Oh you’re NZ based? Cool! A few of us on here now

You can get solutions for eMTB - I’m using the system from www.aeroe.com and have mounted it on my specialised Turbo Levo eMTB. This is a full suspension bike and this racking system works: No seat post bag so I can still use my dropper post. Aeroe racking system very versatile and I swap...

Mounted on rack on the right hand side. Same bike; different bag configuration and mounted under the saddle

Couple of previous discussions on this here: https://forums.electricbikereview.com/threads/garmin-varia-usage-on-ebikes.45338/ And https://forums.electricbikereview.com/threads/garmin-varia-radar.48115/ I’ve used the under saddle bracket on one of my bikes and on my gravel bikepacking rig I...

Thanks for update - sorry to hear of your achilles tendon injury. I snapped my achilles tendon years ago playing basketball and it's never really been right since so you do want to look after it. Lovely photos of the journey too - thanks for sharing!

Good looking bike - drop bars look cool. Not sure about the positioning of the motor boost control on the handlebars. I think on the hoods would make more sense. Big push on the RX tracking features - nice if you live in the 12months free zones (which I don’t). Certainly looks sleek. So R&M...

I’ve never been a fan of the design of these bikes and the rack always looks…. Odd to my eyes. The move to a pinion geared motor is intriguing! Everything I read suggests Pinions are awesome and I think geared motors are the future for e-bikes but the integration of the motor on these two bikes...

It’s a great set up either way - you’ll have a ton of fun! I’ve gone with this for my rear rack/bag option: https://aeroe.com/ Using that rather than a seat post bag as means I could mount on my eMTB that has a dropper post as well if wanted to. One system, could go on my R&M, eMTB or...

It’s looking awesome mate! Especially the custom frame bag - sounds like an exciting adventure in your future. Can I ask a question? Given the hauling power of the eBike and fact you’ve got front fork panniers on your bike, going super aerodynamic probably not the #1 factor in terms of bags…...

Looking really good mate! I was thinking about front fork storage for my gravel bike. I usually ride with a water bladder backpack which is great for fluid hydration, but also means carrying up to 3kg on your back when it's full. I was thinking about storing water on the forks so may look at...

I’m also in South Island (chch) and took about 3-6months to spot another one… in fact it was a pair, with stunning custom pink paint jobs: I saw quite a few more in Switzerland & Germany in January this year

C Could you have placed your wheels on the 'rail' to the right of the stairs and used walk assist mode to walk it up the smooth part of the stairwell? I have a Rohloff on my custom bikepacking gravel bike (not electric) and was also disappointed to get an oil leak around the 2K mark. ruined...

The irony was I riding a very, very safe trail at slow/moderate speeds so it’s inexplicable how it happened and the injury is completely disproportionate to the risk unfortunately. Knee pads would likely be great protection against abrasions and impact injuries. I suspect I must have applied...

thank you my friend - I'll be back on the bike in a few months!

Great looking bike - enjoy! I’ve got the Matte Curry version and love it so much. Sadly, I’ve not been able to ride it for seven weeks after falling off my eMTB and rupturing my quadriceps tendon. I needed a surgical knee reconstruction and looking at 9-12months for full recovery. 😔 This is...

About 30cm (forum not letting me upload photo right now )

I love that bike shops are engaging customers in a way like this -high engagement. I wish my LBS did this stuff.

I saw this from an Auckland, New Zealand based eBike store. They're hosting a guy who biked the length of NZ on a Delite as part of the Tour Aotearoa route (Tour Aotearoa: Home) and then came back via the Sounds to Sounds route (Tour Aotearoa: Sound to Sound) Impressive stuff! Looks like it's...

Varia all the way for me - I mount with a cheap bracket off Amazon on my seat. Works perfect. All the reviews of the Varia with camera say it sucks. I don’t have the camera version but I do have a Garmin Dashcam that has the same camera and app software to connect and THAT does suck too. To the...
