It's rim material. If it was pollution from traffic, then it would be all over the bike rather than just the rims, and concentrated around the brake pads,

You might have a suggestion as to how, with an injured back and no public transport (or a four hour three bus plus walk) I get to a hospital appointment. Typical edge-case argument. Most people are not injured/disabled, and it's really not that difficult to see how those who are could be accommodat...

If you google mini u lock, there are mini locks from abus etc. Bear in mind that a mini lock will restrict what you can lock the bike to. Also a u lock in your jersey pocket could give you a nasty injury if you fall off.

Sounds like what he needs is an off-road mobility scooter?

Surely you would have the option of tapping into the output from the battery, and connecting lights directly? As far as I can tell, the Axa HR is rated 6V 3W, same as a hub dyno, so you should be able to run any standard dyno set-up, e.g. B&M IQX, CYO premium etc

I think you'd be better off running lights off the battery. If there isn't provision for running the lights off the controller, then you should be able to run lights directly from the battery (B&M and others make DC versions of their lights), or possibly from a USB connection on the battery. htt...

Hi, I have the teasi one. IIRC it comes with maps for all of Europe, but you can download all maps for free. I removed all the maps except UK, as it was a bit slow to load all the maps at start up. I think the maps are OSM based. As a basic no frills device with a nice colour display I can't fault it.

Looks fine to me, but I'd have a good look at the more critical areas, like around the bottom bracket and fork crown. Also worth seeing if the seat post will move.

I think that's part of the function of phone-ins. There's a temptation to assume that most people are sensible and think like you. Listening to these programs is a reminder of how ill-informed, stupid and bigoted a lot of people are.
And no, I cba to phone in.

You can buy primer for aluminium/non-ferrous metals, to apply with brush (hammerite/rustoleum?) from somewhere like Halfords or B&Q. I wouldn't want to use a spray can for such a small/awkward job.

I don't think the issue here is food/nutrition, it's fitness. The OP rode for a couple of hours, and was tired out due to pushing too hard for their level of fitness. Eating more food won't help. I think the best advice would be to ignore your average speed and pace yourself, concentrate on building...

I think there's a tactic where they disable your lock, in the hope that you are forced to leave your bike unlocked. If you leave a lock in a public place, then there are people with nothing better to do than target it, I think you would be wise to buy a new lock.

36 in a 30 :roll: Why is this even being discussed :lol: Banned? 60 in a 30 yes a ban.36 in a 30?No. Obviously his Lawyer is useless :roll: I've been on 3 "Speed awareness" courses and they really are a waste of a day :roll: He wasn't going to be banned for 36 in a 30, he got three points...

Might be worth trying the 32t cassette with your SS mech, it may work ok with some adjustment of the b-screw. The model no. is usually stamped on the inside, so you have to look from the other side of the bike.

Herts police website states that no witness/no video camera footage equals no investigation and simply compiled for data purposes Well, without evidence/witnesses, how can there be a conviction, given that they would have to prove guilt beyond reasonable doubt? OTOH, if you don't investigate, there...
