My Kudos Tourer is 5 years old today and it's still going strong. We've been through many trips together and there's a few battle scars but it still does the business. I broke the original battery a while ago but my spare battery is about 4 years old and still going strong.

I've renewed a couple of things on it over the years: the twist gear change got changed to a trigger changer, the bottom bracket has been renewed and the rear carrier has been renewed. Obviously tyres and brake pads too.

I've done about 4000 miles on it which isn't as much as some would do but I've also got a Kudos Typhoon and a Merida bike so I share the miles between them.

One alteration I made was to fit the battery carrier from a Typhoon to it so now it has 2 batteries and the weight is better distributed.

It was the best thing I ever bought.

Many happy returns.
