    As above if it's hydro disks you'd be well to get a couple of these to pop between the pads so you don't pop the pistons accidentally

    Wow didn't realise that such things existed. I just use a bit of folded up card when I transport my MTb front wheel out. :) Saying that if i was removing the wheel regularly for storage a proper spacer like that would be on my shopping list.

    I threw them away when I put my bike together. I'm now the proud owner of a Park Tools PP-1 piston press.

    Trott bike seems amazing value but its says specific for girls geometry?

    What does that actually mean for the frame geo or is it just marketing?

    I suppose you could also remove the trott stickers so people won't take the piss etc... :o

    Its marketing, but be wary of the sizes as they come up quite short.

    the frame stickers won't come off (but could be stickered over) the fork stickers do come off and the purple grips are easily swapped.

    WTF is it with knobblists and wheel sizes? I bought a 26" grrrr (it was in 2013)
    It's just a hill. Get over it.

    I've got a 27.5" On One Parkwood for ripping up the local trails, it rolls so fast compared to my old 26". I tried a mates 29er but was nowhere near as much fun as this thing
