We have a chameleon HB.916 with purple and silver parts in the showroom at work. Nice bikes, but for that money - I'd be buying an e-MTB. I'm also planning a visit to the Hope Tech factory while over there. :) Thanks - is there more to Fort William than the obvious DH race trail? I've never...

Ayyyy, Planning a UK trip for May/June 2025 and hoping to get some form of riding in while there. Wales is off the cards at this stage, because reasons... so no Bike Park Wales - but looking at England, Scotland and potentially also Ireland (haven't planned that far ahead as yet). Anyone here...

I got an update from Pushys on my tyres. Michelin claim it's from sitting there unused for a prolonged period... Which is in line with some others' comments - but still a bit shit considering no other tyres have ever done this no matter the time frame of being unused... On or off the bike...

Well done all! Hugely jealous, but at the same time in my current state, the climbing alone in day 1 would have cooked my legs for the next 3 days... o_O Haha.

Haha, I've never tried to go for the right side and haven't ridden Bright regularly enough to feel comfortable with just sending it. There's a few I'm confident I'd make, but with all the injuries that have come out of Bright since Hero went in, I'm not yet game enough to try.

Sat down and threw together some clips from Saturday up at Bright. Good day, but damn it feels weird doing shuttles solo.

Interesting read - and these do certainly fall under 'lack of use', but to me it's no different to them sitting in a picking bay or bin within a warehouse for a year - which 9.9 times out of 10 probably wouldn't result in deterioration despite being a part of the same environmental changes as...

I've done a little looking around and finding numerous others with the same issue, with both their Enduro and DH tyre ranges... Some even after their first ride! Apparently Michelin don't deal with consumers when it comes to bike tyres, and it's up to the retailer to lodge a claim - so the ball...

Excuses for a tyre cracking like this, not Michelin m8.

I don't really find this to be an acceptable coverage of excuses. No other bike tyre I've ever had has done anything like this. For example: I had a set of Schwalbe Magic Mary/Hans Dampf on one bike for about 5 years with no cracking or rubber deterioration outside standard tread wear from...

Gents! Prior to unloading the bike at Bright yesterday, I happened to noticed my front tyre (Michelin Wild Enduro as per the thread title) had developed a nice ring of cracking most of the way around the tyre between the sidewall and side knobs. I bought this front/rear set in July 2020...

Above and beyond! ;)

Fagged up my big black Pole with some white zebra Dyedbro shit before heading to Bright for Blue Dirt shuttles on Saturday. Little bit of FLAYVA-FLAYV to spice things up a little... Yeow!

No, you couldn't.

That's okay, you don't really need a DH bike for Buller anyway. ;)
