one of these for decades, works great, bought another one about 5 years ago, also good. You can get them on Amazon etc for just over a tenner. Search Mini Grease gun.

They do fall over easily which is annoying but I turned up some bases...
Thanks everyone for the replies.
My worry is that they have been saying they have fixed the issues multiple times over the last couple of years. When I have test ridden one it has seemed nice, quieter and more powerful than my SL though with a slightly less natural power application. I also...
You're at 90% sag?!?!
That's not even close to being workable.
If you buy a new shock before you break this one then you should be able to sell it to recoup a lot of the cost but I don't think any shock is going to get the sag down to 30% kind of territory if you are really at 90 now.
I like to do quite a lot of drops and jumps that tend to bottom out the bike if I don't max out the volume spacers and put the sag down a bit so that's what I do. But I'm not a huge guy so it works for me.
Unfortunately there are very few options for bigger guys and especially bigger guys who...
Considering a Ride 60 equipped bike (latest motor). How is the reliability these days? I know there were a lot of problems in the past but have they improved? Would you buy again?
My current bike is a Levo SL and the motor and electronics have given me some problems but nothing that left me...
Sorry I don't have any useful info to impart but this is a subject I am interested in too but we would be doing the same sort of trip in early or late winter (late Nov or early March) to escape the rain. Any idea when the season is for this place and Ainsa/Fiscal?
Possibly should have provided this info at the start? I think you will find the current market split between full weight and light-weight bikes is mirrored in how people use the bikes. If you try to cater to everyone you will end up with a bike in no-man's land that no-one wants.
Personally I...
Again thank you for taking the time to contribute. Sadly I fail to comprehend how this super calculation would get me to the FRAME weight.
It was my intention to do a similar sum to get the difference in weight to the carbon one but to know what this is as a percentage increase is a little more...
I talked to the Gates guys at the Taipei show yesterday. Sounds like the MGU is a long way off being available to most OEMs. Pinion just working with a few German speaking brands initially.
Frustrating, but makes sense and I'd rather they took this slow approach and got it right than rushed it...
Thanks for the write up and I look forward to follow ups.
I've been very happy with the Squirt liquid wax. I fully degrease the chain in brake cleaner a couple of times then allow to fully dry and then absolutely slather on the Squirt.
Seems to work really well including in our horrendously...
Yes, that's the link I posted previously but I narrowed it down to full sus emtbs and there were only 13 and it didn't include the Whyte suggesting that there are others not on the list. Hence the thread.
The problem with this approach for a manufacturer is that you risk losing sales to people who want the latest and greatest who will go to another brand to get it.
