    Electric mini pumps, do you use them?

    I run the Trek Air Rush. Works well, is noisy but it's not like you use it all the time. Really handy, I just set the pressure I want and it fills. I'm a fan.

    Paying on a bike you haven't recieved

    It all comes down to the relationship you have with the bike shop etc. I've laid down half the payment for a Forbidden Druid Core early last year (then got cancelled as I was away for an extended period overseas when it arrived in Jan this year) which I then rolled over onto the new Forbidden...

    Avinox launch 1500w M2S motor and cheaper M2 motor

    Avinox launch 1500w M2S motor and cheaper M2 motor

    Forbidden Druid - Avinox Powered

    When do you usually use auto vs economy when riding? Haven't got the Dreadie as yet but interested to see you use eco. From what I've been reading and hearing, most people just leave it in auto.

    Sorry, I have to disagree... your framing of this photo is still off. You need to raise the camera a bit more, what's all the crap at the bottom of the photo for?? :p

    My LBS had the option but didn't exercise it as an option as they haven't had anyone want one... even the previous Druide's apparantly were all Core... no demand by all accounts.
