Of course, if he’s wearing a disguise in the picture, he will be even harder to spot :D .

Honda FCX Clarity - Hydrogen Fuel Cell Vehicle - Official Web Site Hope we will be able to get various size cells - needs to be able to fit in my original SLA case :) .

It may be just me, but these days I seem to have an unhealthy interest in all things “battery”. Back-along electric cars were making the news (LiFePO4 batteries) but that seems to have fizzled out to be replaced with reports of cheap small cars coming from India (going backwards as far as...

Needs clarifying, as Alien Online shop only lists controllers for "brushless motors" (checked today 16 Mar 09 - in case someone changes it). Online Shop So future spares may become a problem :eek: .

You get the same effect on our roads here. Cornish roads are narrow and most don't have slips along the side so there's nowhere for cyclists to pull in to allow vehicles to pass easily. Because theres no slips drain covers are in the road along the edge so cyclist are forced further out into the...

If I thought it would do any good I would. :) .

I've always said that ALL drivers should be made to drive a motorcycle for 12 months before being allowed to drive any other vehicle on the road. I would not advocate restricting the bike either as "sensible use of power" on the roads is the backbone of safe driving. This would help straighten...

:D This trip was supposed to be a "get back in the saddle trip" but it did end up an 'endurance test' as you say for both the bike and me. I can't anchor on the left hand brake hard, which is why I thought a nice flat "off road" section would be ok .... I managed to dodge the horses on the...

I fitted the LiFePo4 battery when the bike was only 8 months old as I could only get 8 miles with it over my hilly terrain. It was a special narrow Ping 10ah battery - its wrapped in bubble wrap inside the original SLA case. By the way, next month is the batteries first birthday, have to get...

Eddieo posted: …. The problem with this post is I haven't a clue what bike this info relates to. On the motorhome forums I use, your signature includes what van you have, it makes things so much easier …. Sorry about that eddieo, so keen to post about my travels forgot to add any details. I...

Living in hilly Cornwall has meant my best road distance has been around 18 miles. This is usually full throttle most of the time. I've spent the last few weeks recovering from my carpal tunnel operation and I'm suffering badly from cabin fever. So today, as my hand seemed ok, I decided to go...

We have seen recently the US and China bedding down together for political reasons but they are also squabbling and falling out over each other’s antics in the South China Sea. Top US, China diplomats work to smooth relations Wars now tend to be small-scale skirmishes with technical...

It sounded to me like a dead/dieing battery but I thought I would let those in the "know" say it first. The web site below has lots of information on batteries. Unfortunately, it won't help you on this occasion but I've found it a very useful reference resource in the past, saves having to keep...

torrent99 posted: .... Probably not kids where Mussels parks (the City). Most likely they were after any parts they could get to sell for a few quid .... See, this is what happens when one lives in a rural location - just lose touch with reality :rolleyes: .

Mussels posted: .... Someone must have brought a toolbag with them today as they had used hex keys and a spanner to try and remove my brake caliper, I found the nut nearby but they must have chucked two bolts further afield. They had also tried the same with the bike in front and despite...

Patrick posted: .... from tomorrow I'll be an e-bike commuter .... Good luck with the ebike. Incidentally, the wife and I saw one of these the other day parked outside the local bike shop. First electric bike I have seen for about 12 months - rare around here. They are nice looking...

Nice find. I searched for ages and eventually gave up trying to find a rack to take the weight of my electric bike. I liked the last bit: The loading aid will retail at £30. :( Wow, that's a lot of money for a bit of channel :eek: That "wallet busting" channel looks a bit flimsy to me...

My feeble efforts pail in insignificants in the shadow of the Pedelec Guru Lesson learnt :o .

Definition from Wiggle site :) Bottom Brackets: Bicycle bottom brackets connect the cranks to the bike and allow the crank arms to rotate. There are various sizes of bottom bracket shell on the market, so compatibility needs to be checked. The three most common frame bottom bracket shell...

The area where I live is a mecca holiday area, so one would expect the roads to be a good standard. Well they are, if you keep on the main spine A and duel roads. Get onto the single B roads and you'll have a rude awakening. Get onto the unclassified roads and you'll think you’re off roading...
