    Took me back to the 70's trying to hop back onto a kerb and the front wheel just running parallel to it. Like a superbike speedwobble. Only at 15 mph! Lol.

    I had a retro style slip on wet cut grass the other night trying to remount a path. Got off path cos I was worried about thorns, nearly speedwayed the the bike getting back on the bugger.

    Oh crap!! I'm paranoid about things like this. Brand new bike too! I once got a puncture from a hedgehog spine or spike. Have you heard of 'slime'? Which is put into the tyre to seal it? Popular in the U.S with trail riders I believe.

    How did you get the original puncture do you think mate? I was on a pathway last night and the bushes had all been cut. I was pedalling along thinking "oh f*** there'll be thorns everywhere". Nightmare.

    That's great! Exactly how I feel. I love the gears too. I need to quit the fags n booze too. I quit the jazz a while back. I find cycling just too.... well boring. With this bike it's just fun fun fun! Practical fun as well. I'm caring for my mother at the moment (dementia) and it's really...

    My sons had it at a fair old speed although the cadence cuts out at 15mph. I've found the Shimano Alto gears on mine very handy and responsive. Here's something I was thinking: Seems we've all got throttles, using them on road invalidates the warranty? 🤔

    I notice yours has a blue compression switch on front fork. Mines red on the lite. Could anyone explain it and the preload on the other side?
