    did you order a bike and are still waiting? what's the holdup?

    To put it simply it’s a global shift in spending and habits overnight and workforces being sick and/or locked down. Nobody is traveling redirecting those billions/trillions into other stuff like bikes and other goods. Lockdowns around the world have caused ports to get jammed up meaning the...

    BLEvo Game Over (with MasterMind TCU)

    Is it actually illegal? I’m no lawyer but I don’t see what would be illegal about it. Encryption protocols are generic nothing special there. Buy hey if you don’t want to risk it I totally understand.

    Hi from New Zealand

    Mostly, although I would like to do more trail. But I have zero interest in “earning” the descents ?. I’m perfectly happy to turbo up and bomb down. Where you ride @jaselikebikes ?

    Hi from New Zealand

    Nah the full Kenevo. Unfortunately just got word from the shop That it is now arriving in Feb and I have given up waiting. Picking up a Levo comp alloy in October now. Little bit gutted but the gen 3 Levo geo looks pretty similar to the Kenevo anyway

    Was anyone on here a full blown ebike hater who converted?

    Is that an ebike problem or a COVID problem? It sounds like you just have a problem with inexperienced riders and there has been a massive increase in people picking up the sport? I get how thats bloody annoying. You know your problem is that you are just riding trails that are too easy? Pick a...

    Yeah and that totally makes sense. As they say in the tech world: having 2 is 1 and 1 is none.
