This 19-minute video consists of 12 minutes of showing how old and dirty this particular C5 is, followed by the rest of the video showing the unscrewing of a few bolts and screws. No restoration is done.
Ok. You should release the "long screw" justabout 5 millimeters and hit with hammer. This will release the expanding block which allows handlebar height adjustment and also removal of the handlebar. Incredibly few people know about this astounding fact.
Prediction: Dave will totally destroy the handlebar assembly with brute force and invent some explanation. The expanding block is still stuck there and the only way to release it is described above.
Did I mention that if you remove the pedals with hammer and chisel, the precise surfaces become mangled and twisted and the pedals become "clickety". Very annoying, and you cannot really fix this except with new axle.
I preordered a Sinclair X-1 bike (i didn't pay anything), but it unfortunately never got built. I believe Sinclair's son is still
promoting it on Instagram.
The idea of an electric bicycle with weather protection is obvious, unfortunately it seems they are too expensive to manufacture to ever leave their tiny market niche. Most new models never make it to production (and there are lots of them - look through this forum thread:
