    Carrera Subway E kickstand

    Hasnt this bike got pre driller holes for a kickstand on the rear chainstay near the disk brake caliper? If so, something like this (if the holes line up) might be more robust...

    Ah, cheers. I'll stick to the fresh stuff, knowing my luck the tin I'll get will have the consistency of French onion soup lol

    BBS01 grease

    Thanks Nealh. Went for a tube of Mobilgrease 28 from SilMid, not cheap at £27 delivered but the aeroshell stuff wasn't much cheaper, it's the postage at about £10 that's the killer. Small price to pay for long life hopefully . Thanks

    BBS01 grease

    Hi all, Just clocked up 1200 miles on my Bafang bbs01 mid drive motor.

Have read mobilgrease 28, aeroshell 22, lithium etc, bit confused with it all, so can...

    If you don't want to go 'full level 5' on tyre protection, but want something that is grippy in all weathers, great puncture protection, and are lighter and roll better, take a look at Schwalbe Energiser Plus. I've run them in 700 x 35 guise on my commuter ebike for the last 4 years, nearly 10k...

    Woosh Faro Review

    You obviously missed the ;-) wink to show I was joking... In all seriousness Kids, don't do it, as Nealh says, your controller WILL go bang and might smoke a bit if you put two 36v batteries in series through your 36v controller....

    Woosh Faro Review

    That's just Nealh picking up on a my schoolboy error and me replying tongue in cheek. The really interesting thing I read today was the development of a battery cell that has a 16 year lifespan, if they can adopt that technology for ebikes then that would be amazing...

    Battery location pros & cons

    I prefer the weight to be as central and as low as possible, like my Boardman MX Comp conversion here. When I put a spare battery in the rack bag, it changes the handling especially on slow awkward turns off-road
