I'm not sure it's torque Shaf. Perhaps it's weight distribution and placement?

Can I ask? 3 o’clock looking from which side of the bike?Bearbonesnorm wrote: ↑Thu Jan 21, 2021 6:26 pmI tend to run them at 3 o'clock as I find my ebb equipped bikes provide more grip on loose techy climbs in that position ... others may not

I think I know why you had inflation issues, that milky fluid you put in the tyre wasn't sealant.redefined_cycles wrote: ↑Thu Jan 21, 2021 6:19 pm
Might have only ridden it for 3 miles but managed to (reluctantly) get some mud on it. Just how the engineer designed it to be...
Make sure there is still a little play in the chain. About play 20mm play up and down us about right, mid point between axles.
If the chain is too tight, judged by rotating cranks stating to bind, it'll wear the bearing.
Its dying for a kindernay gear hub!
