Can you help?
I have this idea forming in my head (don’t tell chitty!) that I might be able to design the perfect commuter bike (for me).
I'm not talking "dream machine" here but a really practical, ultra low maintenance bike with sufficient gearing and braking to allow year round long distance commuting (40 miles plus) per day with minimal "paraphernalia" and almost zero maintenance
I've recently been riding without a ruck sack and it has occurred to me that the majority of the sack is filled with repair and maintenance gear
Spare tubes
Puncture repair kit
Tyre levers
Spare batteries
Pliers
Pump
Chain tool
Spanners
Allen key set
So if you ride (a fair distance say 10 miles plus) with any of the following can you let me know as I would like to PM you some questions;
Solid tyres
Belt drive system
Hub gears
Trek Soho
Thanks
