    Make my bike seat cover nicer

    It looks fine to me. Just cover it with some faux leather, like a chopper seat. :)

    Stupid question about releasing rear wheel

    Have you tried pulling that lever outwards, in the direction of the arrow, to the centre point?

    She got away with just a buckled rear wheel.

    She would have run the red man light, yes? :oops:

    Update on N.I. e-bike regs.

    Not at all. :) I only put on fb what I want to be on fb. I use it for info, live news and a few other things like laughing at the PSNI. I chat with old colleagues on a secure page not available to just anyone. I don't use it for friends or family, to be contactable, or to show what I like or...

    Update on N.I. e-bike regs.

    If you're happy with vetted, doctored and D-noticed news, no live streamed incidents and events, then feel free to carry on and ignore the benefits of fb. :cool:

    Question about Walk Assist on Shimano Steps

    Walk mode is around 3.7 mph. The bike won't go anywhere if you're sat on it. :)

    At least take the battery, and the bike seat, indoors.

    NATO Forces Test Bultaco Electric Bikes for Fast Response Applications

    Getting into position all depends on the terrain of course. No heat plume either. Something that, I daresay, wasn't accounted for back in the King's own musketeers and fixed bayonet yeomanry eh? :D

    NATO Forces Test Bultaco Electric Bikes for Fast Response Applications

    As a veteran, I can see where this might be militarily beneficial. Route signing to the forward edge of the battle area, or putting a sniper closer to the target, as examples. A 'stealthy' 20 miles around that area, between command posts, where they could be put back on charge, or have a fresh...

    Buying and riding an S-Pedelec in the UK.

    As a slightly faster ebike, but still not as fast as a regular bicycle with a fit rider, there is a demand for them, or more-so 'that aspect', in the UK. However, they've made it very expensive and ridiculous to achieve that aim and, in doing so, it will stop you from going where a pedal bike...

    Concerning gloves...

    @ around 45 seconds into the video I take my gloves off to assess the damage sustained. I assume that they protected me, at least somewhat? :oops:

    Buying and riding an S-Pedelec in the UK.

    It's set up to fail right from the get go.. :eek: There's a lot of paper to wade through First, find yourself a bike. You’ll need to make sure it comes with a Certificate of Conformity, and that it conforms to 168/2013/EU regulations; you’ll need the certificate later. Head off to the...
