    First emtb- carbon or hydro?

    I know that the parts might benefit some, like better fork/shock etc. Atleast if you're using it, if you can "live" with the fox 34, its lighter... But for battery consideration alone I would make sure I really need it. Im overall about 300km with my M20 (XL) and I absolutely love it and dont...

    Is it adjustable? It’s producing friction with the chain

    Guide cant move forward. I was able to hack it tough - I reattached the guide rail to the engine without using the washers, and added very small washers to the guide upper plastic part (the actual "guide"). It doesnt sit in that rail anymore (that allows it to move only up/down), and with a...

    Is it adjustable? It’s producing friction with the chain

    I couldnt reinstall the original washers as the screw thread or the engine thread may be a bit wore down, I guess. Maybe the screw? I wasnt able to find the same screw at the local stores in my town so I eventually found this alternative for now: 1. Plugged back the guide to the engine with the...

    Is it adjustable? It’s producing friction with the chain

    Thanks. I think I only made my situation worse... Now Im unable to tighten it back with the original washers. So I cant even test if adding a single washer to only one of the screws might help or not. The screws can be tighten back if Im not using the original washer at all, but then the guard...

    Is it adjustable? It’s producing friction with the chain

    There is only a way to slide it up or down. That screw is attaching the guide onto a rail that moves only on the Y-axis. My problem is that when the chain is set to the first gear, the chain is bent from the crank towards the inside of the frame by the rear derailleur By itself everything (with...

    Is it adjustable? It’s producing friction with the chain

    Yes, thats the chain guide. Sorry for the upside down, I was finishing up maintenance and the bike was resting on the floor. It doesnt seem adjustable, it has only one screw to fit it with the base that its mounted to, which is part of the crank I think. I dont see a way for it to move...

    Can this be adjusted? And if so how on first gear it’s producing friction with the chain.

    Frame bag for Orbea Rise

    I do want to have my phone with me, just in case... I dont need it on my handlebar since I use almost exclusively my garmin watch as tracking/navigating, but you know, stuff happen and garmin still has no cellular options :)

    Frame bag for Orbea Rise

    Really liked this one, and I really need a place to store some stuff + my phone, but the small size seems to be sold out. Do you have a photo of the medium size on a XL frame? Also, how well made the strips are? Do they leave a mark or tiny scratches on the paint?

    Rise Up - What are your upgrades?

    In my bike the cable from the remote into the frame is shorter, and the cable from the remote to the switch buttons is longer. I dont think I cant do that. Any other suggestions? Or is it only to open up the bike and slide in a longer cable?

    Rise Up - What are your upgrades?

    How did you get this space there between the frame and the stem? Are these spacers of some sort? My fork steerer is cut such that the stem starts exactly on the frame. Is it something I can do too and raise the handlebar slightly? Feels like I lean forward too much... Yes, Im currently planning...

    First emtb- carbon or hydro?

    Thanks. Makes sense. Regardless of geo remains balanced, do you think it might actually help? I see many replace their handlebar to one with 35mm rise, but I wonder how many of them is due to the same reasoning as I 😁

    First emtb- carbon or hydro?

    Had a first ride today. Well, truth be told - I didnt ride a bike for few months since my last one got a crack in the frame, and took me quite some time to debate with myself whether to buy emtb or not... so while that day finally arrived, i lost my shape significantly. thank god it has a motor...

    Quick link that fits the original chain for M20?

    I always been anxious about breaking a chain during the ride. Is that an increased risk with emtb's? In general, can anyone guide me which chain is recommended to use with the M20, and which quick link should I buy? Will any 12speed link work? Or should it be something built for emtb?
