    Anyone removed the Trek Rail Battery Lock?

    This makes a helluva lot of sense. I'm surmising that this bolts up through the deleted key barrel hole on the non drive side of the down tube? Would you mind posting a pic of what that looks like?

    Anyone removed the Trek Rail Battery Lock?

    If they use Abus as the lock provider, pretty sure you can get a key matched lock? Carrying a spare battery? What's your average ride distance????

    Anyone removed the Trek Rail Battery Lock?

    It's an Abus locking barrel on the trek. I haven't seen the Yakima lock but can confirm that the key and lock combination on the trek also does double time as part of the battery retention system keeping the battery in place. The current lock and key delete requires a fabricated base plate and...

    Anyone removed the Trek Rail Battery Lock?

    I've got a vertical bike rack and have a frozen right shoulder. Tried loading the bike up with battery and it was a nightmare. Removed battery and bam. Instant success. Whilst I applaud the idea of removing the need for a key, I am one of those guys that will be using it regularly.

    Any recommendations for prescription mtb glasses ??

    I'm a tightarse and just ride with whatever glasses I wear as a daily. Specsavers at $200 for two pairs and I'm sorted. Don't like riding in tinted lens as I struggle with contrast in the shade.

    Hello from Melbourne Australia! 6mth search for an EMTB and guess what I have on order!?!?!

    Love the timing of your offer and question. Bike will be delivered on Thursday, as I found out today. My wife is fronting the discussions with amorningron Cycles as she's getting a kick out of it. Usually we ride the Youyangs with my 7 & 9 yo boys and wifey. Have also done Redhill a few times...

    Hahaha. Well played. I've been referred to as "resourceful" and "cunning" before, but have never been ousted so quickly after the roll out of a grand plan.

    Hello from Melbourne Australia! 6mth search for an EMTB and guess what I have on order!?!?!

    Father's day is the first Sunday of September each year, and were expected to come out of lock down on the 2nd September. We've got some pretty conservative politicians here, so expecting this lock down thing to drag out a little more. Wanted the whole experience of walking into the store to...

    Hello from Melbourne Australia! 6mth search for an EMTB and guess what I have on order!?!?!

    As long as you can reciprocate a similar trip for me to get to the UK! I've bought from a relatively local store, and it's available, they just need to build it up and send it out. We're in hard lockdown ATM in Melbourne and can't really venture more than 5km from our home. The place I bought it...

    Hello from Melbourne Australia! 6mth search for an EMTB and guess what I have on order!?!?!

    Have only been riding MTBs for just a touch over 18mths with most of that time stuck in lockdown. Main ride is a Canyon Strive and find that I don't have the time (& inclination) to train and get fit enough to earn my turns In March, me and a few mates went on a 3 day MTB weekend and test rode...
