Hi Peter, get a regular one with a chain, they are a lot easier to fix at the local store, the belt drive systems my mechanic said you have to dismantle the frame to change the belt. No thank you! If you're getting back into it after a fifty year lay off I'd recommend trying a bike with flat handle bars first rather than these with a harsh racing position. My back gets unhappy with the low position and blood flow gets cut off to my middle section which takes some of the pleasure out of riding.

I bought some lidls cycling shorts on the mother in laws recommendation (she used to be a top track sprinter) and they have removed the majority of the chaffing problems I was getting downstairs. There is still some penile numbness but I'm hoping that will go when I change saddles to something with a more downward tilt.

I am going to sign up for this with my wife, the traffic free nature of this makes it very tempting, she is looking forward to being able to ride around central London without worrying about taxis and buses and the such like.

Hi Adrian, is it easy to send the footage to the police in the event of an accident? Will all types of cameras do this or does it have to be a helmet camera? I have seen a VEHO Movi camera that is within my price range but do you think it will be suitable for evidence purposes. It is the £70 one https://bikesy.co.uk/tag/cameras/
