    Cycle Lanes

    So there are other ebikers in B&H ! I've seen two in the last 2 years and I'm always on the lookout We really do have some odd ones. They have just made lots of the north laines area streets two way for bikes (they have been one way for cars for many many years) But the signposting of this is...

    Commuter Light Deal

    True enough tillson but they are not nice looking IMHO , plus I've got enough wires already ! These smarts are fine for city commuting I think. They cause every sign and number plate for 200m to flash ! Finally I'm think more lights placed in different places, different angles is safer than...

    for me the aforementioned Brooks covers both bases - very comfy (and just gets more so) and looks the biz Especially if coupled with a suspension post - mine is only a cheap post but between the two I never even think about my posterior.And thats thesign of a great setup in my book

    Recommendations for a bike alarm?

    Opportunist thieves wouldn't know about this technology but I guess professional e-bike thieves would eventually learn about it and know how to scan a bike to detect and remove it? Unless the technology was fitted in a manner that it couldn't be removed, like right inside the frame tube..but...
