    Lockdown Positive Diversions (C19)

    The latest Singletrack magazine is out today on PocketMags. The Singletrack people aren’t a big publisher setup and are just regular riders like us (I usually bump into them at the local bakery in Todmorden). During these difficult times if you can afford to support anything that is the...

    They’re actually owned by different owners. And you can’t always look to the same owners for political alignment, look at the difference between the Mirror and the Express as they are owned by the same owners.

    Covid 19 worries !

    The questioning is precisely my point. That is how to filter good journalism from bad. You say, by inference, you can’t do that. Same, or actually much more, for the motivation of politicians. What commercial links or personal companies/concerns do they have that means they are not serving the...

    Honestly, can some of you really not filter out good and bad journalists and good or bad sources of information? (Ie. Journalism) I’m astounded! ?

    Covid 19 worries !

    Oh, I could post the actually Guardian link of the same information as that’s where I saw it first. There are others on this forum that then have a hissy fit. Let’s be clear, there’s a toilet paper shortage? Not as long as the Mail exists! ;)

    Advice on Hope crank set for a Focus Sam 2

    The current situation will likely delay things further. I expect something for the Levo/Creo SL will come along soon enough too.

    New levo motor 2.2

    I’d be willing to bet we won’t see one in a Specialized. I expect to see a derivative of what’s in the Levo SL/Creo next.

    Article Next Generation: Forestal Siryon

    That makes some sense. I’d actually taken an educated guess that this was backed by the Saudis given their love of technology and electric car companies like Tesla. Mind you both the Russians and Saudis need to transition from fossil fuels in a relatively short period of time (20 years).

    Would you ride it? Turbo Creo SL with all new motor

    Thanks. I can imagine in the road context the 4kg penalty for the motor (2kg) + internal battery (2kg) is pretty significant like you say. You could run it with just a range extender and no internal to save a kilo. I was on my turbo trainer this morning as I’m well and truly locked in here so...

    Would you ride it? Turbo Creo SL with all new motor

    Worth having a look at this thread as this was discussed at length recently: The end for ebike tuning? - EMTB Forums There are some good reasons why the limits were set in terms of getting our bikes accepted as bikes and not being motor vehicles requiring registration, road tax, banning from...
