It was Cascade Components, they don't make anything for a Decoy sadly.

Well this should be fun, wish me luck!

Some of us are heading up Friday night with the aim to get a early start. Being I'm a newb there will prob stay on the main stuff to start with, get a feel etc. But yeah, it is what it is, If I happen to see a Rail rider I'll say hi ;)

Strangley about 15 of my riding buddies and me are heading up for a Saturday ride. I've booked the uplift, so was planning on blowing the cobwebs off the MTB and leaving the eeb at home for once. Still there has been talk of off piste already, so maybe we might bump into you later in the day...

Had a few over the years Fox, Endura, TLD, 100% (which are my winter choice) but I'm quite pleased with the Tasco Double Digits. Thin and simple and exactly what I want with no straps to tie, not really going to save you from much more than a gravel rash but airy and comfortable enough in hot...

My old stem was perfectly fine, but even that didn't help

Where you use boost in your battery in important as mentioned. I've found that in boost and with range on the display, the battery will die with 4-2 mile range on the display when being pedalled hard. Its a more trustworthy readout in the lower power modes.

This seems quite promising, cheaper production costs compared to traditional battery manufacture, and 8 times more power, which I imagine could be translated into a lighter smaller capacity too. Hemp fibres 'better than graphene' Cue sensible replies and weed related puns ?

Ground was nice and hard last Thursday :)

I think you feel let down by Shimano because this is the first bike component to have an element of, oh I dunno let's call it "cock blocking" by the manufacturer. You wanted those new wheels? bolt em up! Fancy an XTR shifter? fill ya boots. In that regard the component known as the motor is...

Lets not forget the Rovers & MG's :p

Depends on your shock and frame size, I''ve one that works on a XL frame with a non piggyback deluxe shock.
