all you can do is your bit. though a bit more than changing to low energy lightbulbs and turning off the tap while you brush your teeth... so much green advice is innane. kyoto wont work but nor will any other plan. we are just too motivated for our own ends to follow somebody elses plan. but...

yes that amazon link is the one. if i remember rightly the mule has a clamp on hitch (on to the frame of the bike) as opposed to a hitch arrangement at the axle. the only trailers i see around here are the children carrying kind.

good point ian i had not considered that. i suppose there is also an extra security hassle at destination but then again the trailer would cope with the weight of multiple locks to secure bike and trailer.

How many members use trailers rather than panniers? On longer runs it would seem a good place for a spare battery. One cheap trailer is the raleigh mule. Anybody have experience of this trailer?

i would agree frank on the downward stroke you should be stopping short of a straight leg to maintain an ever so slight flex at the knee. its not a strange question to ask at all re saddle height as you can at best be inefficient with the wrong height and at worse over time damage your knee joints.

flecc surely an over reaction and a value judgement. why does this forum set itself up for conflict over differing opinions of 5o cycles? I dont think referring to members post as idiocy is particularly fair. "My advice to 50 Cycles would be, develop your customer service skills and product...

see how selling imaginary bikes can get you in a whole heap of....... :rolleyes:

a skirt guard is not much, alot of people would remove that anyway. if you dont get joy from 50 cycles you could probably sell it through the forum for a decent price. try 50 cycles and if that doesnt work out put an ad on the forum.

swap! or even make a profit judging by the desperation of some for the product. but yes definitely worth a call to 50 cycles :cool:

dahons often change season to season and whilst i have not followed it closely enough to know how true delivery estimates have turned out to be alot of internet suppliers do flag up that stock wont arrive until june in some cases. the problem here as we have acknowledged before has been the...

agreed flecc. sound reasons for the weight but still too much of it for the odd occassion of misjudgement with your battery charge when faced with inclines. or indeed lifting the bike. though even lifting the 20k pro connect would be too much on a frequent basis.

Carrera Sparc Electric Bike from Halfords Was £749.99 Save £100.00 Price £649.99 a halfords sparc bike reduced if ordered through the internet. you then pick the bike up at your local store.

you cant argue with that record ian. what did you think of the later f series bikes by comparison? when i first started reading a2b and looking at internet resources the sprint was supposed to be a stalwart and the original torq the next big step. i take your point about worldwide suppliers of...

the long term reliability is a good point. in recent times a snap shot of this forum would have led you to believe the best choice was ezee not withstanding the lithium battery issue. certainly the torq in its time got alot of attention. i agree with you flecc the kalkhoff does look like an...

well harry seemed happy enough hey tim! and you got through your last livs. up on the whole deal i would say :)
