I watch cycle racing all the time, they fail regularly! Why adjust it when it works perfectly 99.9% of the time? its not like the chain is dropping or anything...

Cheers Dave, having one on my Giant spoiled me... 😂 The old steed will be back, they emailed me today and said they can fix it for £660 which isn't worth it given the mileage it has done! The good news is they can transplant my PCB into a refurb motor for £400 so I'm going with that option...

My first proper ride on my new Dolan GXE, a tough but amazing day! With today being the only nice day for the foreseeable future I just had to get the new bike out for a big ride, I had my main battery charged to 98% and my range extender to 94% and my total range was showing a crazy 186 miles...

I meant to tell the story of my last Dolan bike which I purchased back in 2014, it was the Le'tape model with di2 also and just after I placed my order I picked up a viral infection! It floored me for almost 6 months, I had to put the bike in the attic for 5 months as I was completely unable to...

Its around 16kg (35lbs) including the battery! With the battery removed its a lot easier to carry up my 2 flights of stairs than the Giant!

Thank you Stefan, yes its a 12 speed with 50x34 front chainrings and 11x34 rear cassette! I was quite surprised it came with the mudguards and rack fitted but very happy it did given the rain! 😂

New bike day and as mostly happens it arrived late and didn't leave me much time for a ride, spent about 45 minutes replacing the stock saddle with my own...what a faff that was! Anyway I managed a 25 mile ride and I'm very impressed indeed, it is so comfortable and the di2 shifting is...

They kept to their word and the bike is on its way, I told them to make sure the battery is fully charged... If its at 20% they will be getting a phone call...of course its now showing rain around 4pm tomorrow! :rolleyes:

Nope, I even tried editing it and it wouldn't let me change it! 😂

I was told it would be around 15 working days and its only 11 so far...no idea why my text is in bold!

Still no bike sadly and it won't be here tomorrow either, not happy after being told it would be early this week at the latest... They have promised to send it out tomorrow on a before 12pm delivery on Thursday though and the weather is looking great, I guess my 100 mile first ride will be...

I managed to squeeze another analog ride in and got October off to a good start, yet another blustery day of course and silly me decided to take on a load of climbs on the way back into a 20-25mph headwind... 😂 I will probably pay for it tomorrow, I made my way NE with a lovely tailwind to...

Thank you but having just shelled out on a new bike its not something I would really consider! I might revisit it if my motor from my old bike is unrepairable though...as a last resort!

I emailed Dolan about my bike and this was the reply! "We are looking at the end of this week/start of next week at the latest to get your bike dispatched." I'm getting excited and really hope it arrives before the weekend as I would love to take it to the final motorcycle race meeting of the...

Possibly my last analog ride for a while, dependent on my new bike arriving this week...no updates as yet though but Friday will be 20 working days since I placed my order and they say they usually deliver within the 20 days so here's hoping I get some good news shortly! No news about my motor...

Another nice ride on the Giant Hybrid, I'm really getting used to the bike now and enjoying it a lot more! In fact I think by the time I get another e bike I will be fit enough to challenge Pogacar... 🤣 Maybe if I get a day with light winds and no rain I might take on a 100 miler but not in my...

What a place to ride a bike, your photos are spectacular! 👌

Its smooth on the outside, I'm pretty sure its part of a bearing!

I successfully removed the old motor today and sent it to the Ebike Motor Centre, now its a nervous wait to see if the PCB is intact and can be fitted to another motor! I really don't think the old motor will be repairable, this chunk of metal dropped to the floor when I was removing the motor...

There may be some light at the end of the tunnel regarding my Yamaha motor, I received an email from the motor centre earlier! "If your circuit board is okay, in theory we could just put that in a good Yamaha PWX motor, that might be an option." This sure got me excited but its all dependent on...
