Polaroid (i.e. polarised) sunglasses will greatly decrease the intensity of reflected light, so that will help a lot on the current wet shiny salty roads. > Ride out west in the morning, ride back east in the afternoon. :D Like it. However, it's others not seeing you that is the greatest...

On a more general note, larger wheels will give you a more stable ride because of the additional gyroscopic force they give. The gyroscopic motion acts to keep the bike in line once you're rolling. However, 25" is reasonably large anyway.

"Which is a mere 2% of the cost of the camera body, sir, for peace of mind. You don't want to be taking a risk damaging your new purchase with a sub-standard battery, do you? How would you like to pay? Cash, card or Coutts?"

I'd say at £1300 the Faro is probably the only sensible choice, regardless of tyres, i.e. weight, known supplier, price. You could try for a secondhand Boardman 8.9e HYB or an Orbea Gain/Vibe which both have a lot of tyre clearance, but then you'll have very little comeback if the bike goes...

Fazua motors, which the OP has, are pretty well protected from water ingress: - the motor is above the bottom bracket, within the removable 'battery' (it's actually a combined motor+battery unit). - the only way for water to get in is by it getting in the top of the removable motor+battery unit...

Please could you tell us the problems you've had, so we know what to look out for? I'm a Fazua owner - with no problems so far, but you're getting through the miles quicker than me. Cheers...

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/dec/22/risk-of-hospital-stay-40-lower-with-omicron-than-delta-uk-data-suggests 40% less overnight stays. That's really good. However, balancing that out is the rate of spread of Omicron appears greater than 140%* compared to Delta. Hence we're still...

Quite right - I've reported him, Andy.

Love the Tailwind C - carbon all round is very impressive. A nice step forward! A couple of questions: - does it have mudguard & rack eyelets? - the battery looks removable - correct?

Neither website gives details about the envronmental or polution-free aspects of your bikes compared to others. I also see no physical address on either website, so I'd say you're spamming us. Reader beware.

Four choices. The other two are: 3. Learn how to change a tube (and carry a spare tube & tools, of course) 4. Take a phone & call a friend/taxi I'd say 3 is the best approach. It's not hard to do, but it's best to get someone to show you how*, and then you can have a go whilst they guide you...

From observing our tarmac drive degrade 25 over years, the damage is mostly from material squashed between tyre and tarmac, and it's at it's worse where vehicles turn. How does the material (gravel, mud, stones) get there? Freeze/thaw action starts the damage initially in our case, then once you...

We can see them, but personally I can't help. Sorry :(

You've posted at least 20 links with no context/comment in the previous 2 pages (I couldn't be bothered to go further back than that.) It's akin to shouting the title at passers-by. Were you add some context to your posts readers could decide if they're worthy of further investigation. Just a...

These work well if you're after bar-end mirrors: Busch + Müller Mirror, Cycle-Star 80

I can't recommend any goggles as such, but Muc-Off Anti-Fog works well for general anti-fogging of glasses, goggles, visors, etc. Expensive, but a bottle is good for many tens of squirts.

Excellent advice. I never knew they existed. Much appreciated, Nealh.

My worry is that at least two of those lights appear powerful enough (in lumens and spread) to dazzle oncoming traffic. They need a dip feature for road use. Do such dippable bike lights exist?

Am I the only reader to immediately think 'Is this about how far you can travel only fueled by a box of cake'?
