    Carrier help needed please

    Thank you everyone. Amazon do the XT2 and I can also get the loading ramp and carry bag. Excellent price as well but will do a bit more searching. Our bikes have steel in frame locks and we also have some kryptonite ones. I think if a thief is determined they will be able to remove stuff...

    Help! Orlieb panniers and moustache bikes

    Apologies for delay in responding. We’ve gone for Ortlieb rollers - 1 set for OH’s bike for starters and I’ll try them to see how I get on with them. Having read up on reviews it’s worth spending the money as they appear to be fantastic quality.

    Moustache Samedi 28.5

    Our Samedi 28.5’s arrived 2 weeks ago and they are fantastic. Gorgeous red colour - I have a step thru and OH has one with a crossbar. So comfortable to ride and the handlebars are great for people with low back problems as a more upright position. The motor assist is effortless and very...

    Moustache Samedi 28.5 low step 2020

    Thank you Jonah. I am going to have to buy unseen, because the agent here doesn’t have that model in stock - naturally they want to stock what will sell easily and I guess they don’t have a lot of short older ladies as clients!
