    Cheapish Motor Wheels

    I think there's a place for both - Woosh for full support/aftersales/warranty etc and Aliexpress/Poland/Germany for those who want to take their chances and save money. You can't blame savvy savers with technical skills wanting to buy the same Bafang/Tongsheng sealed brown box for £150 less...

    How do you deal with a puncture/breakdown when out?

    A gaadi tube, tyre levers and a pump (or co2 canister pump) is all you need and a penknife (if you want to cut away and sacrifice the punctured tube, otherwise just pull it out and wrap around frame/stay/forks for repairing at home) Just make sure you run your finger inside the tyre to check...

    Remember I am UK based so NO US makes or outlets please

    Yes, sometimes I do get a bit muddy. Luckily for me I have a washing machine and a shower, and a hose to wash my bike. I don't combine a muddy bike ride with a trip to the shops, don't think I'd fit a weeks groceries in the pannier bag. And shops are boring, unlike muddy bike rides

    Remember I am UK based so NO US makes or outlets please

    Well my definition of fun is clearly different to yours. I'd rather see deer, rabbits, and other wildlife on my alternative off road commute route home (below), than looking and hearing at traffic. Plus, 'stupid' knobblies work on roads better than road tyres work on mud

    Remember I am UK based so NO US makes or outlets please

    Riding on roads is pretty boring compared to an off road countryside gravel track.... it's not all about getting from A to B with minimum fuss, even in winter there's still a bit of fun to be had !. And Schwalbe MP's are not the best in cold and wet, there's better road tyre options that still...

    Advice on correct bike size (Cube reaction pro)

    If the dealer won't exchange the bike, you might have to look at buying a longer seat post, plenty of options. just remove the seat post and measure, I think the Cube ones are 30.9mm diameter, yours might be 350mm in length in which case get the 400mm length one which will allow it to go higher...

    Seeking Advice on Affordable Ebike for 20-Mile Daily Commute (£500-£600 = Budget)

    Surely a £500 ebay bike is gonna have cheaper/inferior quality components that are gonna fail quicker doing 5k miles per year ? That's a lot of winter miles that can punish a bike, I know, did a 12 mile commute every day in all weathers for 5 years

    Hi just joined

    Hi just joined

    I can confirm the old type (on the left) bike works fine with the Yosepower battery that Cyclebuddy has linked too, the only operational difference is that the new battery doesn't show a percentage value remaining on the display but does show the battery bars. It does also come with a charger...
