    Bike security camera

    No gps chip that i know of.It could be said of all security camera's that they could be hacked i suppose. I think using a camera as only line of defence from thieves would be a mistake.In my case it isn't and i would not personally use this in doors showing my movements etc. But remember this...

    Comfortable saddle for a 97kg rider?

    After watching attached video above i followed onto next video about suitable saddle designs. Didn't realise that saddle with extra padding can be worse.

    Comfortable saddle for a 97kg rider?

    Must confess I only picked up my new Scott 700 tuned couple of weeks ago .Have done 3 rides so far and still in pain from saddle.Tried pitching the saddle down a bit which has helped as well as padded shorts.Seems a shame to be changing saddle at such early stage but recon a 20 mile plus ride...

I may well be...

    First bike dilemma

    Weekend is nearly here so getting closer to checking out some bikes.As I wrote previously the Scott E-Genius 700tuned definitely has my attention now.As yet I cannot find a bad review even though it will stretch the budget. Don’t suppose we have anyone on the forum who currently rides one.

    First bike dilemma

    I have never watched so many videos and read so many reviews trying to narrow my choice down.I thought I had it nailed down to 3 then I stumbled upon the Scott 700 tuned reviews.Slight downside is even though heavily discounted on the net,hard to lock down a large as all snapped up.
