My God, I didn't realise it was that fast. It makes rinko seem like the only option.This is how quickly it can be done. Broad daylight outside Angel tube Islington:
Insurer’s warning as bike thefts still on the rise since start of pandemic
The warning comes as a cyclist has shared CCTV of a bike thief using an angle grinder in broad daylightwww.cyclingweekly.com
The smaller one goes on the front.
The longer one is the back.
doesn’t seem to fit that way
Gimme a picture of the guard and which bit you're fitting it to. It's quite common for a bike to need a different bolt from the ones they supply with the mudguard to make it work.doesn’t seem to fit that way
A good sized front one will keep most (all) of the spray from your front wheel off your feet, legs, and face.
thanks, think i’ve worked it out, didn’t realise you could adjust the angle of the arms attaching the guard to the frame forks. Don’t think i’ve got it quite right. Same with the pannier, the rack seems too loose where it’s attached to the seat post so I don’t want to load it with anything just right, but it looks like this so far:
Those locks that have a tubular key in them are easily picked. You get a universal key off the internet. I doubt many d locks get picked though. It’s all Lidl grinders these days.
Shouldn't there be a bar running down from the rack to where the seat stay and chain stay meet? Or have I missed something in your photo?
Guards look good but the rack looks kinda high, is there a way of flipping it or altering the angle where it joins the seat tube so it sits lower?
It’s going to fuck the centre of gravity especially if Orangutan puts anything in it. Makes the bikes lines look shit too. Bin it.
it’s deffo the right way up in the pic of the ‘instructions’
there’s one on the rear of the central pannier bag
Batteries are way better these days, cordless is pretty much the default, and is also encouraged by HSE as hard to get a shock off one, no cables to accidentally cut.
You could attach the rack, not to the seat post but to the frame upright member. That will lower it by four inches and make a huge difference to the handling.
Nooooooooo
there's definitely something not right with your rack though ... Agree that perhaps it's the wrong size arm for your frame. You will probably be able to clip your rear light to a loop on the back of the bag or there may be a bit of plastic bracket in the packaging for the rack that allows you to mount it to the back of that.
No I couldn’t. The rack attaches to the seat post, but it looks like it should be upside down so it will sit lower, nearer the seat, and perhaps give me some clearance on the seat post for reflector and lights to be visible. I think I’ve been given the wrong rack.
