It largely depends what I'm doing and where I'm riding. If I'm going to one of the organised mtb events, then I'll take a shed load of stuff along with me in the van. Over and above items listed lower, I'll take along items such as a track pump, various lubes, a box of nuts and bolts...

You need to watch those laces! ;)

Two for me. The superb Recon 661. My only criticism with this helmet is wind noise. It makes an odd noise, that makes you think that that there is a car right on your tail. It was disconcerting to start with, but now I don't tend to even notice it. The weight is good, the peak works well, and I...

I'd like to see one that has this kind of treatment. The only treatment that my KTM will get, is some heli tape applied to key vulnerable areas. .

I gave this light a proper work out yesterday, and have to say that I'm very impressed with it. The Fenix is mounted to the handle bars of the bike, and I have attached the new light to what was a redundant cycle helmet. I thought that it might have proved be too heavy, but I can't say that I...

It would appear that I was completely wrong to say that I didn't like the white finish of the KTM Lycan Macina Plus. That is rather tasty. :)

A few from yesterdays ride.

I was looking back at some photos from my hols of this year, and was reminded of this. I can't imagine anywhere in the UK that you could just leave a bike unlocked and with the battery/lock key left dangling.

cost wiseMusicbooks, I have just bought Dave's second recommendation, and it arrived today. First impressions of it are way better than I had been expecting. The quality is very good, which includes the light unit, the battery, the wiring and connector, and the battery storage case. It's a bit...

Whichever brand of bike that it had been, I'd still be saying that it's ugly and looks a mash up. As you say, each to their own and I can't get excited by a bit of ally welding, polishing and a Heath Robinson looking chain drive system. They have let themselves down with such an agricultural...

I still think that it looks like a lash up of a homebrew dogs dinner.

So I was right then... A complete dogs dinner with an extra dollop of pudding poured over the top.

From looking at your photo, it looks to be a fat bike, and from the angle of the final drive chain, it must also have a massively low 1st gear? That's some crazy low gearing, and potentially a very good climber. The show looks to be very quiet. edit.. I don't think that the drive sprocket to...

Thankfully my backside was covered for that one.:D

SRS, if and when you do go to see the current seller, I'd suggest that you take along some way of recording what is said, and possible request that your local community police officer or what ever they are called these days, goes along with you. You come across as being completely sound and...

I was using the single bulb version tonight whilst working outside, and have to admit that a similar though crossed my mind. One thing that I don't think that has possibly been mentioned in this thread, is also that it's sensible to carry a mini/micro torch for when things inevitably go wrong...

Got one on order. Thanks Dave.

Only just spotted this. Nice one, and congratulations. The KTM clan is building rapidly.:) I might have even persuaded someone else today into buying a KTM. That's three potential sales in one week, and none of them have even tried an e-mtb. I've also just ordered up a further two Mucky Nutz...

The one that I saw was on a commuter style bike, and was also the only one that I'd ever seen. I'd loved to have had a try of it though, and have a suspicion that it would have been very good.

KTM are there. Here is a list of the bikes. http://www.pedelecs.co.uk/forum/threads/ktm-at-the-nec-cycle-show-25th-28th-september.19003/#post-236917 Wander, don't forget that Giant already use the Yamaha motor, so they could be worth looking out for if that is what you are interested in. I...
