    Bike Forks?

    Rather common uncut length, he also has 45mm of spacers so 250mm and a riser stem/bars and he is back in the same position. The talk of "just £90 more" is a little crazy, my £18 forks will do.

    Cree light battery/battery mod/questions

    Finally arrived, very bright but the "zoom" is kinda rubbish tbh, fiddly and then once it's zoomed it doesn't seem loads brighter just a small square instead.

    Weird Bus Lane Rules

    So having had a near miss recently while I was in a bus lane I decided to double check the bus lane rules, for myself the rules are simple and I'm allowed to cycle in the bus lanes whenever. For cars it's mostly timed and they can pull in if a police car wants to pass or something, the full...
