Wanted travel agents to switch me drop bars on with v brakes.

Long pull Tektro RL520 may be an alternative

Is there a website where you can order custom bike decals? (It's from a small brand so there is not nothing available) I have an old roadbike with stickers that look like the standard Hardwear store letter stickers...

I’ve ran into a problem with a front track hub when trying to install the wheel onto my bike.

The 10mm bolt diameter of the BLB king hub is a bit too wide to fit into the fork drop outs, what’s the best course of action here? File the drop outs? Can the the 10mm bolts be swapped for 9mm bolts?

TLDR

Win 10, Android (Im not sure which, says A225BXXU5WB6)

Can you not just use longer bolts and nuts?

Under ‘APN management’ on the mifi app I get the choices below. It was on pay as you go as default, which was working but I thought quite slow. What do the options mean, and which one should I set it to for best internet? ( the internet still works with each of them selected)

You probably need to edit the APN or create your own

Gpsies used to have an option to evenly space gpx waypoints.

Is there another way to do this?
Thanks

If using waypoints then you are using a gpx route file is there any particular reason for that over using a gpx track file?

Failing that, is there much of a functional difference between budget Shimano SPDs and higher end stuff? Or are you just paying for reduced weight?

The latter

good working order, has been replaced as being of a certain age, not being used

I usually ride a 56 road bike

Its a shame it has a Nazi problem.

Remember BBC did a programme when England football captain Sol Campbell told fans not to go to Ukraine unless they wanted to return back in a coffin.

I see that this is your first post on LFGSS, maybe that says something!

Just need to source the correct rivnut? anything else I'm missing?

Use aluminium ones, stainless while they may seem a better option are much harder to set

ensure you buy open ended ones and not closed end.

drilling size is 7.1mm if needed

My wife's ebike battery has died, and I'm being quoted £300+ to recell it, whereas it's about £210 to buy the exact same one from AliExpress. Is that about usual, cost wise, to replace some 18650 batteries?

Does not seem unreasonable seeing how much spot welding and equipent is needed, not all 18650 batteries are equal.

Everything I really need is typing in an address and then follow a route

Garmin on device routing is the worst possible option and I would always pre load a gpx file for a route

I have used device such as the Etrex H, the HCX, Etrex 30 etc etc

they all work well enough but the routing can be a little /lot wayward.

Address finding using OSM and older devices is generally not a good option as hardly supported

Fits me as shown and I usually ride a 56 frame at 5ft 11"

8 Speed bar ends with front 50/34 double
Tyres are new and unused 700 x 23c

Looking for £150 or thereabouts

Any idea why there would be 3 extra wires between battery and controller? The rest all makes sense but i don't get what this does? Controller is a bafang CR S10D.350.SN but still cant find a wiring diagram to explain what these are.

the closest will be the M540 iirc

This is a 15 inch frame, was my daughters, but she never took to cycling.

Everything works as it should, the fat tyres make for a comfortable ride, but a little slow.

Looking for £45, 5 minutes from Hersham station

Lost a lot of the little rubber bits that cover the end of the thin metal struts.

Probably 3mm rubber caps

any leads on somewhere with a spark eroding machine? The places on google seem pretty industrial to walk in with a stem.

Will cost more than the bike to get it done, very much an industrial process

something like £150 min charge

Seems reasonable

or is there stuff that's cheaper/I'll have at home that would do as well?

Two part epoxy, the rapid stuff, as it is more flexible than the traditional stuff

get some from poundland for surprisingly £1

Does anybody know if there is a decent android app that will give you turn-by-turn directions from a GPX file?
