+ 1, far better than the saddle that came with the Carrera. Saddles are such an individual thing, but at that price it's wirth a punt.

Is it the same battery?

Any van the size of a transit will take both bikes upright without removing wheels. I used to get a Carrera and a Big Bear in my working Transit that had racking down one side. Load space is a tad under 8ft long, so bikes overlap each other. Head room not a problem.

Years of mistakes :eek::cool:;)

My Ezee battery is getting a bit long in the tooth and a bit saggy on the welsh hills. I have an insat battery built for another bike. So I made a splitter lead and carry the insat battery in a pannier. Sag, what sag? The other advantage, as already said, is that the current draw is taken...

What I meant is that it should be compulsory for lights to be fitted when supplier sells the bike. Whether the rider uses them or not is a judgement call. As far as I understand it, bicycles should have lights from dusk to dawn. Whereas for cars it's sunset to sunrise, slightly different.

I've always thought it bonkers that a bike has to be sold with a bell but not lights.

Have you thought of a tapole trike? http://www.laidbackcycles.com/recumbent-types-tadpole-delta-trikes/

Don't forget that, as well as being business men, the management are human beings. Turn the emotional screw, remind them that you too are human, not just a figure in the balance sheet. 'What about my family/mortgage' etc. Don't shout, but don't make it easy for them. All the time actively...

NEWS FLASH D8veh seen using mechanical rim brakes :eek: Seriously, another tidy job though, I assume the contoller's in the bottle?

There was generally less music around, not in shops or fired at you from every lift and waiting room. So music was more valuable, not just more noise. Also folk used to whistle popular tunes of the day. Have you ever tried to whistle a rap song or what today is, wrongly, called R&B?:eek: I...

'Cos this is the kind of training that has these guys going out into the world using their theoretical B.S. to create havoc for us all in an ever increasing bureaucratic miasma of statistical hogwash. I also didn't get past question 1.o_O

Go full Clarkson ! Spin the wheels and to hell with tyre wear:eek::D

Nothing like being obvious is there? In the Gurnsey thread I think Flecc said the police tend not to throw the book at people, I think this might proof the exception.

I like the spoke catchers dangling below the saddle bag - bet they're fun at speed.

It's an island - where's he gonna run too?

Ignore the 250W rating of motors. This is merely a continuous rating that means the motor will not heat if fed that amperage continually. The actual max power is the max rating of the controller. From my experiance it's hard to heat a hub up. Keep at 8mph or above when climbing and there...

Hi Crash, Conversion will certainly get you out in hills, it's exactly why I did it. I would consider a hub drive for commuting (either front or rear) because they are pretty bombproof, wear the drive train less, and have a more just let it do it's thaing style of usage. All you have to do is...

Oooo, snarky:p
