dont bother the amps output from the bosch motor is tiny what you have is way more and cost less.

How long will it run at 53,000 lumens? Long enough to unlock, switch on and mount your bike on a dark night?

it drops to 15000 if temps get to hot so keep going fast

There is another one which now claims 60,000 lumens.

it drops to 15000 if temps get to hot so keep going fast

I was thinking of this table of run times:

TURBO: 53000lm for 3minutes + step down to 15000 lumens for another 78 minutes
High Ⅲ: 30000lm for 4 minutes + step down to 15000 lumens for another 80 minutes
High Ⅱ: 15000lm for 1 hours and 36 minutes
High Ⅰ: 7500lm for 2 hours and 45 minutes
Middle Ⅱ: 3800lm for 5 hours and 45 mintues
Middle Ⅰ: 1900lm for 11 hours and 10 minutes
Middle Low: 900lm for 22 hours
Low: 300lm for 55 hours.

I really love night riding...

I like night riding because I get more exercise. Once it's really dark and there are no other lights, my imagination starts to hear footsteps that are clearly keeping up with me. So I pedal faster.
Then once I'm going faster, my imagination feels the thing with the footsteps hot, fetid breath on the back of my neck
And when I'm flat out and not far from home, cycling at a rate that only sheer blind terror allows, my imagination then ramps it up by letting me feels it's warm, soft fur brush past me.
I generally lock that garage door quite quickly, get in the back door, which I try to lock casually, all the while knowing I mustn't fumble the keys because I have 5.... 4.... 3... 2.. 1 seconds before the door can still be opened by... it
Wifey says 'nice ride love?'
'Yeah' I say, 'nearly perfect cycling weather'.... 'I've got spare lights if you wanna join me?'. She hasn't yet.

This was Conwy harbour North Wales just two days ago. Not even been out on bike today weather so bad let alone try and take any pictures in this storm.

I haven't been into the local playground for a week or so, but found the time this afternoon to get in there again for a play. Sadly it would seem that forestry extraction has started again, but luckily it has so far only affected one of the fire roads that I tend to use. I'm being more positive about it this time, as it might well open up some more riding possibilities for me.

Good to finally get back to a bit of wet weather riding as well.

Had a nice early morning ride, it's still dark when I go out but nice and cool, still goes up to high twenties in the day, some pictures taken on my way back home at Paphos Harbour.

Some people are just so lucky.......it was colder here

 

[soundwave]

man take off them plastic discs they look cheap n nasty lol

 

[Dom T]

Soundwave you'll be very pleased to know, THEY ARE GONE . It broke following this ride

 

[soundwave]

id have cut it off with some wire snips as there not meant to be left on these days not those ones anyway as look shite!

tho i have one for my rear mavic wheels it wont be installed as it is still crap and held on buy the spokes.

and its so thin it would not do much anyway if the chain went in to the spokes just look after the gears and index them and it will never be a problem

 

[Dom T]

I hope my news has pleased you, it had to be cut off like you said and I promise to never have them on again

The one bike shed.... although the B'Twin has gone, the other shed houses the Haibikes.

 

[Dom T]

The big black cupboard is on casters so it swivels and the other side houses the rucksacks, helmets and much more.

 

[EddiePJ]

Another lovely afternoon of fun.

I will stick to the dryer routes for now.
