WTB is the same, Maxxis not so much.
What did you do to your EBike this week?
- Thread starter Mik3F
- Start date
Without the fold in the bar and the little hole under the grip to allow the cable to be hidden, what did you do to route the cable? I know it has to go outside the bar, but did you just ziptie it or use something else?This week was Fatbar Lites.
More than twice the rise, half the weight of the stock bars (not I care much on a Rail) and £75
First test ride out this morning, much better on the posture

My stock ones were 15mm rise, and chose to get 40mm, so effectively an inch higher in old miney.Had a look i could possibly get them as a Xmas present. Not sure about what sweep and rise though
They are 760mm long as opposed to the 780mm of stock, but I'm not missing the cm either side.
Yes that would do cheers
I went for the fatbar V2 in black as I fancied the 40 mm rise 800mm wide. All out in the lite but at 50 gramms heavier that's not as heavy as my sandwich. Cheers £69 freepost as weel

Mulleted my Whyte e160, and shaved just under 900 grams off the rear end even with a burlier tyre. Just got to order the shape it link now.
Well done. I took vacuum to pieces today as cable was cutting out . It's in the garbage now £130 for new one

Removed and fitted in about 10-15 mins
When I did my fox forks last year took about 90 mins due to decals being welded on and coming off in tiny tiny pieces was sick of my life that day
Always used Mt500 Endura lycra shorts , had about 6 pairs over last 20 years. They still use shorts with that name but the ones available I have seen in shops are half the thickness and Chamois padding is the same pretty thin . I looked at the undershorts liner with same name but no mention of the padded arse bit. Shops I have tried have not been much help. I wonder how good the ones in pic are , the Chamois is not mentioned . Can't be bothered faffing about ordering stuff to send back . Thing is shops don't seem interested, I remember when I could go to a shop and order something now they don't offer that option.
I actually bought a new rear one for levo . Whel been off and on so much the threads looked worn. June 2019.

I was after some 155mm cranks for the Ep8 to replace the 165mm cranks on the Moterra...then I found these for the princely sum of £44. Shimano 160mm em900 cranks for the EP8, that's approx a 75% discount on most UK prices. Not 155mm but hell they're £44 and should cut down the pedal strikes. From Bike parts.co.uk, link below.

Yes after 5 years I got Hope 155 cranks. Definitely not as much pedal strikes.I was after some 155mm cranks for the Ep8 to replace the 165mm cranks on the Moterra...then I found these for the princely sum of £44.

I did that on my Focus Jam2. In effect the Revelation fork was turned into a Pike.
Too clean , or is it new.

Bought in August! It’s a dream!
I just bought some Muc-off tubeless valves, plus other stuff in their 25% off sale. While I was paying, my Norton anti-virus package chipped in with a "Comeback10" code (it might be "Comeback 10) which was another 10% off.
Their all a dream I think . Five years and 10,000 miles and still loving my Levo enjoy

Have you fitted this with the mini remote ?
Nope, LED remote (which came stock).
Previously had a Kiox 300, so already had the necessary display cable.
Whyte E160 RSX fitted with original AXS now over 2.5 years old so I renewed the 2032 cell battery in the gear selector. I reckon 2+ years is about the right time to change any non rechargeable battery rather than wait for it to die out on the trail...especially in colder weather..........tcu/Purion/ AXS pods/wireless remotes.
Ding-Ding-Ding.Seen a nice bell.
Some of us would appreciate more details.
I use a jingle-bell mounted on my bar. It’s always on…but after a few rides I don’t hear it.
They must love you in July. Not sure on which one yet. I need two actually or faff about changing it from bike to bikeDing-Ding-Ding.
