Can you provide a link for that?

And what is the appropriate tread depth on the edges?
25/02/2025 - 15:46
You can disagree all you want. It is not 'arguably unnecessary'.

If its worn bald in an area its becasus that part of the tyre was doing more work. There is a reason that uneven wear on tyres makes them…

If the tyre has edge wear its a sign the grip is less than it should be and something is wrong with the alignment or suspension. Uneven…

No. I said if you have the batteries, getting another skin is no different to buying a corded item. Although the cordless may use less…

Im not sure that 240v tools are 'better for the environment'. Its the batteries that are less 'environmentally friendly'. If youve got the…

Its true that battery tools arent as powerful in some cases, circular saw is one where the wall spcket just gives more power. Ive found…

Its the 'australia tax' that keeps prices high. Small market, limited competition, plus half decent standards that prevent some of the…

Maybe its 'easy' in victoria, but its going to mean a big change in NSW for it to be worthwhile. As previously state NSW dossnt cover at…

Third party person insurance does not cover the cyclist and besides that, you've moved the goalposts to electric devi Es now too. 85% of…

I think you are missing the point. Cyclists do not cause enough harm to warrant building the system.

Another advantage of heated seats is turning them on for a stiff back while cranking the AC to cold

Ive stated it several times. I dont believe the low rates of injury to others warrant mandating some form of 'registration and insurance'…

Or better yet, dont add any extra cover for the rider and work out a system of paying for the small number of incidents through something…

In my experience its not particularly thoroughly. BUT, it doesnt take a lot to check the lights are working, have a look at the tyres to…

Personally id rather drivers are forced to get an annual inspection for rego. Too many drivers would not replace tyres (the biggest problem…

Id argue that part of driver behaviour is making sure the car is roadworthy. Having a mechnic throw an eye over a car once a year is a…

It still a massive impost for the very few incidents that may impart 'life long disabilities'. Cyclists do not 'cause carnage on our…
