    Profile 1 and 2, have I got it all wrong ?

    Loving my m10, I've been on bosch gen 4 for 3 years with no way of altering any form of power output, so an app to alter all parameters of the motor is both a novelty and a welcome useful tool . My understanding of a profile is a blank page, either profile 1 or profile 2 can be set to be exactly...

    Is this tire ready for the bin?

    1st time in months i gave the bike a wash and spotted this. Its very odd, like an air bubble that has a very thin skin, it compresses very easy and moves the air about. I'm guessing its a disaster waiting to happen but there's no evidence of damage just like a blister on your skin. Hopefully the...

    Time to confess about dropper post !

    Ok, I get it, all the YouTube vids of how it allows you to get the seat out the way on mega down hill rocky sections and allows you to move around the rear of the bike without obstruction. I also note how all of these guys can pedal without sitting down. My confession is its the greatest...

    Its been 5 weeks since I ventured out, I normally do 4 times a week averaging 100 miles a week or more on a good week so nothing fancy. Busy with home stuff and work, a bit of laziness toped off with an accident involving my leg is my excuse for the lack of motivation. I ventured out last...

    I take it all back, seeing posts about chains only lasting 500 miles. My last chain maintained well and sympathetic gear changing on a sram set up lasted over 1500 miles.
