News bot Posted February 26, 2020 Share Titan Racing have introduced a new range of commuter bikes labelled under their Transporter Range. These bikes are aimed at doing one job well and that’s commuting in style. Long gone are the days when a commuter bike had to be your old 26” and whilst we do have the option of going single speed, no one is hating gears on that final climb back home after a long day at the office.Click here to view the article Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jewbacca Posted February 26, 2020 Share It says 'While there is the option of going single speed'... Does the bike have an EBB? Or are you saying that 'the option' is there on other bikes but the new Titan has gears because of hills? Either way it looks really rad and at that price point I see a few of these getting some drop bars...... Hilton. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shebeen Posted February 26, 2020 Share drop the front derailleur! why? uh mean i know why, but WHY? fd are cheap and they work.bikes like this will have a 8 or 9spd system.2x8 or 2x9 is cheaper than 1x11 and will have better range Hairy, Long Wheel Base, Oufy MTB (Roadie) and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Long Wheel Base Posted February 26, 2020 Share They should have gotten really clever and put a compartment of sorts somewhere for a light battery(and possibly other spares as well). One thing I hate is strapping my batteries to my frame. I have modified a bottle so that the battery is inside the bottle and can't get wet. The plug is fixed into the spout and all I do is plug the light side into the spout(I use the seat post bottle cage for this). My wire is then secured to my rear brake hose so I don't have wire wrapped around the frame anywhere. There is very little I can't fix with the tools I carry on my commute and they all concealed somewhere to my bike. Some less obvious than I would like unfortunately as I still want a clean looking bike. Oufy MTB (Roadie) and samson99 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please can you post some photos of the light and how mounted (including the wires). in the commuter challenge thread Mounting the battery is also my pet peeve.

Long Wheel Base Posted February 27, 2020 Share A hub dynamo! Good idea, but that would have pushed the price up. Maybe have a third model with extras like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
