Thats the one I keep seeing.

It's welded with an ancient sip stick welder. 40 yr old big heavy transformer lump. I'm sorely tempted by the hand held stick guns that keep popping up on Facebook.

Nah, I buy caviar can-apes with the profits, I live in the middle of an estate, shoot peasants for sport. Being a kind and caring socialist I find it better than watching them suffer with disability and madness. You of all people must agree Shirley.

What is this "ruski gas" of which you spake several pages ago? My house now has ASHP, Solar and Battery, selling more voles than I'm eating. I also buy them and freeze them at night while they are asleep, sell them to my poor neighbours to eat at tea time when they are expensive. About to get a...

Don't know what's going on but Speeed is still on my phone, not used it for ages.

Thanks, I have a small bum bag on my headstock all the excess wires and connectors live in, I'll probably tape it inside a small ziplock bag initially so it can't short out etc. The switched fused live feed and wago connectors for lights and phone charger live in there too. The money pocket...

Hi @saneagle Hmm, I fancy the legal low speed throttle arrangement for bbs01b. I find the throttle useful. I was thinking about going the DVLA low speed moped route but this is cheaper and neater, still legal to ride bridleways and footpaths. I've ordered the trimpot and a 3 pin extension...

Sounds like rusted hinge pins. Need to get help to work the hinges with penetrating oil to loosen it up maybe.

Well, that just confirms my theory that there are lots of lovely dog owners and there are Mad Cat Women, some of whome go in the guise of male ecyclists. Do you collect all the dead small birds to eat in pies too?

And cats, there's more than enough on facebook. So many cats, not enough recipes! I hope they've been trained to **** in their owner's flowerbeds.

I fitted the woosh kit with frog battery, very neat, battery locks on to the mounting block that fits onto the bag mount block. The frog battery could be improved with a white lense on the light, the red lens is useless for the front.

Re handlebars, a while back I met an aggressive tram track and patch of tarmac that did for my wrist temporarily, a few months while it healed. I bought a Humpert Handlebar, swept back, so now I ride in a sit up and beg position, no pressure on wrists, comfortable.

I use Google Fit on Android to track my rides and walks, there's a basic mode by default and a more accurate mode, select for walk/cycle. It does average speed, altitude etc. I don't need to export anything, I've no need. I generally just check It out when I've got home. It just works while the...

The speed limit is set on the display on my bike. Immsmr press + and - together when display is on, scroll through the settings by brief press of I/O button. When speed is displayed go up or down with + or -. Can be done while you are moving, if your quick enough, before the plod look at your bike;)

I used a tyre glider, easy off easy on. https://tyreglider.co.uk/ Anyway young uns today should have no bother getting the last bit into the rim, they have extra large thumbs from phone gaming/texting
