It's become considerably heavier and still have to fashion a way to fit the fly6 on the back, but quite pleased so far. Test ride later.. now I have decent tyres on a ride on the canal side will be a bonus if it's not too bumpy.

Don't you think that a suspension seat post would be a valuable addition?

Well, yes and no! At present I am recycling all my 2 bike bits on to one bike and at the rear end I need the rear facing radar, fly6 camera and an extra light. So with the cam mounted on the seat post it focuses on the panniers so cars are a bit blurred and the radar needs to be up bear the saddle or it doesn't work. Cam is design to fit a sloping seatpost only so looking at options at the mo..

It maybe still a possibility as it's only the top 2" that moves.
Quite a shopping list you have there.

I have most of what i need. Just recycling them. Cycliq don't make a rack bracket so I had one 3d printed .. but the new fly 6 is different (old one stolen) and I don't know how it will take modifications... have bodged for now while I try drilling the old one.
Do you have a link for the seat post you bought?

It seems that the price has gone up by £20 since I bought it.
It takes the harshness out of the ride and if your not happy with it Wiggle refunds with no problems.Screenshot_2017-05-26-12-19-22.png

That's the one that gets the best reviews, it just that I couldn't live with the look of it. But whatever you decide I don't think you will be sorry that you bought a suspension seat post.

The NCX also gets great revues which I endorse, my lower back doesn't have eyes and so it lives very well with the look of it :rolleyes:

if you have a motor problem a dealer can send the motor off for warranty replacement if within the 2 years warranty.

when i broke my xd hub i just sent it back to crank brothers and got a replacement.
