I fitted a new slx cassette with a chain that had done about 200km on a worn Deore cassette and the shifting was awful until id done about 10k with it.
Don't know if it was a bedding in thing on mine but the more miles I've done the better its got, now its really good.
p.s your cassette does not...
1500km on my first chain (KMC), and still on the deore 12s cassette at 2500km. Have got a 12s slx cassette ready to fit when required.
Bike is Giant trance,
Hey all, anyone had a professional bike fit set up done on there emtb?
Ive been riding now for about 18 months and as my rides are getting longer (6-8hrs) im getting the usual aches, pains numbness. Im pretty fussy about my set up, spent a lot of time adjusting cockpit, seat etc to get things...
I would start by checking everything is torqued up correctly, Particularly the shock mounts.Also the cause of the noise is not always where you think its coming from as they can travel around the bike. I had a dry bearing in my head tube and it sounded like it was coming from the rear shock...
:ROFLMAO:, Yup its grounds for divorce alright. Mine was Christmas present to self, but even then I took a few goes to hit the buy it now button.
But I have to say having used it now for 6 months I wouldn't go back to a normal dropper, I liked it so much I bought the axs shifter as well.
I hear...
Hi, if you can swallow the price the rockshox reverb asx is the daddy imo, seem to be plenty of spares around and super easy to swap to your other bikes too
I had a chip on the chain stay and a mark on the front wheel of my brand new Trance advanced. Both items were replaced by my Giant store with no issues. I had the same conversation about "its going to get messed up anyway" but that's not the point. You buy new because you want new, not new B...
Wow, that really is crap. Nothing like the 2021, and suggesting that you run it till it brakes, then we will fix it is rather dumb considering the safety implications
So problem on the reign, or other 2022 models, No update required ?? I’m sorry if I caused confusion on this. I should have said “may require update”, my apologies
It was my Giant dealer where I bought the bike and extender from. I was there when they fitted it. Out came the lap top and a firmware update was done apparently so the batteries “talk to each other “. This is on my Trance 2021. The main battery gets run down to 6% then switches over to the Rx...
You need to take your bike to the shop for a firmware update to get the extender to work so to cover yourself why don’t you ask them to fit the extender for you, that way your covered warranty wise, 2 years on the battery I think ?. And if it goes on and doesn’t look right you’ll have the option...
Your welcome, just a thought, have you looked at the Canyon neuron On 6 ?
Same money I think but far superior components plus 625wh and 85nm. I’m very biased towards giant but I tested the spectral at Just Pedal in dorking (you can hire them out there and test in the Surrey hills) which has the...
Hi, and welcome. I haven't ridden the embolden, but I have a 2021 trance with 80nm which I love riding around the South Downs. I don't often get up into the high power modes, for example the climbs around cissbury and chanctonbury would normally be done in mode 3, so even if you knocked off 10nm...
