It gets heavy when the bladder is full, I’ve done numerous rides with the back pack loaded to the gunnels, a heave to get on but ok when on your back.
What did you buy your ebike this week?

A bosch rotor magnet so i can use my DHR II/ Bont SE 4 on 35mm id wheels on my new Rise H30
I know it’s each to their own but I no longer carry a bladder in my backpack and it’s been a game changer in my opinion, I carry a Katadyn befree and a small Fidlock bottle, as long as there’s a water course on your ride your never without clean fresh water and the weight saving is massive and could add many more miles to a ride or getting back to your car/home without a flat battery is not to be underestimated
A pair of GripGrab Nordic 2 winter gloves / mittens. Their description says they are to be used in temperatures between -5 and +5 degC, which I think is appropriate. Above +5, I use my 100% Brisker gloves with good results, and below -5 I guess it gets cold using anything but thick mittens. I used the Briskers down to -10 last winter, but they are not up to it.
I've use these GripGrabs twice so far, on Saturday in -2 and today in approx +1. They keep my hands reasonably warm, but are a little bulky, as can be expected from thick gloves. I prefer as thin gloves as possible, but when winter is on, I have to face realities.

Bearings, grease, valves and pedal pins.......
Motor is currently on holiday for upgrade and service, so thought I'd take the opportunity to refresh everything else

If and a big IF my motor (Bosch) survives after the warranty period
Where has the motor been serviced ?

Performance line bearings (service centre) they had a name change sometime ago but still the same peeps..... lovely lot to deal with.
I had a gen3 Bosch that had water ingress, since they serviced and installed mudstop seal it's not missed a beat
Currently having my gen4 upgraded with better seals ready for winter muck
They're on here to chat to

I’ve used them before, didn’t know they serviced motors

Dropped off our January 2022 Trek Rail 5's to have the motors serviced at eBike Motor Centre
My Large has done over 3,000 miles and wife's Medium has done over 1,000 miles. Now out of warranty so time for some TLC from @Bearing Man "Bosch Gen 4 Motor Upgrade" plus anything else they think should be replaced. Said they need not ask me if something should or should not be done, if they...

New 100% brisker gloves came today test on Wednesday hopefully.
Also fox gillet arrived as well ordered a XXl as I usually do for length as normally man gear fits small
But this is huge makes me look ill
So back it’s going might order the xl but it pretty thin so weighing my options up again
Seen a trespass softshell gilet for £12 so might try that

Ok might loom at the XL
But it was regatta I saw for £12
The fox gilet is super thin certainly not warm enough to use on its own this time of year
Hopefully not using Turbo modeI heard he does more than just piss by the side of the trail.
Ahhhhh…I didn’t mean the bike.Always in turbo mode……don’t like to hang about
Don’t you mean Turdo mode.Always in turbo mode……don’t like to hang about
I would definitely agree that you couldn't use it on its own in winter..it is fleece lined ..but your arms would probably snap off in minus temps .
It is the Defend we are talking about ?
Not for my eMTB, but for Mrs irie's eMTB for Chrimbo. Ohlins TTX22m.2. Saw one for a silly price including spring so went for it. My best friend and I love her to bits. Good cook too.

Nothing as warm as that as I said it’s super thin. Mild autum and spring at best
But it’s going back and still look to find a suitable one

To my non-expert eye the Shredda tread pattern looks virtually identical to the Maxxis Maxxgrip High Roller 3's on our Trek Rails (DD front, DH rear).
