    Your a good man Elgorgo :) This cycling thing is a truly a game changer that’s for sure. Gives you a whole new perspective. Like you I have explored locally and discovered lots of lovely places I never knew existed.

    Hi chaps, I just finished Oldboys key ring. Figured I would get creative while I wait for my inner tubes. God how I miss flying around on my 345 :( Message me with your address OldBoy if that’s possible here. If not then email me at [email protected]

    Yeah you can forget tyre irons OldBoy. I have some steel ones and sure they will lift the tyre from the rim but there’s just no way you could move them left or right. Plus they are aluminium rims so it wouldn’t take much to warp them. It was at least a front puncture so I didn’t have the hassle...

    You just described what I think happened to me Elgorgo. There was a crew cutting the hedges when I came back from my last ride near where I live. It was a dirty great thorn I pulled from my tyre the next morning. In fact here’s a picture of the little bastard with keys for scale. Grrrr!

    Thanks for that OldBoy :) I had looked there but didn’t see them before. In my mad panic I did find some through Urban Drivestyle in Germany in the end and ordered them. I also wrote to Newgen who have just got back to me and they have some too. So I think I will ask my wife if she can get me...

    Hi folks, sadly I just got a puncture on my 345 and have been looking for inner tubes and just can’t find any. Does anyone have any advise on where to go?

    Out and about on mine every chance I get :) I have to say this bike as I expected is a total game changer for me. I had a pretty serious heart attack last year, fortunately I live near the new Papworth hospital and got fixed real quick (God bless the NHS). Anyway it kinda did me a favour really...

    Hi OldBoy, no I haven’t recharged at all until today. I wanted to run it down to nothing so I have some idea of range. One thing though, my battery level indicator showed full even when I had completely depleted the battery. Hmm? Don’t know why might get in touch with Newgen about it. Still I’m...

    Like a few of you guys I received my 345 on Thursday this week. Just wanted to add to the thread by saying since it’s first full charge up I have got 107 kilometres out of it at assistance level 1. I have of course experimented with other levels especially when doing the show and tell thing with...

    Well my 345 arrived today and I am more than thrilled. Took about an hour to construct and all went very smoothly. Charged the battery and took it out for the first time this evening. Fourteen kilometres of sheer joy and can’t wait to do tomorrow’s commute, which is kind of novel in my little...

    is it double Bad luck to run over a black cat crossing your path?

    It’s only double bad luck if you run over it again on the way back.

    Hi folks, I’m a newbie here but been a guitar player for about 40 years. Here’s my old band Medicine Hat from back in 95, I’m the blonde guy driving the car :) My new band is called “Dirty Lions“ and we just released our second album “Last Time” on digital networks.
