    Transporting Trek Rail

    Yakima bike rack has been superb! I use for long motorway journeys and been confident with it. My only gripe is that it could have a locking mechanism when the clamp is closed, but maybe this will be included on future versions (if read here, please give credit 😉). There is a lock that can be...

    Kiox Buttons Snapped

    Nice idea! But over engineered and ugly as fuck.

    Kiox Buttons Snapped

    Super glue and black electrical tape. Fixed many months ago and haven't thought about it since.

    Kiox Buttons Snapped

    Glue on its own didn't survive. I used glue and black electrical tape. The tape is barely visible and has held strong 👍🏼

    Kiox Buttons Snapped

    That was what I was thinking. I've spotted replacements for £50 but pretty annoying to replace the whole controller when it is just a plastic ring

    Trek Rail Battery Cover

    Not a frame cover, but to just cover the connection, this is a very cheap addition.

    Trek Rail Battery Cover

    I'd like to transport my bike without the battery, but then it will leave an empty space in the frame with the electrics exposed. I'm surprised Trek don't sell empty covers that click in. Has anyone tried the "unofficial" ones outs there? Thoughts?

    Invisiframe - Should you buy? Answer - Yes

    I'm also waiting for my new bike to arrive and thought exactly the same thing. But when Bike Shield turned up, i didnt have a clue where the panels would go on the frame. There would definitely be cutting and adjusting, and even then I think I'd need to buy at least another pack to cover the...

    Invisiframe - Should you buy? Answer - Yes

    I initially thought that the invisiframe products were too expensive to consider. So I went and ordered a Full Pack Regular from Bike Shield. In the pack I received a few generic sheets, but had no idea how I would assemble on the bike. It certainly isn't enough product to cover the whole bike...

    Rail 9 2021 Orange - Invisiframe Gloss or Matte

    Rail 9 delivery is imminent. I believe the frame has a gloss finish, but it's been so long since seeing it in real life, I cant remember. Anyone protected theirs? Which protection finish did you go with. Thanks

    Transporting Trek Rail

    That's the best evidence yet! So glad I asked. Bought a 598 rack (will be sending back!) and expecting bike to arrive on Thursday (although that's been pushed back 5 times, so who knows). Will be buying a front wheel rack. Thule 599 or Yakima Highroad. Yakima appears to have the best reviews...

    Roof Mounted Bike Rack Trek Rail

    Thanks for this advice. I have a BMW 2 Series, hence the need for a roof mounted. Have you any experience with the front wheel rack, Thule 599? Thanks very much for your advice!

    Transporting Trek Rail

    Hi James, Did you ever test out the Thule 598 on your Trek Rail? I need a roof mounted system for my pending Rail 9 and can't find any advise. Thanks Hi James, Did you ever test out the Thule 598 on your Trek Rail? I need a roof mounted system for my pending Rail 9 and can't find any advise...
