Bob, ... I have double sided SPDs, i.e. flat on one side. A folded one on one side would help a little. I wish someone would invent a folding SPD/flat pedal....
Bromptons definitely fit in the overhead luggage racks on South West trains - both the older slam-door ones, and the (marginally) newer ones which run on my...
I think those little SPD frog pedals would protrude much less, and they are rounded rather than squared off which helps in the "poking" department too ;)...
I've just been informed by Yahoo Groups, the outfit that "gives" us Birdybike, that the former function of archiving ATTACHMENTS with messages will no longer...
THANKS PETER !!! The review was helpful, particularly the comparison of folded sizes between FROG and BROMPTON : Thus the Frog can be reduced to a package of...
Dear Peter, MANY THANKS FOR GETTING US THIS INFORMATION.... If you'd like to "check" your calculations (I don't know what all the cog/chainwheel sizes are,...
Hi Bob, ... sorry, I wanted to send the information to the mailinglist, but I didn't... Your fullquote gave it to the others. ... All sizes you need I wrote in...
Putting the Schlumpf Mountain Drive into a FROG is something I hadn't thought of Peter. Great idea if it can be done! That would really improve the utility...
Hi Bob, all, Interesting to see all the QR pedal discussions that have arisen over the weekend. I love the way this group works - we start with a topic, and...
Apologies for coming back to this one but I've just been in Denmark for 2 weeks I think Bill has expressed it very well. Can I just add some observations now...
I like to call the Bike Friday, Moulton, et al., "collapsing" bikes rather than folding bikes. These bikes can be taken apart (disassembled) to make them...
Hello all, Well this is a first. I live by a lake in town, and a dog lives there as well (no owner) and howls at the moon (barks) about the time I am waiting...
I like the term hybrid folder - you should get it patented, Bob, and sell it to BF/Moulton & Airnimal My Birdy folding is getting quicker all the time. I agree...
Brian, I have the same experience with a pack of stray dogs living beside a reservoir. Actually, same time, 5:00 am. I shook and rattled my Elox Birdy with all...

I've Always gotten OFF the bike and put the horizontal length of the bike between myself and the dog, sort of like a bull fighter with a cape. You can easily...
There is a little movie file of a Birdy being expertly folded/unfolded by an R-M employee at a trade show in our FILES section, Ian. birdyfold.mpg 913 KB...
I used a boat aerosol can horn ages ago when I rode in New York City. This was before "ten-speed" bikes came here from Japan. Touring and true racing bikes...
Mine stands on the two mudguards and the rear rollers on the expedition rack - quite stable but can tip on to the spring from front suspension (which is how...
There are some movie players that allow you to examine an .mpg file frame by frame... not sure which ones, exactly. There is a LOT of space between you and the...
