Use them quite a bit. Ordered a couple of Energiser tyres last week, the paypal payment mucked up for some reason, but they sorted quickly and without fuss. Upgraded me to 1st class delivery and the normal couple of packets of Haribos turned into the 9 packs. Always use the £5 over £30...

Alternatively to installing a new rivnut, you could try this adapter plate which will allow the battery to be mounted further up the downtube...

Yep, used one of the existing bottle nuts, and a new one further up. Got a tool from ebay ( https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/86PCS-Set-Blind-THREADED-NUT-RIVET-INSERT-TOOL-GUN-RIV-NUT-RIVET-M3-M8-RIVETER/163306985427?hash=item2605dad7d3:g:ujsAAOSwGgdbvhKS:rk:3:pf:0 ) Just take your time, start off...

Or take a punt on this item, 3 Suntour HESC cranks (off the Vulcan I think), one looks like it still has whats left of the sensor https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/sr-suntour-hesc-cranks-for-ebike-x3/253929166080?hash=item3b1f5b9500:g:020AAOSwrwhbv2CD:rk:46:pf:0

Someone on the forum here has successfully converted their crossfire-e to do away with the Suntour controller and pedal sensor for standard kit, gets about 20mph out of it too. From what I can remember all the bits reqd to onvert were about £70

Yep. Raleigh themselves on their website were selling them half price last year on black Friday in Nov for £1250 for the Di2 version, maybe they'll repeat it. Spare battery for a very reasonable £311...

Absolute disgrace, shoddy, unfit for purpose. Demand your money back or better still, demand the superb Crossfire-e as a replacement ! *just kidding, couldn't resist, sorry. Great heads up Mike :)

I've always liked the Strada, as mentioned, clean lines, fuss free, a great commuter. If I was in the market for a new nike I'd considered one, especially as they have the Di2 electronic gear shift Alfine version for £1500 now...

Looks like the bike's still intact after this session...

Aviva and MoreThan are cheap added to house contents insurance, I flip between them at renewal time

or just the flap at 2.99...

I was out a while ago on my ebike, passed a buxom mid 30s blonde scorcher who said I was cheating. I was pleasant to her and followed with a nice long chat about the benefits of ebiking. Things naturally moved on to a suggestion of popping off together to a country pub for a few drinks to...

Surprised too you're asking, I wouldn't be riding even down to the shops until a new tyre goes on that. 3k miles is good going, I run energisers, so same as marathons 3mm puncture belt, normally replace at about 3k miles, purely to maintain tread thickness for puncture protection. Use to get...

The rockrider looks great especially in black/blue. A real competitor for the carrera vulcan if you decide to buy from a chain store. I wonder if you can buy additional batteries for it?

I've pretty much always swapped out all contact points on every bike I've owned (saddles, grips, peddles), as well as tyres, it's a personal thing, so to be expected. Keep the old bits to put back on when you sell the bike on

I commute throughout winter, down to -6 deg c at times. My winter gear: Merino wool socks (the Planet x ones are good as are the Aldi ones) Aldi thick winter cycling gloves, with silk liner gloves for when very cold (Decathlon) Gore windstopper gloves down to just above freezing (Aldi ones...

Carerra Crossfire-e lol
