    Vehicles parked in front of the drive

    I am sure I have mentioned it before on here about people parking in front of my gates and dropped kerb. Tonight someone had left a Van in front blocking access,in the past I have gone knocking on doors etc but today I was peeved that it had happened yet again so I phoned the plod who sent a...

    Ultegra front shifter

    I recently purchased a new Giant Defy Advanced Pro 1 (2017). Its Shimano Ultegra with hydraulic discs. The front shifter is a 'triple', the front chainrings being a compact double. When changing down two clicks the front derailleur shifts to a position where a small third chainring would be...

    Fitting a front mudguard

    Decided to the mudguards back on the fixed. Where is the front yoke fixing at the brake bolt supposed to go? The from brake bolt goes into the frame under the top tube at the back so it can't go there. It doesn't look right up against the top tube so it's got to go between the two washers (...

    What attaches to this shopper front carrier frame?

    I recently bought a secondhand Raleigh Shopper for the sole purpose of nipping down to the shops. I rigged up a jury-rigged arrangement for carrying stuff on the rear rack but am wondering what basket is meant to attach to the little frame on the front? In the attached photo it's the lower frame...

    Front brake options (disc/ hub)

    I just damaged a perfectly good SP Dynohub* on my commute bike so thinking of replacing it with an alternative. Commute bike is fixed so just front brake, currently a V-brake. However it occurred to me I could get a disk dynohub (and new fork) and go disk brake on the front. Alternatively...

    Your Bike in front of a "Folly"

    Not sure if this is really a Folly, but far too grand to be "just" the [former] entrance to a farm: At Redlynch, 'twixt Bruton and Wincanton (Somerset) But this IS a Folly: King Alfred’s Tower is a 160ft (49m) high folly, designed by Henry Flitcroft for Henry Hoare II in 1772. It is...

    Your bike in front of a Youth Hostel

    Surely this must revive some happy memories? I stayed in many in the 1980s, most of which no longer exist. If I had my time again I would photograph my bike in front of every one of them, but this may be all I have: Pictures without a bike in shot are perfectly admissible of course. I'm sure...

    Front wheel shudder question?

    I'm looking for possible causes to my Genesis Equilibrium front wheel shuddering whilst braking. It's definitely a new thing but I was on a steep downhill section and I was trying to keep the speed under strict control as there was quite a few hidden patches of thick ice, so I was probably...

    New FD front mech required.

    I have now stripped off my defective front mech (https://www.cyclechat.net/threads/what-have-you-fettled-today.87079/page-407) It seems the receiver side of the clamp where the bolt screws into is stripped out, with all the threads being rotten and rusty. Having removed the mech it all appears...

    Which hub in new front wheel build?

    Going to get my LBS to build me a new front wheel either later today or mid week (depending on how long today's last minute xmas shopping takes). When I had a chat with the guy last week he recommended either going for a Shimano 105 or a Hope hub. From what I recall the Hope hub would add...

    Has anyone tried this? Is it unsafe, especially without running rear racks?

    Dahon front carrier system

    Recommendations or advice welcomed. As,too,experience. The retailer CHWhite has told me the Dahon Cargo system has not been imported to the UK because it appears 'not good enough'(un-engineered?). I was looking at this piece of equipment to carry stuff around abroad with a Carradice Camper...

    Another mudguard fitting thread: front band on ruins clearance

    On my Kaffenback 2 I tried to fit a LifeLine Narrow Road Mudguard Set from Wiggle. It described itself as "42mm (28-32mm tyres)". Here they are, <£16 and quite adjustable - every leg is independently fixable. Single legs at the front makes it quite easy to fit at the front at least. I have...

    Feet touching front wheel

    Its happened a few times on my road bike when coming up to a junction and starting to track stand. Nearly caught me out as I'm clipped in. Nothing I can do about it but does anyone elses feet touch their front wheel when turning. Also is their any chance of this happening when riding at speed.

    Bit Random - Front Light Positioning

    Evening all, I'd like a clutter free handlebar and am considering mounting my light on the front fork crown, with a detachable light ( maybe catseye volt 800) would I still achieve the same spread of light on unlit country lanes being lower down on the frame or should I stick with the handlebar...

    Chainset swap, do I need to touch the front mech?

    Saturday I plan to swap the SRAM chainset on the best bike for another SRAM one with carbon arms. Will be fitting it to the existing bottom bracket, which is a Hope with the usual Truvativ GPX adapters fitted. To my mind, with correct application of my trusty torque wrench the new chainset...

    Someone on the bus sat in front of me smelt of fags and chip oil

    Yesterday this was. He got on the bus then sat down in front of me. Then i got the wiff! Cigarettes and chips. It was only a 15 minute journey so although i can't hold my breath that long,i breathed through my mouth,covering it slightly with a piece of kitchen towel to keep any bacteria out...

    Front lights

    I struggled last year with several different lights, I tried a couple of Lezyne lights another brand from a friend, and I wasn't happy with any of them. Now, for a while I have been tempted by the Garmin Varia front light, and I believe it will connect with my Edge 520. They're coming down in...
