So, after about 4 or 5 weeks and a little over 200 miles all is still good with the 3 speed conversion, I ended up using the original narrow axle as fitted to the Sturmy 3 speed and just adjusted the o.l.d. to about 130 mm using spacers between the lock nuts, the axle thread had a good few turns...

Can a battery be illegal?

The 2 smallest wires on my BBS are for the light.

I have a few dash cams from my car driving days, one is powered by usb and I have tried it out on the bike.

I've just down loaded DaVinci onto my Windows 10 desktop but it keeps crashing. As it's loading I get an error "unable to load plug in: USD.plugin DLL initialisation routine failed" It does load and I'm able to import and combine clips, but it'll frequently fail and the program closes. Any ideas?

I've had over 20 Vauxhall Omegas over the years and they were one of the first cars to offer modern xenon headlights to the mainstream back around the year 2000, the government said they could only be fitted if they had automatic self leveling which, in the case of the Omega, uses sensors on the...

So your bike is faster than the speed of light?

A few pictures.

They do a road side swab which tests for cocaine and cannabis (why not heroin I wonder?) which is very accurate, this leads to an evidential blood test.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-devon-68698286 This one is a bit different in that the bike rider is in his 40's and the car driver is in his 20's and has been found to be unfit through drugs...

I chose to purchase from a UK based supplier when I was looking for my mid drive kit around 18 months ago, the company I decided on now seems to have closed... https://custombuilt-ebikes.co.uk/ Custom Built Ebikes is now closed It is with a heavy heart that we announce the closure of our...

I'm just back from an initial test ride after fitting the 3 speed and all seems good so far, there was a bit of a noise which I've just identified as the link in the single speed chain passing through the tensioner, but other than that I'm happy with the conversion from 7 speed derailleur.

I don't have a HD but the one I do have has a function whereby you can limit the amount of power being delivered so hopefully t'will be fine.

Thanks for the replies, I've had a think and have decided to fit a 3 speed Sturmy Archer hub to my existing bike instead, see if that can quell the desire I have for New Stuff. I purchased a new hub already built into a 700c wheel a few months ago but when I came to fit it I realised the axle...

Is he still on the Forum, E-Pashley? It's been a while but if he is then I too would like to add my praise for his obvious conversion skills, he's done a luverly job.

...has any one done this? I'm hankering after some shiny new metal as a bit of a treat for my upcoming birthday and have spotted a new belt drive bike with hub gears, It looks like the bike uses a concentric bottom bracket to tension the belt and I'm wondering if it would be possible to at least...

I have only one child, she'll be 22 this year, we purposefully gave her a lot of freedom as a child (as I my self had back in the 80's). She has turned out fine (apart from being a traffic warden) and has been living independently since the age of eighteen, never been in serious trouble nor...

From the picture it looks like your pads have worn low and allowed the brake arm to contact the mudguard.

My Bafang display has a separate control panel that are hard wired together, I'm guessing the op's problem is due to the wires being pulled free from their soldered connections to the circuit board. I'd take it apart and see if it could be reattached.

Nothing wrong with that Dude, it has loads of life left on it. (That's a joke by the way, sarcasm does count as humour). Here is my worn out rear wheel, purchased new in December 2022. I'm looking for a replacement that is a bit wider than the current 19 m.m.
