    Wheel change on 2014 bike

    I presume that 14 refers to year, I have the same bike except 18. I'm worried now as I have the same marks on my wheel rim. Measuring with a caliper they are both 25mm at the widest point.

    Wheel change on 2014 bike

    Halfords & Freego

    Booked my Wife's 24" 2014 Freego Regency Ebike into Halfords for a Bike service, Brakes, Chain, etc. They have done it nearly every year with no problems. When I left it in today....20 minutes later I got a phone call saying they would not do it as it was not on their List of Approved bikes. I...
