I've always liked the Strada, as mentioned, clean lines, fuss free, a great commuter. If I was in the market for a new nike I'd considered one, especially as they have the Di2 electronic gear shift Alfine version for £1500 now...

Looks like the bike's still intact after this session...

Aviva and MoreThan are cheap added to house contents insurance, I flip between them at renewal time

or just the flap at 2.99...

SKS Velo 42/47 (depending on tyre width) with U stays...

I was out a while ago on my ebike, passed a buxom mid 30s blonde scorcher who said I was cheating. I was pleasant to her and followed with a nice long chat about the benefits of ebiking. Things naturally moved on to a suggestion of popping off together to a country pub for a few drinks to...

Surprised too you're asking, I wouldn't be riding even down to the shops until a new tyre goes on that. 3k miles is good going, I run energisers, so same as marathons 3mm puncture belt, normally replace at about 3k miles, purely to maintain tread thickness for puncture protection. Use to get...

The rockrider looks great especially in black/blue. A real competitor for the carrera vulcan if you decide to buy from a chain store. I wonder if you can buy additional batteries for it?

I've pretty much always swapped out all contact points on every bike I've owned (saddles, grips, peddles), as well as tyres, it's a personal thing, so to be expected. Keep the old bits to put back on when you sell the bike on

I commute throughout winter, down to -6 deg c at times. My winter gear: Merino wool socks (the Planet x ones are good as are the Aldi ones) Aldi thick winter cycling gloves, with silk liner gloves for when very cold (Decathlon) Gore windstopper gloves down to just above freezing (Aldi ones...

Carerra Crossfire-e lol

Also, if you hold down the battery power button for 10 sec the number of bars will show capacity health all 5 bars lit is what you want, more info in hesc manual

The spoke issue is down to the angle that they leave the rim. I'm considering at the moment in having the wheel rebuilt as I have already replaced about 4 spokes in 9mths. My previous crossfire-e was the same. The rebuild will use stronger spokes but more importantly the rim will be heavy duty...

Like me, it'll cost you about £660 on the cycle scheme as it cost me with the deal I had. All very well saying swap it for the crossfuse but that's nearly £1k more for us, or £600 more for the op (assuming he paid what it's on offer at the moment at £1000). I've no doubt the crossfuse is...

For info it will only ever display 99%,there's no 3rd digit. The battery is still taking a charge while the charger light is red, once green its fully charged

Spoke to Alice at Yosepower, 350w rear motor kits with battery back in stock next week. I'm looking for another 36v 13ah Hailong battery from them (as in the kit), have been told no stock coming for 2 months :(. Also looking for a 700c/350w/with battery kit for converting my bro's bike)...

What top speed are you getting on the flat? Be interested in how the suntour (bafang apparently) is wound as I know its very torquey and great on the hills, but wondered on top speed now it's been unrestricted

Crossfire-e is my daily commuter for the past 2 years, 12 mile round trip, ride it on top assistance level, uses about 50% battery a day (one big hill on route). I get the odd cut out (reset/re-seat battery), and I have had some spokes snap on the rear wheel, apart from that, no issues...

I ended up even with a wider bottom bracket, but I removed the back of the sensor (small single screw), then pushed on the wheel with the metal round dots onto the bottom bracket, then fitted the other half ( with the cab;e) and ran a bit of gaffer tape around the whole thing. Not pretty but...

Yep, my brother now wants one for his missus bike, all out of stock. They come in and out of stock a lot, shame they don't just ship in loads from China in one go, they'll sell them no problem. Now I'm sorted on mine, will be looking to get a spare battery for when I take the bike to the...
