    FOR SALE - Handlebar Mount Powerpoint with 12 Volt and USB outlets

    Maybe a silly question.if I connect to a 28 volt system can the unit handle the 28 volts.many items such as gps are 5 thru 32 volts.it just so happens I could use the outlets but with a 28 volt input. If so I could use a few. Look like nicely made units that will last. Thanks

    Knobbly limitations

    My experience with motor vehicle tyres is you can't get the tyres balanced with slime or the like.exhaustive tests with differing tyres,amounts of slime etc.so I see no reason why the bike wheel will be any different.slime may be the issue despite the advantage of having the stuff.good luck
