  2. My experience: Emails to support can take a few to receive a reply. For one I had a reply within a day, but also some that have gone unanswered. Phoning and speaking to customer support is better and faster and the person I spoke to was helpful and knowledgeable. I had a Venu 1 with bad screen burn-in / deterioration. I sent it to them via courier and received an assessment and reply within a week. I was hoping for a freebie since it seems to have been a known issue with that generation / model, but they offered me a Venu 2 for a discount, which is still reasonable as the watch was purchased in Jan 2020 and out of warranty. The quote for the replacement was at a fixed repair rate since they don't have parts available for the Venu 1 anymore. I could also have chosen another watch, e.g. Forerunner 165 / 255, but that is seen as an upgrade even if retail pricing is less than the V2 and the discount they give for that is less. I paid for the V2 on Thursday and received it this morning, so overall it was a pretty decent experience i.t.o. customer service from them. I don't think many companies will offer this for an item that's out of warranty.

  7. I've used their motorbike fork oil in one of my previous forks.
  8. In a few years it might all be wireless (at least for top end specs), so problem solved
  9. Yes. Would probably be a little more difficult to do with an alu frame.
  10. Which is why I like what GG did with their frames and routing. The only place I prefer internal is for dropper posts.
  11. I'm in the process of doing a 1x conversion and yanked out the front derailer cable along with its padding. Hopefully it won't result in rattles from the remaining cables.
