    Second Hand Electric Bikes

    I don't think the eBay model works for relatively expensive and fairly complex items. You can't see before you buy because eBay don't want people to view and buy direct. I gave up and killed a listing after trying to sell a Carrera Crossfuse with no joy on eBay. eBay blocks attempts to send...

    Suggestions for Cycle Route Planner ?

    Komoot's the one I use. You can plan on the PC and have the route on your phone. It will record your distance and vertical range as you cycle, even if you haven't planned a route. It works for me. I lashed out £13 or so on the complete maps when there was a special offer. Otherwise free...

    Bike Stands

    If I remember correctly, my Carrera Crossfuse is 24kg with the battery on. I usually take it off when working on the bike. It makes it easier to lift, so probably just over 21 kg is what I put on the stand. It'll be a little bit weightier than the standard spec, as I've put mudguards, a...

My range improved greatly when I had been cycling a month or so, not having cycled for 40 years or so due to our steep terrain in North...

    Bosch Nyon '21 Q/A & Top Tips

    I'm very tempted by an upgrade to Nyon from a Purion. My bike is a Carrera Crossfuse, which I am very pleased with, apart from the very basic nature of the Purion. Halfords are not massively impressive from the customer service point of view. I had to try various Halfords kickstands they...
