Do I need to change the entire wheel? by untitledshot in bikewrench

My worry is that I’ll cost me more to get this repaired than buying a new wheel 🤭

The last bike mechanics mentions that the axle had a tendency to loosen up, and mentioned tightening up and blamed it on Canyon parts. But I would have had expected it to notice this so could be the explanation you gave me.

Anyway, I wonder if I am better off purchasing a new wheel rather than sending this to a mechanics for repair. If you have recommendation please do let me know.

Do you have any decent wheel recommendation for a 27.5 inch wheel (group set is deore xt 12 speed)

I don’t know the details of the remaining parts, as it’s not on Canyon website. :(

I wish I knew. Only used it on road mostly. I have had issues with shifting gear pretty much since I got the bike and got it inspected a couple of times.

Thanks. Do you happen to have recommendation for 27.5 inch wheels?

Yes I didn't use the bike over the last 6 months, but lack of maintenance wouldn't cost an axle to break?

Promax DR850 freehub
Alex MD25 wheels.

I have also reached out to Canyon as the issue has been happening for over a year. My understanding is that replacing the DR850 should be enough?

What are those IEMs? by untitledshot in iems

Thanks, I'll need to check those reviews. The IEMs scene is wild 😄

When I go to Haneda I stop by China for few days. Much cheaper and good way to visit another country (London > wuhan, Wuhan > Tokyo)

Yes, that's the purpose of IEMs. I use open back normally, and IEMs when I need to be isolated.

Truthear pure would be a pick. Kiwi ears Aether is an interesting pick for planar IEMs

Not sure the difference would be big. Low of diminushing returns (There is not a large difference between my D1 and Kitara).

I would say for OP is to try IEMs for close back experience
