How To Fix Bicycles - Blog
Just another WordPress weblog
You might be wondering to know what factors meet the classic bike criteria that reduce the classic motorbike insurance premium than any other standard bike insurance premium. Here are a few the factors which meet the classic bike criteria
1. The classic motorbike must be at least 20 years old.
2. The insurance policy will have a limited mileage restriction that generally ranges from 2000, to 3500 or 5000 miles in a single year. Thus the lower the mileage, the lower the usage, thus reduces the risk of road accidents.
3. The insured must have another vehicle for daily commute which again reduces the amount the bike is actually used on the roads.
4. When not in use, the classic bike must be kept in some secure, locked garage at the home address when not in use. If the bike will be kept safe , it will reduce the risk of theft which in turn reduces the cost of the bike insurance premium.
5. The insurance policy restricts the usage of bike to domestic, social and for joy rides or pleasure use only thus excluding commuting again and possibly reducing the amount of time the motorbike is on the road.
6. The owner of the bike must be over thirty years of age and must have held full motorbike driving licence for at least two years. Age and experience of the classic bike rider thus makes a bearing on the insurance premium.
Most of these insurance benefits are provided only under a Classic motorcycle insurance policy that would not be normally included under a standard motorcycle policy.

27/07/09
Winter is not the time for bicycling. It is not very convenient to use two-wheeled vehicle when there’s a lot of snow and ice around. With that in mind we have decided to describe the process of making a ski bike. These bikes can be used by people wearing who understand how dangerous they are and who will do everything to keep themselves protected.
To begin with, don’t use metal bars in winter. Make sure to use quality bicycle grips or simply use tape for the old ones. And don’t use a pair of new ski. You will never be able to use them after that. And never use a new bike. As you can see, only old things are good for a ski-bike. First of all, take the bake and throw away all the necessary parts, such as whels, brakes, cables, etc. But make sure to leave seat, fork, frame, seatpost, bars headset. After that you will have to cut wood and drill a couple of holes in them. Ski (front and rear) will be attached to this wood. So this wood is used to make two blocks - front and rear. There should be one block in front, and two blocks in the back.
Skis should be attached to the blocks with the help of good nails. You don’t want anything to go wrong, do you? What is more, there should be a pair of mountain skis. You need firmness and they will provide you with it. After that you just need to attach skis to the frame and enjoy the winter.
We intentionally don’t give the sizes of blocks and the ideas of how to drill holes in them. This article can just give you some ideas on how to have some fun. You can simply use it. But be very careful and don’t use ski-bike on highways or roads used by cars. And don’t forget to protect your body. This fun is dangerous.
