Maybe I'm missing something here.... like his number plates :rolleyes:

Soundwave probably crashes more than most though :rolleyes:

Even though he kept his cool throughout the insurance blag, you could tell he was shaken by the run in, and knew he had got away with it by a cat's whisker. Still love to know what he showed the copper on his phone o_O

I'll let you lot dissect this, as I'm still reeling from amazement :eek:

What you've got to think about with the Cyclamatic, which is something I forgot to mention before, is that the rear wheel is a pig to remove in the event of a puncture. I seem to remember having to faff about removing the band brake bracket and cable, before the wheel could be removed. Also...

Yeah, I guess you're right Rob. When I stopped, I spotted a few broken shells, but that was probably a coincidence. There's a few areas along the CTC, where the mischievous scoundrels smash bottles in the middle of the path. Why they do this is beyond me, but two new Marathon Pluses will be my...

Really nice bike. Shouldn't take too long for some lucky forum member to snap that up.

Excellent link. Good price too. Two questions Rob. How long does delivery take? I recently suffered a puncture on my rear Schwalbe Land Cruiser. Impatient to get out and about again, I bought a new Land Cruiser Plus with improved puncture resistance to get me going again. I got the puncture...

Treat yourself to some Schwalbe Land Cruiser Plus tyres: http://www.schwalbe.com/gb/tour-reader/land-cruiser-plus.html They are a nice compromise between low rolling resistance on the road, grip on muddy surfaces and cost. They also give piece of mind for puncture protection. Make sure you...

I remember that the rear band type brake, was prone to locking the rear wheel, particularly in wet and slippery conditions. Not the progressive braking that modern hydraulic brakes offer, but the Cyclamatic was never designed to be a performance bike. Ideally suited to the daily commute and...

Can confirm that running a BBSxx without a throttle is actually pretty good. It's easy to match the speed and gear of the bike with the correct PAS level, by using the +/- buttons as you mention. I've got a kit with the Bafang C965 display, and the control pad can be positioned close to your...

No, It's long gone now. I initially bought it as a back up to the car for work. After a few test rides out, the electric bike bug bit and I ended up riding it for a bit of fun on my days off instead. I carried out a few changes during its lifetime, such as increasing the original controller's...

I remember receiving a massive discount when I bought mine a few years ago, and ended up paying something like £400. Sports HQ always seem to have them on offer, it's just a case of waiting for the deals to come out. Like anything made in China at such a low price, you get your good ones and...

The biggest issue will be the battery. Lithium batteries deteriorate with age, so if it's a few years old, don't expect to get a great deal of miles out of it before the battery runs out of juice. If you can test ride the bike, then excellent. If not, proceed with caution. Nothing worse than...

Don't have one now, but have owned, maintained, modified and ironed out problems on one a few years back. What do you need to know?

I had already spotted that website, but I should have mentioned that I need them in 26" and they don't appear to do that size. Thanks very much for taking the time to supply the link :)

If anyone has found a UK source for these tyres, could you post here please. Must be ones with new dynamic profile: http://www.schwalbe.com/gb/offroad-reader/marathon-plus-mtb.html

You could try Luna Cycle: http://lunacycle.com/motors/bafang-mid-drive-and-parts/bafang-bbs02-and-bbshd-programming-cable/ Do you really need a controller with the upgraded FETs? I've been running my BBS02 with the older FETs, for over 1500 miles without problems. I've increased the 'Keep...
