Incontinentia Buttocks
Veteran
Hello,
I've changed my commute from 11 mile each way road to 13 mile each way mostly on good quality towpath and 3-5 miles hideous city streets after several near death experiences.
The road bike has taken a well earned rest and my ancient Carrera Fury mtb, shod in schwalbe city jets has stepped into the breach pannier rack and all.
My commute has now changed from a nerve shredding test of wills to a very pleasant jaunt and I'm thoroughly enjoying myself but the Fury is an old tired beast and I fancy something new.
Had seriously considered an ebike but my knees are still ok so going to hold off on that for a while, and have narrowed my search down to the above bikes.
Any experiences of either? Pros, Cons? The whyte would be running 650b tyres and I've no idea what they feel like so I'm open to all advice. Both are £799 at the moment.
Thank you in advance.
