    Yesterday's 36 km ride was awesome ! Everything just flowed beautifully. This creek crossing was way deeper than I expected, pedals were completely submerged, luckily I just made it through... Then I came across this !

    Holy Sh## ! Marbles on sand on a step downhill, with a 45 degree turn to prevent going over the bank ... zero traction 😬

    EMTB for £3000? Narrowed down to 3 options. Marin, Cube or Orbea.

    Have you looked at the Yamaha Moro ? It's the only manufacturer that makes everything the motor the programming the frame. It's a perfect set up.😎

    Ebike stands?

    Wow that is one expensive stand, add shipping + and you can get a nice Park Tools work stand for less ! The Park would be overkill but unfortunately the price point on that stand needs to come down by at least 50% to make it reasonable. Just my thoughts.(thanks for the review) 😎

    Drying out isn't the word for it, the mts are like dust already ! We're in the fifth year of drought and the forest fires are already starting.

    does your butt quiver when you find you've gone too far?

    Somehow, somewhere I know it has happened to you too ... The new trail seems like a nice shortcut until it starts to get steeper and steeper and it's you better look ahead or you're done .. I crossed the canyon to take this pic of the trail... only for goats.. I did see bike tracks initially...

    This was my top yesterday, plowing through the snow in the shady sections and then it's everywhere up higher. The creek crossing had rocks just perfect for portaging 😎

    Buying locally vs online

    Buying online or offline makes no difference,(except price is usually cheaper online) it all comes down to who knows, I mean REALLY knows how to fix it when/if needed. Good luck with that. 😎

    do you buy an ebike to keep for a long time? or sell on before warranty runs out?

    Warranty, what's that ? Seriously I have bought enough moto's with no warranty brand new that I don't even bother or think about any warranty. I do my own wrenching and find it way easier to just buy whatever parts I may need to get up and running again then dealing with the endless hassles and...

    Is Blood the only way ?

    I go through the stuff like water ! I do a complete flush out whenever I bleed the brakes on all my rides. So from what I'm hearing and seeing here it's a non issue to use other brands. Besides if I had a warranty claim I would just flush out and refill with royal blood, so expensive you need to...

    Is Blood the only way ?

    Perfect, I think I'm just going to go with the Maxima. I have used their other products for years without any issues. Thanks everyone for the advice and suggestions. 😎 cheers

    Is Blood the only way ?

    Well it seems there is more than just mineral oil at least in the Finish Line brand which is clearly marked on the container... but the Royal Blood has "secret " non revealed ingredients on its container 🤷‍♂️

    Is Blood the only way ?

    Hey about to bleed out my magura's and noticed the ridiculous price for their "special" mineral oil ! Yet Maxima offers mineral brake oil for 1/4 the price. Am I missing something "special " about the blood or is this price gouging or is it all about the colour ? 🤓

    Hot melt wax - the journey begins

    It's interesting that they never tested either of the two MO lubes I use. Test seems to be wax oriented, but what do I know. My experience with waxes hasn't been that impressive for the amount of work unless it's just a spray type like Maxima . But as they say do whatever sinks your boat 😎...
