    We're looking like a bit of a double act on here this evening! 😂

    Hardtail for the missus

    In all honesty, I'd go full-sus, 'cos she'll want one in six months anyway! 😂

    What did you buy your ebike this week?

    Nice new set of Michelins, for winter, which I then took out for a good thrash round the local. Climbing grip from the DH34 is insane!!! Despite the greasy mud and roots, not a single slip on the way up, even on more tech stuff too. On the way back down though, there was plenty of control, but...

    Haibike Launch 18KG LYKE eBike - Fazua Ride 60

    @Rob Rides EMTB Couple of Lyke-related questions if I may: 1) Do you happen to know the shock eye-to-eye and stroke measurements please? 2) How did you feel the Lyke rode in comparison to the Shutte SL and Fuel EXe? 3) How long for the ride review vid? Cheers,

    Wyldbuck?

    Thanks both, pretty much what I had thought. Kilham5, very much appreciate your detective work there 👊

    Wyldbuck?

    Anyone seen or ridden one of the two Wyldbuck bikes? Seem to be Yorkshire based, using Bafang motors. Just came across them and wondering if anyone (Rob!) has been able to test one..?

    Aggressive thread reply posts

    I've had rubs with some folk on here, but rubbing is racing. Nobody has bothered me enough to want to ignore them, or worse, and that's from someone who is neurologically diverse and has significant mental health challenges. If I can stomach everyone, I imagine most will be able to! At the end...

    Upgrading drivetrain

    Clutch mechs are infinitely better for chain retention, compared to non-clutch types. You can also buy after-market chain retention devices and may be able to find one to fit your frame/chainring/motor.

    Is there a better e-bike for under £5k than the vitus e-sommet vrs?

    Fairly sure Vitus is a CRC/Wiggle exclusive brand.

    Advice on buying first emtb

    I have owned motors from Bosch, Shimano, Brose (Spesh), and Mahle (Spesh). All bar the Mahle and the Brose/Spesh 1.3 motor have had faults and been replaced. That said, my bikes work hard - I had one that did 8,000kms+ in 12 months, and it was one of 3 bikes! The motor and it's integration into...

    Is there a better e-bike for under £5k than the vitus e-sommet vrs?

    Genuinely intended you no offence, it was aimed at informing the OP and only that. :)

    Is there a better e-bike for under £5k than the vitus e-sommet vrs?

    No, I just type blindly and hope to hit something... Your post, plus the one before it, mention the E-Sommet, though with no mention of the modes being at all adjustable. So, given that you mentioned this as a feature of the Rise, I thought I would helpfully point out, for the OP, that it's a...

    Data tagging for bikes - new Muc-Off product.

    Have to be honest, neither of them are solutions I'll be employing, much more likely to go with Rob's recommendation!

    Is there a better e-bike for under £5k than the vitus e-sommet vrs?

    You may be but, given that you didn't explain it, the OP may not be aware. My reply was for him/her.

    Is there a better e-bike for under £5k than the vitus e-sommet vrs?

    You can do this on any Shimano, Specialized/Brose, Giant/Yamaha, plus others. I can second the Vitus warranty. Current worldwide issues not withstanding, it's just a case of a brief email/chat exchange and a few photos. No quibling, no hassle, just sorted. So far, this has proven easier than...

    Data tagging for bikes - new Muc-Off product.

    Given the propensity for filling every void with tools and spares these days, Muc-Off have been working on a new solution to data tagging your bike. An intriguing solution, which can apparently only be mounted in the rear wheel, though I don't know why, certainly keeps it hidden! It only works...

    How many % discount you had when you bought your eMTB?

    If you can get one, go Vitus. Prices are very reasonable (compared to other eMTBs) and specs are great. Check out the 2022 range, just released.
