Now that's just showing off lol.

They're fairly wide too. Even though my piccy doesn't show the extension, I reckon it adds about another 4 inches to the rear of the front mudguard. I did try some mudguards from Crud, but in reality they turned out to be a bit rubbish.

I'm using a set of Beavertails at the moment, which keeps the worst off me. http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/sks-beavertail-mudguard-set/rp-prod25804?gs=1&gclid=CMbT8YOx1NECFYIK0wod-00ImA&gclsrc=aw.ds I also have the official SKS extension on the front mudguard, to further keep the crud off...

Definitely nope. Firstly, a dynamo won't provide enough voltage and amperage to charge the battery sufficiently. Secondly, even if you hooked up a system to carry out the task, you would end up using more energy to create enough energy to charge the battery. I've read so many threads, mainly on...

If I had the choice, I would certainly go for RockShox above Suntour, but whether it's worth paying well above retail price is debatable.

I've thought about doing this myself, but after weighing up what's needed to achieve the goal, I decided it wasn't worth it. I'm sure someone has successfully done it though ;)

It costs peanuts to charge a battery from the mains. It would take a while to recoup the cost of the solar panels, from a monetary point of view.

That's not strictly true though is it!

Yep, there are plenty of bikes out there that are far better than the X24 and reasonably priced too.

The more expensive bike has better specification on quite a few components, so it really depends how hardcore you are. The cheaper bike will definitely be sufficient for your current commute.

I just use the wireless charging function on the 2013 model, so no need to use the USB, unless I'm transferring data.

Nice informative post. My main tablet is the same as yours, upgraded from the 2012 model, which had become infuriatingly slow. This one will probably go the same way at some stage, as updates get rolled out. I'll be sad to move on though, as decent 7" tablets seem to be on the decline :(

To be honest, the reviews I've read about this bike haven't been favourable from a reliability point of view. Battery, controller, power failures, spokes, to name but a few. You've ruled out the battery so far, so maybe a duff controller!

How sure are you that the bike doesn't have a brake cut-off switch? Is there an extra cable exiting either of the brake lever units?

Mmmmmmm, was that a shill working for PreciAlps perchance :rolleyes: I've never had a problem negotiating any terrain using a custom 42T chainring, so why on earth you'd want to ruin a good chainline with adapters and chainrings is beyond me o_O

I'm not familiar with the Powabyke X24, but if it's like the one in the picture, I would check any connectors to the controller for damage/security/cleanliness. Also, it looks like you have a quick disconnect link going to the front wheel, check that also. Someone mentioned in a post long ago...

Good. If the battery is removable, then clean all the electrical contacts on the battery and bike docking station, with some contact cleaner or isopropyl alcohol.

Evidence for a nice juicy claim. Glad you weren't horribly injured, I cringed at the point of impact!

What's that saying, if it looks too good to be true :rolleyes: I think we're at a point in time, where electric bikes haven't been so good. Battery technology is far advanced from the days of SLA, and crank drives make for a well balanced and torquey bike.
