    Wahoo Bolt, Need Help

    Yes. You need to use the ELEMNT Companion App on your phone. Start the device, then the App. When both are connected, switch the Creo on. Go to Settings -> SENSORS Set up sensors. In the list of Unsaved Sensors you might find as many as three new sensors, which will soon fold into one Sensor...

    Flat tires

    I do not quite understand. What did you do with the inner tube? Because you said "tubeless".

    Flat tires

    If the tape holds 1 bar or 15 psi overpressure then it must be made of the elephant skin! :D

    Flat tires

    What holds the air in the inner part of the rim? (That is, where the tape is?)

    Flat tires

    I assume your rims are all solid? I don't think lightweight fat-bike rims can be made tubeless.

    Bike jobs that took WAY longer than you ever imagined

    These are at least easy to buy! :) Fancy what happens when you lose or pull an OEM bolt... Besides, all that "reusable or non-reusable" chain link talk must be bullshit. How can a link that does not stretch be non-reusable?! A little story that may amuse you. On the latest group ride, I met a...

    I've passed this information to Fat Man, may it help! Thank you! His answer: 'I think these tubes are very good. The issue are my tyres, which are lightweight, so very thin. They are terribly worn with many punctures, especially since my rides in Hungary. It were thorns that attacked my tyres...

    Bike jobs that took WAY longer than you ever imagined

    I never do bike repairs after the dark or after drinking :) I learned that lesson pretty long ago! :D

    Bike jobs that took WAY longer than you ever imagined

    The bike jobs I hate the most: Pulling the tyre bed onto the rim during the tyre replacement (sometimes even ripping the tyre bead off the rim is a mission!) Once, I bought a Tire Bead Jack by Kool Stop (helping pulling the tyre bead onto the rim). The tool snapped soon :) Necessary to mention...

    Vado SL 2 Carbon LTD premiered today!

    I hope you can afford a new battery in less than 2 years :)

    I bought a Grizl:ON CF 9, AMA

    Bear in mind it is a German e-bike :) The tail-light is not a bad thing on a trail, especially on a group ride. No-one will ride onto you!

    Why Fat Bikes Do Suck :D, or The Asylum & Mt. Meran XC Group Ride The next expedition from the 'Fat Trails' started at 10:06 on Saturday in drizzle. 17 people total went on the group ride on that surprisingly warm (8 C or 46 F) day (any raining stopped soon!) Very early into the ride, we had...

    Or, when you in some mysterious way overtook all MTB group riders and got atop Meran Hill as the first one 😃 Riding a Vado SL! 😄

    I Could Have Ridden To The Beer Shop On My First Ride... Following my several online purchases, I replaced the chain on my Vado 6.0. Then, I decided to take a ride to the pharmacy; as I am going on a Cross Country group ride on Saturday, I also wanted to test the neoprene shoe covers by Rogelli...
