That car driver mentality "Its a pushbike, i must pass it, no matter what" nevermind that they need to do 50mph in a 30mph zone to pass me and then slam on the anchors enough to get around the next bend where they can sit at the back of the queue of traffic lights while i sail past them straight...

It may not look it, but this is very very comfy. I have two of them. Check the reviews: Charge Spoon Saddle

Its so hilly here that i have to use my brakes a lot. However, if i lived 20 miles south i'd not use them half as much.

That's a nice idea, and i agree in principal, but what's the solution when a segregated cycle lane has to cross a number of side road that exit onto the main road it is segregated from? Usually a give way marking for the cyclist, which makes these paths painfully slow for utility use. There's...

The neoprene Respro anti pollution masks get really damp and hot, generally unpleasant to wear. I wore mine twice then put it away and never used it again. Possibly the worst £30 i ever spent. If however you want a face mask to keep the windchill down on sub-zero days then i'd highly...

And always remember, there are good days and bad days when cycle commuting. Dont let the bad days put you off because the good days are truly great! Take this morning, it was pouring down with rain, i cocooned myself in my Endura waterproof kit, hood over helmet and everything, then preceded...

Hopefully Wisper will quickly adopt the new 11 speed Alfine hub which has a much wider range (still not as wide as a Rohloff though), rather than wait until 2012 models to adopt the new hub.

Interesting 10mph. I wonder if that correlates directly with the higher power of Chinese eBikes? Of course you'd expect head injuries on a 30mph eBike to be similar to a 30mph scooter, which typically requires a helmet in most countries.

Where do you have your battery mounted now? Also, how would your current battery fit into the very specific Wisper frame mount? Another concern for me would be that while such a frame would lower the C of G, the sheers length would slow the steering and responsivements somewhat too, so its...

I know what you're saying about motorcycle brakes (My ZX12r is on its third set of front discs), but bicycle discs seem to last forever, i've been using them since 1998 and never worn out a disc rotor.

My Thunder Horn arrived yesterday, it really is quite loud, i have little doubt drivers will hear it. Its also a very distinctive sound, not like a car or truck horn at all. I had to use it on an iPod using pedestrian today too, seemed to work ok, they didnt jump out of their skin, but turned...

You're suggesting its something beyond road legal power, which is even more interesting :D
