Good point. How do you get started with Geocaching? Where do you find a list of grid references / clues or whatever to locate these items, whatever they may be?

Or sometimes the law is not applied in the spirit that it was originally intended. Although offences or methods of investigation technically fit within the law, sometimes they way in which they are applied are a mutation of the original purpose of that law. Council and Police Chiefs (Thick...

I wasn't aware that things had gone that far. It seems a bit extreme. Anyway, I would take my chance in court on that one and certainly wouldn't have admitted to an offence, whatever that may be in this case, in order to receive a caution.

I must have missed this thread when it was posted 2 1/2 years ago. We won't get into a game of qualification top trumps, I'll take your word for it.

Exactly. I can't think of any offences that have been committed here.

I wonder what offence he received the caution for.

I suppose that the thing to do is swap the batteries between the two bikes, if that is possible. Sorry if I am stating the obvious.

They are frightening individuals who speak eloquently and with great confidence on subjects for which they have absolutely no knowledge whatsoever. There are a lot of them around, watch out for them, they are not always easy to spot.

I like the comments below the article. Someone who signs himself, MarkTaunton is suggesting that if there is a mass take up of electric bikes, it would necessitate the building of a nuclear power station adjacent to every major city for the sole purpose of providing energy to charge the bikes...

Movement in the chain wheel is normal, it is supposed to do that. As for the clunk, check the motor mounting bolts are tight, check for play in the pedal cranks and also the pedals themselves.

I have taken some measurements from my, "working" set up. These measurements relate to a 2008 motor fitted to an 8 speed Alfine hub gear setup. This configuration has worked for 9000 miles and is still smooth and virtually silent. Motor sprocket: 9 tooth, 2.19 mm width, with an 8 mm tooth...

Thanks for posting the videos NRG, it makes it much easier to visualise the problem. As you have already commented, it would appear that the chain is not releasing off the motor sprocket properly and is being carried beyond the point where it should release and pass smoothly onto the guide...

From what you have said, I think your bike has hub gears. The derailleur you mention is a chain tensioning arm. (discounting the arm, how many sprockets do you have at the rear wheel? One would indicate hub gears, a stack of different sizes would indicate derailleur) If you do have hub gears...

Sorry to hear that you are still having problems. The, Pro Connect Feels Rough thread, on which people are reporting similar problems, seems to have gone quiet with no real conclusions. From what I have read, I would be tempted to shorten the chain as it would appear that additional chain...

Which is not worth the effort. Remember, the £50 saving is on the full recommended retail price of the bike. If you turned up at a bike shop with the cash ready to do a deal, or research the model that you are interested in on the internet, you will easily save more than £50. The (revised...

Are you being asked to pay the hire fee for a further three years, or have you been told that you can't dispose of the bike for three years?

I'm not 100% clear about what you are saying, but when I purchased my bike, the retailer passed the cost of the Cycle Scheme commission on to me by charging 10% above their advertised price. It was still a worthwhile saving, but since then the rules have been,"clarified" / changed with regard to...

I have been reading this thread with interest. As I have mentioned before, I have had no hint of this problem on my 2008 Pro Connect and it seem strange that Panasonic would take a retrograde step with the chain guide. Especially when the Panasonic unit as a whole is such a well thought out and...

Lidl will be selling these Workshop stands again on Thursday 28th July priced £29.99. Members who purchased them last time they were on offer seemed to be impressed by the quality. I lost out to the eBay rats.

Those were the days, Juniors, Seniors and Gurus. Life was simple back then, everyone knew their place.
