    Honestly wasn't an issue, so much so that I just don't remember having any troubles at all when i swapped to some Spank Vibrocores. You can disconnect the cables from the stuff at the handles bars, so you don't have to re-pull any cables through the frame or anything. Infact i would go as far...

    Old ones were centre lock. Hunt wheels are 6 bolt. So had to get a 6 bolt rotor magnet to get the bike to work. Didn't know that the first ride with them.

    Went with a set of hunt enduro wide wheels. They have been faultless. The noise helps mask the ep8 knock too.

    Anyone know the max insertion length for a dropper post on the large carbon eone sixty? Looking at a 210mm one up

    just in case anyone was wondering. 2020/2021 Carbon e-one sixty is not compatiable with ANY kind of angle set. It uses a 52 ID bearing on each end of the headset. the Fork is kept in place by the knock block. How very annoying to have yet another standard.

    I have a feeling its the 2pot brake having a smaller surface resin pad thats being overwhelmed. I reckon even a switch to metal pads and using a flame + brake pad cleaner on rotors would fix the issue. But 4pots are an irresitable upgrade.

    6120 and 520 are the same calliper. The 7120 is newer and allows the use of finned pads. Can't confirm compatibility with levers though.

    4pot shimano slx and above are a good option. Shimano have finned pads that should help with heat. Adding a larger rotor than 203mm is not worth the extra weight imo. Also you'll have to run some form of mount and the frame might not be rated for it. When you change the rear rotor remember...

    That big of a rotor on the rear? Are you experiencing rear brake fade?

    Anyone had any luck finding an angle set for the 20/21 carbon e160's? Really want to know if it's compatible with the slackr kit. https://intl.9point8.ca/index.php?route=product/product&path=124&product_id=261

    Kaulins link seemed to include lots of the same type of adaptation, do they ship to the UK? https://www.ridewill.it/c3/en/cycling/1/e-bike-parts/76/e-bike-spares/399/magnets-and-sensors/589/

    Anyone derestricted the new Shimano EP8 yet?

    I've got it derestricted with stunlocker. Just have it at 32kmh at the moment. I haven't tried the circumference tuning yet as I like having an "accurate" speedometer.

    There is absolutely no way the large frame will take a 200mm dropper when it barely takes the 170mm as is.
