I've regularly hit 45mph down that last bit of fire road into the car park. Best run was when I was tucked doing that speed and then got overtaken by an F35. Thought it was just wind noise at first, then the jet just roared over head. Was absolutely epic.

That was Curbar and Froggatt Edges - Stanage is close to there, but wasn't in your video. Stanage is the best descent in the area so if you missed it, you missed out.

that bike needs some love for the bearings! My dog has a squeaky toy he smashes the crap out of on a daily basis, but even that makes less noise than your bike lol. B line, or Trail Fairy Plan as its more commonly know, is one of the most technical trails at GT for sure. You should try riding it in the winter 😲

Omg it was driving me nuts. Eventually found it was failing shock pivot. Took a few days to figure out where the squeak was coming from. It was a week long MTB tour and camping so had to keep riding for a bit

If you want steep head to Thornilee, everything is pretty mellow at GT. You should be adding low speed compression and dialing back high speed. Reducing low speed will just allow the fork dive more when braking on steeps

That's a-lotof tinkering-around with an expensive component. Surely no company would allow a warranty-coverage, if this is done, and the motor...fails. Much the same as installing a speedbox, which voids any warranty. Your best option: Keep that expensive e-bike toy, out of wet weather. That includes humidity. Yes. Humidity damage also tends to void most motor brand warranties.

Quite right I mentioned in the description not to do this if you have warranty.

Summer months your not allowed on the mountain between 10am and 5pm. Your going to enjoy the experience so much more the fewer people there. The weather at the summit can be quite bad. So when you plan to go have some flexibility. Eg if you are heading up for the weekend only decide which day based on forecast max 18 hours before. We planned Saturday morning but did Snowdon Friday evening due to weather forecast for the weekend. Then go ride coed y

mountain passes need to be graded out because they get used and eroded. At one point the Rangers Path will have been extremely smooth and will have been worn away over time. Gravel and rocks have to be airdropped onto mountains to restore them after people use them. The paths you used are bridleways that see walkers, bikers and horse riders. Complaining that the surface is better is an elitist mentality that excludes less capable people from the sport, and is only something i see from other MTBers. People were complaining that the Chute on the Mach loop got graded out but they failed to realise people who aren't enduro riders use it too. Now more people can enjoy the sport and there are still plenty of rugged off-road passes to try. have a go at the Sarn Helen, you'll be dreaming of the Telegraph Valley before long.
