What did you buy your ebike this week?

[skizzian]

I'm in Scotland yes, but Peaty's is a UK company so easy to order online or pick up in store from bike shops (my local only sells Muc-Off though, which I don't like).

Sorry it was a reference to 'DRY'

Wooosh! That went right over my head

Thanks! It's very difficult to decide given the amount of choice available.

This calculator says Magic Mary Gravity PRO Radial/Eddy Current Gravity PRO Radial

Anyways, this probably isn't the correct thread to discuss it

just got the 29 2,5 Tacky
took some pic's next to a 2.6 DHR II, 2.5 Shredda rear, 2.5 Magic Mary
the Tacky is a LOT more aggr

essive than the DHR

Anyone used one of these. Any difference between mini and the V2

Thanks very much! It's definitely a chunky beast.

I've settled on these:

Front — Tacky Chan, 29×2.5, Trail Pro, Radial, Ultra Soft

Rear — Romy, 27.5×2.5, Gravity Pro, Radial, Soft

(Is there a forum area for posting deals? I couldn't see one but notice people post deals in this thread.)

So, with the state of the world and economy, there's no doubt going to be a ton of discounting happening on many things.

Inventory is at a crazy high level across almost everything and bike brands need to maximise cash... So it will be a buyers market. Use this thread to post things you've seen.

Had a weird fall in Sedona last Saturday. Even playing back the footage I have no idea what happened. I've decided to blame it on a vortex. Makes for a better story if anything. lol All falls here seem to involve rocks; and this one was no different. Luckily the Ride Wrap protected the stays, but I need to replace the film on the non-drive side stays. Instead of buying yet another Ride Wrap kit; I bought some 1" clear helicopter tape off Amazon. Inexpensive enough to try. If it looks ghetto I'll drop on another RW kit.

If my hips need to pass the bars to be an OTB, then no. Bike sorta stopped; weight shifted forward; and I fell towards 10:30. Grateful for all the protection I wear, especially the Leatt Impact Shorts. I have a good bruise on my left hip. I can only wonder how much worse it would've been if I hadn't been wearing them.

You mentioned riding the Hardline trail which is near the Cathedral Rock Vortex. This vortex is said to have powerful feminine energy. I can only assume you did something to piss-off the lady of the mountain and in turn, she bitch-slapped you to the ground. Next time, best to offer up a rose or chocolate sampler to gain favor with her.

Now it all makes sense Gila Man.

Vortex!!!! . That's as bad an excuse as me and Drummond saying we went through a time warp when we take 8 hours to complete a 30 mile ride.
