    Five ten free rider pro

    I wear them! Absolutely amazing shoe coupled with my DMR pedals!! Very comfortable. I’m a size 10. I have a pair in size 10 & they fit superbly, but would be too tight with my Seal Skinz socks in the winter.....so bought a pair in size 11 as well for warm & dry toes in the winter! Great shoe!

    EDDY CURRENT TIRE QUESTION

    I ran ECs in 29 x 2.6 front & rear, worked well! However.....I’m now running a Magic Mary up front & an EC on the back, again 29 x 2.6, amazing combination! Love love love them! I’m in Ireland & can confirm they work well in the wet! The EC lets go before the MM, which is just fine by me! ?

    Bike rack arrived today, it only takes a max 60kg so only one bike, which for most the time will be ok, brought it of a guy second hand for £70

    Great bike rack! I used to use the 3 bike one. (Bought a van....so the racks gathering dust in the shed for now.) Just thought I’d mention, my Levo is size XL. I had to buy the extensions to the wheel supports as the bike wheelbase is so long. Actually found them on Amazon when I went searching...

    Cush Core - would you recommened?

    It‘s only fair that I post an update. In short, I’ve gone back to Cushcore. My initial enthusiasm for Nukeproof ARDs was sadly misplaced. Pros: Cost Ease of fitting Trail side repair. Cons: Less cushioning (Really noticeable on some trails!) Less side wall support They stretch.......oh my...

    What did you buy your ebike this week?

    Any chance you could let us know how you get on with the vibrocore? Curious to see if they work as advertise, lots of rocky tracks around me. Anything that reduces the vibration is worth a look ? Thanks

    Transporting your ebike.

    Dude....so sorry, somehow completely missed this! I made the mount myself out of old scraps of wood. The waterproof boot mat is a generic one sourced on eBay. I like it because it flaps out over the rear bumper offering a wee bit of protection, but also keeping your legs dry etc when sat...

    Cush Core - would you recommened?

    I went from Cushcore to Nukeproof ARD. The ARDs slot in & out easily. If needed you could whip one out & throw in a tube to get you home. Cushcore tough to fit, although it does get easier with practice. Not a hope of popping one out trail side though. On the trail.....if the Cushcore is...

    Let's talk tyre inserts.

    Cushcore are superb........but...... I’m 115kg & they’ve done a superb job! Not a single puncture of any sort. Love the way they feel, love the sidewall support. Initial fitting with Maxxis Minnions.....ok.....not easy, but not too bad! Time came to change tyres........holy mother! ??‍♂️...

    What did you buy your ebike this week?

    Finally got round to rerouting the brake hose ? Oh.....& got new wheels & brake discs! Also trying Nukeproof ARD in both wheels.....be interested to see how they compare to Cushcore!? ??

    What did you buy your ebike this week?

    I’d never thought about it.......until now! ?? To be honest.......I’ve been meaning to redo both hoses. The front is too short & needs to be rerouted & the rear is too long! It might be time to finally sort them both out! ??

    Tow bar ebike rack

    I have this. Micksgarage.com The Car Parts Experts | Car Accessories | Roof Racks | Tools | Travel | Car Care | MicksGarage Very easy to fit, very stable, folds neatly when not in use. I ordered the extensions for the 29er Levo. I’m paranoid & use extra straps on the Levo. But it carries the...
