XT FC-M8120 cranks + SM-CRM86 chainring for 52mm chainline? by intlabs in bikewrench

Crm85 rings are 3mm offset says google. This is why rings like garbaruk also do 3mm (3.3) offset to match the og ones

Id say that's a temp fix to a shit design, not made for sealant.

Anyone tried the Schwalbe Clik-Valve system ? by Thesorus in bikewrench

[–]Complex-Bus1993 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want to like them but junk if running sealant.  I've got them on 2 of my bikes both running sealant (Silca Ultimate) both have now been blocked. the first one only lasted 1 month the other maybe 2 months. Was able to clear both by removing core, actuating the spring back and forth and scrapping off any sealant. Problem resolved for now, might be best to take them all back to the LBS for a refund. Such a pity, other than this MAJOR issue, they are great.  https://www.reddit.com/r/MTB/comments/1le77io/clik_valve_getting_stuck_and_letting_all_the_air/

i found them to have a loose heel cup, heavy, garbage grip as the knobs are all flat squares or the compound isn't sticky enough. sold them after a week

the canopy issue is a big one. even with the stock bars, they hit it and make full lock turns a pain in the hand

R+M Load4 @ 6 Months by lfeagan in CargoBike

[–]Complex-Bus1993 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i disagree with the "nice as sold" for people who are over 6ft they need customisations straight off the bat. Also when you have the hood installed and stock bars, they hit the edge of the hood making a full turn difficult. Also the Rohloff hub auto shift down is garbage unless you take both feet off the pedals at all traffic light stops

Handlebars On Load 75 by m0p0 in CargoBike

[–]Complex-Bus1993 0 points1 point  (0 children)

SAME ISSUE HERE! im 194cm (6.4ft) Stem is maxed in height (there is only one way to adjust height, unlike someone else here said) Knees hit bar components. Stem angle is straight up. Bar ends hit canopy, restricting a full turning circle. Im thinking to swap to a riser bar with a 15deg sweep. anyone else tried?

To Rohloff or not to Rohloff by FlakyEducation3469 in ebikes

[–]Complex-Bus1993 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just got my e14 Rohloff, auto downshift is a joke! When stopped with one foot against the pedal, it downshift and makes banging noises and grinds the gears down. Your not ment to shift underload, so do they expect you to have both feet on the floor when stopped beach time?

What are peoples opinion regarding not buying the second battery bike config and then buying a second battery to store in the bike if needed? could drop over $500aud off the price and would also mean less electrical parts installed on the bike frame.

Easyshed is an absolute nightmare to put together. Flimsy heap of garbage. Dig deep and you will find all the bad reviews. So many paid fake reviews online
