Well, that just confirms my theory that there are lots of lovely dog owners and there are Mad Cat Women, some of whome go in the guise of male ecyclists. Do you collect all the dead small birds to eat in pies too?

And cats, there's more than enough on facebook. So many cats, not enough recipes! I hope they've been trained to **** in their owner's flowerbeds.

I fitted the woosh kit with frog battery, very neat, battery locks on to the mounting block that fits onto the bag mount block. The frog battery could be improved with a white lense on the light, the red lens is useless for the front.

Re handlebars, a while back I met an aggressive tram track and patch of tarmac that did for my wrist temporarily, a few months while it healed. I bought a Humpert Handlebar, swept back, so now I ride in a sit up and beg position, no pressure on wrists, comfortable.

I use Google Fit on Android to track my rides and walks, there's a basic mode by default and a more accurate mode, select for walk/cycle. It does average speed, altitude etc. I don't need to export anything, I've no need. I generally just check It out when I've got home. It just works while the...

The speed limit is set on the display on my bike. Immsmr press + and - together when display is on, scroll through the settings by brief press of I/O button. When speed is displayed go up or down with + or -. Can be done while you are moving, if your quick enough, before the plod look at your bike;)

I used a tyre glider, easy off easy on. https://tyreglider.co.uk/ Anyway young uns today should have no bother getting the last bit into the rim, they have extra large thumbs from phone gaming/texting

Someone's a fan of this thread...

Found it, magnet fallen off brake lever for magnetic brake sensor - I've fitted magura rim brakes. Still, I found a snick in cover of pedal sensor lead, which was too long anyway, so repaired, soldered and wrapped in glue heatshrink. Pack of magnets ordered! Thanks for help everyone.

Checked with meter, intermittent 5v feed to the PS. it disappears into the motor. Time to take motor off and check innards??? Is the controller behind the lh cover? what advice? Of course, I went to get the ebrompton out to go shopping this morning- no power to display!!! Turned out to be a...

I fitted a new speed sensor, doubt it's that but I will test old and new. If not that, what else, is the throttle not working a different issue, does that normally cut out if speed sensor is not working?

I got an e21 code on the screen the other day. Checked sensor clearance, no joy. No flashing red light. The throttle wasn't working but power stayed on. I have fitted a new speed sensor, nothing has changed. Fault code pops up about a minute after riding, throttle not working from the start...

I was born with wirefree stalk indicators. They've worked for years with very little maintenance, just a daily wash under the fixing point.

What do Meta know about you that triggered that ad, possibly more than you, they see the future...

I tightened with a whack as said, occasionally it starts to creak a little, just asking for another whack.
