    Answered Rebound knob for a Manitou Mattoc fork?

    €20 is ok? Don't Probikeshop ship from France to UK? I use them a fair bit here and they're awesome!

    Unanswered What would eventually happen?

    This happened to me initially on long descents on my Tues DH bike, due to dragging the rear brake.... It would get to the point of having zero brakes, lever back to the bar, the only way to restore some braking other than a 30 minute rest was to pour water over the calliper and disc. Spoke to a...

    Brakes keep cooking?

    Bigger rotors should help, also is it mainly the rear that's cooking? If so you need to brake more with the front, I was guilty of this when I started DH, boiling the fluid, blue discs, always the rear, learnt how to use the front brake and bingo, no more problems.....

    Solo e biking. Who has an EPIRB or other safety device to call for help? What are you using ?

    Sorry for the late reply! Almost impossible to trigger accidentally, you have to lift a cover, press and hold the button and unreel the antenna for it to go off!

    Has anyone installed the Bosch 'small crank' firmware on their bike?

    Don't think you'll need it, went from 165 to 155 on my Decoy, and 170 to 152 on the wife's Lapierre, aside from it feeling a bit different, from a motor assist viewpoint nothing needed tweaking......

    Answered How to raise handlebars?

    You can't "add" spacers, only move the existing ones around, ie if you currently have spacers above the stem, you can reposition those under the stem to raise the bars by that much. If not, or that's not enough for you, then you'll need bars with more of a rise.......
