    Ok, I fixed the lights and moved the main light to a less visible location I hope the new light isn't going to get stolen this time, otherwise I'll have to bolt it on the frame!

    How long will it stay intact?

    Still alive, no problems: I'm thinking to add the new 2 speed motors on it soon. Maybe get the disc model at 145mm and spread a bit the dropout? ps: it's located in central london. (zone 1)

    Zoom mechanical disc brake question

    purchased. Just pray it's going to work. I think I wasted like £100 with the zoom hydraulic disc brake with the replacement one and the few mineral oil kit I purchased. I was just plain wrong to buy this brake kit as there is no way to buy any part, no instruction, no warranty, no support.

    How long will it stay intact?

    It has been here since tuesday, so a lot of you is going to loose the bet :p The lock is flimsy on purpose. And the bike is not electric yet. I'm planning to leave it out 1 month before putting all the electric parts in the bike. No point to throw money away if it's going to be stolen/damaged

    I don't have a speedometer on my bike as it gets stolen when I leave anything slightly valuable on my bike. It was just a feeling it was a bit slower.

    ride feels much softer now. But it looks like top speed decreased slightly and consumption increased by 10-15% :/
