Sorry for your loss . . . Would be fitting to bury her along one of your favorite trails though!Replaced worn out cassette , chain & chainring on my Whyte e160rs .( no pics) ...but yesterday was a very sad day as I had to say goodbye to one of my oldest riding companions after years of being together and visiting some fantastic locations ..it was time to say goodbye .. as she's split ..
I knew at the end of our recent Kirk Yetholm ride that the end was nigh ..but only just got around to looking for something better..
Goodbye Hawg ( split under zip)...View attachment 111734
Hello Raptor 14 ...hope you Ospreys are as good ..but with a price reduction down to £87.00 from an rrp of £145.00..it seemed like a good idea

Here you go,

Indeed it would ..had she not already met a grisly end in the bin wagon ..when its over ..its really over

I wanted to be a little closer to nature while on the trails 
Have you used this yet and if you have is it as good as the Park Tool spoke tension meter please

I had some Loyalty Points from buying a bike recently so used them up on a 12spd xx1 chain for when my GX dies, and some rainbow power locks 
Price printed on the chain is wrong, it was actually 65, seems they are around 60 online,
Makes me wonder if they rip people off with a different instore price though

Best thing I ever found for removing sticky residue are CPU cleaners@Sanzun
Gorilla Tape Warning!
Removing Gorilla tape residue from wheel rims
I used Gorilla tape on my wheel rims, as recommended by my LBS. It's great, looks fantastic and it works a treat. But Oh boy! When you want to remove it what an absolute sod! When you peel it off the thick sticky adhesive is left behind. I have tried a proprietary "Sticky Stuff Remover" that...www.emtbforums.com
specifically this one "Arctic Silver ArctiClean Thermal Material Remover"
I don't know what's in it but it has a really amazing citrus smell
Probably not worth buying just to remove some residue from a rim though

Was looking for a minimalist but robust solution to mount my nav gps on my emtb, something that won't stick out and may break during a fall. Tried many designs, stem top cap mount, handle bar mount sp-connect style, wrist mount,.... Eventually found this small and discrete bar mount on Amazon. Supports most gps units. Has been working well for me.

I've only had a quick play with it so far. Never used the park tool one, so can't do a comparison I'm afraid, but seems decent quality for £20. I'm not sure how well calibrated it is, but should be good enough for relative measurements.
Hope cranks and pedals fitted this morning before hitting the trails.

Looks sharp (no pun..) What's the cranks length?
155mm. my others were 165.

not what I got FOR my ebike, but the ebike itself! Ordered a Turbo Levo for my gf last week, just heard it arrived at the dealer today but they won't let me pick it up and assemble it myself, ugh! they said it could take them 3-4 days to build it (due to backlog) and it's part of their dealer agreement for them to assemble it themselves.
bittersweet day. should've just ordered direct from Specialized. I'm hoping they can get to it sooner! especially with the weekend just around the corner and showing no rain too!

That's not much
Where is this going? I'm running 160mm cranks and thought these were already very short. Soon we'll need more powerful motors, or shorter legs...

Probably not the reason for you guys switching over to a "bum bag" (as we call them here in Oz) but was starting to get some serious sweat rash in the summer months with my back pack.I swore to never own a hip pack, laughing it off as another passing industry fad. But…….. after a trip to GoOutdoors with my lad and a look and try of the Camelback LR4, I’m deffo ordering one for when I’m able to ride again. It just feels right, don’t care about looks, it’s behind me
So went over the dark side with a Dakine 5lt Hot Laps, it puts all the weight lower on to your hips and keeps your back cooler, and as the say in the classics, there is no going back. Excellent product and would definitely buy another one.

I run 165mm cranks on my regular pedal bikes and I'm 6' tall. me personally I have no issues with the 160 cranks on my emtb especially with the support of the motor, I've also ran it unassisted and it felt ok. I'm sure I wouldn't mind 155mm as well, that's what the motor is there for haha I haven't even ran it above 60% power eitherThat's not much
Of course, it's all personal preference
Nice one, thanks for the feedback mate

Ok yes I “upgraded” my Fox 38 that came with my Turbo Levo for the Factory model purely because it matches my theme better. Don’t judge me

After…
I’m gonna put the “old” (which is still new) 38 on my gf’s bike instead of her current Fox 36 Rhythm.

No "bling", just boring useful parts replacements here: new Conti Kryptotal tyre, new GX Eagle cassette and matching black XX1 chain. Bike is ready for the new season! 
Should have kept the field surgeon table and ditched the out of dateI'm one of those riders who carries the kitchen sink on every ride ...you know ..just in case
It's a bit smaller than the HAWG it's replacing so I'll probably have to leave the field surgeon table behind ..

Just installed a Hope Gravity 50mm 0° stem on my Scott Strike eRide. Nothing wrong with the original stem, but it just needed to go!! Overkill? Probably..

Bit of a spending spree on the rear end. Spent ages deciding on hub colour, does look better than in the pics.
Gone for Schwalbe as maxxis wear out too quick, hope it’ll be as good as it’s claimed to be?

In my personal experience I've found whilst maxxis wearing out if you get the softer compound the ride feel is just so much better than schwalbe, but that's just my opinion
