I would not put a leg over that bike again, a fault like that could put you under a bus or something equally as bad. I'd hope your bike shop would understand when you ask for your money back, if not I'd be seeking legal advice.

Ive 2,000 trouble free miles on my Bosch/cube but if I'd had your problems I'd have thrown the towel in by now and pushed for a completely new replacement bike or a full refund. If they insist on repairing your existing bike the least I'd expect would be breakdown recovery cover for the rest of...

While we are talking text ! I do all my online stuff via my iPad. Rather than wearing my reading glasses I double tap the screen to enlarge the text. Only on this forum when I enlarge the text the adverts on the right hand side of the screen also enlarge and then cover part of the text, most...

I don't like the mudguards that clip high on frame so I brought a pr of these, https://www.athleteshop.co.uk/sks-bicycle-fender-set-beavertail-xl-black?gclid=CPLlkpq51MoCFUHkwgodv7ELeg And grafted the two together to make one long one. Where the guard reaches the bottom bracket it's possible to...

Just to be really really clear, it's only on purchases over £99 so you need to spend big to get it And that's doubley annoying as when I joined it was on all purchases, then they went and changed it to £99+ :( Even so I still think it's a good store and my first point of call when buying bike...

No so, these are totaly legal. The woman who makes/markets the horse rider vests appeared on dragons den with the same idea for motorcycles. She had police approval.! Personally I'll stick with plain hi-viz, I'll settle for being seen rather than being Totally. Without. Any. Taste.

Yes yes yes, do make sure all your kit is fit for purpose, your pump fits your valves and actualy pumps up your tubes. One time I stoped to help someone who thought he had all the right kit, only to find his patch glue had dried up and his spare tubes valve stem was to short to go through his...

OK so I've never owned a throttle bike but a quick google came up with a possible answer Anti-runaway Half-Bar Twist Throttle

If you suffer from cold feet I'd recomend neopreen fishing socks, they'll help keep your feet warm even if your boots/shoes aren't waterproof.

Isn't that a small person with large hairy feet originally found in the Shires

A 29er tyre will fit a 700c wheel but 700c rims can vary in internal width, a sports/racer 700c rim could be as narrow as 13mm and a wide 29er would roll off that. As I've been looking I was surprised to see that extra wide fat bike rims can also be referred to as 700c's...

Yes but no but maybe. I'm hoping to get a few more years out of my knees yet. When the time is right I'll ether ride an illegal new bike or buy and rebuild an older bike with new parts ;)

I'm open minded regarding augmented EAPC's, I understand the law and if I ever decide to break it I'll do so discreetly ;) At the moment I'm more than happy with my legal Bosch active powered Cube but as my knees deteriate I will break the law with a now illegal twist throttled bike (even...

Going back to those mirrors I mentioned back in post #35 I can now say from first hand experience, there blooming good mirrors, there's a clear view and no vibration, nice and solid and at £6 (£11.99 for two) exelent value. Recomended :cool: Oh I nearly forgot, there not handed so a pr will...

If it bothers you that much, don't read them :p

If we had some chips, we could have "fish & chips" if we had some fish ;) Wishfull thinking there, you've taken 2 battery packs and suggested a 4 battery solution o_O Anywho,back to the OP Do you have any kind of BMS or low voltage protection ? Lipo cells of different capacity in parallel...

I'd only just found them, thinking more about it I decided to order a pr. my current plastic mirror works fine as a mirror but having plastic fittings it gets knocked out of position easily and I have to be careful leaning the bike against things. These metal mirrors should take a few knocks and...

If you have ordered the barend/grips as shown in picture above, you can adjust the grip to barend angle a fair bit. During last year I went through a few different b-ends for the similar reasons. This year I have treking bars and no that there's no weight on my hands atall, I don't need b-ends...

Convex Motorcycle mirrors, like those above but these do fold ;) http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ROUND-MOTORCYCLE-MOTORBIKE-STREETFIGHTER-BAR-END-FOLDING-MIRRORS-7-8-Handlebar-/221938316948?hash=item33ac8df694:g:DykAAOSwT5tWQyPx
