At £300 my guess is it will be a very niche market. Swedish firm launches 'invisible' cycle helmet - The Local

Does anyone know where you can get the connectors in as a mixed bag of colours rather than ten at a time ? I need to replace the motor connection on the forks and would welcome feedback or alternative suggestions that are not too big.

I've tried looking on Google maps with no luck yet ! Any suggestions as to where the higher power bikes can be used ? (Will now duck in case there is flack flying around).

Given that the weather is getting better now (apart from the frosts which will no doubt kill off the early plants) does anyone know of a supplier of cycling shorts or trousers that are not made of lycra ? Anything that is advertised as for cycling seems to be skin tight, now although I am a...

Monday night I treated my bike to a new drive chain (18 speed front hub drive) but now the chain "jumps" on the sprockets. Have tried taking out a couple of links to increase the tension but it still jumps, would not be so bad but the electrics are off at the moment so had to use the car. Any...

My Sunlova kit has been working fine for the lastfive months but about a mile from home last night something has gone wrong and I was wondering if anyone has any ideas. I was riding along with the throttle power on and everything cut out including no lights on the throttle display. Tried the...

My bike had a dynamo and 6v lights fitted front and rear, I had converted this to run from a battery pack for a model car/boat (7.2v NiMh 3000mAh sub-C cells), it gave a suitable amount of light for what I needed pre-electric. The pack has died and now I have a fast charger suitable for "race"...

I am considering a conversion kit with a "36V 9Ah LITHIUM battery with Panasonic Cells" for powering a 250w rear wheel drive motor. Knowing very little about Lithium batteries the capacity looks pretty small, considering my commute is 7 miles each way and fairly flat am I worrying over nothing ?

Just spotted this on FleaBay and wondered where the catch was (apart from it not turning up). Any comments ? 36v 250w Electric Scooter conversion Kit Retrofit Ebike on eBay (end time 14-Jun-10 05:37:01 BST) Would probably source the battery elsewhere.

Went into the bike shop in Walton on Thames, poor sales chap had a difficult customer last Saturday : I asked "How much is the electric bike ?" He comes over with the brochure "£1,600" "Is that 24v or 36v ?" I asked. "It says 250 w in the brocure". "Whats the barrey capacity ?" "Errr it...

OK, so there are legal bike kits for sale and those for off road use only. Does anyone know the possible penalties for using an off road only bike on the road ? I know the chances are fairly small for : a) getting pulled over b) the police actually knowing the difference c) bothering to...
