    Reverb problem

    I just reinstalled a Reverb stealth, it's been off the bike for a few months but was working fine when I removed it. I've bled the hydraulic line a few times, got rid of all the air pockets but the remote button is now rock solid. If I wind out the speed adjuster I can get a bit of travel out if...

    Stuck Cassette

    I have a wheelset that i removed from my Anthem, never used, been sitting in the shed for a few months. Apparently the incredible hulk has a job doing up cassettes at Giant. I've tried pipe on the spanner, hammer, swearing. Bent my chainwhip and still no luck. How do I get this fucker off?

    Funn hubs

    I'm looking at carbon wheel options for my Stumpy 6fattie. I have Zelvys with hope pro2evo and pro4 on my other bikes, but they no longer list the hopes as an option. They currently have Funn, i9 and Onyx. I like something loud so the Onyx is out, I know the i9 is good but its an extra...

    Fox forks travel issue

    I have a 2016 Anthem with a fox 32 performance fork with 100mm travel. It is bottoming out around 15mm from the top of the stanchion, travel from fully extended to bottomed out is just over 90mm. Is this normal behavior for this fork?

    Anyone got a Prologo saddle?

    I bought this Prologo X15 in May this year. The graphics started falling off after a few weeks, but I don't care about that. I noticed last week that the cover material has started coming away from the base of the seat, allowing mud & water to get inside, and just now noticed that the outer...
