It’s getting to that time of year again!

A Lezyne Micro Drive 500, plenty of light for the trails I ride, even at night.

I‘ve hard wired it into the Levo, using the motor port, and it only draws 2A so no issues on the Gen 3.

 

[Tooks]

A quick blast up the hill out of the village, I suspect it’s a genuine 500 Lumens, plenty for what I need anyway.

I finally bit the bullet and purchased the expensive custom fit Sicomtb mud guard for my Levo SL. I should have gone for it earlier considering the marks on my bike's paint!

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. View attachment 125335 View attachment 125336

Magnets? That's cool, unless you have a Ford F150 like I do!

Bought a hub a while back, was thinking about the WTB CZR 30 rim in 28h to build up instead have ordered a Stans Reserve alloy Rim, Thinking black Sapim race spokes on drive side & silver Sapim race on non drive what do people think or just all black

The original sdg tellis dropper just kept working for 5 seasons on my decoy. The last year it squeaked pretty bad and had a fair amount of slop but worked fine. I probably couldve just threw in a $50 rebuild kit and continued with it but i ended up just getting a new "brand x ascend". Not bad at all but the thumb lever is poorely designed. So ordered up a wolftooth dropper lever. Night and day. That works sooo well. Ive never bought an upgrade dropper lever kit so i can't compare but great ez activating feel on the wolftooth. Psyched

One of these, so I can get the Sigma computer on the stem cap, the previous DMR stem had no room, which was a shame. It's for sale in the classifieds now.

My Rim turned up today to build up this wheel just need to order spokes so I go 28 black or 14 black on drive side & 14 silver for non drive side

Flexible straps for making CERTAIN that my bike does not come off the bike rack.

Gear Tie® Mega Twist Tie 32 in. £9.99 each

I needed the 32" version, the next smallest would not have been enough.

Dont Mix Spoke colours unless going full rainbow. Black spokes with silver or coloured nipples

Will go full black Sapim Race

 

[JStrube]

Those Gear Ties work great for keeping stuff tied up, velcro straps too.

The Shimano Deore brakes that came with my bike died a horrible, dramatic lever failure so I just ordered this as a replacement

Black on black on black..

But then I'm going through a dark phase.

Edit.. using an antique phone.. just read down which took 4 hours.. should look hot.

I bought my Levo a complete motor overhaul this morning. Bike is a bit more than 4 years old, motor was about 3 when it checked out.

 

[Rando_12345]

Ordered a Vivid Ultimate yesterday morning, then my Zeb felt like shit during my lunch ride, this might be a very expensive month...

I think I may be doing the same, only problem is I have a Fox 38 fork. I would have to buy a Zeb to match, can’t be having mismatched suspension

My piggy bank is in mode ON..

 

[Sander23]

[Mcharza]

Does not sound like the Ozone Protect Cream. Welllll, I might be bourgeois but who - enthusiast cyclist or not - is looking for this:
„You apply the comfort cream as a refreshing lotion and then dries into a silky, creamy powder layer.“
Try Sport Lavit Ice Fit Sport Shower Gel!

BTW, what does „Anti Bat-Wing“ mean here?

And what does Manly scent mean ?

It smells of some bloke who's not washed his crotch for a month ?

Or it smells of two stoke oil ?

Or it smells of Flowers, because you're so manly you're in touch with your feminine side and want to smell like your testicles have just been dragged naked through a field of poppy's whilst being chased by a dozen Nun's who've suddenly changed their minds.

You sound like you are speaking from personal experience; did they catch you?

 

[Zimmerframe]

I dunno .. when you reach a certain age, do you testicles somehow merge with your triceps ? Base jumping could be fun - but painful !

 

[Nicho]

I think it is meant to protect you from witches' potions.

 

[Zimmerframe]

Hell Yeah !

Isn't that just called Divorce ?

 

[Nicho]

Hell Yeah !

So you weren't just talking nunsense again then.
