    Black Ice...

    I have ice spiker tyres on now until probably end of feb early march....feel much safer on them. They are a pain most days when its above freezing becasue of the noise and extra rolling resistance, but id rather put up with that than end up in peices

    Oxygen S Cross MTB - First Major(?) Problem

    When leaving work today, the problem was still there....the only way to turn the bike on was either by unplugging and reconnecting the main wire, or connecting the battery. So, I pulled all the leads apart one by one gave them a quick wipe and reconnected them. The display came on this time...

    Oxygen S Cross MTB - First Major(?) Problem

    Did yours have similar issues Warwick..or was it just cutting out completely? I'll point out the condition of the battery terminals to them if the cleanup job doesnt work

    Oxygen S Cross MTB - First Major(?) Problem

    Its also strange because last week, we had no rain here, just sub-zero or close to zero temps. I parked the bike up in the utility room on Friday afternoon, and never took it out again until this morning....that was an indication of how dry it was last week as it wasn't baked in crud and I got...

    Oxygen S Cross MTB - First Major(?) Problem

    I don’t know if the battery setup is the same, but the female terminals on the battery look okay and evenly pushed into the holder...it’s sat here charging away.... Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Oxygen S Cross MTB - First Major(?) Problem

    Okay....i'll find some suitable grease to put on them. had email back from e-bikes...they think bad connection somewhere and to clean all contact points, and use a n electrical switch cleaner on the contact points. Ive got some sevisol somewhere, will clean up with that tonight.

    Oxygen S Cross MTB - First Major(?) Problem

    Thanks D8veh The battery contacts look fine, no rust or build up of any description. I tend to leave the battery on the bike most of the time once its charged up. Ill have to leave it off for now. It stored in the dry at home, and at work..but can get pretty wet while riding. Last week there was...

    Oxygen S Cross MTB - First Major(?) Problem

First big problem this morning when setting off for work. Im hoping its not major, but knowing my luck... Anyway, I pulled my bike out ready to load...

    Replacement parts

    I just watched this one: So looking at the B screw on my derailleur, it looks like its screwed out a long way judging by the blue thread lock....which would indicate the jockey wheel is too close to the cassette?

    Replacement parts

    Is it that much out? Could that be due to bad adjustment of anything, or is it just past its sell by date? Ive oredered the parts for delivery tomorrow, and watched a few vids on how to do it, so hopefully will be okay to do myself

    Replacement parts

    Thanks Nealh The noise sounds like the chain isnt sitting on the cassette properly, or clipping the adjacent sprocket even though its not jumping off. If i rotate the pedals backwards, the derailleur is pushing back with the chain movement, and dropping down the gears before jamming. Ive found...

    Replacement parts

    I reported in my ongoing Oxygen MTB thread that I think the rear derailleur is out of alignment with the rear cassette causing a massive grinding sound on the chain when in lower gear. The oxygen has a Shimano Acera rear derailleur so Im trying to find a replacement part to fit, but getting...

    Oxygen Scross MTB ongoing review

    Almost at 2500 miles, pretty much all commuting. Have to say, pretty much trouble free. I’ve not had to take the car instead of the bike due to bike problems,so all good. Had my first puncture in nearly 5000 miles. The slime did its job though. A few revolutions of the wheel, and it had self...
