    E-escarpe VR upgrade suggestions

    Read up on crud protection posted by the above guys the rrp front mud guard on rear is a particularly good bit of advice as is the plastic flap in front of rear shock.

    Winter clothing

    Tbh i thought the mt500 was faulty as after reading the reviews i couldnt believe it had soak thru after 30mins. And the hood storage strip of fabric seemed too short and would cause the top of the back to fold causing the jacket too shorten at the back. I had another read and it offered 18000mm...

    Feeling overbiked on a longer travel eMTB?

    Hi mate I bought the VR in may and couldn't be happier. I thought long and hard on choice between the VR and Levo. (I have a 2014 stump jumper evo) My riding is probably more xcountry than anything else but with the VR its given me confidence to tackle much more difficult routes. I can't jump...
