Could you give me more info on this?

Really, then why was I given the details of this man by Norman Bicycle repair man who said he was ' the wisper mechanic in my area'

The travel agents look like this, and were fitted by your mechanic in Kent http://www.bike-components.de/images/product_images/popup_images/17964_1_qbp_travel-agent_v-b.jpg I have contacted Norman and am awaiting his reply. Mussels I am surprised to hear that your back brake is also...

Ive used the sidewinders and they were fine after i replaced the faulty tyre Sidewinder Easy Fit Inner tube 24 & 26 Inch Wheels

A word or caution about the circular travel agents used to give extra pull on the brake levers. Mine failed last night whilst I was going down hill, I managed to stop the bike by dragging my feet and allowing the pedals to hit the back of my calves. It turns out that the cable had worked itself...

Well, I've had the brakes serviced again by bikefix Bikefix - the bike shop on your desktop and am pleased to say that they are now working ok. They were fitted with circular springs which increased pull on the cables and I haven't needed to adjust them since so that is great! The power...

Thanks David, I'll have a chat with Norman later. :)

I've just returned from my commute home during which I saw a guy and a girl on what looked like a normal mountain bike, but it had a large disc of a motor on the front wheel (much larger than a wisper motor) the guy was using throttle only and overtaking the commuters on racing bikes with the...

All sorted now, I got one of these socket spanners and tightened the nut, Norman sent some new ones but I realised the nut was still inside the crank arm :)

Thanks Mussels, I've contacted Norman and I'll do a search for your thread. :)

Does anyone know how to re-fit a left crank arm on a wisper 905 se sport. It came off whilst I was cycling home and although I tried to push it back on, there doesn't appear to be anything to fix it too. Any help would be much appreciated. moon

I was thinking of a jacket made out of the thermal picnic bag type material, you could then pop the snapz inside so the heat is kept in. I think I will try to make one and see :)

I guess we all love to cycle so they will persist, cycling gets more popular by the day and they've been around for ages. The fun factor is very important!
