I've scored a cargo bike which needs a new front wheel. Getting the band brake off I've discovered its a screw-on, ie has a rear wheel hub.
So has anyone got a 24" rear wheel they don't want? Or have seen a 24" bike put out for council collection?

Unfortunately the give way signs on the bike path are a necessary evil. When driving my cage I'm often turning right onto Carrington coming from Wolliies and the bike path visibility is particularly poor, in part due to the tree. It only one cage with someone behind he wheels with less than perfect ...

Re: Sprint Specific Ergo Session Ideas
Your fast twitch fibres will have something like a 15 second duration (varies). To focus the training primarily on these you need to short maximal efforts and then allow a short period of time for them to recover. For example 15 second sprints, 45 seconds rest. Repeat 12 times.

Re: Missing the point on the new cycling laws
That's what I understood, however from the banter I've read I'm wondering if there has been a shiftI believe the law says that cyclists are to use a bike lane 'unless it is impracticable to do so'. Those are the words that will be under scrutiny if one was to be fined for not using a cycleway.

Re: Missing the point on the new cycling laws
Wheel and pedal reflectors are mandatory in WA even if the bike is a fully enclosed recumbent. The law can been catered for by sticking a bit of reflective tap to your rim and the back of the pedals, though I'm not sure how it would go onto double sided SPD's. There seems to be some rumblings that i...

Re: Missing the point on the new cycling laws
Well said Stuart. For the new fines, some are the same as for a motor vehicle, despite the huge disparity in danger to others. And rather than getting rid of out dated laws, as did SA, they have increased the fine. Apparently its safe to ride on the footpath if you are accompanying a minor under 12 ...

Re: WTB 12 tooth track cog
46 - 13 should be fine, that's about the same as 50 - 14. http://www.bikecalc.com/gear_inches
48 - 14 is probably the most common gear with some riding 49 - 14 or 50 - 14
I recall a few years back that Alan Whiteman (Fenpaddler) had a 13 lying around

What I did was buy a base bar and use clip-ons, an inexpensive solution. While the hardware itself is not as aero as an integrated design, it allows for a lot more adjustment. Suggest this avenue if no one comes up with a suitable offering
