Re: Wanted-d3 bi turbo, preferably touring
Hi, thanks for the reply hap. Unfortunately the one on ebay is above budget at the moment and as for the one on auto trader, i`ve tried multiple times to contact the owner by phone and message over the past week or so and they haven`t responded, there`s a post in the for sale section here where they are saying how they`re struggling to sell it which i`ve responded to, even pm`d them but nothing so not surprised they`re struggling. Shame as it would probably be just right for what i want.

Don't worry about getting an E90 and putting bike in the back, I take my large Mountain bike in my E90 by simply removing the back seats. Takes literally 10mins. Or you can also retrofit the E91 Touring drop down rear seats although finding the right rear bench will be tricky.

If you can stretch to 11 then the dealer may have it it’s nice and it will be a while before any more come up they grey touring appears to have sold
Worth a call I reckon

Oh really? that`s interesting, tbh i hadn`t even considered doing that, do you have any pictures of how much room that gives through the back? pm me if you prefer. I was kinda getting round to the idea of a roof rack but i`m not overly comfortable with riding round with a bike worth more than the car on the roof!Wellsy wrote: ↑Fri May 07, 2021 11:30 amDon't worry about getting an E90 and putting bike in the back, I take my large Mountain bike in my E90 by simply removing the back seats.

Yes it`s a lovely car and i`ll give it some thought but i`m conscious of the possibility of having to get the timing chain done, then i`m starting to get into the realms of an f31.

Well I ride a 2019 Vitus E-Sommet in large 27.5wheels. All I do is take the front wheel off, drop the seat. I have a large tarp I take with me so I can sit the bike in it and slide it through.
In this picture I was testing it with the bike clean to see if it fitted. After 3 hours blasting round Surrey Hills needed the tarp.

Hi, thanks for the pic. Looks like this is a good way to go although may need come up with a solution for my seatpost, maybe take it out each time, will have to see.
Thanks again for the Suggestion as i hadn`t even thought of it.

Re: Wanted-d3 bi turbo, preferably touring
Assuming you’ve got a proper (mtb) bike , dropper posts are the best invention. Get one of them.

Haha, it`s a proper mtb but i race xc so rarely have need for one. Maybe now`s the time

Re: Wanted-d3 bi turbo, preferably touring
You’ll have more concern for the weight penalty though, but personally it’s less of a issue for me.

Re: Wanted-d3 bi turbo, preferably touring
Yh I have a dropped post that drops the seat almost to the frame. From what I've seen though XC is becoming more trail and even some pretty serious down hill sections. The Dropped was the first thing I fitted to mine and its up and down all ride. I would certainly recommend thinking about it. Any section where your standing up just gets the seat out the way and gives you much more room to move around on the bike.
I think in the future I may pop the pedals off too and they stick out surprisingly far.
