    Intuvia 100

    Hi Guys Anyone familiar with this unit which is on my wife's new Gazelle Grenoble? Simple question caused by my reluctance to break anything. She is unable to remove the unit (security) as it is pretty firmly mounted. I understood it was a twist and turn but that doesn't work. Any opinions would...

    Recovery service.

    Good morning folks. Hopefully some of you guys will remember us from the "moped" fiasco we had a while back and we are thankful for the support we received at the time from you all.

    Tyre pressures

    Been using Schwalbe Marathon Plus Tour 700 x35 on my Gazelle Ultimate having used them previously on my Volt Infinity. Now in total they are on 1400 miles but showing wear in the centre 12mm only, presumably due to my insistence on running at 65psi. I am tempted to lower the pressure to 40ish to...

    Shimano steps

Running fine in all level settings and electronic gears but when I put more that a little effort (slight incline) I get 3 beeps and a W012 error.

    Black.

    As I have only been cycling since my paper delivery rounds in 1959 perhaps some of you folk out there can enlighten me as to why there are an increasing amount of cyclists, both professional and leisure wearing black! I am mindful of my 30 Class One professional years and the ability to see over...

    Crank lateral play

    I have had an increasing audible "chattering" develop from the central motor on my Volt Infinity. There is also approx 3mm lateral play in the crank when I checked today. Anyone know if this is normal as I never felt the need to check lateral play before. Thanks Ted.

    Bar graph??

    Can someone explain the significance of the bar graph on each member's profile? It is green, grey and red. I have also seen an icon on mine referring to "offensive language" which is confusing as in that post I never said anything offensive. Thanks Ted

    Hi from Northern Ireland

    Because of aged bones we have got back on two wheels again with two Volt ebikes. Well pleased but annoyed with the proposals here regarding legality.
