I just use a quadlock case, works great

Yes I was on blood thinners for four years after having stents installed, never stopped riding, in fact had to do exercise and found it too boring to walk long distances. Only downsides was you bruise easier and a simple scratch just bleeds, like a pedal scratch on the leg can look like a large...

Well you would write that as $8000 or 8000 dollars or eight thousand dollars

Well the way I figure it the saddle springs are very stiff, they don't flex very much at all, the Kinect seatpost on the other hand just floats along, my back certainly appreciates it.

I use the B67 saddle with the springs, I had it mounted on a spring seatpost pogostick style, did 6000km and broke a rail, the springs never seemed to move much as they are pretty stiff, the cheap seatpost was also stiff, so ordered a new rail assembly and a Kinect seatpost, The new seatpost...

I would like to build a cargo bike to carry larger things, but for the moment I use a Burley Travoy hitched to my bike, I like it because I can wheel it through the supermarket, and once home wheel it straight into the kitchen and unload it

Both bikes are in the front room, much more convenient as I don't have a garage, only carports and the workshop is way down the backyard, open the front door, wheel the bike out, close the door and cycle off.

Thanks for that, been waiting for them to make a mulitvoltage charger since they stopped selling the 240v version

I use both bell and horn, bell mostly for peds, but if they jogging along with q-tips/cotton buds in their ears then they don't hear anything except whatever they are listening to on their phones I think an air horn is the next upgrade

On my Juiced Ocean current I generally leave it on 2, use Sport mode when climbing a steep hill or I need to get through an intersection quickly, I still get about 65-70km easily out of the 48v 17aH battery The other bike has the bbshd, it has 9 levels of assist and I use 3 or 4, very rarely...

And why would I bother to glue a mount to my phone which will eventually fail rather than a protective case with the quadlock mount built in?

The quadlock I use is a solid case made for specific models of phones, I simply would not trust adhesive tape, heat and solvent will eventually cause it to fail

Yeah nah!, To get the back wheel of my Juiced Ocean current, up on the bike workstation, take the chain off, cut the motor tiewrap and unplug the motor, remove the rear derailleur, remove the left axle nut and remove the torque plate, loosen the right axle nut and remove the wheel, reverse...

I ride a Juiced ocean current with a500W geared hub, this is second bike I've had with a hub drive and torque sensor, the first one was a Bionx direct drive hub, I like torque sensors because they respond quickly to how you pedal, just coasting along the motor just gives light assist, suddenly...

Traveling at speed i think it doesn't take much to drive a nail through a tyre, as your bike passes over the nail the front tyre skips the nail up putting it a perfect position to drive it into the back tyre, that's what happened to mine, also marathon tyres, just had this thumping noise...

Yep, I use a shark battery on the other bike, it fits to a plastic holder mounted on the bottle cage bolts on the downtube, I even fitted an extra rivnut and bolt to hold it, being not particularly trusting of plastic I wrapped a long Velcro strap four times around the battery and downtube.

600 or 60amps?

I found over the years with different bikes that if the battery can move a bit then thats enough to cause arcing in the battery contacts, with the battery on my bike the amount of movement was very slight and because there is no suspension everything vibrates on the bike with every ripple in the...

I used a longer strap with a buckle end and wrapped it three times around the battery, it's very tight and holds the 17ah battery on my ocean current quite well, after cleaning the socket and pins of the connecter back in April haven't had any problems since.

And places like Australia simply ban gas/petrol engines on bicycles all together, someone caught riding one can be charged with driving an unregistered motor vehicle and not having insurance, and if they are unlicensed as well the fines can run into the thousands. We used to have legal limited...
