Absolutely true ! It's the youngsters on FT with no skill as they have never known any different If you are new to mtb and capable physically then I believe there is a lot to learn from HT first Give me a few years and i'll ditch allmy HT Not just yet I agree it depends on ones...

In Brighton we have a shop in main drag that is selling electric scooters. It's only a few months old The bike lanes are full of the bloody things doing around 18 to 20 mph. Certainly faster than legal epacs Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Woah! One step at a time Those battery are only held in place by a small piston that locks into a hole when. you turn the key I lost my key and, using a screwdriver or two, was able to create enough leverage to remove the battery without damage. That is the first step in my view. I then...

Absolutely flecc But the point being made is that there is a trial and is, apparently, illegal How does that work ?! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'd disagree HT requires skill that FS does not the skill level in my local group is very evident between those who only ever ride or rode FS. They simply have not needed to use their body in the same way and be so alive to terrain - they have less " feel". I don't feel as "connected" to a FS...

No chance , plus knock on effect for pedelecs will be large - all that no throttle, gotta pedal business goes out the window Not sure I see that happening Our law makers might just be a tad busy over the next 12 months , won’t give a monkeys about some US firms escooter lobbying! Sent from...

Hi So I took that damn thing apart again . The mounting was on wrong. I thought the raised bit was to bite against the corresponding notches in the B.B. nut rather than the B.B. housing itself. I have a proper bbs tool /spanner btw to match the two B.B. nuts (and an extra length of metal for...

Thanks , good to know it is possible mind, especially for us alfine addicts (other hub gears are available ;) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Sorry, one last question . Is there a gear sensor output like the latter bbs ? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

A suppose that at the moment one cannot buy hydro brake sensors due to the bespoke connector (that looks like a funny USB?) Or do you have them ? obvs they could be made by hacking the connectors off the levers and soldering into another hydro sensor Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

This is a great option to have for future kits, I'd should be keen to see a picture of the test bike from front and side on the non drive side From what I can it is rather more stealthy than my GSM or Bbsxx units Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hi , I have a bbs02 and a alfine 8 pairing It produses up to 80nm but I was worried about trashing my alfine. There is a thread about it which I'll try to find. Conclusion seemed to be it was well within operating parameters using a 42t front ring and 16t sprocket Ch errs Sent from my...

Another thought is how wide are your bars. Super wide is very on trend but I find you need to stretch out those arms.! By going for narrower bars you need less arm movement to achieve same steer angle. Some argue this makes the bike more "twitchy" . Horses for courses I guess Does that make...

Plenty of options on bars with some sweep. I ended up answer pro taper with 40mm rise and I think 9 degree backsweep One one mary bars I still have on my 29er which is far more relaxed , upright ride that my 26er do stay away from cheap Chinese carbon , internet has plenty horror stories on...

It's a fair point and no offence taken I have also wondered whether changing crank arms to those which have significantly greater q factor might be placing additional leverage/twisting forces which were not there before Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Good question John, I'll check in my lunch break and report back Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Like the title says it started creaking when pedals given a good bit of pressure such as standing on pedals in a tad too high a gear Now it creaks like crazy every time pedals have any pressure put on them This includes no pedalling . Hit the throttle gently in a low gear. Massive creak...

Planet x lumen 8 jacket or a lidl one (very waterproof but hot) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Apparently , the seller neither explains how nor accepts alternative views. Comes with free fake dog and plenty copper gold spray paint It's on gumtree btw Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It appears to me that, for you, mega fast charging is the most crucial factor And I agree that few (if any ) bms will cope with your requirement However , I don’t understand your logic about why this won’t kill your cells fast . It will On discharge , cell loggers or lipo alarms work just...
