Mum's just moved to the city, and is hoping to ride her bike rather than drive her car. Her bike was banished to a damp shed for 15 years and isn't in very good nick, but she really likes it. It's ru…

If you've had a bike stolen or lost some stuff
You're having problems with this guy, I reckon: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trapezius_muscle
My understanding is that it's a common problem for cyclists who ride mountain or road bikes. Try doing upright rows (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Upright_…
For the decals you might try contacting a sign writer. I know when a decal was falling off my car my brother in law who was a sign writer at the time offered to replace it. I think with computers and vinyl cutting machines they can do a lot. As long…
My partner got clipped by a car (wing-mirror hit handlebars) and when she went to the police they turned her away saying that nothing bad came of it, so they couldn't do anything...right. :/
I recommend Cemntral Powdercoaters, Kent St, Richmond. They charge about $50 per frame I think. Any number of colours to choose from their 'coke can' display. They do all the preparation - you just need to remove everything down to the bare frame (i…
Thanks Roger!
Just was browsing ebay and saw these ... decals for a swedish Cresent from the 70's .. $50
Oh. Sorry - getting my bikes and cycles confused. CargoBikes.com.au have released a new model, so I'm hoping they have sorted out the stability. I'll give one a test-ride first...will take it through some corners. :)
Not sure, I think that it was one of these http://www.cargobikes.com.au/ but honestly I am not sure so I will reserve any judgment! The two wheeler that I have comes with an 8 speed hub - this seems quite adequate!
Are you saying the cargocycles.com.au ones are unstable, or was it another brand?
I'm a little concerned about the quality of manufacture, but I'm pretty handy with a welder should anything fail. The downside I see is that it is only a three-speed.…
Hi there
I had a friend who got one of the cheaper three wheelers on the market, apparently the thing was very unstable going into corners (and hence VERY slow) - worthwhile considering. I also knew someone with a Christiana - and I regularly see o…
awesome, those things look tough as.
Aha! Saw one in town today, asked the owner whence it came and was told Cargo Cycles in Melbourne. $1165 for the top of the line model. Totally getting one.

Thank Ben - the two-wheeler isn't what I want - need the stab…
Yes, what a price!! I just sprayed 2 coats of dulux on a bike (1 can) and just bought another can which might just cover it -- the cans are $13 each and it's really hard to do evenly and I have to wait for a still night when there is no wind and the…
That is exactly what I'm after - colour and all! I guess I could create some stick-on decals, have them cut out in plastic/thin vinyl and then give it a clear-coat or two...
Thanks for the recommendation! (and what a price!)
Hi There
I don't know about spray painters who do bicycles, but I recently got a bike powder coated by Central Powder Coaters
(33 Kent Rd Keswick SA 5035 (08) 8351 1133) for my daughter - they came recommended to me by a friend who has had several…

- G'day and welcome (officially) to Adelaide Cyclists.
I/we hope you get something out of the site. Let me know if there is anything you think would be good to add,
You can write forum posts, maintain a blog, post pictures and videos (and add from YouTube) and create events to invite members to. You can join groups or start your own for your riding group, club or interest.
Please tell your cycling friends and if you are on Twitter and would like to follow @ade_cyclists and RT sometimes that would be excellent!
Cheers
Angus
