Anyone Used Cheap Ebay Carbon Handlebars?

A question about : Anyone Used Cheap Ebay Carbon Handlebars?

I'm not enjoying the riding position on my hybrid bicycle just now because it uses straight & narrow handlebars on it where as my mountain bike uses raised wide bars and feels a much better riding position for me.

I'm wanting to try some wide & raised bars on the hybrid to see if this makes it feel comfier to cycle and found these

The picture does seem to show an accident waiting to happen, do street designers need to go on a common sense course ?

Railways, Tramways, Busways, Driverless Vehicles

A question about : Railways, Tramways, Busways, Driverless Vehicles

I started a thread recently about branch line Railway Level Crossings, and the consensus seems to be that the braking systems of modern railway trains cannot be relied upon. To me, this seems to be no less ridiculous than the idea that HGV drivers are routinely unable to see what is happening alongside the nearside length of their vehicle.

First Great Western

A question about : First Great Western

Help please MSE!

Has anyone else noticed that FGW have effectively massively increased their advance fares this week. I don't mean the Jan price rises. That aside they have clearly drastically altered/reduced the number and choice of cheaper advance fares.

I called FGW customer services to ask them to confirm but the guy didn't have a clue, not his fault he just hadn't been briefed but agreed there didn't seem to be the same spread of fares.

Commuting from Wimbledon to Epsom

A question about : Commuting from Wimbledon to Epsom

Hi guys,

I'm considering taking a job in Epsom, but I'm not sure how much I'd be paying to travel there from Roehampton. The couple of times that I've visited the site, I've had to take a bus to Wimbledon and a train from there, with a oyster travel card to cover the bus and a day return ticket for the train.
Is there a monthly season ticket I could get that would cover my whole journey, and how much would that be?

Thanks in advance!
