Hi everyone - as the 2022+ models have a UDH hanger, has anyone tried the new T-Type AXS rear derailleurs? I was about to pull the trigger on the traditional hanger mounting GX AXS rear derailleur, but realised that I have a UDH hanger which I should be able to remove and direct mount a T-type...
Saint brakes have the banjo style connection at the caliper end, not the barb and olive like the Deore brakes. I since have discovered the comprehensive online PDF version of the Rocky manual which gives decent instructions on how to do the brake hose change.
Thanks - I just used some spare Cane Creek mounting hardware I had in the workshop. Very easy swap over, went for a ride today and worked fine.
Another question - what is your weight and stiffness spring you are using on your DB Coil IL? I've got a progressive 450-550lb spring on my Kitsuma...
I'm planning on installing my Cane Creek Kitsuma Coil shock on my Powerplay.
I've measured the existing shock hardware to be 40mm wide at the linkage end and 25mm at the other end.
Is there any issue just installing standard 40mm x 8mm shock mounting hardware instead of the stock bearing...
I'm seriously considering going to the effort of getting some shorter cranks. With my 170mm RF Ride cranks on my A50, I hit my cranks regularly on my normal trails. My 170mm cranks actually measure 190mm to the end of the crank (so there is a lot of extra length sticking out after the pedal...
I'm about to receive my 2022 RM Altitude Powerplay A50 after waiting over 12 months!
I have a brand new set of Shimano Saint brakes sitting in the workshop and was thinking of swapping out the stock Deore 4 pot brakes straight away.
Has anyone swapped out their brakes yet, if so, how difficult...
What is the required spindle length on the Aeffect cranks? I've tracked down availability for some 165mm Aeffect R cranks but want to make sure the spindle is long enough.
Thanks!

Update on my 2019 Metapower - got the dreaded W013 followed by a permanent E010 code 5km from the end of my ride a few days ago. Swapped batteries but the E010 code appears as soon as pressure is put on the pedals. The bike has gone back to my local Commencal HQ for inspection. Motor has about...
I definitely had to drop the motor to replace the housing. I kept 2 mounting bolts attached so I could swing the motor out of the way like a hinge. Made it relatively simple, just needed some patience! Oh, and I never reinstalled the foam around the housing. Made no difference to regarding...
Hi Decoy owners
I'm considering a Decoy MX as my next ebike, but noticed from the geo charts that the Large has a reach of just 446mm. I'm 6'0" height and like longer bikes, so does this mean I should be going for a XL? Even the XL reach at 469mm seems a bit tight compared to other brands...
I'm running a Marzocchi Coil shock on my 2019 Metapower - anyone know whether the bigger battery fits OK with a coil shock? I'm definitely noticing my original 504Wh battery performance degrading, so was looking to replace it with the 630Wh.
thanks

Does anyone know if the 2021 Jam2 frame has any better clearance for piggyback coil shocks? I've got a brand new MRP Hazzard 210x55mm shock looking for a new frame!! I do know that the MRP coils are 38mm inner diameter, so a bit larger than CC and Fox.
Thanks

My Metapower started showing the E010 error again a few weeks ago unfortunately - up to 6 times a ride.
Took it back to Commencal and they noticed a pinched Shimano lead between the battery and motor, which they replaced.
3 rides in and no E010 error - fingers crossed this has finally solved...
On my Metapower, about 4 months ago I started getting the E010 error 3 to 4 times per ride.
I assumed it was a loose battery connection (even though it felt tight in the mount), so I adjusted the position of the top battery mount to make it even tighter, and also stuck some 5mm closed cell foam...
I'm about to swap over to a new drivetrain and wanted to go from a 34t to 32t front chainring, and go back to 11sp 11-42t cassette from a 12 speed set-up.
I just realised that the Shimano chainguide has 2 fixed positions only for 34t and 38t rings.
Anyone running with a 32t ring with the...
Hi Everyone
Just wondering after how many kilometres my Shimano E8000 motor should go in for a service?
Anyone know where to get the motors serviced anywhere in Australia? I've got a Commencal Metapower, so I doubt Commencal Australia have the capability of servicing them.
Thanks
Chris
