  1. I Prefer Products that Don't Break. That Buys Me Brand Loyalty. Having to Exchange Something Shows Poor Manufacturing and Inadequate Quality Control.
  2. The Fork Dampers also Need Oil Change Now and Again. Seems to go Quite Dark after a While.
  3. Your Weigh Should be a Concern. 🙉 Speak to Experts at a Bicycle Shop for Advice 🏏
  4. Stole Bikes Are Mostly Stripped for Components and Sold Openly in Advertising Websites. Worth More Dead than Alive.
  5. Charge it At home on USB. During the Run it will be very Battery Efficient and Last You Many Extra Hours. I Would not use direct Sunlight to Charge the Device as it will raise the Temperature of the Device.
  6. You Have Beautiful Bikes 🤑
  7. Agreed. At a Cost. A good Set of Wheels Will Cost You More than a Complete Cheap Bike I Like to buy Stuff that's "Ready to Fly"😁
  8. My Spin Bike Uses 2XAA Batteries and It's 22 Years Old.
  9. About 20K You Got to Pay Extra for Quality Products Like Merida or Trek that can handle the Weight but you don't have to do a Wheel Upgrade Straight Away. I Know Some 120Kg Guys Riding Merida Big Nine and Merida 120 MTB's (No Problem).
  10. 135Kg -15Kg (Bike) = 120Kg (Still Very Good) I Agree, Trek is Also a Premium Bike.
  11. Merida Big Nine Bikes are Rated at 135 KG out the Box.
  12. Brand Loyalty is a Good Thing Keep It Up.
  13. I would probably buy the Scott Because I prefer Shimano and Like the Brand The Silverback has a RS Judy vs The Suntour XCR on the Scott. RS is Better than Suntour on Small Bump Compliance. Tough Choice !!!!!
  14. Opened a 2016 RS Monarch RL Aircan due to a Vacuum Lock Problem. Found A Lot of Grease Inside the Aircan. (Was serviced recently by a LBS) Cleaned it and Lightly Greased all the O rings. Working 100%
  15. Please Consult the Results of the 2023 Cape Epic.
  16. Tubeless One Has One Advantage. You can Plug a Simple Puncture from the Outside Disadvantages. Heavier than Tubes. More Expensive to Run. Mucky Dirty.
  17. Riding the Hood Visiting Dunvegan.
  18. Then You need a Bike with 4 Wheels.
  19. You need to budget much more for all that Weight. Go into the Bike Shop for Advice on a Touring Bike.
  20. It Will Buff Right Out.
  21. I've Never had a problem with Motul Fork Oils.(Available in 20W (Heavy)) But I'm a bit of a McGuyver. I will never use Motor Oils (Engine Oils) in a Fork Lowers because It Stained Stuff when I tried it. So I Turfed It. Engine Oils Have a Lot of additives.
  22. He's a Low End Scammer Should have taken CYPHER CARBON EMPIRE instead.
  23. Riding The Hardtail in the Hood.
  24. During Social Rides Do Drink Beer Before at Halfway and After the Ride.
