This +1. I've found if my saddle is istoo high I've got weight supported by my legs, resulting in a sore ass Also, as someone mentioned above, if you haven't ridden in a while or are new, in our groups experience it takes 4 to6 weeks. Good luck!

Well done! I get a recurring creak on my Cannondale Supersix Evo (roadbike). I use a Wheels Manufacturing thread together BB with Shimano 10 speed cranks. The BB has a thin o ring each side on the portion that goes into the frame but I have added a very thin one on each side as I think it creaks where the faces of the BB contacts the frame. The rust could be from washing and underlubed in the build process? I've had a Rockshox fork underoiled from new and Enduro bearings with less than adequate grease in from new. Good luck!

Not sure about how your through axleworks but if you have, clean and grease dropout contact points. Also make sure RF pivot and joints are lubed. On my MTB with eagle GX and oval ring my RD clutch creaked. Also good idea to make sure it's clean between cleat and shoe, copperslip cleat bolts and bit of dry chain lube on pedal contact points and pedals clean and lubed. If necessary open ordals and clean and regrease. I've chased many creaks and groans over the years. Once I found it was my helmet inner bumping and creaking over certain bumps. Good luck

Ah cool. My brother went to MV and was happy with the fitting so we'll do the same. Thank you

Cool. I think that's where we're going. I thought Ruan also operated at Melo as the pricing/layout on the interweb is exactly the same?

And the Decathlon was on my list I think I'm going to go for the Marvel one and keep it for when my latest Wahoo stops working.

Thank you, I will check them all out. 👍💪

Besides the 2 ads in classifieds, can someone recommend a reasonably priced bike fit in the Fourways area. It's for an MTB if that matters. Thanks in advance.

Any spec difference between the Magene and Marvel? Google says similar price?

There are going to be way smarter contributions than mine but my concerns would be: Lots of own brand components (Z) 1x10? What bottom bracket and it will likely fail very soon The replaceable hanger thing is pretty much on all bikes - I doubt theirs is proprietary to them but if it is it's better to buy a few.... Are the tyres tubeless ready? Conclusion: You get what you pay for and to upgrade components will cost more than double the bike.... Good luck. Interesting bike, I've never seen one.

Difficult to beat that price for both transmitter and strap

Good point. I'm referring to both. I've had the traditional issues with freezing HR values and press studs breaking after a year or two on my Wahoo Tickr thus I'm looking for a replacement strap and transmitter.

Ah ok, that makes sense......he must have been full of Christmas spirit....

And that's kind of before the Cradle, but maybe?

Yip, but the only one I can think of is right at the top, above Cradle Boutique Hotel but it's not that high and it corners below.
