Thanks for this

I sold my bike with an upgraded Lyric 3.1 charger damper. I still have the Select plus charger damper. Does anyone know if this will fit in a RS 35 ? to replace the Motion control system ? Same travel forks ?

Best trail at the moment in my opinion is Murate. with the new additions it is riding spectacular. Murant did an absolute stellar job there and I keep going back

If your motor is still under warranty and it fails, it will be replaced very quickly. I think the longest had to wait for a new motor was 2 hours. However, if the warranty is over you have two options. Purchase a new motor with a specialized assist option which reduces the new motor price (about 22k) to lower amount (a fair offer savings from specialized) . Or send it to PE to refurbished with better seals, stronger sprag clutch and thicker more robust belt for about 12k - this is the company https://www.ebikemotorcentre.com/brose-motor-upgrade-service/ And this is the SA representative- www.ebiketechservices.co.za Either way it's going to cost. I would personally go with the second option as the motor will come back better than a new one from specialized, but you won't have the new warranty that comes with a new motor. That just how my mind works. other people might have different options

Will be heading to Fugitives drift the weekend and wondering if anyone has dome some riding there? Are the trails worth taking the bike all the way? Have done the battlefield tours many times so though while my group does those I can get a cycle in.

I think this is where the problem starts.... Online stores selling items like this and stating they are MTB E-Bikes.....

Also did it have cranks or foot pegs?

Firstly - if it is throttle assist then it should not be on the trail. And if it is a normal ebike (peddle assist) , Id like to know how they ruining the trail? Are they spinning wheels out going uphill and roosting? Are they skidding into corners? and dragging there brakes at every opportunity? Are the bikes just to heavy and causing premature wear? Are they just going to fast? Curious about this.

Would love to know where this trail is?

That frame is only 100G heavier than my Ibis Mojo C in large. should be easy to get a 12kg bike

Should be possible, I converted mine to activate a dropper post, so a remote lockout might work. although I removed the click click bits and it just turned freely for the dropper.

Can Anyone recommend a good wheel builder in Cape Town? And does anyone have any experience with the Lyne Carbon rims (AMP/Enduro)?

My experience of fox: 1. the air shaft comes from the factory with way to much grease... do a air shaft service and use the correct amount of slick honey. 2. on 2 sets of fox I had the fork bushing were way to tight. I sent them in to Push to be corrected and came back smooth as silk. Not sure if Stoke or RBC can sort out tight bushing for you? Yes my RS have always felt way better out the box. but get the Fox sorted and its brilliant.

Ill have to keep my eyes open then on Sunday. Just this one little pond that is rather mank though next to the bricked road.
