What did you buy your ebike this week?

[Deleted member 28340]

Front and rear suspension are of to TF Tuning for full servicing so decided to give my 38's a little treat

 

[TrailBoB]

Last time out had nothing but squealing brakes, so bit the bullet & got Hope discs & Galfer pads. Now quiet as a mouse & improved bite. ( the brakes, not the mouse).

 

[HORSPWR]

squealing brakes

Mine were doing the same thing but I just cleaned them both with Acetone and the difference is night and day in stopping power now!

Not for the bike but for me on the bike, Its New Shoe day. Found them on a descent sale so I couldn't pass.

Getting in early in the anticipation of actually being able to ride soon maybe and by then it will be shitty weather.
Some custom GTX to replace my previous pair that were brilliant if a little small (half a size up, now gone a full size up)

How do they size up? I'm a 9, but waiting for a 9.5 and a 10 to arrive from JE James - boring black though

So i am normally 9-9.5 i bought 10 this time around as i wanted space for thicker socks. I would say half a size up on normal shoes.

I sized up half a size on my Freerider Pro and they came up good - read a bit about having to go a full size for sealskinz with these

What’s a “good price” over your side of the planet?

These were a good deal locally (Aus) at about $65 USD

I'm usually an 8.5 in most shoes... and ended up in a 9.5 in these. I could have got away with the 9, but got some thick sealskins and snowboarding socks that needed the extra space. When they first came out, Adidas had an 30% coupon, so I bought an 8.5, 9 and 9.5... then returned the 2 I didn't need.
I think my Freerider EPS are a 9.5 too.

So ended up going 10 - a full size up. Glad I tried them on

That's odd; all three pairs of Trailcross shoes are the only ones that I own in my usual size. Every other pair I've had to size up.

Are you talking normal Trailcross or gtx though?

 

[Doomanic]

I have Trailcross shoes in flat and SPD flavour and GTX boots. All are size 46.

Regular price here in Canada is $180cad, I found them for $110cad. Good enough for me to buy.

Dakine gripper bag under the saddle and pro-guard mini mudguard. I think I’m done… for now…

These look like some serious shoes for UK weather.

Boring/depressing stuff - A TRP Bleed kit, a sticky helmet mount for my light
Interesting stuff - spring adaptors so I can try my progressive spring

I’ve been wanting a tailgate pad for a while but I was holding off because I did not feel like having to attach the pad with the straps around the tailgate every time I go riding. I found this one that attaches using magnets. They make a full size tailgate one and a two bike one. I just got the two bike one. So far I like it.

Hi Rusty.. A new 2023 YMCA song for you ?

 

[deksawyer]

Bought a cheap ant+ heartrate monitor to work with the new Sigma Nox 11.1 Evo. Was less than a tenner from Aliexpress, but was dispatched from a uk address and was here within a few days of ordering. Quality is more than acceptable.

I only bought it because I'm old and I'm not interested in chasing numbers, apart from keeping an eye on my health.

GEOID HS500 Chest Strap Heart Rate Monitor

HS500 has a flashing LED light that indicates your heart rate and connection, allowing you to easily stay focused and improve efficiency during any activity or exercise. *Note: The red light indicates that the monitor is ready to use.
