    Kudos tornado

    His decision would all depend on whether he wants to build it himself or buy e ready to go bike. The Tornado would pull his weight ok. What height is he! The Kudos Typhoon has bigger wheels than the Tornado so would suit better if he's tall.

    Tyres! Again :)

    I looked for marathon plus but couldn't find them in the correct size for the Typhoon. What size dud you get?

    Tyres! Again :)

    I've ordered a smart Sam plus which I'll stick on the back. If it's OK I'll get one for the front. Cheers all.

    Bike ordered: Kudos Arriba. Child seat required!

    It's solid enough that I carry my spare battery on it. You wouldn't need that type for your King though. That one is designed for bikes with no mounting points for a rack. The same company make a rack with proper mountings. You'd need to make some small alterations to put your battery on it...

    Kudos King

    Have you tried Kudos? I broke the rack on my Tourer and got a new one from Kudos.

    Tyres! Again :)

    OK, I've now got the Tourer on Schwalbe marathon plus tyres and I've been thinking about the Typhoon. It's 29 * 2.1 and on the schwalbe site it looks like I need either smart sam or rocket ron tyres. I'm looking for a tyre with some puncture protection. Has anyone tried either of these? Or, is...

    Bike ordered: Kudos Arriba. Child seat required!

    I put a rack on a Typhoon, it's this one: http://www.amazon.co.uk/M-Wave-One-4-All-Aluminium-Carrier-440174/dp/B00CXSVPP6/ref=sr_1_1?s=sports&ie=UTF8&qid=1437410694&sr=1-1&keywords=M-Wave+One-4-All+Aluminium+Carrier+%28Model+440174%29+-+Black I also had to buy...

    Which Kudos?

    A torque sensor requires you to be putting in effort all the time. It adds power depending on how much effort you're putting in. A pedal sensor simply realises that the pedals are moving and puts in full power no matter how much or how little effort you're putting in.

    Advice on carrying 2 bikes on car, please.

    A standard tow ball fits the thule cycle racks. Just don't grease it. It clamps on well.

    Opinions Please.....?

    I don't live in Bonnybridge, I had just cycled out that way for a change. Strangely though, I married a girl from Denny 36 years ago. She's making me a cup of tea as we speak. I live on the other side of Falkirk and had gone the opposite direction of the cafe where I was meeting my wife. Hence...

    Opinions Please.....?

    I raced along the Tow paths from Bonnybridge to Linlithgow last week. I was racing the clock as I'd arranged to meet my wife at a cafe. I was up about 20mph in places. It's not for the feint hearted. I'll not be doing it again. :)

    BBC stirs trouble for cyclists

    On Saturday up here, a jogger was knocked down by a cyclist on a pavement. The jogger died today. There is a problem with some reckless cyclists.

    Just in case you are confused, here's something else.

    I like the look of that but, I suspect you're right. It won't be as good as it seems. It says the battery is 22v

    Aye, but how far do you ride it on one charge? ;)

    Best Ebike mileage.....on ONE battery charge

    The best I've done on my Kudos Tourer on one 10ah battery is 45 miles. I posted about it at the time. I used power level 4 & 5. It was a warm sunny day. I was impressed with the bike and with myself that day. The bike was weighed down with all my gear, including a spare battery.

    Two wheel invalid carriages again

    I never replied to your last thread but, this one interested me. OK, name the rugby club and I'll phone it and find out which post actually won. If you can't name it, you aren't a member. Do you accept the challenge? A real rugby player would accept this challenge with relish.
