Do you ride only off bitumen with this bike?

With that amount of climbing, I suspect it would be usable. I would also be considering whether my tyres are suitable. I do a bit of singletrack on Schwalbe Johny Watts tyres, and well, I have spilled a bit of blood demonstrating that they were not the best tyre choice :cool:

This is outside of my area of eh "expertise" but this is the first article that pops up in a Google Scholar search. It might be of interest to some. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11055783/

I had to Google 'gonionmeter' ... that name scared me :)

I have tried various saddle height calculators and had similar experiences to yours. So I now have my saddle height at a height that feels comfortable for me and have left it alone. It has been the same saddle height on six bikes or thereabouts over time (pre and post-calculators). I might try...

I have had mine since sometime ~ 2015, and so far so good. Hopefully stays that way :)

Winter here, so as I am not commuting anymore, I tend not to ride if rain is forecast. That said, I did commence a nine-day tour that lasted one day (because the bike decided not to charge). It is now in the bike shop awaiting a decision by Bosch as to whether they will replace the faulty...

Ideally, I like to average 90, reality is somewhere between 80 and 100. That said I tend to focus more on heart rate and keeping it in zone 2.

Have you tried the Cycplus AS2 Ultra? Just debating whether it is worth an extra AU$71 over the RockBros Mini Pump.

My Rohloff hub is locked to my bike with a Pinhead Skewer (it can be a pain for me with the key, so I suspect it would be even more so for a thief). I should get one for the seat as well, now that I think about it. Edit: I have an earlier version of the skewer. Looking at the website the...

With my Reise and Muller Supercharger, I use a D-Lock, in this case, an OnGuard 8001 Brute Standard U Lock. As it turned out, the first one I was sent came without keys, so it was replaced. As they didn't want it back, I tried to attack it with my Ryobi corded angle grinder. It was hard work to...

Not a separate phone (been there, tried that) ... I just use my Nothing phone mounted on a Peak Designs Out Front Bike Mount V2. It is there to make it easy to access my podcasts/music whilst riding.

MY 2024 SuperCharger 2 with Rodi Tryp 35 EVO 27.5" tubeless-ready" rims. These rims are drilled for Schrader valves. If you are thinking of converting to tubless, just be forewarned that Rodi may have drilled the valve holes larger than specified. I tried two different values, and the LBS did...

Garmin's latest firmware update for the '40 series and, presumably, the '50 series (I have not checked) indicates that Garmin and Bosch are now talking to each other. I have not investigated this further; I am not a Garmin GPS user, nor do I have a Smart System, but it may be of interest to you...

Glad you found a solution that works for you. For me, I have settled on a Mirrcycle Barend Mirror, which I find very effective. It also has the bonus of tucking under my bar end. Ergon GP3-L Biokork Grips by Andrew Priest, on Flickr
