Hey all. Trying to find a bike for my wife - she still has the Scott MTB she got when she was 14 years old, and insists it's fine, but then complains its uncomfortable after riding any distance 🙃

Something like a gravel bike would be perfect for her - decent on road and light trail. I think a suspension fork would make her more comfortable too - the only issue is that she's decided she wants flat bars which limits the options.

Not looking to spend a ton of money, and happy to go for a good used one if there's a good one nearby (Near Southampton area).

Ideal spec:

• Flat bars
• Reasonable groupset
• Small gravel-type suspension fork
• Hydraulic discs
• 1x drivetrain?

Happy to comp

I'm so confused by this, so apologies if it's a bit all over the place!

I bought a used MTB frame that I've been doing up. It's a 2013 Voodoo Bizango, and so I believe had Shimano 395 brakes originally according to a review. I temporarily put on some Tektro brakes from an old frame, but wanting to improve performance I got a Shimano T8100 trekking kit, and some new bucklos 180mm discs.

I'm having an issue where the calliper is mounted too far out from the disc, and isn't using much of the mating surface. As a result the brakes are DIRE in performance. I did have to buy new dropouts as the frame didn't have them, and they're alu CNC ones, but I'm having this issue on the front and the bac

Hey all - a little stuck here, I'm sure others have had the same.

I have a little 2024 Hero, and I want to combine and stabilise the footage. If I stabilise each file using Player alone, it looks great, but because they're all handled separately, there are bad seams between the files when trying to combine them for editing.

I had assumed the official tools would combine and stabilise for me in Player, but I can't do that.

Any ideas?

I was a little frustrated to realise, having bought an RGB + "White spectrum" bulb, that it doesn't seem to contain warm and cool diodes like the "warm spectrum" only listed ones. When you don't have it on around 2700K it's awful colour rendition :(

Is there a true RGBWW bulb? It seems a bit disingenuous of Ikea not to make it clear for the folks that care. All the bulbs are listed as a CRI of 90 - I assume that's tested at a single colour temperature

... suck on my dangly balls.

Anyone else have head-canon for the end of the sentence that's cut off from the Tide ad read?

I just got a used Hero - the little one, stupid name.

I'm wondering what people's workflows are for this camera? As far as my understanding goes:

1. You get stabilization through the Quik app, but it's not a user option, it just automatically does it?

2. If I pull the footage through a USB cable onto a PC, it won't be stabilized.

3. The transfer to a phone to get the stabilization is wireless only?! A cable is "not supported" by this model

4. There's no Quik app for PC - there is one for Mac, though.

So my question here is what people do with this camera? I used the wireless to transfer to my phone and it was incredibly slow to pull about 30s of video. I can't imagine doing it for a

Hey all. I have a bike with 27.5" QR wheels - which isn't a problem for me. However, I'm looking to buy a cheap upgrade fork, probably the Suntour Raidon Air, as I'm looking to bike on a budget, for trails etc.

The issue I have is a lot of these are thru-axle. Is there any problem with replacing the front wheel with a thru-axle one? It seems I can pick up a used wheel pretty cheap, and that allows me to get a used fork. Any issues here?

I'm thinking of doing a build as a gift, and want one that's well waterproof and good quality :)

Any links would be appreciated!
