    Video Editing Software for PC.

    I'll be having a go at this when I can manage to offload some prototypey webby stuff to clear headspace!

    vitesse flare

    Try another bike shop. I broke 3 rear wheel spokes on my recent trip to Wales, it was right wobbly for the last half mile, and was able to get replacements in Llanberis, with Bangor as a backup. They were shops catering to active riders rather than just bike sellers. You might have to remove...

    Black Friday sales

    I've kept an eye open since I first needed a replacement chain, and now have 2 years minimum of cassettes, chains and chain rings, and a new set of tyres just waiting for their turn. Maybe time for a treat instead!

    carerra subway e going on its own

    You could try unplugging every connector and leaving it in a heated space for a week, to allow as far as possible any moisture to get out.

    The machine I may experiment with has two of those!

    Video Editing Software for PC.

    Thanks, that's enough to start my fuddled brain next time it wants to play. I get lots of great footage of badly driven commercial vehicles where the company respond well, so I don't want to embarrass them, but the geometry of the encounter deserves an audience of more than 1. And now it is...

    Are these all frame by frame manual edit processes? Are there any automated tools for the proletariat?

    Video Editing Software for PC.

    I manage clips from my GoPros very easily using the Quik app on my multiple Motorola G30 phones, and I have a modest Dell Latitude 5420 laptop. Is there a simple to use video editor for short clips, say up to 30 seconds, at modest resolution, say 1080p and 24fps, that would enable me to fuzz...

    I'm going to have to buy a rear hub kit just so that I can experience this line!

    Disk brakes

    Confusing when first encountered, but very common nowadays. The driver bits or torx drivers are readily available from "all mainstream tool suppliers".... famous last words!

    Why is so much illegal 'commuting' not policed ?

    Just back from a trip to North Wales, accompanied by my bike, making use of a lift in the back of a van and two fairly long bike-on-train legs. Since last autumn's trip, Glasgow has introduced a LEZ and Wales the 20 mph limits. From my visiting cyclist perspective, very much nicer to ride in...

    What do you think of my new bike?

    Sounds good value especially since mudguards and rack are already installed. Side by side reviews of the quality of the torque sensor implementation against Shimano, Bosch, Yamaha would be interesting to read.

    Search 'swytch connector' on this forum and scroll down the results list to several recent threads that probably cover everything that is needed.

    Suggestion that delivery companies should check their riders bikes are legal !!!!!!

    The full answer is to fix the system and our society, rather than target an individual 'doing what everyone else is doing'. The immediate answer should be the same as for any other road traffic offence, which starts with 'advice' on what they are doing wrong, through 'strong advice' to...

    Suggestion that delivery companies should check their riders bikes are legal !!!!!!

    In a rather crude way enforcement is easy. Just visit every fast food outlet in every major town / city and inspect every bike. But that needs to be balanced against the public interest benefit of the service the riders provide and their need to earn a living. But I agree with your point that...

    Suggestion that delivery companies should check their riders bikes are legal !!!!!!

    I'm sure we will hear plenty of debate over whether delivery riders (are / are not / should be regarded as) employees. A legal loophole being stretched to breaking point whilst riders earn peanuts and companies blissfully syphon off millions.

    Swytch mark 2 battery rebuild

    If you use the search function, you will find quite a few mentions of various Swytch upgrades. A generic 36V battery is all you need, much less trouble than a recell, and as much capacity as you like, subject to fitting the battery to the bike.

    KT LCD5 controller issue with throttle and PAS

    I would try gentle scraping with a small screwdriver, and either a cotton bud or a bit of kitchen paper towel and the screwdriver to wipe out anything that comes away.

    KT LCD5 controller issue with throttle and PAS

    Your picture in #9 shows greenish deposit in the connector which if conductive would bridge the two pins it is touching. That would have an effect...
