Getting to know the new girl... inside and out
Rainy days are for wrenching! ?
I don't know if it's just me, but a new bike doesn't really feel like my own until every bolt is properly greased, threads loctite, torqued to spec, the fork has been redone with the correct amount of grease and fluid, etc. I honestly don't mind this routine of mine. It puts my mind at ease knowing stuff is done right and the bike is ready to get rowdy.
It had gobs of grease, but not as bad as others have posted here, and too little fluid. However, I am a very particular individual! ?hello, how did you find the fox fork? did it have grease and fluid?

go outside as long as you can.Thanks, that was the idea.
The "best" thing about MTB and e-MTB's is getting out into nice places and riding.
Okay, most of us don't have the Swiss Alps on our doorstep, but everyone's local countryside is better than being stuck inside.
Amen to thatThanks, that was the idea.

Well that monstrosity has been replaced with this funky gauntlet. Another six weeks to go but I’m able to remove this one as often as I like and take reasonable care. I’m also able to drive now which is fantastic! Back on the saddle this weekend I reckon (but taking it easy) ?
