Shaun Moran replied to Raymond's discussion In the News & InterTubes"Did anyone see the 60 minutes story on Sunday night called "Forever Young" http://sixtyminutes.ninemsn.com.au/stories/8473229/forever-young
It was basically about the new mid life crisis now being about getting fit and doing heavy…"
Mike Bentley commented on Shaun Moran's group Electric Bikes"Hi Kim .. Yes as Paul has mentioned they should be able to test your battery to see if it has died. If it hasen't then they will be able to check your charger too. If they are both ok then it might be your controller or maybe it is just a blown…"
Paul Martin commented on Shaun Moran's group Electric Bikes"Hi Kim,
Try 'Battery World'. They should not only be able to diagnose the problem but also offer a solution.
Cheers,
Paul"
Kim Huong Nguyen commented on Shaun Moran's group Electric Bikes"I love my electric bike (bought from the Ecoshop in West End last year) until two weeks ago, the charging stopped working. I do not really know if it's the charger's fault or the battery's fault. Ecoshop is closed down now and I do…"

Mike Bentley commented on Shaun Moran's group Electric Bikes"Hi Tony - Yes the electric current is cut off when you apply the brake. In both the front and rear brake levers there is a small switch which is wired into the controller. Whenever you apply/pull one of the brake levers it triggers the switch which…"
Shaun Moran replied to eBrent's discussion My New Bike"Nice looking bike Brent and a great pic. I bet you notice the improved shifting with the 105 rear gears?"
Iain replied to Shaun Moran's discussion DIY Bike Maintenance"I just found this place if you dont have all the tools to do the maintenance."
Tony Gunning commented on Shaun Moran's group Electric Bikes"Hi Mike, Thanks for the look over and test ride of your bike on the weekend. It was great, have a quick question tho either yourself or Sapoty could answer. Does the electric motor cut out when you grab the brake? Say in an…"
Mike Bentley commented on Shaun Moran's group Electric Bikes"Hi Sapoty - You are right . . The battery is much lighter than I thought. Definitly no more than 5 kilos. My bad.
Yes I have mounted the GPS case on my handlebar and I am running an ipaq 212 PDA which can do just about everything except be a phone.…"
"What a great idea! Pity we didn't try that the other week."
Raymond replied to Shaun Moran's discussion DIY Bike Maintenance"As a child, I remember my dad dipping the ends of the grips of a new trike (for my younger brother) into a saucepan of water to install them out of the box. It looked like a bit of an inelegant hack job, but he clearly had the same idea as you Paul.…"
Paul Martin replied to Shaun Moran's discussion DIY Bike Maintenance"Excellent.
Another method - For impossibly tight plastic grips I dip them in hot water for a few minutes. It softens the grips and they come off more easily."
eBrent replied to Shaun Moran's discussion DIY Bike Maintenance"Here is a little tip for moving/removing handle grips WITHOUT the use of lube... I saw it on you tube and thought.. That's fake. But it totally works!
Here is the tip... If you have a compressor, slip something just under the grip at the end,…"

Donna Pearson said… Hey there :) 'Triathlete' is a bit of a stretch - after doing a couple it turns out that I can't swim! So I'm sticking to what I can do and that is ride. Bren did a few tri's with the Optus guys a few years back, but not anything since then.
