for one i am not worried about the warranty on the battery , just trying to work out an estimated lifespan based on the increased usage. yes i ride the bike on full assist mode to keep my commute under 45 mins. annoyingly at the moment i only need a small topup , as on a 400w battery i use...

I have a Halfords Carerra Crossfuse and been using it for about a year (De-restricted) i do about 22 miles a day on it 5 Days a week , it needs a full charge overnight and a topup charge during the day so technically its having a charge twice a day 5 days a week , so far the battery seems to...

thanks thats the one i got , do i need to completely coat the cassete and chain etc with it ?

i should really get mine checked for the creaking noise but i think mine is related to the pedals.

cool stuff do you have a link for the stuff you use on amazon or something , does it need a applicator or something to go on the chain/cassette etc ?

hmm ok , i wonder if its the oil i am using , i am just using Muk Off dry and wet lube for different situations , perhaps that is whats wrong , you are probably right , im probably too trusting of bike shops :-)

yes i have that , i think in mine its the pedals though cant seem to find anything loose , but it is annoying.

well i do the basics , cleaning of chains/gears etc , and break pads etc , but prefer to get a professional to do the rest as i dont have the time/skill to do it etc.

fair enough , so more than once a week cleaning then ? ill keep that in mind to prevent extra wear and tear, i have other bike shops around i just figured as i bought it from halfords they would know how to maintain it better.

well i got the bike from halfords , and have been taking it back there for servicing etc , i clean the chain and cassette etc about once a week , and i do 100ish miles a week , i wonder if i should be doing it more.

fair enough that explains it then really , having desrestricted mine it obviously puts a lot more pressure on the gears/chain etc, the parts just werent designed for the extra power etc.

well when i took it into the shop i got it from for maintenance that is what they said so i got it replaced , its a cheap bit to replace , but i do seem to wear them out.

thanks for the review , i have one myself have done about 2000+ this year on it , i am generally seeing a lot of wear and tear on gears/chain/casset etc. i clean and re-lube everything weekly but it just seems to wear out a lot , i have de-restricted it and it seems this is the contributing...
