    bamboo bike kit

    If someone spots you zooming around at ridiculous speeds and notices that you lock it in the same place every day in public, it won't be there for long...or will be vandalised. Isn't it a naff old conventional you've had locked up outside for 2 months? "something quite waterproof, reliable and...

    2008 wisper 905 se for £600? worth it?

    Assume you will need a new(Wisper) battery at around £500...is the bike worth £1100? Probably not, so a big reduction in price is needed. A 6 year old battery is highly unlikely to be any good, regardless of how much use it's had.

    Easiest way find percentage of a hill?

    Don't feel bad Flecc, I don't have one either. When I try and use them my Wife ends up rolling around laughing at me trying to "Swipe" the screen.... Mind you, I still have a Bakelite styled phone in the house too that I insist people call me on if they want to talk to me. Buttons and keys I'm...

    If you like the Cube bikes, you may well also like the Scott bikes...possibly worth a look as another option.

    Bad experience with Kalkhoff Agattu XXL

    I think the safest option would be to go the derailleur route- much more easily/cheaply repaired should anything go wrong.

    Something like this or a ladies Hairnet for less than a Quid would solve the Bug problem: http://www.skinzprotectivegear.com/bicycleproduct.html

    Wanted THORN RESISTANT INNER TUBE

    The Smart Sam pluses use the 3mm energiser lining, whilst the Marathon plus MTB uses the thicker 5mm "Plus" lining. 2.1" is the widest, but they are good tyres for non-serious off road (Marathon MTB). I use the Smart Sam plus, and have not had a puncture yet- I prefer them for the compressible...

    Wisper charge indicator?

    If my memory serves me correctly all the lights are lit when fully charged, and then the lights extinguish down to the final red one when depleted.

    Flyer Panasonic Motor Sensor Problem

    With it being a Swiss Flyer, it could well be the newest of Panasonic Crank motors that come without the motor sprocket too...I've only had experience of them on the KTM Amparo so far, but they are very good and very overlooked.

    Bosch battery problem. Is me or the bike?

    Just to reiterate, the classic system works best as described in the above quote with the key being used to lock in after the battery is inserted, though this can vary depending on how the lock is set up in relation to battery position. On the newer models, I've found it works well if you do...
