It doesn’t only happen with aeroplanes. The Moorgate tube crash which killed almost fifty people a couple of decades ago is believed to have been suicide. They brought in more robust systems to prevent a driver going into the buffers at full speed after that. But how many would be suicidal coach...

Modern derailleur systems are robust and keep their adjustment for the most part. But as in all things the price point matters. IMO the cut off for a good mech with Shimano is the Deore. Much below that they aren’t so good.

Don’t know if you mean me but I can’t amend posts. I’m glad you sold it and I hope you didn’t lose too much on it.

I usually ignore that sort of stuff and depend on the dealer warranty and my rights under English law. It used to be the case that sending off registration cards when you bought something had the effect of limiting your rights not enhancing them. That’s why they wanted you to do it.

Oh you’re so bold. Don’t worry the omi polones won’t hold it against you.

Didn’t the first JC say you should turn the other cheek?

Really the idea that the Beeb is politically biased to the left is risible. You mean well known lefties like Andrew Brillo Pad Neil? Or Red Nick Robinson the BBC political editor? The only one who seemed a bit left of centre in recent years was Newsnight’s Paul Mason and he’s gone to Channel Four.

I depends on the cycle paths. I agree about the crap ones in most cities, and never used the joke painted line ones in London. But it you have good wide segregated and dedicated cycle paths in MK like they have in other parts or Europe it makes sense to use them.

If you bought it from 50 cycles the warranty is with them and they do transfer it. If you did buy from them I’m not sure why you registered it with Germany.

You should do it immediately. You may already be too late.

Yes, it was worse than most imagined. You can’t have people beating employees up and having to be pulled off them and not fire them. It doesn’t matter who they are or how much money they bring in.

Maybe an e bike shop can help. There are diagnostic devices on eBay but you might need to have some idea. Perhaps someone more qualified here will tell you how to use one and link to it. But can’t the supplier fix it if you get it to him? Did you mean to recommend it? Seems like you’ve been...

Yes it is and they honour it too as long as the new owner has the invoice. You can refer a buyer to the section on their website where they state that it is.

Quite agree. But it’s the best place to start. Paypal will refund you if the seller has no proof that he delivered it. Assuming the money was sent as payment for goods and wan’t sent as a gift. I would have made a claim before this though.

Yes trex it’s sixty days. I put ninety initially then checked and changed it. But the original came back as things do sometimes with this site’s hosting.

Your bike shows up on the link but it doesn’t when you go to used bikes on the website. So no one can see it. There are always some optimistic prices there among the good deals but you should get that price if it’s visible..... I would mention that the full warranty is transferable since a...

Thanks oldtom. I used to buy parts from them by mail order up to the start of the millennium but I sold my last road bike then. So just idle curiosity really since a few of you still live and cycle round that way.

I think you have sixty days to claim a Paypal refund, though it might be longer for goods which fail to arrive. You should start a Paypal claim today as you have only a couple of days left. I would also forget about getting back to the company because they might just string you along until it is...

Have you got it advertised on the 50 cycles website in the used section? At the price and with the low use it might sell there more easily.

Does anybody know if Whiskers bikes at Goffs Oak is still in existence? I used to buy stuff there at good prices, and even when I moved away from North London I still bought there by mail order. But since everything went online I’ve never come across them and they seem to have never had an...
