Here you go, taken from the terms and conditions. https://www.rutlandcycling.com/pdf/demo-bike-terms-and-conditions.pdf .

The good thing about the first 7 miles of the test, was that both bikes were on a comparatively level playing field, and both used 50% of their fully charged batteries. Even the Bosch battery had only received three full charges from new. Both power settings were also 300% assist. Sadly the...

The courier charges are included within the offer. :) https://www.rutlandcycling.com/pages/e-bike-buying-guide/buying-and-demo-e-bikes.aspx .

Many thanks to Rutland Cycling for allowing me to try the service. http://www.pedelecs.co.uk/forum/threads/a-short-review-of-the-rutland-cycles-demo-a-bike-for-a-weekend-offer.30501/ .

I recently received a very interesting proposal, when I was contacted by Rutland Cycling, who wanted to know if I would be willing to trial, and to review their “Test ride an E-bike for the weekend” demonstration offer, and also to give feedback about the service. Not being one to turn down the...

Part 2 The next off-road ride was more of an interesting one, as I wasn’t actually riding the bike. I wanted to compare how the battery consumption stacked up against the battery as fitted to the Bosch CX. Both being of similar spec, this was going to be the interesting test. The highest power...

Giant Full-E Plus 1 SX Pro 2018 kindly supplied for review by Rutland Cycling Upon removing the bike from it’s box, I was reminded straight away of the ‘Marmite’ colour scheme that Giant seem to love inflicting upon their bikes. Great if you like 1970’s shell suits, but not so great if you...

Hi Bear, I'm afraid that I don't know. I have a relative that is a specialist engineer and every now and then, I scrounge some from him. Sorry that I can't be of more help to you. I also use it inside of the heads/wells on exposed bolts. The quality of plating on factory supplied bolts is...

Thankfully, other than when the rear mech clutch wasn't engaged, chain suck was never a problem on my full suspension KTM. :) But you are right though, as there isn't a great deal of room around the chainstay area and linkages on the Giant. It is also running a 1x set up. I'm pretty certain...

Sadly, I think that the photos can only be added as the ride takes place. :( I tend to use doarama more than relive, but here are two more climbs. https://www.relive.cc/view/1086419096 https://www.relive.cc/view/1080432551

This isn't a bad one. https://www.relive.cc/view/1073456759 Nor this analogue ride. :) https://www.relive.cc/view/1081434069

Many thanks flecc. :)

You have to love a clean bike! :) Wheels removed, cassette removed and cleaned, bake discs and pads cleaned with isopropyl alcohol, chain removed, cleaned and re-lubed, dielectric grease applied to battery contacts, anti seize compound added to seat post and Fork Juice applied, forks and rear...

You need to be careful of that one. My wife now comes along as well!!! :(:D

As the title. What is the maximum amount of words that can be written as a thread starter, before having to split the subject down?

SW, the rocky Mountain is a complete design disaster for European off road riding conditions. I'd have left that laying in the first available ditch. Flecc, I was actually very surprised by the chain suck issue, and I'd certainly like to next try the Shimano system for comparison. :) Had the...

Best-laid plans. I’m currently completing a very short review of a Giant Full-E Plus 1 SX Pro, (more to follow on Monday) and last night was to be a ‘real world’ off road riding battery test, Yamaha PW-X against the Bosch CX. The idea was to complete a pre-planned 19 mile off road ride across...

Yoga is a tricky one. I have been very lucky, in that my yoga teacher is also my chiropractor. The class is a very chilled afair, with a lovely bunch of people. The teacher understands the limitations of what each of us can or can't do, and that helps greatly. Sadly, it can take a while to find...

I can certainly vouch for that one*. After taking several 100mph plus crashes whilst racing both in SS400 and GP250, in can safely say that my worst injury was at about 3mph when the side of my knee hit the cross bar of the cycle frame, when I slipped on roots. That injury took over two years...
