Sounds like you had no inkling it was about to shat out on you, an unexpected expense = needed like hole in head; feel for you. Hope you find a reasonable solution quickly.

I think that passes for correct usage.

TBF had never heard it referenced to gearbox before though..

"Laugh, I nearly shat". Derek and Clive. Yes been around for yonks.

No worries. Another time :) A gearbox shatting sounds somewhat terminal. Hope you get it sorted. Cheers Darren

Something ain't right there, that's for sure!

I guess once you know what's what and where to go for parts you're sorted going forwards. Jump on!

All sounds a bit farcical. Maintenance and accessibility of parts should be straight forward and simply. It sounds like you had a bit of a run about. [emoji53]

Ooof! No real 'cheap fix' available with those I guess.

Lovely bike. I bet the wheels are a nightmare to true though? [emoji51]

Absolutely. Exploring little off shoot tracks and going cross country almost always rewards with a new discovery and some special panoramic views. I shall look forward to meeting up and exploring. Roll on the light evenings :)

Bummer. As per the rule of push homes, did you stop at every pub on route ;)

Yes, that's the place. I've had 3 sliced tyres along that section at the end of last year, limping home with cardboard holding the tube in. One I definitely caused by bouncing the dropper post down, the immediate fast and loud psssssss told me my push had coincided with passing over a sharp...

Hi, I'm Darren. I live in Brighton and I'm addicted to ebikes. There, I said it! Do give me a shout Wednesday morning if you head up that way. Can text me when you know rough time at 07824776399. Tomorrow's looking lovely for it, but I have a family do to go to. Hey ho, summer's on it way. Horray!

Cool, will do :)

Did think you were joshing about air horn ;) I might come and try to find you Wednesday morning then? Would you fancy company of another ebike for a little section? I often play along there, such a great playground to have with riding distance of home. I used to hate the cycle up but since...

That would really get my goat. One must just rise above horsey people (my sister and family are, Ewww!). Horsey people have a level of self-righteousness and importance above mortal folk. Take a lot for me to be patient and bite my tongue but I think I'm better as I get older. Horn's a fun...

Think they're different masts, miles away. The barn is a really old structure at the below map location (if the link works ok?). It's on my lunchtime circuit during the week. I've heard several different people refer to it as the 'Asbestos barn of death', - so I took the name up too as a point...

Good points about startling walkers/horse riders/doggers when approaching on bike especially from behind. I don't currently have a bell (had everything from mickey mouse bell to airzound horn in the past) but I am considering adding one of these to my bars...

I love the sheep photo. Are the masts in the distance the ones by the 'asbestos barn of death' do you know?
