    Looking for the Top Dog emtb

    What is your budget? Crestline 75/50 would probably be classed as the top dog.

    Cheap bike carry travel bag?

    Hey! I’m moving to Malaga next month and looking to take a couple of bikes in the back of my car. Car is a BMW M3 Touring and the bikes are a Trek Rail 9 and Whyte e-160. I’m looking for a couple of bags to stick the bikes in, the Evoc ones look great but too expensive considering I’m just...

    RRP Proguard Max

    Does the crown hit the mudguard at full compression? I have the Fox mudguard and it's hitting with about 5mm of travel to go, very annoying.

    Some random guy snapped this of me at the top of Antur Stiniog today on an iPhone and Airdropped it over.

    Buying an EMTB for the wife

    I went through the same thing, ended up getting her a Trek Rail 7 for £3700, was a great deal! I don't think wheel size makes a big difference for how fast (or slow) she is going.

    Wrist pain. Does bar rotation make a difference? (Update + back sweep)

    If you fancy selling your Spank bars and they are 31.8mm, I would gladly buy them! Can’t find them in stock anywhere.

    Hey iv done 350 miles on my new trek rail 9.8 gen 4 and it now displays error code 523001

    Also make sure the magnet is close enough, some people put a spacer behind it to get it closer to the sensor. It didn’t work for me but worth a shot for a quick fix.

    Hey iv done 350 miles on my new trek rail 9.8 gen 4 and it now displays error code 523001

    I had this on my Whyte e-160 when I first got it, my LBS replaced the sensor and the cable and it fixed the issue.

    Rail (625Wh) Trek Rail 9 GX Suspension Setup

    Thanks everyone, will drop to 55psi and remove the tokens. She’s using half the travel currently so definitely needs adjustment! On the rear, should I just use Trek recommendations?

    Rail (625Wh) Trek Rail 9 GX Suspension Setup

    Hey Everyone! I bought my wife a Gen 2 Trek Rail 9, she's very new to mountain biking, been out on it a couple of times, but I think the setup too harsh for her. Currently running 64psi, 5 clicks from open on compression and can't remember the rebound, think 5 clicks from closed. She weighs...

    Wrist pain. Does bar rotation make a difference? (Update + back sweep)

    I was looking in to the SQLabs bar but thought I’d try the Deity first, it has 9 degrees back sweep so a little more than normal. I would definitely recommend the Mobius X8, I physically would not be able to ride at the moment without it, it’s a life saver.

    Wrist pain. Does bar rotation make a difference? (Update + back sweep)

    Ended up going for a 50mm 31.8 Deity bar with some ODI Reflex grips. Will report back if they manage to help with the wrist pain. They won’t completely cure it as it was a bad injury, but anything to help take some pressure off whilst it’s healing.

    Recommendations - cranks - Bosch Gen 4

    Does anyone know if these will fit a Bosch Gen 4 CX? I have a Whyte e-160 if that helps. They also do a 155mm

    Wrist pain. Does bar rotation make a difference? (Update + back sweep)

    I really want to try a 50mm rise. I can get Spank in 30mm and 75mm, but 75 I think will be too much.

    Wrist pain. Does bar rotation make a difference? (Update + back sweep)

    Spank bars don’t seem to be in stock anywhere unfortunately. Would changing to a Deity 50mm riser with a 31.8 bore, from my whyte 30mm riser with a 35mm bore, make a lot of difference. Sorry to jack the thread!

    Wrist pain. Does bar rotation make a difference? (Update + back sweep)

    It was my first ride back to today since surgery but the pain was mainly from hits, wasn’t so bad going up, but coming down over the rocky stuff was extremely painful. I’ll try the Spank bars and see if they help, if not I’ll try the SQLabs I guess.

    Wrist pain. Does bar rotation make a difference? (Update + back sweep)

    Also keen to try the SQLabs 12, just out of wrist surgery for 2 breaks and a dislocation and need something to alleviate the pain, using a Mobius X8 wrist brace but keen to try these in a 45mm rise. Also looking at the Spank Vibrocore, but the SQLabs may be a better option? Has anyone used...
