What did you buy your ebike this week?

[Jamze]

Not a bike part, but I got some lenses made up this week for a very old pair of Oakley Split Jacket frames that had been gathering dust for years as I now need glasses.

Found a great optician that do stuff for the military and shooting glasses and they're spot on. Much better than wearing my normal glasses that don't fit close enough and protect your eyes properly ?

Tempted now to get some clear ones made up for night riding.

Some DIYCarbonBikes.com Carbon wheels and DT Swiss 350 hubs...

The Kenevo got treated to an AXS dropper and AXS XX1 groupset, albeit with the 12 speed NX cassette due to the freehub I have.

I ordered a Gloworm Aplha Plus and an extra 2 cell battery from Luminous Light Systems | Luminous Mountain Bike Lights at 11.07am yesterday (Dec 7th) and it arrived today at 11.55am (Dec 8th). That's one day shipping from Greece using DHL.

Other companies, please take note!

Light is as I expected, very well made and with loads of accessories. Will pair it up with my X2 remote so I can control both lights individually from the bars.

Picked up a couple of lights this week to get me through these dark nights:

The lifeline pro 2000L and Moon Nebula rear light. Spot on for my purposes.

[Muttley]

Nothing too exciting but just had delivered some Ergon GA3 grips and Topeak digital tyre pressure gauge.

I bought the Shimano SL-MT500 I-Spec EV Lever for a clean and tidy look. It feels great and looks nice for the price.

 

[Stihldog]

A minor mod but I’m gonna try something different. I have the 35mm carbon bar so I bought the Bontrager 45mm stem (was the 60mm) mainly because it uses the Blendr system. I can now attach a lite or almost anything with the GoPro fitting in front of the stem.
At the same time I fitted the Kiox with a tether (used USB parts) which has a small plastic clip. We’ll see how this works.

 

[The Hodge]

Absolutely fantastic.

This is my 6th winter using them and the 2nd pair.

Just had an email saying that the expected delivery date into this country from Brisker is now the end of January .. ( ffs ) ..do they work well as a summer glove ? ?

amazon saying 1 left in stock

 

[The Hodge]

Call me a mug .. ( Hodge you're a mug ) ..but the supplier has been spot on in terms of keeping me informed..Ive previously had a telephone call from a very nice sounding young lady..and I appreciate that kind of feedback ..so I'm happy enough to wait..?
I've other gloves that will suffice in the meantime

 

[Pyr0]

The only thing I dislike about the 100% brisker gloves is the thin fabric between the fingers. It lets a bit too much wind through imho.
Although my hands don't get sweaty in them like they do in the hydromatic ones.

 

[Sander23]

Got some new grips from AliExpress.

 

[rydeezie]

After developing wrist pain(from work) i went looking for more ways to help alleviate any discomfort during rides

I found that my bikes with deity bars were more comfortable than my enves. After reading up on backsweep and upsweep, i learned that the 9°/5° On deity Is more forgiving on my wrist than the 8°/4° enves that are more tailored for racing than comfort. So i added a stealth deity to my collection paired with ergon grips

got new goggles and stem too

 

[HORSPWR]

So i added a stealth deity to my collection

That's the exact bar I run and I love it, way better on my wrists and thumb too!

How long will they keep you going for?

I reckon I could do 10000miles with that many pads, maybe more

Rock shox lyrik ultimate thanks to the guys on here helping me choose which to upgrade to

That's like £250 worth of pads
I hope you got a good deal because non finned Shimano pads are readily available from tons of places at a fraction of the cost. (eg. £5 a set)

Depends
I can go through at set in two weeks in Whistler

I rode 3300 miles and 500,000 ft this year and if i do the same or more next year then i will use all of them by the end of 2021

In the last two weeks: VARIA RTL 515, GARMIN 1030 Plus, and 1Up aluminum hitch rack. Time to take a break.

Yup i use the non finned D pads during winter season and switch them out to the finned N pads starting Spring

Lordgun $20 price is way better than what we get them for in the US at $40
That's if you can find them in the US
There have been shortages for months
The non finned are $30 out here but i managed to get them for $10

 

[rydeezie]

maybe i can sell a couple sets for $100 each ?
