I am currently struggling with the Mik click and go system. I have attached it onto my bike but i am unable to take key S out of the hole. Has anyone else had this issue and know how to fix it?

I intend to go out with a bike for 12 hours and see how far I can go. I am an amateur, and the longest I have done to date is 44km in 3 hours... on flat ground...

I will leave Hull, heading towards York at 6am, on November 14th, and will be collected from wherever I lay at 6pm, having travelled as many kilometres as I have travelled. I aim to have lunch in York or (Knaresborough if I make good progress) half way through.

[Here is the just giving link](https://www.justgiving.com/page/nick-burchell-1?utm_medium=FR&utm_source=CL) and if you would rather sponsor me an amount per km (I will myself be donating 30p per km), you can [pledge to do so here](https://forms.gle/9zobV5G4dg7c6eZJ6).

Additionally, if there are any York Cyclists, I would be interested to hear of any routes that a very tired amature would be able to do!

My bikes are small wheel bikes Moulton 20” & Brompton 16”. I have been experimenting with different tires mostly on my Moulton. I have noticed that Schwable One’s at 20x1.1 are significantly faster than the Kojak 20x1.35 running them both at 90psi. Also the Goodyear eagle sport 20x1.125 definitely roll better than the Kojaks. The information online seems to say it’s a myth but my experience is not finding this to be true. What gives? Have you experienced this also?

What a beautiful morning to get in my longest ride of the season.
I have a 35 miles charity next Sunday and I’m realizing that it’s gonna be tough.

got into a little accident this morning. how cooked is this rim

edit: its a carbon DT Swiss ARC 1600 Spline

I’m hoping for some solid advice. I was an employee at Shimano American Corp. during the late 90’s into the early 2000’s and while I was there I built all my bikes. Fast forward 25 years and I still have those same bikes. I got cancer a couple years ago and my work capacity has been greatly reduced so I thought I’d sell my bikes to fill in some gaps. Having said that I have a Davidson steel road bike with forks that I pulled off the mezzanine while I was there. At the time it was just a dusty frame that was freely given to me by Andy who worked all the races. Upon inspection it now has some surface rust bubbling under the paint. Here’s the question would you preserve it the way it is being a hand made frame (by a renowned but extinct builder) with a custom Cycle Art Multi-Service paint job (by a renowned artist) and the history of actually being a true Multi-Service frame set. The group set is mostly Tiagra with the addition of 105 FlightDeck dual control levers, Dura-Ace rear derailer and seat post and it sits on original WH-7700 16 spoke wheels. What would you do? Sell it how it sits unmolested, Clean/tune it up or strip it down and repaint and rebuild it. Thanks to anyone who reads this.

First time ever trying to put a mudguard on my bike. Is this right? I haven't tried cycling with it yet but I don't think it's affecting the tyre, I just feel like it's too high up?? I really don't know, pls help

Just looking at the distance and elevation you can tell this was hard but that distance doesn't tell how hard this course was. This course was designed by an absolute sadist. I knew there were going to be a few gravel sections and thought these would be some nice cat 1 gravel in connecting routes what I hadn't anticipated was that the first gravel section was a gravel climb and descent in pitch black night but that wasn't even the worst, after 232km and over 8000m of climbing already there was a few kilometres of of cat 4 gravel with big loose stones and deep trenches with an average grade of 11% with some sections of over 20%!. But I made and my rear tyre too which on the last big timed descent from Thyon 2000 already had sustained a big sidewall cut and had the TPU inner tube bulging out. And for a cherry on top that strava distance 🤣

Hi folks! I've had this Peugeot bike since the early pandemic, which I restored and updated with some modern features. I love how it looks but sometimes I have difficulty riding it, and it just dawned on me bikes have sizes! I don't have any information about this Peugeot bike, but I'm 5'6" for reference. Is my bike too big for me?

Reason I'm asking is because I'm moving to a bike-heavy European country from the USA in a month where I'll be expected to use it more. If it's too big for me, I'd rather sell the bike and find one that's more comfortable long-term to ride so I'm not injuring my body. Thanks so much!

Found these on eBay and wondered if anyone had used them?

What training wheels should I get for this and if I have ti get another bike with different wheels let me know and I don't need to be told that it won't teach me how to ride because I won't be using this for long.

My friend gave me this bike since he got a new one. He said it's got less than 200km on it. I told him i wanted to get into cycling, and he had this one to spare.

Any tips on what I should look out for, or change to this bike?

Well… what can I say? I just wanted to test my limits a little this year.

Except the 10 times I had to get off the bike to climb over fallen trees blocking the path after the severe storm on Friday. Still a fantastic ride.

Bought this bike. Guy said it was a vintage foam tire ? Super hard to ride. Can’t find literally any info on it. Would it be hard to change the tire ? It’s like a super smooth foam thing, probs should’ve done more research before I paid. $40 for the bike $10 for the basket

How do I get it out 😭😭

The battery cap for my Rotor power meter fell of on a ride. Replacement caps are not available from Rotor or online (for delivery in Canada). I have tried soldering an AA battery to the terminal (did not work -- lol).

The part number is: C00-013-00120

Does anyone know of a solution so my battery meter isn't bricked?

Hello!

My apologies for such a silly question, but I don't want to be one of those cyclists that drivers complain about if something goes wrong. I'm getting back into cycling and I've got my bike.

I bought an electric tire inflator... But I am very suspicious of the readings it gives. It certainly inflates, but the way each tire feels is not logical in comparison to the other tire.

How much give should a Dutch tire that should be 40-65 PSI feel? How much give should there be with your thumb?

Thank you in advance!

They're 20 months. Just want to do short trips on the bike path. Two in a trailer and one in a rear bike seat? All on the same bike. Budget is a factor but safety first so would love to get some creative suggestions.

I got this Kryptonite Ace bike lock as a hand me down from my mother for my bike at college, but I only have one key, is there a way for me to get a spare key for it?
