Well it's a nice colour...

Another lazy blip, sorry.

Earlier than advertised, the new e-bike turned up today. It was carefully looked over (noting a minor cosmetic issue) and assembled. Happily it showed a full charge, and so with Janet on Charlie's Specialised Hard Rock we set off for a test ride.

Good things: it goes like a rocket with barely a twitch of the pedals even in the lowest setting. Charfield Hill was just laughed at, and even the taxing hill up to North Nibley was achievable without leaving the (quite comfy) seat. Janet was not amused...

Not so good... it was almost instantly apparent that the crank shaft is loose, leading to an audible click when pedalling energetically. When I got home I made a short video, that will form the basis for a conversation on Monday.

It may be a simple fix, or... it might be going back.
