Ha! There were some deep lesions but worst of it was 1 severed tendon & several severed nerves. Interestingly I discovered,if you go to a walk-in centre with a towel wrapped around your hand with blood dripping from it, you get through triage immediately!

anyone on here use a PowUnity tracker? It seems it's the small battery in mine that has stopped working so the alarm only works if the bike is switched on! PowUnity say they're going to send me a replacement. Don't know how long it'll take or how much it'll cost

could be worse... On 1st Dec last year (date is etched into my memory) I nearly cut all the fingers off my right hand with a table saw. Three months later I could work & ride again

yeah that was all ok. Such a long time since I'd had the wheel out & I stupidly took the retaining nut off that holds the cable attachment piece - tried several positions but nothing worked. However Flying Dutchman Bikes sorted it out ;-D

Enviolo/UA issue:
can anyone on here imagine what I've done wrong please? Put back wheel back in after a puncture & now the gears won't shift. Work (stiffly) when the axle nuts are loose & can't get into highest gear ratios. I've replaced the cables just now too but didn't help

ah, these are Pick-up tyres. Tread looks pretty good still but thinking about it they must have done about 7k miles!

anyone else had this fail?
Working in a road with no drop kerbs, so at the end of the day I bounced the fully loaded UA down onto the road a bit too quickly and ....... pop!
Thought I'd given the back tyre a flat but turned out the tyre popped off of the rim. So easy fix!

Ha, yes!

well life would still go on without a frame lock but it is useful. I only rely on the frame lock if I'm nipping into a shop & can keep my eye on the bike and having bent a spoke or two forgetting about it, I have trained myself into the habit of spinning the pedals while it's still on the stand. Anyway, it's looking increasingly like i'll have to carry a third key :(

Thought you'd found the answer. Unfortunately t I need the older key type, "T82 Asymmetric" apparently & they don't have them in stock :-(

Nope, the issue is inside the lock barrel. With the key it only moves the catch half the distance as pushing it manually.

Yeah but I'd rather not have yet another key!

I've messaged a couple of dealers to ask if they can order a replacement battery lock to fit the key (with the key-code), apparently this is possible - in the US at least

UA issue:
Battery lock is stuck, turning the key doesn't move the catch far enough (wear I presume) to remove the battery. I eventually wrestled it off & loosened the lock so it works for now.

Easy to find a replacement lock but not keyed alike to the frame lock. Anyone know where I can get both - keyed alike? cheers

PS. lots of keyed alike combos online but none seem to fit the frame

did utfs but to no avail. someone on here mentioned fitting a dropper seatpost to their urban arrow. thinking of doing the same but concerned it will swivel enough for the ridiculous angle of the ua seat-tube???

omg! red socks & orange laces ;-(

was nice to see @JAH-tim and @OneLessCardigan
this was my "get back on the horse" ride, as last year was when my atrial fibrillation first reared it's ugly head & I only got a few yards up Canonbie, then struggled to walk it! pleased to say the heart ablation op has done it's work & Canonbie was summited, though still a struggle.

Shocking news. Love & condolences to his family.
Really brings it home that we're all at risk out there. Ride safe guys. Support LCC or your local alternative wherever you are

^^ do hope so. Last year it was all a bit tainted for me when I got to Canonbie & had my first AF attack, leaving me panting my way, on foot, up all of the hills

i've only had the wobble when riding one handed (not recommended on a UA)

good luck to all riders. havent done this for a long time but always follow the thread. wont be riding (again) as too far from me & off the bike (and everything else for that matter) for 12 weeks after an incident with a table saw

£48 on eBay ffs

use one of these every day! tho admit i usually buy the cheapo blades.

Tool I still miss, is my Campag Peanut Wrench. Bought it new about 1978, nicked from saddle pack about 2010 #bastards

anyone on here had issues with one of these? bought an Abus Bordo Granit XPlus 6500 90cm and went to use it for the second time today. Some of the lock mechanism came out with the key!

^ poncho ftw (as long as it ain't windy)
often thought about a plastic/rubber apron but haven't found one yet
