Living with a Carrera intercity disc 8

What rack and what mud guards are those ? Just got a Polygon Urbano, and it needs everything.

These guards unsure about the rack @Jenkins will hopefully have the info

I have a set from a non disc Intercity 8 that could be made to fit but these fit well

We need pics! We've known about the Urbano being the close sibling of the ID8 and ID9 for a while but youre the first CC'er to nab one.

It looks the spitting image of my Tern Verge

I found a copy of the fold though would like to see face on one

Aye, the Urbano 5 is identical to the ID9 in every detail beyond the paint/pedals.

I would guess the Urbano 3 is the ID8 equivalent, but id want a bit more information to be sure. I think the Urbano 3 spec has been cheapened over the last year or so, Im pretty sure it used to be 8 speed.

I think the rack was just a random cheapie I picked up from Amazon, but it fitted the original InterCity Disc 9 quite nicely.

Bought an Urbano 3. I didn't want to risk adding 451 size tyres to the fleet. Color is nice, but I haven't had the chance to pump up the tyres and go out with it yet. No lights still, and since most of my cycling is in the dark, haven't had the full sunny day to take 'er out.

Keep us posted please

36 miles this morning and the Carrera went well and surprised one chap on his full carbon Fandango road bike after I sat on his back wheel for a few hundred yards before going passed him and pulling away on a hill and it took him a good mile and half to catch up and ask if the bike was electric....
