Does anyone recognise this Brompton copy? I can't find a replacement suspension block.

Due to a badger attack, I now have this titanium plate in my wrist. Is it safe for me to work on ebike batteries or should I use thick rubber gloves? If so how thick should the gloves be to prevent electrocution, and does anyone have recommendations for type and brand? Can I use Marigolds...

The (female) driver of the car on the left didn't wait for the Police to turn up. Nobody was hurt. I've emailed the video to the driver of the car on the right, which contained her family. And that's my one good deed this century done :cool:

It has a maximum ISO of 12800, which is more suitable for night-time video and photography than the new Gopro 11, which has maximum ISO of 6400. I know it's only just been been released, but I would be very interested to see any night cycling footage recorded using the DJI Osmo Action 3 at ISO...

Has anyone tried titanium handlebars and if so, do they absorb much shock?

My wheels need truing. Has anyone tried this West Biking truing stand, or had good results using something in a similar price range? https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005003827472417.html I can't afford a P&K Lie https://www.pklie.de/truing_stand.html...

My rims might need replacing soon... the wear indication line is surrounded by deep rim brake erosion lines, and the rims are looking a bit concave. If I put cut up a spoke and hold two spoke sections against the concave areas at either side of the rim, and measure their combined thickness...

I wasn't expecting this at all. It could have ended badly for both of us. This fat nuttter on what looks like a stealth bomber (?) or something, suddenly rides at me from the other side of the road. He wasn't pedalling. There are clearer stills of this dangerous fat fool and whatever his...

This van driver made me feel rather threatened. After driving past less than two feet away from my wing mirror, he returned to shout "You f*cking! (something)" from the other side of the road. My camera completely failed to capture his number plate, so from now on I'm under-exposing all of my...

I had never carried my folding bike into Tescos before. Folded my bike into a trolley, wheeled it into the lift. As I exited the lift, a security guard nodded a greeting, I nodded back. After I walked my bike past he asked "Is it a bike?" He said the bike was ok but I had to remove my helmet...

The lollipop on the passing side works well for the most part, but this driver tonight overtook too close on a blind bend. My camera is rubbish at night. The car was moving too fast to get a clear recording of the number plate

I'm thinking of making very wide reflectors to keep cars from passing so close, because yet another Uber driver whizzed by too close to me last night. Does anyone know how wide is too wide for rear bike reflectors? How wide is illegal? I'm going to have to make them, because these lollipop...

So there I was...cycling home last night...minding my own business... when all of a sudden a dumb pedestrian wanders in from the left. If I hadn't beeped, he wouldn't have seen me AT ALL!!! Relied on his ears, didn't look! I suppose with the new Highway Code changes, I should have stopped if...

Just in case anyone else was interested in using this 20W 12V-80V 0.5A "1800LM" (alleged) light on their bike, here is a quite boring video demo of the high, low and terrifying flashing modes of this 1800LM (alleged brightness) bike light I got off ebay for £19.99. It can be bought on...

Broke my wrist in two places, plus dislocated it to such an extent that it was hanging on by a thread. In hospital since Thursday - plate fitted, but only after two very painful attempts to put the wrist back in place (under local anaesthetic) - but because the "Ball" joint had broken, it kept...

I'm looking for a power supply to test ebike parts with, variable voltage and up to 15A. Does anyone have any product recommendations?
