Quick check-in on consumables from Level 3 and 2 owners
I'm reaching 1500 miles on my level 3 and I wanted to get a rough idea on what is wearing out on these bikes around this point.
I'm mostly wondering about 3 consumables: tires, chain, brakes.
My original chain is starting to slip a bit but I don't know how much more an ebike chain has from this point until it dies. An acoustic road bike chain in this situation usually has a couple of hundred miles left, and an acoustic MTB chain from this point might die before you get home.
My original tires are starting to look a bit flat on the center, but still have "hairs" left so I'm not sure how to read that. I also run them with an internal puncture protection (Tannus).
The brakes have sucked since day one so who knows where that's at.
Where's your bike at? When did you start replacing consumables, and what did you get?
