    Which lights and Pannier Bags do you recommend

    I've got these panniers as well. I reckon they offer excellent value for money given they are completely waterproof and hold loads. And you can just use one if you wish. Stay in place perfectly on my bike and take on and off in seconds. Bear in mind though you will need to get a clip on strap...

    Tow bar bike carriers

    Sure all the previously mentioned racks are great if you can afford them, and no doubt necessary if you need to carry two or three heavy bikes. I only need to carry one so I use the Thule 2 bike hang on tow hitch carrier using just one position. Carries up to 30kgs, you can lock the rack with a...

    Replacing a 'Cheapo Chinese special'

    Hi Flecc This is the most worrying comment I've noticed on the forum for ages. If a new battery is only two thirds efficient after it's been on a shelf for two years, how do we know how 'fresh' replacement or additional batteries we buy are? Is there any legislation or consumer protection in...

    Kudos Tornado, like new condition

    I think the high bidder got a bargain. I bid £551 in the last few seconds on the basis that it would have cost me at least £100 to travel from the West Country to collect. Would have bid higher if I lived locally.

    Cheap Breakdown Recovery for Pedelecs and Pushbikes.

    42 posts on this so far. Come on folks, get real -- it's £15 -- at worst a £15 gamble. To put things into context there are many threads on this forum questioning reliability of ebikes costing well over two thousand quid.

    Small Business Saturday....

    Sadly my experience of LBS's hasn't been this idyllic alternative to the internet. I took my back wheel to three separate relatively local bike shops over several weeks to resolve an issue of spokes breaking. All were pleasant enough. All were self opinionated enough to be confident of...

    Speed limit on high end e-bikes

    Agree totally. Surely the main reason for most folk getting a pedelec is to make those hills a lot easier. With my well balanced Cube Reaction Hybrid Race 29 CD I can travel as fast as I need to without any assistance - often well in excess of 25kmh downhill and on the level if conditions are...
