G'day all,

So last night I picked up a Merida e160 900e and spent a few hours in the garage getting to know the bike while the battery was charging.

This morning did a 10k set up ride to adjust pressures, damping, lever positions etc. Love it except for the reverb dropper post.

I might change the mode selector to the smaller flatter button type and see if I can tweak the reverb as I can't drop the post enough without it binding a bit.

One question for those with the 900e version - did yours come with tubeless valves, rims taped and ready for sealant? The dealer advised that they don't. Being the top of the range model I assumed it would. My young fella's Trek came with valves and taped, and it was 1/4 the price.

Also any concerns about using a tailgate pad in the ute to carry it?

Deciding if I duck out to Stromlo or to Majura pines this afternoon to get more K's in...

Wow that's pretty shit service to not set tubeless on the top of the range bike, actually any bike in the range. My Mrs giant hard tail they even offered if we wanted tubeless or tubes.
