Who would create such a monstrosity?

Thats what its about, pushing yourself, and then walking like a duck for two days. Nice ride

Its an aluminium frame and I presume youre referring to a large direct drive hub. You really should fit at least one torque arm, the dropouts will quickly fail and leave you with ripped out motor cabling. 2000w isnt crazy power anymore, hydraulic brakes would be good, but the quality and disc...

I fell off the bike giving my friend a seater on the bars. I wrenched the top of my thumb from under the nail and a half inch back right off, a big flap which I pushed back together and held with tape. It turned black and fell off. So I had this huge bit missing, thumbprint gone. A thick hard...

Its in good nick, but still a bit that'll do you cant see it.

Solder is for ever, o rings are tick tocking to failure

After that ride Im having a philisophical crisis. Our first problem is we remember doing it on motorbikes, and there lays the issue. The bikes shrunk that entire area to blip..blip, tear it all up. Start in the town ,in Aberystwth for tea and biscuits. Exhilerating but far removed from the...

Im a little concerned at Bosch turning up the power, is the motor designed to cope or are we knee deep into the safety margin?

So many middle aged women and shop workers on old high end emtbs, I presume passed on or borrowed. They are everywhere, the barman at the hotel was stood outside smoking holding the battery from his Cube. The Atherton bikes are a very particular brand to represent his position in the sport, I...
