Temporary because there will have to be an n-1 at some point after, with the other outgrown bike off the basement to await #3 getting bigly. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=15468#post-289881 Wed, 29 Aug 2018 11:59:05 +0000 LivM 289881@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Did an n+1 thing today... will be an e-bike rider soon.

I changed colours, tyres etc but could not figure the upgrade to 105. I would get it. If I had another space in the garage. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=15468#post-199435 Mon, 21 Sep 2015 18:27:41 +0000 Arellcat 199435@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>After entering the <a href="http://www.brompton.com/News/Posts/2015/Build-And-Win">Win-a-Brompton!</a> competition it occurred to me that when my entry comes to naught...ah ha! – I could buy one through my work's cycle to work scheme. Then I discovered that a titanium Brompton with such niceties as mudguards, a telescopic seatpost, <strike>lowered</strike> Edinburgh gearing and a SON hub dynamo is <em>shockingly</em> expensive these days.</p> <p>The more I thought how lovely it'd be, the more I realised that actually, I'd feel sorry for the highly customised but shoulder tearingly heavy Brompton I own already. The mythical grey metal is wonderful stuff but lusting is a lot cheaper. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=15468#post-199417 Mon, 21 Sep 2015 11:56:26 +0000 Mandopicker101 199417@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>@chdot - droll... :-) </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=15468#post-199416 Mon, 21 Sep 2015 11:55:28 +0000 chdot 199416@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>You'd have to change your username. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=15468#post-199415 Mon, 21 Sep 2015 11:51:52 +0000 Mandopicker101 199415@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>In light of recent bike-related travails and growing repair bills to the Crosser, Mrs Mandopicker suggested that I might wish to obtain a new bike. My works Cycle2Work scheme is currently open so this seems a serendipitous option(although we've thrown our lot in with Halfords). </p> <p>Having perused Halford's own options, I've also looked at other suppliers involved in the scheme. </p> <p>I'm quite taken with Mango's cross and roadbike options.<a href="http://www.mangobikes.co.uk/bikes/point-range/point-r-road-bike-r460-shimano-tiagra12">Point All-Road bike</a> and the <a href="http://www.mangobikes.co.uk/bikes/point-range/point-r-road-bike-r240-shimano-claris">Point Road-Bike</a> slot into the right sort of price brackets, my tendency being towards the road-bike to be honest as I'm actively thinking of joining a club.</p> <p>Before signing away the cash, does anyone have any experience of Mango bikes (good, bad or indifferent)? Road.cc seemed to think the road bikes were pretty good for the money... </p>
