Low maintenance bikes?
Discussion
I started cycling about 5 years ago, when a job change to a company about 10 miles from home made it feasible. I'm fully converted the rest is history, the 12,000 pa that I used to do in the car has been replaced by 6000 pa on the bike. Love it, and no going back ...but ... I wish that bikes didn't require so much regular maintenance and parts replacement! When I used the car, I could drive it for a whole year without doing any maintenance. I'd love an equivalent bike that could go the same distance. No doubt that it would be expensive, but does such a thing exist? Gravel bike geometery, belt drive, CVT transmission, runflats?

That looks great, and not as expensive as I thought, thanks. Up until autumn last year I was using an Orbea gain D31 on a cross country route to work. When it got too wet/muddy I sold the Orbea and switched to a road bike, which I've used all through winter. I have a new gain D30 X1 scheduled for delivery any day now ... I'm wondering if I actually need an e-bike now, may be better off switching to something like the shand bike.
