Hi Guys

My first post on this great forum, my first ebike. Brilliant bike, I do feel like I am riding a very agile tank :)
Just picked it up, and I really love it. 160 HPC SL 2021
So far, so good... just 7km on it, for the moment.

The biggest surprise was to have it delivered now, as opposed to initial estimated delivery date "the earliest Feb 2021"

Clean


Ride

Dirty


Roll on summer :( To be honest i only hose the thing down and blow dry it off in this weather but sometimes you just cant stand it any longer and it needs a proper clean, good to check everything over at the same time.
Actually looking at the last picture its not that bad, probably because I'm avoiding the sludge and sticking to hard pack.

3 Weeks!!!!
Holy Cow!. I replace my rear pads about every 1000 km, and the front ones last week after 3000km. (I do a lot of trail riding on gravel etc and tend to favour my back brake over the front one).
I use the Magura S pads (S = Sport) seems to work well for me.

Looks like you have been grinding a lot on the Metal. I hope your Discs are OK:

i know ! i did have the heads up the conditions i was riding in plus the pads i was using wouldn't last super long but to be that worn really suprised me, that was a rear pad, i'm also a motorcyclist so pretty even on my brakes as a rule, maybe something has got in there and effected that pad but i have riden 20 miles on the fresh pads and all seemed on with the braking so fingers crossed rotor is ok, bike is due in this month for its complimentary service from the shop i bought it so i will be asking them to check, also my rear tyre has misshapen which seems to be an issue with the tyre type according to the internet, i will see how the uber pads i have in there fair and maybe go for genuine magura pads again once the weather breaks a little bit, thanks for the reccomendation
