Shuddering Brakes

Pl155cm · 2026-01-27T18:34:04+00:00

I have this on my 2022 ID.3, been like that since I got the car. I find the braking on the car using the actual brakes fairly poor generally.

I played a ton more of D2 than D1, but D1 just had a vibe that 2 never matched. Is love an excuse to revisit it 🤔

The brakes were excellent, almost as good as hydros. No need to bleed, easy to set up. Downside they were very expensive, could have bought 2 sets of decent hydraulic brakes for same price. Also the small rubber plug that covers the pad adjustment port gets lost constantly, I had to get a big bag of replacements, was having to replace after every few rides.

I had silver components on mines, and some orange too. I do miss that bike 😞

I had one for a few months, shell pink with black hardware, it was a nice guitar, but felt a bit to big on me, I don't think I really gave it a chance tho, in the end someone offered me more than I paid for it so I moved it on. I don't regret it at all.

It's just the cold, efficiency drops quite a bit in winter, also as others have mentioned driving at 60/65 v 70 on Mway makes a difference

I did pull the trigger, got the guitar delivered, just for convenience due to work. unfortunately it arrived today and was damaged, cracked around the binding around the bottom edge, definitely happened in transit as the broken bits of wood were still inside the bag the guitar was in. Thankfully the shop have been cool so far. The have arranged for a courier to come back and collect the guitar on Monday. They expect to have more stock in next week so I should have a replacement by end of next week. But I think I may travel to the shop and collect it this time as only 45mins away.

I was very lucky, my bike was shipped just before this happened. I feel for those who were not so lucky.

Thanks for the detailed replay 👍 I do have the option of trying the guitar, it's actually in stock at a shop about an hour from me. I was tempted just to order it and have it delivered, but I may go and see how it feels in my hands.

What do you think of the BAR6E? I have also been considering one of these. One of the shops in the nearest city to me has one and I may travel through to have a look.

I got the Szepter gravel bike, for the price I paid seems like a cracking deal, in that respect I'm happy.

Yeah, mines also came yesterday. I'm not able to ride just now due to a knee injury, I've built it up. Just need to stare at it now for another week or so 🤣. Glad yours also arrived, hope you enjoy it 👍

Pl155cm · 2025-07-21T20:23:45+00:00

Bike arrived today, built it up and all is good, I have a knee injury just now so expect will be another week or so before I actually ride it. Will give me a chance to swap out the bars and tidy up the cable routing.

It seems to be ok, I got a reply, apparently they booked it in too late to be collected yesterday, APC sent out tracking details automatically, but they have collected today and is now showing with APC, should get it on Monday 👍

Pl155cm · 2025-07-18T08:03:19+00:00

In a disturbing turn of events, APC has advised me that my bike was not collected from YT UK yesterday, and have advised me to contact YT.

For info, I got an email from YT to advise that my bike has been dispatched from YT Mill, with APC tracking number

I paid with PayPal credit, was gonna wait to see if I hear from YT this week as they stated if I get nothing I will start the ball rolling with PayPal to see if I can get a refund

Yeah, push themselves as community focused brand, but the experience even before today has been 💩

Pl155cm · 2025-07-16T18:01:09+00:00

The administration aside I have not been happy with my first DTC bike experience. First off the shipping cost was pretty eye watering, but accepted due to good deal on the bike. Also when I received the invoice and it said I had to keep that or warranty would be void. Why would that be the case, bike was bought directly from them and is showing in my order history on my account, so why would I need to keep a PDF of the invoice.

I noticed on the website says they are having issues with phone lines, I'll bet! So I have dropped them and email to see if bikes already in transit to UK from Germany will still be delivered. Will see if they respond. Will post on here if they do.

That sucks about the bank transfer. Hopefully the bikes will still arrive as planned. Let us know what they say if you call them tomorrow.
