Possibly, I’ve got a set of Kreitler made Planet X rollers with regular and resistance drums that I’ve been meaning to clear out.
Fairly certain these would fit, depends on your bike I guess

No experience of that area I'm afraid - but the rental bikes at Glentress look decent. They have e-MTBs as well. You'd probably enjoy the red loop there, it's cross country terrain, some slightly steep bits but nothing too hairy.
Glentress area will be a bit busy this week though, EWS race happening there. -

Box 9spd is meant to be quite good

Microshift advent x
It's seemed OK when on new bikes, when we had one in with a broken derailleur we swapped it to Shimano because we couldn't get a new derailleur at the time and it's not compatible like their other stuff. I wouldn't choose it but would ride it until it broke if it came on something I didn't care too much about. Downgrading from something better seems daft.

the cassette price scared me and i have an 11 speed cassette on the turbo

If you're only using ERG mode on your smart trainer, you can save on ( indoor ) cassettes by using a singlespeed cog and spacer kit

Keep on top of your chain wear by changing it a lot and not riding your bike.

ha! basically since I bought the bike I have changed the chain twice (around 800 miles so far in filthy conditions mostly) and the XT cassette might be coming to end of its life. Mainly because I have 11 on all bikes and can have same chains/quicklinks etc I wonder if I can sell the XT 1x12 setup and go down to 11.
good point @BareNecessities I only bang ERG.

To save a few quid on a cassette, you want to buy a whole new groupset??

The 12 speed stuff works so well too.

Don't Sunrace make something compatible?
No Hyperglide + but they appear to last well, from what I've seen

literally what I was doing but these guys are saying no ^^^^
Does anyone have any experience or advice riding or renting a bike at Drumlanrig Castle? I have a few days in the area and was thinking of having some off-road fun. I could also possibly try one of the 7 stanes but Drumlanrig is by far the closest. I don’t own an mtb so would need to hire but I’m a bit nervous about quality… the only other time I’ve hired an mtb it was pretty terrible. I’m a complete novice at mtb so I’m definitely not thinking of going full red bull rampage or x games, but I do race a bit of cross so I think I’d enjoy something more equivalent to xc type riding.
