Another puncture, at speed, of the (brand new) rear tyre. This time I picked up a piece of metal in it large enough to wreck the mudguard and the cable for the rear light which runs through it. I know it would be a minor fix to an enthusiast, and I know I've been very unlucky with punctures -...

I've had enough of mine and I'm going to sell. What's a good way to sell this sort of bike - ebay, gumtree, etc?

I haven't had another puncture since switching to Schwalbe Marathon Plus tyres (as suggested above), although circumstances mean it's too early to be really sure the problem is fixed. I'm still really p'd off about the time and effort wasted on punctures - it has spoiled the experience. It's...

I'm still using my Motus but have to say at this point that the factory fit tyres (which are Schwalbe Energizer) really ruin the experience. They seem very delicate; I haven't managed to go 100 miles between punctures yet, and they compound the misery with stupid presta valves. If anyone's...

I'm just outside Halifax and had my Motus delivered yesterday. Happy so far. I'm at home quite a bit if the OP is nearby and wants to see it.

Thanks again for all the suggestions. After a LOT of annoying fannying-around, I have gone for a Raleigh Motus, which was considerably over the original budget. The factors which swayed it for me were: After wasting hours on ringing up dealers and going to see dealers, finding one which both...

Thanks again for all the replies and suggestions. I fancy the Woosh Krieger but am not sure whether it's going to be possible on the Halfords scheme - since Woosh's own website says that it isn't, and they appear to only sell direct Failing that, the Ebco UCR30 is an option. Not perfect, but...

Hi, Thanks all for the replies. The Halfords C2W voucher is accepted by a fair number of independent bike shops, and although Halfords are as arsey as possible about helping with this, it's the route I'm likely to take. I'm not averse to topping up the voucher a bit, but am surprised that...

Hi all, I want to get an ebike on a cycle-to-work scheme, which means an absolute can-not-exceed maximum spend of £1000. It's a Halfords scheme so I think I can get pretty much anything with some minor faffing about. Already got a push bike so got locks, lid, lights, etc. It's for a short...
