Here we have a most excellent pr of Shimano MT-35 wheels, size 622/19c or 700c. These were my spare/summer wheels for my 29er Cube. The front wheel still has a Shimano disc fitted and I'll throw in another for the back along with a brand new 9 speed Shimano cassette (12/36) In very good order...

has anyone any experience of forward crank or flat foot bikes, typically known as beach cruisers. I've always liked the idea but haven't seen anything like it in my area (Northampton) Now With my bad back I'm riding more upright than ever, especially on my human only powered bike. Also I think...

OK not bike related but with the money they make I'll buy a small quality monocular I can take with me on my country rides ;) Binoculars Bushnell 8x42WA 132000 A quality pr of bins but I only have one good eye so I'm going for a monocular instead. These were £145 new and are still in...

I stumbled across this GPS enabled device earlier this evening. http://vengecycle.com If some scallywag should move your bike more than 50m from where you left it, the handlebars explode :eek: I don't suppose they get UK government approval :(

I didn't check my basket when I hit "pay now" and I've ended up buying the wrong size sprocket:( So you can take advantage of my mistake and grab a new 18 tooth sprocket to fit a Bosch active/performance motor for £10 posted.:) Intereste ? Send me a personal message to sort out payment (...

A new friend has the above cycle and has joined me on several country rides. Now my Cube 29er takes most things in it stride. Although this folding byocycle has the power to keep up its not nice for longer rides. One of the bigger problems is pedal ground clearance, at the bottom of its stroke...

OK so what I have is a T6 LED cycle light, USB powered (5V) and a whole bunch of Lipo's. 1S & 2S aswell as several 18650 cells and both a step up 3.7v to 5v 1A board and a step down 2S to 5V 3A device. Today while tinkering with bits of wire and batteries I tried the light on every combination...

As in the title, my Bosch powered Cube has only covered 1400 miles, mostly on dry roads. I recently checked the chain and it's just worn enough to need replacing without changing the cassette. I went for a straight like for like swap (KMC 9 spd) but even after degreasing & re-oiling with light...

On the iplayer or BBC's website. Left me speechless.

Hi folks, I thought I'd ask on here if anyone knows a stockist of heavy duty tubes (29" X 2.1") I know there's no such thing as a puncture proof tube but I need something ! On a recent ride I picked up 3 punctures in two miles (canal towpath) I was about to order a pr of ......... MERRICK...

OK so I've done over 800 trouble free miles on my cube reaction, I've sussed the range'O'meter and can expect the distance shown in Eco mode works out equal to my overall distance covered, I tend to save the power for strong headwinds and big hills using various power settings. Anywho back to...

OK like lots of people I'm not built like a racing snake. Finding suitable cycling clothing is a pain, most jacket sleeves 3" to long for me and that's just for starters. So seeing on Dragons Den, someone wanted support for there fuller figure cycle clothing range, this woke me from my slumber...

Here's one for the tech minded folk. OS Explorer 1:25000 maps are perfect, showing byways & bridalways, unfortunately I am located at a crossover area for this series of maps and need to use the corners & edges of several std maps to cover my local biking area. I don't want to carry 2 or 3 maps...

I've been cycling around Northampton for years but only recently noticed while crisscrossing the M1, each bridge I use (main road or country lane) there's a small pice of orange tape tied to the railings. So far it's been on 4 out of 5 bridges I've crossed & on the 5th bridge it was attached to...

OK a question for those that are familiar with the mechanics of the Bosch motor, it might be trivial but. I'm only 250 miles from new and today I've developed a click or tick sound, it's independent of the motor ( on or off it's still there) It's on the down stroke of the left peddle and only...

OK so I'm a smart ass, :D Two sets of wheels, one has Presta and the other Schrader valves (cos that's what I had at the time) I alway carry a spr tube with a Presta valve, (presta fitting both rims) that's the smart bit. Anywho, yesterday I stopped to help someone with a flat, he was cursing...

Somewhere between sane & insane is unsane :confused: This is my Unsane idea for a spare seat-post & handlebars To create a stable upside down bike while I'm changing wheels :cool: Also keeps my saddle out of the dirt :p

OK so I've had my Cube for a fortnight now, I've only managed 4 good rides so far what with work, the weather and other similarly annoying things. Anywho, after a dodgy start to my ownership ( dealer issues ) I'm now up & running. To help with my short arm & dodgy (rebuilt) elbow I have fitted a...

OK so I have a loveeeerly new Cube reaction pro 29er which is "Most Exelent" I also have a second pr of tyres. The plan is "Big Apples" for light trails and road work, "Smart Sam's" for the loose or muddy trails. I would like a second set of wheels so I can make a quick change as an when I...

Earlier this year I built up an extra battery to extend the range on my Agattu only to end up selling the bike after only two rides on this new battery ! So what I have for sale is 2 x 7s 5amp lipos brought from Hobbyking. I have joined them together with both an XT60 and a balance plug "Y" lead...
