Ahoy hoy. I've got a 2yo Trek Rail 7. Done some mods to brakes and drivetrain, and generally adore it. Only grips is the forks can feel harsh on a big hit (Yari upgraded to Lyrik). She's up for a new cassette and if I were to upgrade the fork, I'm potentially near the price of a new Sam2 6.8 or...

Anyone else's right crank arm bolt keep coming loose? (Rail 7) Mine does every single ride now. Surprised it's not an interference fit (the crank arm), it comes right off. It seems like a design issue, and I'm not sure how to fix it. Open to suggestions!

Anyone fitted a longer travel dropper? Wondering if the seat tube will allow for it...

Is there a Trek (or any brand) light designed for our bikes? There is an additional wires in the down tube presumably for it, so am surprised they’re not promoting a light to plug in!

Not sure if others have found this, but my battery would ever-so-slightly rattle on bumpy action. Just at the lock/catch. I had to use two of these high density adhesive foam pads to fill the gap but it works an absolute treat. Dead silent and a cheap fix. I’m not sure if there’s an...

Just bought a Yakima Holdup 2 described as fitting bikes up to 29ers, tires 3” wide. My Trek Rail (29/2.6”) has no chance of fitting the wheel clamp over the wheel. It’s also very long, barely touching the rear wheel holder. It was one of the few rated for a good weight (27kg per bike). And...

If you run ebike tyres like the Eddy Currents, with the thicker casing and protection would this negate the need to an extent for inserts? I’ve been contemplating cushcore or Vittoria liners, but the Eddys weight nearly 1.5kg in 29/2.6 and with cushcore it would be up near 1,750g. That’s super...

Does anyone know about the algorithm for the auto mode? I’m curios if full (turbo) assistance is available, or just somewhere in-between? I ask because with the Giant Yamaha motors, there are 5 assistance levels. In auto mode it fluctuates between Level 2 and Level 4, so full power is never...

First roost under a smokey Sydney sky. Thing is mint! Super playful, hops over everything you want, new gen motor quieter, just unreal. Motor is signing off at 27.3km/hr which I guess is better than 25 (would love 32 though!). As some of you know I agonised over bike choice. I couldn't ride...

Can anyone with a Reign E+ comment as to whether the bottom bracket is an issue? Or more importantly the motor underhang? Just off a short test ride and that was the only thing making me hesitate. The motor was super quiet, XT drivetrain sensational (Pro 1), I’m close but don’t want to be...

Got a question as I shop for a new bike. I prefer a 27.5 wheel size as the bikes I’ve ridden feel more playful than the 29ers I’ve ridden. However in the eBikes, the ones that tick every other box seem to always be a 29er. Question though, take the Trek Rail 29er, the chainstay is 447mm. The...

I tried a 29er (analogue) and found it super efficient but boring as heck, so went back to 27.5 bikes without looking back. Way more playful for my liking. Now I’m eBike shopping, all the things with promise are 29ers! I like the Levo which used to be 27, but now 29. The Meridas are 29 front...
