    Electric cycle pump for Ebike available in UK?

    Hi, So, I've just got my first puncture on my Delite and had to push the bike 3 miles back to work. I need an ELECTRIC cycle pump, so I can inflate the tyre at the roadside after fitting a new inner tube. Are there any electrically powered cycle pumps that can be charged from the bikes built-in...

    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...

    Has anyone got a list of Torque wrench values I can use for checking the fasteners on my Delite GX Rohloff 2018 (the one with Bosch Powerpack 500 batteries)? Maybe a dealer is willing to share the values they use when they service these bikes. Riese and Muller referred me to the user manual...

    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?

    Ergon GP1 compatible bar end mirrors-Are there any?

    Thanks for your speedy and helpful replies. I've just ordered one of these. https://www.bumm.de/en/products/ruckspiegel/produkt/913-612vlgae.html? I've ordered a Cycle Star E version as it looks as if you can mount it on the right or left. As we drive on the left in the UK I mainly need the...

    Ergon GP1 compatible bar end mirrors-Are there any?

    Are there any Ergon GP1 (hand grips) bar end mirrors available for my Delite? I have had a look on the Ergon website and there doesn't seem to be anything available. I don't want to remove the grips yet but long term I'd like to fit a jones H bar. Anything I bought now would have to work with...

    Using a spare Bosch Powerpack 500 battery-Anyone tried it?

    I'm considering buying a spare Powerpack 500 that I can carry in my rucksack for longer journeys. My R&M Delite has 2 batteries and each of them have consecutive serial numbers as they came new with the bike. Is there a problem with just fitting a spare? Does the Bosch system allow it without...

    First Rohloff oil change-Easy Peasy.

    Just done my first Rohloff oil change (at 1055 miles). I followed this youtube video made by SJS cycle in the UK. Made sure I had a tea break half way through (as suggested in the video-I need no excuse for a cuppa though). I made sure I ran all through the gears and I put in a new drain...

    Has anyone fitted a Faiv ( https://faiv.de/) front rack to their Delite or other R&M bike? My bike is a 2018 Delite GX Rohloff with Aion forks. If so are they easy to fit and what are they like in general? Thanks.

    E14 reversal

    Has R&M (and Rohloff) changed their mind yet on retrofitting the E14 system to a Delite GX Rohloff (2018 chain drive) with manual shifting.? I was told by R&M directly that they won't do it. I'm happy with the manual system for the time being but might consider an upgrade later on.

    Bottle mount position/spacing-Is it the same on 2018 and 2020 Delite?

    I noticed that the 2020 Delite/Super Delite has a front rack available that bolts onto the bottle mount holes. Will this rack bolt onto my 2018 model Delite? Just wondering if the spacing of the holes is the same. Thanks. David.

    Delite GX 2018-Which seat dropper post?

    I'm thinking of fitting a seat dropper post on my 2018 Delite GX. As the R&M website only has the specs for the latest models can someone tell me which dropper post would fit my bike? Thanks. David
