Tribute or Honey Dew for me.

Sadly it also shows up the ever increasing wear and tear. What did amaze me was that despite the bike having a new chain and me cleaning it off and oiling yesterday, I decided today that I'd give the chain cleaning bath that I bought from Lidls a few weeks ago a try. I couldn't believe just how...

4 hours of stripping down, cleaning and checking things over, and the bike is once again all set for yet another outing of getting dirty. :)

Enjoy. :)

Things have already changed in the space of just a few weeks. According to todays Wiggle event, my fastest time off road is now 35.1mph. The conditions were very wet, but my riding felt 'almost' controlled, and a hell of a lot smoother. :)...

Hi Tim thanks for asking. I'd gladly ride with you, although being on the Focus Thron, you would definitely have to wait for me. ;) I have to eek out as much battery as I can from the compromise BH. The Focus Thron would be an excellent choice of bike. You would also be potentially putting...

Well it looks as though the weather should prove to be nice and wet for tomorrows event, and looking at the video below from the 2012 event, it does get pretty muddy. :) Still time to book up for it if anyone else fancies it. The downside for me is that my knee pain has been getting...

You mean..... If you have to ask, then you haven't looked at the website properly.

I've already said my bit about BH so won't go over that again, but what I will say is that the most that I have ever had battery wise out of my NEO Xtrem with me doing much/most of the work is approx 35miles. On assist alone, I could kill it in less than 15miles. I've ridden a race, and will...

Thanks Martin. Tightening the bracket slightly over the tapered aspect of the tubing was what caused my first bracket to crack. I was honest enough to hold my hands up to that one, and not just try blag a new one. I have no idea how the panel has become cracked though. I guess that there are...

Dave it was reading about your crash incident that persuaded me not to go down the illegal route. I came very close to having a head on crash with a female cyclist on a cycle path, poor obs on her part, but had we collided and I had been on an illegal bike, things wouldn't had gone my way that's...

Thanks Martin. :D The Jumper does look a nice bike and is proving to be very popular in both America and Australia. Especially as it also has the larger 11ah battery and for the US market, a throttle. Now read my edit and see if you agree. ;) I just can't be bothered with the hassle of...

Thanks Martin, and I really do hope that from you have indicated that BH are pulling their socks up. I have been told elsewhere that they are, but I'm still very angry with BH, and it's going to take a lot to convince me that they are sorting themselves out, especially whilst I still continue to...

As a dealer, the back-up from BH has been equal to any of the other brands I deal with, although they are slower to respond, particularly in August when Spain goes on "Siesta". . I'd love to hear the excuses for the remaining 11 months of the year. The after market service falls way short of...

Come on lads you are slacking!!:D I took advantage of the break in the rain this evening when the sun finally came out, and put in a 16mile ride where perhaps I shouldn't have! ;) Annoyingly the first half of the ride was spoilt with error 13 constantly popping up. I had thought that it was...

Thanks Dave, I didn't realize that about it.:) Now just need the Haibike gone. :)

Hi Backin, A nice selection of bikes there. :) I realise that we have already discussed the merits of Haibike versus the Xtrem via pm, but when riding yesterday I was thinking further about how you had said that the Xtrem was a little lacking. I'm a fan of hard tail bikes, although it is very...

The best crank drive would be a silent one. Until that day though. :(

Why not just get up earlier and cut out the rush. :)

A rather pleasing photo. :)
