Hi KD, I am in the same boat as you, having sold my carrera crossfire mk1 after 4 years. I have coronary problems and am looking for a good replacement. I narrowed it down to either a bike with the Bosch gen 4 performance line CX from the likes of Cube or Haibike with torque sensor system or the...

cycle republic are selling the carrera crossfuse for £1,460 as to Halfords £1,600. I asked my local Halfords if they would price match, the manager agreed they would, I pushed it further and requested forces discount schemes 10%, he agreed they would include that discount as well. So i'm down to...

Halfords have made a bid to buy out Evans cycles and concentrate on E bike sales. I have to say my Carrera Crossfire nearly 2 years old now is still absolutely bril to ride.

any chance of a youtube video, any particular part of the motor housing, what grease etc

I am amazed at some ebike prices, no, horrified! tell you what Tim in mho you won't go far wrong visiting Halfords and trying the Carrera crossfire or crossfuse out. Well built good backup. ok some have experienced problems, but the thing is most Halfords are within reasonable distance, if you...

I do not have any broken spokes, but have ordered a spoke tool, so will tension test each one. Q. How much tension do you apply to a rear hub e bike (carrera crossfire) wheel spoke?

I had my stent 2 years ago after 3 heart attacks, the first 2 were on my mountain bike I just felt really rough with no energy and a strange feeling in chest (not pain) I just rode home slow and slept. The 3rd one I collapsed walking up an hill. Consultant said I was extremely lucky. Anyways...

I'm just gagging to get out regularly on my e bike, have done a couple of quick 10 milers on nice but cold days. Just waiting for spring to kick in to let loose!

i'm 64, always considered myself fit and healthy until a heart attack whilst out on my mountain bike 2 years ago. Well, stents and loads of medications for life including beta blockers which are yuk on hills I purchased an e bike. I have to say that was one of the best decisions I have ever...

I fixed the cut out problem by placing a tie wrap over the connector (photo) give it a shot you have nothing to lose. The heel of my trainer used to catch the connector only slightly. Has'nt cut out for a few hundred miles now

When this thing gets up to 88mph your going to see some serious s*** :)

Well, that puts my flux capacitor mod to shame

Hi BB same as you purchased my carrera crossfire e bike earlier this year, for the price I think the bike is awsome. Like you I experienced cut outs at I think it was about 600 miles, but cured it by placing a plastic tie wrap around the connector to keep it solid, I think the heel of my left...

Completed 150 miles since placing a tie wrap around the connector with no further cut outs, hope it stays good:)

ocd my ar*e, just lookin after £1,000 of kit, does'nt everyone do that? don't know about you but leaving it in the garage covered in sh'te is not for me

eeeeaaaarrrggggg no way can I not clean oil and check/maintain the bike after every ride. Just one of them things installed into my dna

Anyone watching Britain by bike on channel 5. Larry and George Lamb. Noticed Larry is on an electric bike, looked good on them Yorkshire hills. Not sure what electric bike it is yet

Previous experience of using a bike once they have started putting rock salt on the roads is not good. No matter how you clean your bike, salt, rusts and corodes many parts. I'm reluctant to use my crossfire e bike and see it rot away but do not want to stop the excellent exercise and fun of...

That's the one, I placed the extra tie wrap across the connector, the heal of my trainer kept catching it, might of interupted the connection. Theory anyway, no cut outs yet!

Update. Talking to a Halfords technician who has successfully repaired this fault, the rear connector located lower rear frame left side, needs to be well secured to the frame. (looking at mine the location is where the heel of my trainers sometimes catches that part). I added a wide plastic...
