No pics but today I've been mostly building Ridgeback bikes;

Cyclone and Electron electric bikes and Anteron and Tensor 'normal' bikes.

All done!, cusomer has a fancy front wheel on order with another whitewall tyre to match the back.

Hmmmmm....
Several sets of very expensive scales aren't working, I just checked the fuses and connections for any obvious prolems There' no way the suppliers have done this and I'd be amazed if any of the maintenance crew have, we don't normally touch them....so who's been fiddling ?

Sitting in a damp and dismal yard waiting for my trailer to be loaded..

What a lovely way to spend Saturday evening.

Worked on an Aprilia Mana 850 recently.

Very interesting design, uses a constant variable transmission coupled with a variable "variator" which is driven from a transmission control unit via a stepper motor.

[QUOTE 5065086, member: 9609"]its better than having to hand your keys in and then having to sit in a windowless room with some bloke weighing about 25 stone who need to tell you stories of when he was on special ops in the SAS[/QUOTE]
Been there.. got the T shirt! Wonderful way to be treated, eh?!

Securing 800 of these...

Suspected counterfeit Beats Solo 3 Headphones (with the slip case used to disguise them). Just got to get the company representing Beats to formally confirm it.
Approx £175,000 worth...

Been at work literally an hour and already covered in dust! The joys of unblocking the dust extraction system at the start of a shift!

Fitted a new thermal print head, already defective after 1 week...probable cause, hopefully, the red print roller which had some damage I hadn't noticed in the printing area. I say hopefully because if that's not the reason....what is ?
New roller fitted as well.
Time taken, about 20 minutes, no loss of production, completed during their tea breal.
£403 for the thermal head.
£267 for the roller. ..all plus VAT of course.

Funny place to weld rails. Well done not having an alcohol still next to it, which is where I saw it done
