A tank indeed. The wheelbase is so ling I can't transport it on my vertical bike rack without it occasionally smacking the back wheel on the ground when I'm going up or down a driveway! Right pain in the ass. Compared to my meat powered lenz fatillac it's ridiculous as that has super short...
Haha yeh people are always surprised when I tell them I manage ski lodges here in Australia. They aren't a patch on the northern hemisphere but we do have some decent snow at times and the resort sits at about 1700metres,the highest lift is 1900.In the only fat biker up there and during covid I...
I usually ride fat bikes.My non ebike is a lenz fatillac, a full squish 130/ 140 monter truck that has 80mm rims and 4.0 tires which can go literally anywhere. I also have a bung neck( years of impact injuries) so I like the extra float and being able to run my tires at lower pressure,less harsh...
Cheers mate.Never heard of them or the product but I will check it out.Thats why I love these forums.Allways someone with a useful nugget of knowledge that I may or may not have stumbled across at some point with blind luck! Cheers
Anyone else mulleted a designated 29er? I have a Norco sight A1 vlt 2021 bike and last week destroyed the back wheel thanks to the local council that hedge trimmed the local trail but didn't pick up the debris so I got an inch thick branch through my wheel that ripped the spokes completely out...

I've seen this model on special here in Australia for 4000 dollars which is very reasonable. How are yiu liking it? Does it have enough power on the ups? And is it burley enough to handle reasonable trails with the odd 1 meter drop thrown in? ( I'm currently on a norco sight vlt alloy that...
I currently have a lyric ultimate 160mm on the front of my Norco sight vlt which is fairly capable although I'm 95kg,probably 98 kitted up for riding amd I've bottomed it out a few times over shooting jumps.Im thinking i might need to upgrade to a Zeb
Hey folks,I'm looking at the n3w 2024 merida e160 400 that's a very reasonable price brand new here in Australia (5450au). It has a rockshox Psylo R fork on it which has superseded the Yari,revelation and 35 fork.I rode the original psylo fork back in about 2001 and they were awesome for their...
Ive been riding fatbikes (analogue) exclusively for the last seven years.I have a neck injury and the extra lushness makes riding a bit less battering for me,lus I manage a ski lodge so actually get to ride snow quite often.but a really good deal came u on some ex rental bikes locally so i...
What a sensational bike that turned out to be!! Awesome paintjob.I would like to build something very similar but as a fatbike as I have enough parts and wheel sets to put one together.Is it a Dengfu or another brand? cheers
Hey folks,very new to the e bike world allthough I researched for some time before I got my wife one(Merida 160 700)which is an awesome rig.i wasnt actually planning on getting one for some time but a deal came up on a second hand one ( Norco sight VLT 2021) that is in excellent condition and it...
