    Mahle EBikeMotion.

    Hi. I have a 2019 Ribble ALe fitted with the Mahle system. It has three assistance levels. I find that my preferred riding style is to have either full assistance available or none at all and to enable this I have mapped all three assistance levels at 100% via the App. I.e. assistance is now...

    scooters

    I’m a little confused. So, I can hire an e scooter and do the maximum speed as allowed for e bikes but whilst I don’t have to pedal a scooter, I will still have to pedal my bike? Have I got tbis right?

    Ribble e bike security

    Hi. I’m awaiting a Ribble CGR e ordered in March but that’s another story! As many will know the Ribble system (also used by Orbea) is live in that the battery has to be charged on the bike and in normal use cannot be separated from the bike for charging. Given tbis, can anyone assist with...

    Whyte Coniston Ladies-Shimano Steps System.

    Hi. My wife and I have been viewing the Whtye Coniston. Unfortunately, apart from sitting on one, we have not ridden one! Spec' and weight, riding position all seem fine. We have one question: The Steps system is situated within the "bottom bracket" and we need some idea of what this bike is...

    KTM Macina 29 stolen last night

    My apologies. I received this information second hand. The bike is in fact a Haibike. Still seems suspicious that the purchaser threw away the receipt (£2,500) because it was a present for his son. His story stinks.

    Yet Another London Cyclist Death Today

    True however too many of us are not prepared to dismount when at a hazardous crossing. Doesn't bother me however I do watch anxiously sometimes as riders weave and bob about in traffic. Why not interrupt your ride for 15 seconds or so? More of us may stay alive. Yes, we do have a right to ride...

Unless you aid our understanding by clearly stating your requests and requirements then all your communication on here will have failed. It doesn't have to be this way. Please help...

    Is it time to empty Euro bank accounts?

    Hi. From your earlier posts it you asserted that anyone who has in excess of 100k Euros in these banks is driven by greed........your words. It follows that these people should not complain as they are deserving of their haircut? At present I have in excess of £85k in a U.K...

    Is it time to empty Euro bank accounts?

    Hi Flecc, it was not myself that alluded to greed and greedy hence I have certainly not misrepresented your words. I certainly hadn't realised that you had sufficient access to all 3 banks to enable you to state that the cypriots have largely small accounts. Please state how we can verify...

    Is it time to empty Euro bank accounts?

    Hi. Fortunately, as I move into my 60's I appear to have avoided the cynical approach. Yes, maybe these banks did have offices in Moscow or wherever but then HSBC has it's headquarters in China....so what? Should we not use HSBC accounts? There are or were only 3 banks in Cyprus. One is to be...

    Is it time to empty Euro bank accounts?

    Hi. You seem to have bought into the propaganda about Russians owning much of the deposits in banks. Also, many of us are asset rich during periods of our lives. At other times we may be cash rich. I really can't see how you equate either state to being "greedy".
