Cool. I have 35 mm landcruisers on the bike at the moment.

I am currently using 700x37 Schwalbe land Cruiser, no problem at all.

Best BSO I've ever seen.

Best BSO I've ever seen.

Shimano Claris, rack and guard mounts, internal cable routing and disc brakes. Cracking deal with BC discount!

Just a shame the range was a flop as they have not brought out a 2017 range as they have incorporated it back into the carrera range.

I am hurt by your comment.
When the 13 was released back in 2015, the price was £499, hardly a BSO
Halfords have stopped making the brand, and getting rid of the stock, so it's a great bargain to be had.

Not too wide on 25 tires??

They would have plenty room , for neatness I would go down to the 35mm guards. Do you have clearance for 45mm on your bike ? Not much room on my CX , 45 would not fit looking at it ?

That's a very elitist statement. The bike may be the best that someone can afford

This seems a bargain, but I don't think it has rack mounts

P clips. Probably won't take full mudguards either

Tredz are doing £250 off £1500. I've been banging on about the Kona Roadhouse since I bought one a few months ago. A cracking bike, 853 frame, Shimano hydraulic discs and decent finishing kit. Add £56 worth of clothing / consumables and it becomes £1250. There's always a pop-up offering a fiver off on Tredz website, plus quidco (another 2% off) and it becomes round about £1200. I'd challenge anyone to find an 853 framed bike with a similar specification for anywhere near that. Only available in smaller sizes now:

Picked up a set of 42mm SKS Bluemels from Decathlon in Stockport this afternoon reduced to £12.99. They seemed to have a few in stock. Bargain

Yes, i bought a pair a few weeks ago. Very nice. Carefully selected so that I could fit some nice 32mm tyres. Then realised that the rims on that bike won't take more than 28 anyway . Still, the guards, the bike and the 28mm tyres are still very nice.

Not a bad price for a workaday city light.

Also handy if you have others in the range for a spare mount - or a spare back - though a nice light I do find that the backs are prone to breaking if dropped - have done it to two - so this back is now on a 60 lux front - nice that all is swappable - hope the range continues but knowing the bike industry, quite probably not.

Yes I know they have been available for less.

Posted on HUKD, but for those with a more feminine figure, the Endura Womens Photon packable jacket for less than a tenner from CRC:

Worth knowing Planet X have the Smart light range on offer, from about £5 for both front and £3 for rear, plus postage.

Spare parts are extremely cheap too,which is useful considering how fragile their designs are.
The Phaart 3W is a good alternative to a Smart, but there, despite a more robust shell, doing battery replacement you need to be careful.

Considering the Smart light offer above this may be better value - a Smart 60 watt front plus rear set for £14.99

I ran two of these sets on PBP as my lights, with a Hope Vision 1 for dark lanes, and had no issues.
