    Let's talk helmets...

    The Bontrager i have in this pic is by far the slimmest helmet i have owned or tried on but it's at the expense of side impact protection. After a crash where the side protection barely saved my head from a rock, i bought a Bell 3R (mega mushroom on me), Giro something or other (not as bad at...

    Not on the Italian site i ordered from. All good, i'll just buy the other one if this isn't right:) Now all i need is for some dry, sunny weather so i can get out and ride the thing! Been pouring all week in Sydney :(

    There are 2 sides? I didnt see that mentioned when i bought mine so i guess its a lucky dip for me lol. If its short ill get a cable done up. In the meantime i played with my position of the seat trigger and its on the right side up top but kind pointing flat. I used it yesterday for a run...

    I've only had 1 bad one on a black trail. It's a catch 22 where if you ride quick, when it happens you're gunna have a bad time LOL. Sydney black trails are generally crazy rock stuff so the crashes generally bust people up. Anyhoo it's something on my to do list: not crash :)

    GoPro Hero 7 Black

    45mbps for youtube for 4k output. I've got cameras that output 380mbps and i output 45mbps for youtube. Social media quality makes camera quality somewhat redundant. Vegetation is the hardest on codecs. You then add us on MTB belting through vegatation and it crumbles under compression. Add...

    The E7000 controller looks similar to the controller on the Giant Trance ebike where its more on top of the bars. Im not to sure about having the buttons on top as my last whopping downhill crash destroyed everything on top of the bars. Not something id want to repeat but i like the E6000...

    Argh sorry i read the thread a while back and didn't flick back. I saw Basy's posts on page 2 now and i just ordered the E6000 controller...... and then i see Bob's picture above and it seems one can fit. I think the E6000 controller setup is probably more ideal due to my limited movement in...

    Got my 900e in black gold and had it out riding for 3 days. I had it mounted using the sea sucker bomber :) What are the options for changing the dropper post lever? It doesn't look like there is any space for a lever so do i change the mode shifters to something else so there is space?

    Turbo mode, how much do you use it?

    I did some long shuttling in boost yesterday. I have the 2019 Merida 900e (shimano motor). In boost each shuttle up took me 13mins, roughly 15mins down then back on boost to shuttle up again. I did 4 back to back runs in 24c weather all on boost and i did not get any cut-off or heat warning...

    I have just joined the 900e club with the black and gold colour. I went to grab a burger and chips for lunch and saw this in the bike shop across the road so i bought it. I rode it for 2 minutes on the grass. No idea what it is like on a trail. Haven't ridden an eMTB before. I bought a second...
