Got a 2022 Sam2 6.9 with a Fox Van Performance Coil rear shock. Thinking of going down a progressive spring line and have been doing a bit of research and have come up with the following. Cane Creek 450-550lb x 65mm, looks around right as the standard shock came with a 450lb spring.
Wondering...
Have posted this elsewhere and over 100 people have looked at it but no reply. Just started looking at Miranda cranks as a replacement for standard cranks that are starting to keep coming loose and there 2 options in the 155mm length that I want to go, they both say that the are compatible with...
Got a creak down in the bottom bracket and it really felt like a pedal on the way out. Checked the pedal and sure enough there was a fair bit of lateral play in it. Tried nipping it up but to no avail, creak still there. Bit the bullet and bought new pedals only to find the creak still there...
Borrowed the wifes Kellys Theos for a mate to ride and we had 4 of us out riding, swapping bikes around as 2 blokes were new to emtb's. While I was on the wifes bike I noticed a clunking coming from the rear end. After having a look noticed that the bolt holding the derailleur hanger to the...
Just a quick one, is it possible through the Connect app to vary the amount of assistance given by the motor in the different modes, ie eco, tour, Emtb and Turbo as you can do on the Shimano e-Tube app?
Had a ball over the weekend riding some of my usual trails and comparing the difference between my old Merida and my new Sam2.
Loving it so far, observations so far are; finding the need to get over the front a bit more in those "loose gravel' in tight turns, not sure if its to do with the...
Just received and 2/3 put on my sticker (invisiframe) kit from Bikestickers eu. Must say it has turned out very nicely so far, have taken my time though and some of the pieces have taken 20 - 30 mins to get right with no bubbles and all stuck down.
Gave it away after about 3 1/2 hours last...
Just a thought and I wonder if anyone has tried it. I know the bike is designed for down, but I do have a lot of tight single track near home.
So was wondering if you left the 29" rear wheel in and moved the flip chip on the axle to the lower position whether the wheel would have enough...

NEW BIKE DAY TOMORROW!!!
Hence the impending lack of sleep, should have been Tuesday but I wanted a Kiox display and controller fitted and they had to get one sent up from Melbourne. Hopefully it arrives in time and it ready in time.
I have had a Merida for the past 3 years and after having to...
Have used both the free version and a purchased version for years now and have fantastic results, it's so much better than the Shimano Steps app. But, and it's a big but, I used my paid version to check on a mates battery health on his e8000 powered Norco Range.
Since then his motor developed a...
Was hoping for some owner feedback please.
At the moment my ride is a 2019 Merida, top of the line e160. After replacing the motor at 3500km, which was out of warranty and was a very expensive exercise at $2000 on a bike that I only paid $5000 in the first place, that second motor has now played...
Well after 3500km got an error code I can't get rid of. Had the odd error code in the past, usually the E013 on start up which displays in a box up on the display but this time it's different.
Started with the usual E013 that I couldn't get rid of by turning on and off a few times so did a 10km...
A couple of mates have both bought these bikes for their 'better halves', there seems to be no blue tooth connection with the controllers on there bikes. Great having the new motor but would like to play with settings for them.
Is this possible or am I missing something, do you really have to...
Just wondering if anyone has gone down this road? Reading a brake comparison and they were talking about stopping efficiency being so much better as the rotor size goes up. Seems a relatively simple way to get more out of your existing brakes. Would be keen to give it a go next time I replace my...
Can anyone shed any light on whether or not Shimano every made a larger capacity battery for their externally mounted batteries? Seem to remember reading about a while back, sort of the same as their 504Wh batteries but just a bit fatter from memory. Just did a search for them and came up empty...
Have just had something get stuck in my calipers and pulled it all apart to get it out. Once I had it apart, and with the wheel removed, I noticed that the pistons (4 pot Shimano Saints) weren't evenly out of the caliper housings. I pulled on the levers gently, so as not to pop the pistons out...
Hi all, have had to drop my motor down (2019 160 900e) to put in a new dropper post cable, have read that you can do it without, but had to do the same previously and didn't find it too much of a drama.
Just wondering if anyone out there knows the correct torque settings for the main motor...

Got the chance to buy a new 2018 Jam2 for my girl, anything I should be wary of, it's a great price at $3799 AUS for a new (although 2 years old) bike. I've got a Merida and it has the shimano motor the same as the Focus. Anyone got any ideas if the battery will have suffered from sitting in a...
