Compromise may be possible where a bike which fits the bill is available locally. But if the choice is restricted and you can’t get something similar to what you want then buy at a distance. Most local shops will have to send motors back with higher end ones anyway, and they may not have the...

I think they call it the generic one. It’s the original as far as I know. Very robust and stable and the image is not a vibration induced blur on most roads.

I have a Mirrycle mirror on my Agutta. So many good reviews can’t all be wrong. It has two inserts for different sized bars.

They are pretty good like that. No quibble refund if you send stuff back unused within a year to I think they say. I’ve sent parts back a month later when my plans changed and got my money back.

Yes, they can get a bit skittish though and you see their ears twitching. But I want the riders to know I’m there, so I call out, and I tell them which side I’m passing on as well.

I think they have to supply one with a bike but there is no obligation to have one fitted to a bike in use. I’ve found pedestrians often don’t register a bell, and a polite excuse me works better. Same for passing horses as they are often two abreast with the riders talking.

If as he says the nearside lane has road markings for a left turn and straight on, than that is the lane he should be in to go straight on. You can’t legislate for rank bad driving from other road users and can only try to anticipate it, and as flecc says use a mirror. I sometimes think back...

IPad Air bought in March with up to date software. Yes I do use Safari. Until I tried it yesterday for the first time in a week or so I could bring up new posts with it.

I got that message on my iPad when I used it to come here, but it was easy to get rid of. But another issue showed up since the forum upgrade. I can’t hover above forum on the forum list page to bring up the drop down menu and select recent posts with it. There seems no way to bring it up at...

A couple of years ago a neighbour out here in the deep country was an inveterate drunk driver. He was even caught pissed and swaying in a town car park late at night trying to start his 750 Honda when he was disqualified from driving. He was close to going down for a spell for that one. So when...

I had square tapered BBs on all my road bikes and never had any problems. As long as they’re checked and tightened up regularly they should be good enough for most bikes.

Have to deregulate it too. Because I believe the Boardman/Oxygen was, and the Volt wasn’t.

Yes, I think 50 Cycles is more sinned against than sinning. In this case at least. I suspect her strategy will work too, if it hasn’t already. Better to lose a little money than have this sort of publicity. Some prospective buyers on this site have said they are put off by it and others will be...

I don’t think what you’ve posted there is relevant to this at all. I doubt we will ever know all the facts because the OP will not tell us why she rejected the bike, and 50 Cycles has not posted its side here. They did post this against her youtube vid which Wander posted here a few days ago...

It is the nature of the contract which the OP claims exists which is in dispute. I’m sure the dealer would send her back the goods she contracted to buy tomorrow. But she doesn’t want the bike back.

Beatles or the Rolling Stones? Jaguar or BMW? Everyone will have their opinions, but they don’t have to ride it. You do. Try a few if you can and consider as said above what you want it for. BTW as regards the other thread. No dealer offers an unconditional money back guarantee. 50 Cycles...

That might be the only question you would ask, but to me it would seem to be irrelevant. The point is did the company ever offer an unconditional guarantee that they would give purchasers their money back for whatever reason, and without quibble? But in their terms and conditions they make clear...

The ASA is not a court of law. A small claims court judge works mainly on the principle of reasonableness when he makes a judgement. I don’t believe she is being reasonable, and I very much doubt a small claims court would think she was either.

Yes, trex that’s what I think. She is trying to make them give her a refund through bad publicity. The ‘misleading advertising’ is just an excuse IMO.

I’m a little confused here KM. If the above is so and you are a keen and fit cyclist why did you post this yesterday? I agree, it is best to test-ride a bike. I went to Loughborough to do just this. However, it is pretty flat around there, compared with the Shropshire Hills, where I live. The...
