I'll write something in the next week or so

I tried using the type of mudguard that clips into the head tube of a suspension fork, I found they are too short and too far away from the tyre so I still got mud in the face. Instead, for winter use, I've fitted a mudguard to the Rockshox forks fitted to my e-bike. I used two p-clips on...

I was intrigued by this thread so thought I'd test whether I was faster on my e-bike than the average cyclist on a non-assisted cycle. For the purpose of the test I defined myself as an average cyclist! I did a lap on each bike of the same circuit on the same afternoon in the same weather...

I use Ortlieb Classics which are three years old - not cheap but work well. Spent a week touring in June. There were thunderstorms every day, one day it rained heavily for 6 hours. Inside of panniers bone dry all week. Good clips secure them to the rack- never had a problem.

Hi John, Thanks for the suggestion. Can I customise the kit when ordering - I want the biggest range I can get plus a spare battery? I'll be in touch direct by e-mail to find out about the special deals when I've finally worked out my requirements. Regards, Nigel

Hi, Just joined having caught the e-bike bug. I was touring in Europe on my self powered bike in the Black Forest and kept being overtaken by e-bikes. Thought help on the uphills looked a good idea. I hired a Giant Twist from the Electric Cycle Network at Carsington for a day, enjoyed it...
