I've survived this long without having a Facebook account and I still don't actually want one but I'm dealing with a company in China currently about a possible purchase I need to make (not MTB related) and they pretty much offer all their contact, support and any potential warranty claims...
I've been using Walk mode a lot today for prolonged periods while the bike was in a workshop stand to try to diagnose a clicking sound and set my gears up perfectly. While listening for the clicking sound I needed my head down near the cranks and drivetrain so I kept the walk mode button held...
Video here (bike is in walk mode)
This has been like this since the bike was new (about 65 miles old), I assumed it was just newness bedding around the gears and cables as it feels (while riding) and sounds exactly like a rear derailleur that isn't quite set up perfectly and the chain is just...
I've downloaded a GPX file to my phone and opened it with the Bosch Flow app but I'm wondering how easy the navigation is to follow when in a singletrack/offroad/natural/wooded environment as the Navigation display on the Kiox 300 is pretty basic and doesn't give you any reference points to look...
Physics says that hanging my heavy bike level from a dropper post that isn't at the centre mass of the bike is putting alot of stress on the internals of the post (I assume bushes), here:
So which way is the recommended method?
A: Bike level, dropper post at an angle. (Easier to work on)...
I need to ship a bike that's fully boxed in a normal bike box. I've used Paisley in the past but after speaking to them this morning they say that they won't ship e-bikes. I find this odd because it fits within their size and weight requirements for a bicycle and e-bikes among a lot of other...
Has anyone here sold a bike recently on eBay so can give an accurate answer?
As far as I can see ebay no longer do the Classified listing thing so my only choice is Buy Now or Auction. Once every couple of weeks eBay send me the 80% off of Final Value fees so I'm pretty sure I can use that as...
I'm after a wall mounted workshop stand that will take the weight of an EMTB comfortably. My current cheapo floor workstand was fone for my normal MTB but using it with the EMTB is a real balancing act because it simply can't deal with the weight. Was looking at this maybe but it does look like...
I want to treat myself to a brand new long ish travel trail bike because I've been riding MTB for 27 years but not actually bought many brand new bikes.
Trail mainly, nothing too slack because I like playful riding, not just plowing through/down/over stuff etc And I like to be able to wheelie...
I currently have it in one arm (the 'elbow' in the name is misleading really because it's actually damage to the tendon in the forearm near the elbow and its proper name is lateral epicondylitis), this time I've caused it by trauma by falling off my trials bike and just happening to whack that...
'20 Stereo 160 (625)
I get a constant knocking/rattle from the front end of the bike if I roll over small concrete cobbles, like this sort of thing:
It's recently had a new Superstar headset fitted which doesn't appear to have any play and I don't think I can feel any play in the forks (hard...
27.5" front and rear just suits me so I don't want to get into the whole 27.5" vs 29" debate here (yes I've ridden a 29" off road 😎).
I currently have a '20 Cube Stereo 160 (625wh) and my current plan to replace it is either with another Cube Stereo 160 (750wh) either '22 or '23 depending on...
Never had an issue with setting up any gears on any bike but having trouble with my SRAM 1x12 (SRAM SX Eagle Shifter & NX Eagle mech)
The H and L screws seem to be set perfectly.
There is only one barrel adjuster which is on the shifter but for the life of me I cannot find a setting on the...

Speed limits for road cyclists I totally get, if a car has to do 20mph on a certain road then so should cyclists but the whole notion that all cyclists (assuming MTBs as well) have...
I know this is a long shot but does anyone here happen to know of any knee pads, elbow pads and gloves that don't contain Neoprene?
I have a somewhat rare allergy to one of the chemicals in Neoprene that means when i wear it I get contact dermatitis which is super itchy, breaks the skin and...
Is there some kind of spacer available to move my crank arm out a little? And exactly what tools do I need to remove the crank on this bike? There's a little clearance there while static but it must be flexing and rubbing under load.
The photo makes the crank arm look bent because of the angle...
I might get some new wheels for mine because I get the feeling that's where Cube saved some money on the 2020 Stereo SL160 Hybrid so just wondering what spec hubs I need, like length, axle size and I guess the name of the rotor mount (it has a single lock nut type thing unlike my other bikes...
This is me attempting to view the Cube forum this morning, theres a big ad at the top and a pop up from the bottom so I can't actually see any forum content 🤣🤣
I totally get why ads are here but I don't remember it being this bad usually?
Been fine up until today, I popped the battery out then when I put it back in the cover has decided that it won't clip back on? When pushed on it kind of sounds and looks like it's on but can be pulled off with a very light touch, like if hopped off a curb it would pop off. Tried greasing it and...
