    Interesting Bike Stuff

    The rear view camera is a great idea, but obviously needs improvement. I would possibly be in the market for a such a product.

    Argos E-Move - Anyone have any experience with these bikes?

    It has rear disk brake mounts, very handy. One could immediately upgrade to a rear hydraulic disk brake for about £30, this would not only improve the braking performance but also save the rear rim. Upgrade the forks and front brake in the fulness of time.

    Easily changed with one of these for not much money, then fit a better stem.

    Help! Converting folder bike to cassette

    So how did you attach the battery to the frame? I know your frame has two bolt holes but the pictures on Yosepower seem to show some kind of seatpost clip.

    I believe there are many different strengths of threadlock, I understand some people use blue Loctite 243

    Well, I'm no expert but how come so many of these bolts come with threadlock pre-applied?

    Finally its rideable!

    You have an eye for detail sir. I noticed you have redundant brake sensor connections, and throttle, I think. You can buy a Julet 1-2 cable (display+throttle) from Topbikekit for $3.72, I have one but have blanked off the throttle connector. They come in two different lengths...

    Very nice, both bikes. Are the tyres bigger on the orange bike? How much was the powder coating and where did you get it done? What make is that nice polished crankset on the orange one?

    So, just to make extra sure. The bolt holding that crank/chainrings on undoes anti-clockwise. The only two places you will find left-hand threads is the left pedal and the chain-side bottom bracket . By all means squirt some WD40 or whatever on there. But get some leverage and just gently rock...

    When you say 'chain cogs' do you mean the 3 chainrings, next to the pedals? If so and you are using the crank puller tool correctly (and double check you are), then you may need leverage. I once had a bike I had to use a length of scaffolding pole to give me enough leverage. Where I'm getting...

    I'm confused, I thought the OP was asking about BB removal? In the first post in this thread he posted a picture of a BB removal tool, but couldn't figure out what size adjustable spanner to use with it LOL. OP, seriously mate just watch some Youtube videos.

    Cyclotricity Stealth Chainring and crank arms suggestions?

    Strangely, a quick browse of eBay of those Bucklos style cranksets only now go up to 42 teeth. Strange because they still sell the chainring separately up to 52 teeth. Very odd.

    Cyclotricity Stealth Chainring and crank arms suggestions?

    I have 42 teeth, it's ok, I can get to top speed (about 17-19 MPH) in top gear on the flat without running out of gears, which is fast enough for me (top gear is 11 teeth on my cassette). However, saneagle recommends 48 teeth. I certainly run out of gears if I try pedalling downhill, but I don't...

    err.....I assume you have a square taper bottom bracket?

    Cyclotricity Stealth Chainring and crank arms suggestions?

    I meant how many teeth does it have? LOL. If you replace the whole lot, it doesn't matter what the BCD is. I bought one of these, chain ring and cranks: eBay

    Cyclotricity Stealth Chainring and crank arms suggestions?

    There are a couple of tools you are going to need. A 15mm pedal spanner and a crank puller. I recommend you watch some Youtube videos on how to use a crank puller, also the left-hand pedal has a left-hand thread (you will probably know this already). What size chainring do you currently have?
