Yeah the steering was a real bummer, I could probably cope with the other negatives. Just try all the things on your bike is my recommendation 🙂

I tried a dh38 on mine, it made it dead, lifeless and the turning circle meant it was an immediate no. Have an intend flash now, wouldn't bother with a dual crown ever again.

Nah just get 2 batteries. It's far more versatile. A range extender would be only useful for a super long ride that isn't a loop 🤷

I'm 5 10, rh3. I have mine set to -5. I could happily ride all 3 settings, but it's comfier pedalling with the bars close tbh

I'm hard on rear tyres too. Throw a conti on there, they last forever even in supersoft. I think it's still harder than maxterra, according to my very scientific pinch test. I've got an entire season out of a conti rear tyre on my dh bike, that's never happened before!

Transmission is a real fussy barstard I found, nice when it's working well. It seems crazy to me you can't individually tune gears too, someone from sram told me why that was but I'd had too many beers to remember now 😅 I've had mine move under super heavy compressions, just need to reset it...

I've got a swb t6, tbh any smaller than that wouldn't be as versatile. It's awesome to daily drive. The transits are good too. There's various bike rack setups that work. Rocky mounts are the shit if you need to take your front wheel off. I use a pair of Yakima highroad racks that are awesome...

Your stand looks cool too

Solid build George. Ohlins will look great with that colour scheme too 👍

Yeah I've raced my ebike a few times now. Really great challenge, I'm torn if I'd be faster on a normal enduro bike. Ebike is so planted through the roughs, but quite energy sapping to pump to get the most out of on longer stages.

Putoline hpx is what I've used for all my mineral oil brakes. Works great, well priced. Factory recommended from Intend and Radic brakes too.

If that's what you prefer I'd get the levo tbh.

8th till 16th. Could be pressed for time a bit however. But hopefully we could work something out.

Hey bro, I'll be in nelson next week with my Crestline if you wanna try it. Could be setup a bit small for you at 470 reach. But you'll get the idea. It's a proper rowdy machine. The whole Crestline ownership experience has been great. I wouldn't worry they're not around the road...all bosch...

Yeah I was going to mention a mezzer pro if you're concerned about weight. But really you need an ohlins fork on there to be matchy matchy.

So I had some user induced issues with my dh bike yesterday. See attached pic 🤦‍♂️ So I did downhill laps with eebb all day, a dh fork makes a heap of sense on this 🤔 The difference in fore/aft stiffness between a single crown and dual is noticeable. Bike is a genuine do it all machine!

Haha, yeah! Sweet dude, I'll flick you a message

As a serial upgrader of bikes, 10 months in how is the bike fairing? Well I can confidently confirm that I love this bike still and wouldn't change it for anything! In fact, I love the way it rides so much I tracked down a Crestline dh bike for the perfect 2 bike quiver! Further changes I made...

I initially wound the pins in on my mallets, but figured it would wear the sole quicker (for ease of release) so put them back out. Absolutely mint now. Easy to get out, grip if I miss clipping in.

It's a pity you're not close to NZ I'd gladly take it off your hands 😅 One come up on marketplace close to me, I was too slow 🤦‍♂️
