Around 6 I think

I'm to old for that. Don't mend as easily anymore.

I'm entered, looking forward to the climb stage. Not going to make the briefing on Friday night though.

Anyone riding the Bosch emtb challenge this month at Ardrock? Any thoughts or advice?

Remember if you put an ep800 in you'll need new speed sensor, new power switch, new toggle switch and computer as the ep8 has different sized cable connectors.

Easy solution, buy a second battery pack and a emtb specific backpack that has a good battery stowing system and then no more range anxiety!
