    Finally bought a smaller folder for conversion...

    Does the JetStream only take custom parts or can you use off the shelf stuff? The one I have has chrome seat post and handlebar/stem.. maybe that's more practical for a folder than black which shows scratches, but I prefer the look of black and tempted to change. I looked on CH White & Son Dahon...

    Finally bought a smaller folder for conversion...

    Good idea cwah, I think I will keep both and get rid of my 26" to make space.. I don't think I can go back to a full size bike now after riding the Mezzo and experiencing the advantage of smaller bikes... and with conversion there will be no reason to... I'm really looking forward to trying the...

    New Battery

    Great price d8veh, I have the same style battery from BMS but half the current rating (10Ah) and mine cost £130 with shipping and a bit of VAT. It weighs 2.3kg. It's still working great after 18 months. I've just been looking at these Turnigy 11.1v / 2200mAh Lipo batteries (185g) from...

    I got a Dahon JetStream P8 I finally got a Dahon JetStream P8! I'm on a roll. Picked it up off eBay for a mere £250, well within my budget this time :D It's 2008 model but looks ok. I'm probably going to convert it and use it as a second bike to my Mezzo..or I might sell the Mezzo..haven't...

    Finally bought a smaller folder for conversion...

    That's very true Dave, I've tried to keep them as short as possible and reduced the resolution down to 640x480 but they still seem to come out huge! Well it's moving along now at 33%..progress! Another possibility is that my ISP is throttling connections to YouTube or large uploads..that...

    Tesco £399 electric folder

    Indeed, Tesco are the experts at cost cutting. The labels may fall off their beans, but they're good beans. Let's hope the wheels don't fall off the bikes! It's funny but, some people are paying about that cost of that bike for a kit! Buy the kit from Tesco and get a free bike heh.

    I'm trying to upload the second part of the video but YouTube is slooooow..says 7 hours to upload 250megs..ha! Might have to do it later tonight when it's quieter or tomorrow. I've been practising folding and unfolding the Mezzo..it's definitely a lot easier to unfold than it is to fold.. I...

    Demo of locked bike theft

    Very true flecc, but it's not difficult to pick up your mobile from a safe distance and dial 101 or 999. I just wish more people were community spirited and think what if that was their house/car/bike being robbed etc.

    Demo of locked bike theft

    The problem is I think often people just assume no thief would have the audacity to steal a bike in a very busy public place and they just assume it's the owner who has forgotten or lost his key. This is perhaps another reason it's a good idea to have some kind of audio anti-theft alarm on...
