Ask Us Anything: any Q’s for this week’s FGF?

What is it exactly that you need to know? 🤔

Ask away!

can we have a pensioners/retirees/tightarse FGF one week please ?

Who drinks the most coffee in the office? who’s happy with instant and who’s not happy unless it’s made with  unicorn tears?

How much did the Moterra SL weigh in real life?

Can you create some exposure to the changes and potential resurgence of grass roots MTB events?  Some have gone under/paused and could do with a shout out, others are being very successful which if highlighted can cause traction for potential attendees.

MTB is about riding locations and events, not just manufacturers and parts – they go hand in hand to create a successful hobby/sport.

what are we all doing with our spare time since wiggle and CRC have closed down.

i reckon i’m saving at least 1-2 hours a week looking at stuff i dont need to impress friends i do not like..

When is the current heavy discounting of (some) bikes, especially e-bikes, likely to end?

Some amazing amounts (£1-2k) off of some very good e-bikes at present, but I don’t need a new bike this year. In my 70th year next year and an e-bike will almost certainly be my next bike, will there still be these heavily discounted deals around if I wait until 2025?

Are we going to see some affordable accessories or some mountain bikes

Are there any companies making MTB clothing from organic materials? Whilst using recycled synthetic materials is great, it doesn’t go far enough for me as washing them still means synthetic microfibres going into the water system.

Why aren’t budget/affordable mountain bikes better? Geometry and boost thru axles should add next to no cost to an aluminium frame.
Even Voodoo, who make the excellent Bizango spec the cheaper model with a qr and the high end with thru axle – what’s the cost benefit of having 2 frames?
