Simple simple simple, and foolproof too, but you must do it regularly and frequently. Indeed, but much more polluting than water with a drop of washing up liquid, which is what you'd use with an ultrasonic cleaner. Have you read the safety sheet that tells you what SF degreaser is made up of? :shock:

You may say that it would cause the chain to go rusty, but if you place a sheet of aluminium foil it would be the foil that would be oxidised so the chain would clean of grease/oil so would easy to wash much of but would free of rust. You then wash in the hot soapy wash and then risen Allowed to dr...

I don't recall ever wearing down a tyre tread, even in my commuting days. Either the number of 'p's became too frequent or the sidewalls started to craze and I lost confidence in them. I am only 10st, though, and my brake usage is minimal. I can normally anticipate the need to slow down thereby avoi...

If I had to live my life over again, and knowing what I know now, I wouldn't have bought the damned thing! :D I felt the same about my "mini Forth Bridge", an AM7. I hated the soft front suspension when climbing out of the saddle and it was a real struggle to get a stem long enough and a ...

Yes, I knew that, now that I think about it; you've posted photos before.

To MickF: My Moulton has the rear brake cable on the right. The original GB sidepull brakes had the cable entry/clamp on that side.

Good luck.

you can do what you want to a Deore hub (and it isn't difficult to cut the axle down BTW) but IMHO you have missed the point; 135mm is used for MTBs because 'road' hubs at 130mm build into wheels with more dish that are not really strong enough for the task in hand +1 even if you are prepared to pu...

Looks amazing value but check if CR can fit full mudguards if you’re going to commute in all weathers and want to avoid a wet bottom, mudstripe up your back and grit blasted chainset!

Can someone please correct the spelling in the title of this thread

Those Shimano UNxx BBs can be used with a spacer can't they? Use the 73 x 122 + a spacer on the drive side. A Sturmey-Archer AW hub cog washer or two will do the job usually.

SA use a lot of letters in their part numbers!

Cheers. Got lots of them from old salvaged hubs.

HSA147 Google search brings up an SA axle key!!

What’s occurring, Brucey?
