    I have a Ricoh GR Digital III (2009) that I'm not using much. I got it from Japan and it's in near mint condition. Wondering if there'd be any interest here before it goes on eBay?

    There was a SquidCross locked up outside Boulders in Chelt last night. Had fun trying to work out who in the gym it belonged too. There was a dude in a LBK Fix Shit or Cry Trying T too but I don't think it was him as he had a kid in tow.

    That's really helpful guys thanks. It's actually the same eBay store I've been looking at and wondering whether I should trust it. Problem solved!

    Thanks for the shout about batteries too. Have the same thoughts on fire hazards. Battery I can rely on is 💯 top of the list

    Anyone got any experience on bafang eBay purchases there are some low prices from established eBay sellers in Germany... But then there's doubt.

    Anyone got a recommendation for where they went?

    Thanks for the opinions all. I've felt torn for a while. I love the commute to work but 4 days in and I can feel the fatigue and having had to drive for a couple weeks I've been shocked how strong I was at the weekends. Going to give it a serious research now. 👍👍

    Yo hive mind.
    I love my bullitt. I ride it pretty much every commute. 10km loop. 50% road/50% forest track up to the yard. I have a couple valleys in the Cotswolds to climb up, I have my work dog up front for the B-roads. As some of the OS know I've got some health conditions. I'm considering a bafang mid drive so that I can take some of the fatigue out of the last few commutes of the week and to make the bike more usually generally.
    I've scrolled back and forth on the thread and noted some of the resources and what others have done. There's some really good stuff on here - as always!

    I'm wondering before I go ahead and buy whether there's anything anyone would advise/suggest I take into account, any good deals out there your already aware of, any considerations I should bare in mind - even if it's bait I'd be happy to hear them. Sometimes the most obvious things is what you overlook right.

    I'm considering a BBS02. Power for the hills but generally I can keep it on low and just use it when I need to. This feels fairly standard for a cargo. I toyed with a 250w choice but I've got concerns about resell and under powering when moving up hill with weight. Wondering if general opinion is similar.

    Cheers for any advice.

    The answer to this question might be sitting in this thread somewhere but I can't find it....

    Lights stoped working on my partners bike. Hadn't realised until this morning. Nothings changed with the wiring, although my first thought was to freshen the cable ends in case of any corrosion/shit built up at the hub. Hasn't helped. Both read and front are doing nothing, so it's not a bulb issue.

    Any recommendations for checking output from the hub? I scratched my head looking at the multi-meter but it'd need to touch both +&-. So yeah... I then had to get myself to work and have been half mulling it over today and thought I'd put it out there as someone else might be able to answer it quicker than my brain could work it out.

    Thanks in advance
