    Center stand for R&M Delite GX Rohloff (2017/2018)- Any available?

    I'm just wondering if some kind of centre stand is available for my bike? Either a portable one or one that can be fixed to the bike itself. I'd like one so that the rear wheel is easier to remove. I have a centre stand on my motorcycle and this makes servicing much easier. Anyone heard of such...

    Stock Suntour vs Fox Float 34 Forks

    Which one did you fit last year? I ask because on a motorcycle for instance both the front and rear shocks have an effect, so they both have to be taken into consideration.

    Stock Suntour vs Fox Float 34 Forks

    If you do replace your Aion OEM fork for the Fox Float ones could you do a video or some photo's please? It would be helpful as I hope to do the same later on (on my Delite). Thanks. David PS Would you be fitting a Fox rear shock as well at the same time?
