I think Brian Cahill says it better than I can The Avinox Apocalypse TLDR: Are the new Avinox motors amazing? Yes! Do we really need/want 1500W on a mountain bike, or should Avinox have given us something else? (Add vastly differing opinions here) Will it be fun to ride with 1500W? Probably...

My recently purchased Trek Fuel+ has a Fox Float X factory shock. Too much bling for me personally, but that's what it came with. After just over a month of not very aggressive riding (no jumps, big drops etc) the shock is now loudly squelching under compression and you can almost hear the oil...

Loving my new Fuel+ with the TQ HPR60 motor. I've used the TQ app to customise the data fields on each display page, but to my astonishment it seems that there's no option to display trip distance and/or odometer km. I would like to be able to see my trip distance on the display during my ride...

I am copying below the post I recently made to the Gen 2 Fuel+ thread as a stimulus for polite, non-partisan comment and discussion about the future of SL bikes. I recall several commentators saying not so long ago that there was no demand for mid power bikes, and that the SL concept was now...

After months of dithering I finally decided to try out a mullet set up on my 2022 Trek Rail. I found a DT Swiss rear wheel at a really good price, although it was only available with a centrelock hub. My current wheel and disc rotor are 6 bolt, and of course the Bosch speed magnet fits onto...

I have Medium size 2022 Rail and have just fitted a Charger 3.1 damper to replace the original Motion Control damper in the Domain fork. On the Med size Rail the clearance under the downtube is extremely tight if the fork is fully turned (without the knock block fitted) and with the old Motion...

I've a question for any Bosch gen 5 owners about their experience of its efficiency and battery consumption. I just test rode a Santa Cruz Vala for the day with the Bosch gen 5 motor and 600Wh battery. I rode a collection of steep natural rocky trails and did a 30km and +700m circuit at which...

I'd be interested in swapping out a gen 4 Bosch CX for the new gen 5 in my 2022 Trek Rail. I know that the new Bosch model has different mounting holes so it is not directly interchangeable. However, the old gen 4 was actually fitted into the bike frame by means of intermediate fixing plates...

In the last year we've seen Wiggle and CRC go bust as well as several established bike brands, Pole being the latest. Clearly the bike industry is going through troubled times and yet watching EMBN news vids over the same time period there seem to be a whole host of new bike brands launching...

Hi everyone . 65 yr old Brit living in France. Had to give up mountain biking a few years back due to angina problems but now got two stents in my heart and bought a Trek Rail last year. Am now a reborn MTBer and doing harder, steeper, more technical and challenging rides here in the French...
