£1600 for a battery with a plug socket on it? How spendy?!?

Anyone else see the irony of a thread of the week based around a typo, in a FGF with more typos than I have seen for many a week?

- camping trips kin North Wales

That's a good spot but possibly not the typo your looking for. It's lost an apostrophe, not gained a k

Who thought putting the disc calliper inside the swingarm on the Pace was a good idea? How the **** do you get an Allen key in there when you need to remove it?

AXS bike - surely the bolts undo themselves if you press the right button 🙂

Same way you got them attached in the first instance I guess?

Hold on is that Pace less than £6k? With a Lyrik Ultimate and AXS gears? What a strange world we live in where Pace are now offering better vfm than Spesh or Trek

disc mount

Looks like you can get an allen key in behind the seatstay, even if you need a long one...

That VATT kit is really, really hideous. Just about everything about it that could be nasty, is nasty. Is it some sort of elaborate parody?

Not a looker, is it? Ugly, cheap looking linkage, mishmash of curved and straight lines, nothing parallel, esp. compared to ther hatdtails which look great. Hard to argue with the value if you get past the looks though.

That Paces brake mount is just dumb, makes using a torque wrench impossible without a long extender socket piece, and why design the stays like that, what a stupid pointless shape.

Those trp brakes are just ugly and cheap looking.
