    Garmin extended front mount lights

    Hi all, I'm using a Garmin extended mount with a UT800 slung underneath. Now I like having a backup light on longer rides in the winter months, maybe a tad OTT but I have had a light fail on me before and a long walk home so like carrying a spare on longer rides. I love the way the Garmin...

    Headset Adjustment

    Hi All, Does anyone know if you can adjust the headset on a Boardman Team Hybrid 2016 or is it fixed? I presume I need spacers if you can? Cheers

    I have these on my Marin hybrid from around 2002 (give or take a couple of years) They work fine but have started to have a very slight squeek.

    A challenge, which will get harder if and when the thread progresses. No gates, churches, railings, water, bridges (or from any other themed threads - I'll admit I'm a prime culprit, and enjoy looking for such regular back-drops). Looking for novelties here. The sillier and more unusual the...

    Front Bike Camera advice

    Just picked up the Cycliq fly6 rear camera, and now looking for a front camera. Aim is twofold - #1: Record and report the lunatics that regularly try to kill me #2: Occassional cycling videos - some of fun parts of the ride, some of lunatics that are trying to kill me! So of course, clarity...

    How to avoid front tyre wear

    This guy found the solution. What a legend... This climb is one of Melbourne's most popular cycling climbs, and only 15km from where I live. I've ridden up it about 50 times, I think (but always with both wheels on the ground).

    Front mudguard for MTB, no fork bridge

    I've just replaced the siezed forks on my commuter MTB with some Exotic rigid forks which don't have a bridge, so nowhere to attach my front mudguard. I could bodge something up with cable ties, jubilee clips etc but it will take time (that I don't have atm) to make something rigid enough to...

    Cannot adjust triple front mech to work properly after renewing chain.

    The gory details: Chain gauge tool suggests new chain, but not enough wear for a new cassette. Front mech is a triple with an eight speed cassette. The LBS did not have a 8-speed chain in stock, but said a 9-speed would still work. (It turned out I had a new 8-speed in my 'stock', and I cannot...
