Re: Incoming, ebike day.... Sorta not for me.


Weeksy , your logic is floored, you can ride a standard ebike equally as hard as a normal bike -but with the same effort you'll just be going faster.
But ,all the options are available .
If you want to go faster,turn up the assistance, even faster - get it chipped.
If you want to make the ride ...

Forks, drop air. If Fox its 32mm socket. If Rockshox its a cassette tool. Its a 30s job.

come on, spill it.


Thought I already had? Anyway, F-type convertible V6s! :thumbup:

Just had to disapprove a post and ban a user, nothing that uncommon there. But they'd registered and asked a question about a particular bike company as though they were just a random person. But their email address was from that company !!! Fucking muppets.

Re: PG's Mega Youtube / Instagram/ Vids Thread.

IT's getting close for us to head to the Alps for the boys first World level race.

This is a preview of this weekends one that we thought about making but due to house stuff, never went.... sadly it's now delayed on the house so we could have done it.

Re: The journey from small guy to teenager...

It seems quiet now. I think it was the rocker bearing. Well not the bearings as such but some dirt or a sticky ball.

We can head off racing tomorrow without any issues. Although we're not taking that bike 🤪🤪

Re: New MTB day. The one that should have stayed.

Proper ride today. more hills and more distance than i'd planned, but some days you just have legs and lungs that work well and it's rude to not let them play when they are good. So me and crust went for a decent one, a cider and then a bit more pedalling home from there.

Re: Demo ride : Specialized Levo SL.


These days you don’t have to choose low power or small battery to get a lightweight ebike, my Megamo is 21.7kg and there’s a carbon version and a lighter weight version that are both around 20kg.
With the avinox motor being so adjustable you can set power to lower levels and with the 800wh battery ...

Re: The journey from small guy to teenager...


Seat frame and seatpost?


Yeah doesn't seem to be, partly as i've cleaned and checked that, but partly because it does it when standing up too.

I'm 70% sure now it's the rocker pivot bearings, which i've just swapped and i'm slightly hopeful that's fixed it... because if it's not that... then i ...

Re: Demo ride : Specialized Levo SL.


Sadly there aren't many of us... 90% of my riding mates are on full power eBikes, and most of them use all of the power all of the time, so I need a full power to keep up with those boys!


Currently not an issue here. Me and Crust have ridden together for 20+ years and have switched between ...

Re: Mod 1 - failed




Perhaps consider the skills underpinning slow speed control, rather than a need to do U turns.


Yeah I know what you are driving at, but I do slow speed control all the time. U turns pretty much never, but that's the thing in the test.

Re: Would you have an electric car if you had the money for a new car and were in the market for one?




Well, I just sold my milk float. I have to say it was a faultless car for me to own and the whole Tesla experiance was a very enjoyable one. :thumbup:

FWIW, I sold it through CarWow and it was a pretty good experiance and it achieved £1800 more than WBAC offered.


I take it, the Tesla was ...
