    Site Update - Today 12pm

    Looks good, and seems nice and easy to navigate around. :) I know that it has been mentioned before, but could a product review section be added as well?

    eMTB owners photo and ride thread.

    Hi Nev, it is surprisingly little time. I guess 5 minutes at the most. Because everything is so wet, nothing actually really sticks to the bike for very long. It is also helped, because periodically I will clay bar the whole bike including wheel rims, and then use a wax. It makes interim...

    Finally weather and ground conditions that are worth riding in. Long may it continue. :)

    Finally gone and done it but!!! Part two!!

    Nor the life of anyone following behind. I have seen the carnage left behind on a French motorway, after a cheapo looking rack said farewell to the car that it had been attached to. Even with my Thule rack, I always ensure that both the bike and rack are chained securely to the towbar. I'd...

    Face masks...

    You could also question his motives for filming outside of school gates. I can't say that I'd be too happy about a guy hanging around school gates wearing a mask and filming. I haven't read the whole thread, but as I haven't seen what style of mask that he was wearing, for all we know, he...

    Bosch drive unit maintenance kit

    @Bearing Man. Just out of interest.... What warranty period are you giving to the end user? .

    Sadly I don't know about that one. :(

    Bosch drive unit maintenance kit

    Afraid that you will have to hang for that one. I happened to be in the right place at the right time, but you shouldn't have to wait very long for the full details. :) It certainly opens the playing field up though in respect of extending bike life, especially with the two year warranty that...

    Bosch drive unit maintenance kit

    As you may already be aware, Bosch are just about to release a maintenance repair kit, which is designed to offer peace of mind to those owners that are buying an ebike that is out of the covered warranty period. Given that the kit comes with the following items shown below, including outer...

    Behind the scenes in a Local Bike Shop, Specialized Levo and Kenevo at Berkshire Cycles

    I remember watching this the first time around and laughing at the 16.35 point "We may start Sunday morning with six motors, in the finish, we haven't got any. There is Specialized reliability for you. :D Also, why should a dealer be having to modify stock bikes to make them useable. PDI yes...

    eMTB owners photo and ride thread.

    I really miss my KTM 1964. It was an utterly superb and fun bike to ride, but sadly just a tad too small for me. I certainly put some good miles in on it though. I changed it for a Giant XCT Advance Plus 1 almost a year ago, and whilst I really love the bike, it is enough to persuade me that I...

    It's getting slippy out there

    Deer and badgers are my biggest hazard. It was kind of funny but not funny recently when my regular riding partner had a badger caught up between his two wheels. It was exactly happy with the situation, and was rightly pretty aggressive.

    eMTB owners photo and ride thread.

    Over the last few weeks, my knee has once again been giving me severe grief again, and I haven't really been up to riding, but last night with no pain I got out and did 20 miles trying out a new playground. I can't believe that I can still find new places on my doorstep to ride, but on a recent...

    Another Bike for 2019

    Also looks to be a well maintained bike, and not too far to travel for a look. .

    ebike, to wheel chair conversion.

    For the last two years or so I have repeatedly seen tracks around Ashdown Forest and the woodlands that I ride in, which had really puzzled me. First off I thought they must be being made by someone on a small trials bike, but when I finally got around to looking closer at them, they were equal...

    ebike, to wheel chair conversion.

    Without getting into the design aspects etc of this project, what a superb and generous thing to do for someone. :) .

    Cleaning and detailing

    Exactly. :) As time has past, I now cringe at most of what I have written about cleaning and detailing of bikes, and now take the approach of what I used to use when cleaning and detailing motorcycles. It could take me nearly a week to clean a motorcycle properly, but thus would involve removing...

    You don't want to be a snowman in my garden.
