Brake blocks I ride a Lafree with TekTro rim (cantilever) brakes, what do you recommend I get as replacement brake blocks? Derrick - Llanberis

Seen them I have seen Powabyke's there, they seem like something out of the stone age! My present bike is a Lafree which was bought from West end cycles, in Colwyn Bay, I was keen on the new Twist until I had a ride on it. They are nowhere as good as my Lafree:( My aim is to get a...

Someone else confused Look at the link, then you will understand what I am emailing about! Derrick - Llanberis

Puzzled On the wrist of an outstretched arm? I think you have got the wrong impression about the lights I am emailing about. These go on your wrist like a large watch, the LEDs blink when the arm is raised to signal a turn & go off when your hands go down to the handlebar. Derrick -...

Lets have simplicity The Woods/Dunlop valve: I didn't know such things existed. In all my 55 years on/off cycling I have never seen them, to me the only tyre valves were Presta otherwise known as the French valve, or the Schreader. But now I can't understand why cycle makers still persist with...

Here in Snowdonia we haven't had any floods, the water runs off to fast, but when will it stop raining:( Does anyone know if the "oldfashioned" cycle capes are still made & if they are where do I go to get one? My glasses get water droplets on them when I ride in the rain(no surprise!)& I was...

Question Is the Raleigh Leicester E the same bike(more or less) as the Kalkhoff Aggattu? Derrick - Llanberis

Nearly 70 I will be 68 later this month.

Hope again Because of the bikes now using the Panasonic motor Giant can't maintain the fiction that bikes using this motor were to expensive to make, perhaps they might revert to it again? People like me could hope that Giant will offer motor/controller units as spares, for the LaFree ,at a...

Mileage on a re-celled Twist I re-celled my Twist with a Windsor 8Ah battery pack, I used to get 23/24 miles from the original Twist but on the 2nd recharge, on the same sort of journeys, I get 31 miles. BTW there was nothing wrong with my Twist pack, it was the Panasonic charger that was...

A reply to flecc Did your seamstress mother teach you how to shrink frames.:D Derrick - Llanberis

Disabused When I bought my Lafree Twist (with a crossbar) in Dec. 2004 I was 64, imagining I was 30 years younger, I was soon disabused from this dream. The next bike will be a step-thru,either a Kalkhoff or the equivalent Raleigh, I will never buy a bike with a crossbar again! Derrick -...
