Undecided on the bars until I get fixed and can put some real time on the bike. I like my bars width and shape much how I liked my motocross bars. The width is around where your arms are when you do a push-up and the angle (sweep & +/-) how your fists are when you hold your arms out at the...

The Tuned arrived yesterday. Still laid up with a back issue so only a nana rider around the block. Love the feel of the G4 motor though and while a tad noisier than my old Levo is not obnoxious and is quieter than the e8000 powered eGenius I had.

Bloody nagging nellies IMHO. Kind of funny that my post was removed as I have just finished over 24 hrs at a medical centre doing a complete network rebuild to facilitate video consultations and on 3 different notice boards were notices with pretty much what I posted - provided by the local area...

The WHO has dropped the ball so badly and so often with this that I am starting to ignore anything coming from them. Firing up a remote desktop server at one of my clients this morning they reckon most of that is actually helpful common sense info based on current info. If you don't follow...

Something interesting a friend in the states sent me - note the date. I kind of went ... WTF, why such a panic in March? We should have been preparing much earlier.

Oooooo - back-flip ramp

FFS - STOP with the preaching BULLSHIT. I was posting a FACT - nothing political about it. If you don't like it STFU or ignore my posts, but never try sermonising to me. World Health Organization (WHO) ✔@WHO Preliminary investigations conducted by the Chinese authorities have found no...

Fortunately, because a lot of the problem IMHO was the WHO telling everybody not to worry because China says Coronavirus isn't contagious. That kind of allowed propagation that possibly would not have happened if they were a lot more cautious.

Did someone say pie?

Not so much lighter, but just a better feel. I think a lot of the clanks and rattles that people complain about on the Bosch Gen4 are more to bad frame design. A couple little plates welded in the big hollow frame tubes and no funny noises. Water formed alloy tubes are great for reducing cost...

Shit Boi - if horses are talking to you ........ @Zimmerframe wants to know where you get you stuff from :whistle:

Not really. Carbon has a completely different feel to Alu. I would rather ride Carbon if I can't have Carbon Steel.

:LOL:

Some of your suppositions are based on flawed data so you are closing the field for no good reason. Having played on a few different 2020 models and owning a Scott (Shimano) and Speshy (Brose) I found the Bosch G4 noisier than the Brose but arguably quieter than the Shimano and a lot quieter...

Has 5 assist modes (I think including Walk) + EMTB. Seems to be something that is trending. I initially thought WTF when I got my eGenius but from talking to one of the Fox design team I was advised that the Trunion style shock gives better rigidity. Not too sure about that, but thinking...

Desperately waiting for my 900 Tuned. Was supposed to be end of January - then end February - now 9th April. With the NZ currently on a 4 week lockdown and me waiting for a back operation I don't see me riding it until late April or May - man am I starting to get edgy.

The Marzocchi are basically re-branded Fox forks these days I am told. Have to say, I am usually a Fox guy but looking at an unpowered Genius as a second bike option to my eGenius 900 Tuned and in a quick test I really liked the Marzocchis and the X-Fusion appeared to work OK.

Used my Twinlock quite a bit. Open gives a nice comfortable ride when cruising open trails with groups and when on my favorite trails into the middle setting. Only use the full setting when on a trail with lots of jumps. Yes was a bit of a nuisance on top, but having it on a Spark and a...

Never had any issues that cost me money when I had my Genius eRide 920 with the Shimano motor. Was only getting 40km out of a battery on the trails I ride and my dealer swapped chargers, battery and motor to see if things improved - all at no cost.

Me - if I had some sort of trainer. When your only bike is an ebike and you can't go outside there really is no choice.
