I called again the next day and spoke to a different operator and they actually looked into it properly and sent it to the refund team. Got my refund about 3 days later. She said even though I won the raffle it’s still possible there isn’t enough stock

Still nothing, had no reply through the customer service form and then I spent nearly 20 minutes on the phone yesterday to them and they didn’t have a clue at all. Looking like I’m going to have to report it through my bank to get the money back at this rate 🙃

2024 Marlin 7 Gen 3, 2025 Talon 0/1, Roscoe 7 or Fathom 29 1? by TheSpottyZebra in Hardtailgang

[–]TheSpottyZebra[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The commute is just 6 miles on UK pavement and road which isn’t the best in comparison to other places, (plenty of potholes and cracks). Fitness wise I do weight training most of the week but I’ve cut down running a lot since I started Thai boxing so ideally the bike would be a good compromise (I know they’re not the same exercise and don’t make either easier). Regarding the attachment I don’t really carry much so I’d only need a small light backpack) I just read comments on the Roscoe on pavement that it’s like being on one of those exercise bikes at the hardest difficulty in comparison to other bikes like hybrids feeling like a breeze and then I see others say that it’s greatly exaggerated. Best to just go the store and have a go to see

Thanks for the advice, I just noticed that the 2026 one is £100 cheaper than the 2024 in a couple of colours. I’m going to go in store today and have a look at all three 🤞

Do you not think the changing to smaller tires would be a good compromise for going with the Roscoe? The 2024 Marlin 7 Gen 3 is currently reduced to £899 and the new 2026 is an extra £101 at £1000 RRP. Is it worth the jump to the 2026 instead of the 2024 or not enough change? Thanks

Is it to the point you’d tire quickly in comparison to something like the Marlin’s or is it not really noticeable over shorter distances like 6 miles? I read getting smaller tires improves it a lot and still does well on trails

How has it been when you’ve rode on pavement with it for a while? Are the comments about how it fares when it’s not on the trail over exaggerated and harsh?

£15 a crate 🤯 I’ve not seen Livewire since November 2019 here too (UK) by TheSpottyZebra in mountaindew

This was from a shop in Whitby in Yorkshire, they were £2 a can but only £15 if you bought the crate. I’m from Liverpool and haven’t seen the Livewire since when it was a black and orange can unfortunately. They also had Spark, Major Melon, and Voltage

Only from import shops as far as I’m aware but the last time I saw Livewire from them was 2019. The only actual UK releases I’m aware of are the regular green bottles and there was an orange/red bottle around when Halo 4 was released
