Just broke 2 more after years of no problems because I regularly ping, I suspect that it is metal fatigue, both spokes as usual, went at the J bend. I hear that it can be helpful to oil the bend so that the spoke can make minute movements. But because of the need to remove the tyre etc. to...

Some years ago d8veh posted about a new 2 speed hub motor and was full of its praises, so I expected to see new bikes offered for sale with 2 speed motors, but nothing seems to have happened.

My Avid BB7 needs new pads, but what type? Sintered, semi-metal, organic?

Have we got it wrong? They make the point that concentrating only on cycling infrastructure is not enough.

Apologies for the political nature of this demonstration in the USA, but I thought that members might be very interested to see just how many Seattle Police are using bikes and the way that they line them up to make a moving barricade.

Many cycle pannier racks including both of my own have a very strong spring device looking like a large trap for rats. How is this supposed to work? Other than a newspaper or something thin, I cannot see how else it operates.

We used to enjoy these petrol bikes a lot, but memory dims, I had forgotten just how noisy they were.

Advancing years and living in a hilly district means that I need greater torque. Crank driving is the obvious answer and I have one. But I need more. Now a certain well respected member has advertised kits and at one time advertised a 350 watt motor, but has now withdrawn the advert. My next...

Getting fed up having to pump my tyres up every few weeks. None of my car/campervan/boat trailer tyres need this much attention, often going 12 months or so. Car tyres used to need regular attention, even tubeless. So, what is the answer for bikes? I don't want to go tubeless, so my question is...

Felt cold on the bike today, kept to 10mph. Winter woollies on tomorrow!

Yet again, I have had to replace a broken spoke, again broken at the 'J' bend. So, I feel that it is time to debate modern spokes. I rode bikes throughout the 1950s, then motorised bikes for few years and then motor cycles. Later, in 1986 I again began cycling, using a 'Universal' made bike that...

Just had the usual kerfuffle changing a broken rear wheel spoke. Has anybody ever considered making the 'J' end detachable? It could be threaded, perhaps an inch or so long, fitted into the hole which the broken spoke has vacated, then all you would need is a straight spoke, threaded at both...
