Zimmerframe how is your recovery?

I have experimented with a few... the best to date are RockBros 2018-12A Oversized pedals at 13.5x12x2cm, these give me phenomenal grip, however, I do have more pedal strikes when riding through narrow tracks.

I think it’s all about how much is it worth to you. I started with a modest budget bike of ~ €4800... I good hooked and now I want new one with better spec at ~ €7000. In my mind it’s worth every cent and I don’t see the need to pay any more than that... for now [emoji12]

Good call! You will enjoy it... especially with the US-market setting. When I ride with my analogue buddies I often turn the motor off-and-on (eco) to get better workout on a heavier machine. You are lucky to have ebike friends, you will not have to hold back or switch-off the motor unnecessarily.

What brake pads do you use? What stopping power results and what mileage are you getting? I had my OEM brake pads replaced after 800km and new set last just over 200km. The LBS told me they fitted a better quality pads. I am not convinced. The last 200km were in worse conditions, but 4x the...

It’s very well ventilated for hard riding!

New cable(s) for my new Derailleur. Come in a packet of 12 [emoji51]

@ZF, your hound looks very smug, he probably ate half of your French toast. Looks amazing... I have not had one for a while... I need to take a trip across the moat for the real thing!

Good collection: 2 x bikes, and ...?? [emoji1623] ?? 2 x flying carpets!

No No No! [emoji1630] If you go any further, you will tell me that I am riding a love-child of Hitler and Mussolini [emoji51]

Ducati TK01, I.e.: 1. Fonts and Colours by Ducati (EU) 2. Design and component selection by THOK (EU) 3. Manufactured in Taiwan (SE Asia) Now, my question is, what is the value of RnD, logistics & profit margin that Ducati and THOK make on this bike. If it’s 55% then it will be duty free. No?

Got myself a 7iDP Carbon. Great design, materials and finish... and fits my kopf perfectly. Now off to the woods!

Following this thread feedback I got a Charge Spoon. It is a little harder than my OEM saddle, but ergonomically correct... will test-ride this weekend!

Made some modern-art for my man-cave!

I am planning to import new bike from EU. I am told by the seller that they will sell it to me ex-VAT, as UK is now outside of the single market and I will pay local VAT in UK, on arrival. I was under the impression that there is no import duty from EU, as we have a ‘free-trade’ agreement.

7iDP Project 23 Carbon... ultra light and surprisingly comfortable... will test-ride over the weekend [emoji2]

This is what I bought for my ar$e.
