Re pedal strikes, best thing I did was go back to my xt spds. Rarely get them now as the pedal is much smaller than any flat pedal. I may swap out to shorter cranks eventually when I’ve got some cash spare.
Mine cane undone a few times, no big deal. Tightened by hand and used a tyre lever to help for the last bit. This was on the trail, tightened up properly at home.
I found the same. Also getting the rebound dialled in perfectly makes a huge difference on the trail.
Anyone suffer with excessive brake dive on the Yari?
Cranks are rubbish so wouldn’t worry too much about those. I’m saving up for some Hope ones as I’ve bent 2 right hand ones already.
Re shock, might be a good idea to get that looked at. Whyte are great with warranties.
Re range, 30 miles pretty good tbh.
I got 39 in the peaks mixed eco/trail...
I read about this issue before I purchased, most of the Bosch gen 4 reviews mentioned it last summer. tbh it’s annoying, but the bike is so nice to ride that i put up with it.
Thanks for that. Incredible response time?Do you have an approximate idea of how long the countdown period is?
Interestingly “the final countdown” is currently playing on Virgin radio- Wierd coincidence ?
Ah great. Did see the thread on the trailwatts section, but seems it’s still in development.
I’m quite happy to make my own bracket too.
I’m intrigued by the Simplon solution.
I’ve ridden both too. Too me it’s not worth it.
The Yari fork Is fantastic. You’d have to be a downhill God to notice the extra 5% that Lyrik gives. Granted the Maxxis tyres are better and I hated the 12 speed as the gear change was grumbly and not as smooth. The more expensive brakes were...
Also re battery. A 625wh battery is only 415ish mm long. That down tube is waaay longer than that. I reckon a 1000wh would fit.
How cool would that be?
I need a new chainring as mine is worn out already. 825 miles do far.
I’d probably stay with the 34 though as it’s harder to pedal after the motor cut off speed
