    Puch Touring light roadster - 3 speed rat bike.

    This, and another similarly distressed looking Halfords own brand, came my way recently. It's a 22" frame Austrian-built Puch Touring that dates from around 1973/74 and has been laid up out of use for over 40 years. Just a cheap, everyday utility machine originally aimed at low-budget...

    Rear Dynamo Light Mod Ideas

    Currently my Audax bike has the below rear dynamo light bolted to the rear rack. I am thinking of taking the rack off as I only use it with panniers on an occasional basis. There is an almost identical light which is specifically to mount to mudguards but at £65 I would have to sell this light...

    What rear light was this?

    Yesterday while out walking, a cyclist passed me and I was impressed with how noticeable his rear light was. It had a flashing pattern of 3 regular flashes of a line of LED's then a short gap, followed by another 3 flashes but the final flash of the second set of flashes was about twice the...

    A serious (although light hearted) question re adverts asking for your money.

    A group of us were talking about the vast number of 'adverts'............particularly on sky TV........asking for us to set up direct debits for such things as Donkey charities, kids in Africa with sight problems, kids in ? with nowhere to sleep etc etc. Now I realise that there really are a lot...

    Recommend a light cheap secondary D lock

    Can someone recomend one of the above. I am looking for a light lock which can be used as a secondary lock for locking my front wheel to a solid object or at least to the bike - in cafe stops where I can see the bike it may also be used as an easily accessible primary lock. The bike will be...

    My Rear Light Bar On My KMX X Class

    My rear light bar i made on my KMX Trike. I found a piece of aluminium tube and cut it to length and then helically wound some Kalfords reflective tape around and along the length. I then used some self amalgamating tape (i swear by this and being a licenced radio ham i use this a lot) which i...

    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...

    Light Weight 35C Inner Tubes

    I've recently replaced my 35C Schwalbe Centuries with Vittoria Hypers also 35C. The weight loss is really noticeable. I would now love to lose some more weight. My present inner tubes weigh around 170g, I can't find any light weight tubes of this size. Could I get away with 28s?

    Light chain noise

    Warning: what follows is terminally dull... So I've seen people mention on various threads on here about how they like to have their bike running perfectly, so that only the sound of tyre on tarmac can be heard on a ride. I'm of the same mind myself. However, while this is perfectly possible...

    'Be seen' rechargeable front light with decent runtime

    Having been let down by not one but two dead Lezyne lights while cycling home last night - although they were charged when they went in the bag a week ago, one lasted about 10 minutes, the other wouldn't produce any light, I'm probably in the market for a new front light. Needs to be USB...

    Lezyne 450xl light any good?

    Hi to all. I was just wondering if anybody has got one of these front lights and what you think of them. As the darker nights are now drawing in and the fact that my rides are usually down dark unlit country lanes would this light be up to the job of lighting the way. Many thanks for any...

    Moving dynamo rear light on an L type to an R-type.....

    Thanks to @simon.r of this parish I now have a Brompton Rack and guard set to fit to my S12L. It all looks pretty straight forward, but just want to ask about moving the rear dynamo light. At a glance it looks like if I unclip (zip ties) the cable from the rear triangle, I should then be able...

    I am about to take delivery of my new stead and want to use it after dark.

    New light set required

    Had the ones below for years now and cannot put them on my new bike (Ribble CX5), so looking for some more (better) ones. Any recommendations? Wouldn't mind USB rechargeable and would prefer some very bright ones and would last for a few hours.
