    I don’t have a local bike shop, I’m happy to maintain my own bike, but obviously draw the line at motors.

    Help an old duffer find a new bike

    Hi all, bit of a long gap since my last post I know. It’s now 5 years since I bought my Haibike Full7 LT with a Yamaha motor and it’s been faultless, runs as well now as it did when new. But with more upcoming time on my hands, I fancy a new bike and could do with some advice. I’m posting in the...

    Total newbie starting tomorrow

    Haha, holy thread revival Batman 😂 Yes I’ve been enjoying my bike over the last few years thanks, though nowhere near as much as I’d hoped to due to a health issue and sort of life in general. Sort of forgot about the forum I’m afraid, just never found the time for lots of things. Different...

    mudguards

    Crud XL up front and a (slightly) cut down Mudhugger at the rear. You can see the clear divides between where they protect and where they don't.

    What 'vehicle' to buy?

    I do ;) The van is a camper and bike transporter for weekend/hol use. You should try one, you might be surprised.

    What 'vehicle' to buy?

    I've got my 2nd Transporter, a T6 DSG, fits any bike in, drives like a car, won't fall to bits in a couple of years like a Transit or Sprinter, and keeps its value amazingly well at trade in time

    Crud XL Fender Review

    I've got a Crud XL along with a Mudhugger for the rear and finally have a day off work tomorrow so will be fitting them, along with a Brand X dropper and a new front inner tube then and hopefully getting out on it. Just my luck that all the mud has probably gone now as we haven't had rain for...

    The What Annoyed Me Today Thread - A Place To Rant

    Absolutely mental. As you say, what is wrong with people? Why would someone go to so much trouble purely to stop other people’s enjoyment?

    Can I drill a wheel?

    Thanks, yes as I mentioned above I have ordered some new tubes with Presta valves and ditched the other ones. I also have some tubeless Schrader valves but I'll order some Presta ones when I come to convert to tubeless. At the moment I'm just so short of time and was hoping to spend a couple of...
