I feel your pain. I have created an app to quickly find a defibrillator in an emergency. I have loaded information for all the defies near me but I need other people to act as local admins to add info for their own area. It's https://defib-map.co.uk if anyone cares to have a go.

It definitely sounds like a bad connection somewhere. I'd suggest going through every connector, visual inspection, contact cleaner, then dielectric grease (around the plug, not on the metal bits) and a double check that the connector is back together properly afterwards.

I've had mine for over three years and generally very happy with reliability/durability. I did have one expensive issue with the controller but I've almost forgotten it now. Spares are readily available from Inch Perfect but anything that is generic is cheaper elsewhere.

I find rear brakes lacking in feel on any bike. Stiff soled boots just don't transit any information through to your foot, but at least on an EM you can hear what the back tyre is doing. I am really tempted by the idea of putting a left-hand rear brake on my '21 Race but the combination of FRB and rear brake is just about good enough to stop me bothering (so far).

Good idea. Well done!

"Primarily unknown. I've never seen one.

Where in Spain are you? Catalunya is the epicentre of trials.

Funny: yes, that describes my riding. Exotic: maybe not. 🤣

I'm so disappointed. I was thinking that every bike should be fitted with a fun module. 😆

It would be reasonable to assume that the new motor and battery offer advantages regardless of the gearbox (weight, cost, bulk) so it would be crazy not to use them on the Race too.

That's what we need here in the UK. I think that would work well. It all depends a bit on your definition of "difficult" but I could imagine that working right up to Trial GB. Obviously marker flags and rider numbers should use colours to match.

I've noticed that some of our colonial cousins quote the type of route they ride as if it is a standard format. If only we could have something like that in the UK! Every club seems to have a different idea of hard, easy, clubman, sportsman, novice, beginner, gentleman, etc. Most clubs use red/blue for the "main route" but that could be the hardest or the middle route and the use of white and yellow is all over the place. I've also seen red and blue as separate routes. Finally, some clubs mark out deviations from the main route while others mark out all routes in their entirety. Wouldn't it be nice if all clubs worked to a standardised system, at least up to Centre Championship level? (I don't think there is such a problem at Trial GB level.)

That's a definite new piston and re-nikasil. Having said that, there were plenty of times back in the distant past (about 1980!) when I got a seized kart engine back out for the next race by judicious application of wet'n'dry to the piston and barrel. But it did go for a hone and new piston the following week.

Richard Allen would probably have them.

Part of the reason I am so particular over cleaning pads and discs is because I use WD40. I don't think the WD40 is the cause of the problem as I think you are implying.
