I am about to try Schwalbe Albert Trail Pro Evo Tubeless Ready Trail Addix Soft E-50 Folding 27.5" Tyre Has any one tried this tyre. it is supposed to increase the contact area of the tyre by 30% !

Has anyone upgraded the rear caliper on a Riese and Muller Superdelite to the MT5 4 pot caliper .......? I am thinking of doing this as i overtightened my Magura 4 rear brake lever and cracked the plastic casing. My local bike dealer only has an MT5 lever in stock so I thought I would give it a...

Has any one tried putting a 29 inch front wheel on a Riese and Muller Superdelite to make it a Mullet?

I changed to Hope 155 cranks on my Superdelite, 3 years ago after a damaged meniscus in my left knee. This was a very good move for me and I have ridden 4000 miles with them. For older riders who are shorter than average this is a very good modification.

I have just fitted Super Trail 2.6 Nobby Nic (front) and a 2.6 Rock Razor ( Rear) on my Superdelite with Tannus Liners.....no problem fitting these under the original mudguards. So far I am really pleased with this setup.

I have a 2021 Superdelite GT Rohloff with Fox suspension and want to try out 2.6 inch tyres (ERTO 65-584) for the spring-autumn - ( Hans Dampf Addix Speedgrip SuperTrail front and Rock Razor Addix Speedgrip SuperTrail rear). Riese and Muller denote the fenders on the Superdelite as SKS A69R; SKS...

350 miles later the belt has come off again, so my LBS is ordering a new one and will recheck the tension. Thanks for everyone’s helpful comments and advice.

I also just experienced my Gates belt slipping inboard off the centre of the rear sprocket on my Superdelite. I was able to ride home but it was disconcerting as I was originally thinking some had gone wrong with the Rohloff ! I think it was caused when a small branch got entangled with the rear...

I am 5'7" with a 29 inch inside leg measurement and the 47cm frame is perfect for reach and standover height. I have the Fox suspension but did not select the GX version as I didn't want the extra 40 mm height. I had my LBS install the latest 100mm Fox Dropper post which is nice...

That is a first class write-up. I have the same bike and what you have written is spot-on.

Here is a photo of my wife’s new Nevo 3 on the Thule rack if that helps. I also use it for my 49 cm Charger 3. I know the wheelbase of the superdelite is slightly bigger but I think it should fit ok. I am thinking of upgrading my Charger 3 to the SD.

Dear Dave, very relevant post for me. I am 66.5 inches tall with circa 29 inseam. Currently I am riding a 49 cm Charger 3 which is just manageable but I want to trade up to Super Delite. Without the GX option I am in a quandry about the 47 or 51 SD frame. The 51 has a lower stand over height...

This is an extract of a letter I have sent to Bosch. I have also sent it to Riese and Müller who were unaware of the problem with the smartphone hub for iPhone 11 and 12 MAX users. If you have any other make of ebike such as Trek, Moustache etc .......please send a copy of this to the bike...
