Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

I've got an EC130E that I rate highly. The prices can fluctuate and I've head bad things about customer service. But they are cheap.

Has anyone seen the cermacspeed direct drive? I mean, you can't change gear, but who needs to?

Speaking as an engineer's husband, that looks amazing. As a biker, I’d be suspicious...no shaft drives at the TT, in MotoGP or at any of the SuperBike series. Just saying.

Meanwhile, am I the only one that thinks it a shame that PlanetX haven’t devised a cool nickname for their EC130e. Typhoon, Sparrowhawk, Eagle (perhaps not, remember Eagle bikes made Apollos seem light).

They should have had a fit about electronic shifting.

Morning all.

Yes, that was odd. Then I don't really approve of electric winches on racing yachts either.

Ankh, how does 'direct drive' work on the BMW motorcycle then? I thought that was a driveshaft of some description?
