@I893469365902345609348566 , how far away from the kerb are you in your videos? I remember reading a study that drivers tend to mirror the distance between you and the kerb (humans like symmetry), so the closer you ride to the kerb, the closer the passes. My worry with the reflector arms is...

This is a favorite rubbish cycle lane of mine: https://goo.gl/maps/PuwcCeJyhztNVq946 Just disappears into the pavement. I refuse to use it as car drivers seem to otherwise think I will just disappear into the pavement too while they move over to avoid that traffic island.

So that's drink plenty of alcoholic fluids tomorrow morning and then see if that Artic has a. spotted me and b. is up-to-date on the highway code. I'll let you know tomorrow! ;o) -I've got most of my route sorted as quite road, cycle way or bridal way. There isn't a good solution for this spot...

Following this with interest and wondered how this impacts pedestrians/cyclists at roundabouts. On part of my commute I need to navigate junct 31 of the M1, and I use the pavement here: https://goo.gl/maps/QZbH5bxQw5zSF7uk7 It is not a pleasant crossing as cars often do not indicate and can...

How frustrating. I have one of these bikes, bought from ebay. I've dealt with the German branch due to a failed charger. The bike is great. What a shame Leon UK do not appear to want your custom or to make a good impression.

I have a moscow which I bought from ebay. Had a faulty charger and couldn't get hold of the UK outfit. Ended up contacting the German arm who sent me a new one under warranty no quibbles, but that was before we became a strong and independent nation (gonna' wash that EU out of my hair...).

Just FYI on the reliability of Wikipedia I think it is worth noting they don't accept the Daily Mail as a source of information as they consider it to be "generally unreliable"...

The situation in China is improving with respect to intellectual property rights. Lego for example recently had a victory against copycats based on reputation alone (i.e. no registered rights involved). We also don't know what the OP has actually disclosed. It is one thing to say "I've developed...

I feel a bit sad reading the above replies and hope the OP isn't put off this forum (nor the person recommending the OP post here). I see a lot of new inventions in my day job and am amazed by how successful some inventions are which I think of as totally useless to begin with (like the...

Not me! :D

Video here: Valeo automatic transmission. Claimed to be more powerful than other systems (probably because it is a 48v system). Also has an immobilization feature. Interesting anyway though not sure I'd be tempted to switch from my hub motor.

No so much disguise as disgust/heebie-jeebies : https://www.pedelecs.co.uk/forum/threads/my-precious-golum-wants-to-make-it-secure.25844/post-335295 *Post may be tongue in cheek and not to be taken as incitement to cause injury. Post is to be taken as non-serious suggestion

I've got the NCM Moscow. I brought it on ebay and used a credit card rather than paypal just in case. I think the motor and controller are the same. As it is a 48V system I found it real improvement on the hills compared to 36V systems such as the other two bikes you mention. All the mechanical...

The bike came set to normal. I agree it is a pain. Part of me is looking forward to the controller going pop and then having an excuse to move to a KT. When I bought it I'd hoped it would be set up more similar to the Oxygen S-Cross. I'm still happy with it though.

I confirm I am only able to access the power adjustment in the secret menu on the NCM Moscow Plus.
