Part 2: from flat to ready to ride. 🚲 ✔️ Fitting the new tube without pinching it ✔️ The trick for getting that last stubborn bit of tyre onto the rim ✔️ Inflating to the right pressure (35 psi in this example) ✔️ Putting the wheel back on, lining up the chain and tightening the axle - without overtightening Front wheel repairs are similar, just simpler because there are no gears to work around. Missed the start? Watch Part 1 first. Captions are on. Electrify NZ, Albany, Auckland #flattyre #bikerepair #bikemaintenance #ebike #electrifynz @cubebikesnz

Nationals / NTS Track 🇳🇿🚴‍♂️ To round off our two weeks down in the deep south, our riders took to the boards to compete at the National and South Island Track Championships, followed by NTS Round 2. Our riders put in some outstanding performances across both events, bringing home some incredible results! National / South Island Track Championships 🏆 🥇 George MacDonald (U13) – 1st Nationals, 1st South Island 🥇 Escher Laufkotter (U15) – 1st Nationals, 1st South Island 🥈 Amelie Laufkotter (U16) – 4th Nationals, 2nd South Island 🥇 Noah Eden (U16) – 1st Nationals, 1st South Island 🥉 Lucas Ippolito (U17) – 3rd Nationals, 2nd South Island 🥉 Noah Johnson (U20) – 6th Nationals, 3rd South Island These are some incredible results from our young riders and a fantastic way to finish off an awesome couple of weeks of racing! NTS Round 2 🔥 Four of our riders stayed down south to compete at NTS Round 2. This event isn’t all about results, but focuses on developing skills, learning from coaches and becoming the best track racers they can be. Escher Laufkotter, Amelie Laufkotter, Noah Eden and Lucas Ippolito all had an amazing experience, with Lucas and Noah qualifying for A Grade, Escher making B Grade, and Amelie putting in a very impressive performance in her grade. A huge thank you to everyone who helped make these events possible, and especially to @bikesbyfelix for supporting our riders and keeping their bikes running speedy! 🚴‍♂️💨 What an awesome way to wrap up two weeks of racing down south! 👏

NTS Round 2 Super fun racing down south, taking away some great learnings and spending time with the boys. Big thanks to @cyclingnewzealand for putting on another great event. Thanks to @bikesbyfelix and @gregfraine for the coaching and keeping the bike running mint. Also a massive thanks to Mum and Dad for all the support and for spending almost the whole holidays down in Invercargill with me. Time for some rest, then a big summer block.

Larping the boards Secondary schools track nationals/south islands. First time ever on the indoor velodrome for me and first time in about 4 months since I was on a track bike. Fair to say I had a LOT of learning experience over the 3 days on the track. Super stoked with some of my results considering I had only learned to ride on the indoor one day beforehand. My standing 250m start was abysmal but it was an excellent way to knock out the nerves before my scratch race and my first ever ride on the track with more than 2 people. The scratch race was pretty awesome, I decided to test my luck and breakaway solo from around 10 laps to go, this went surprisingly well and I managed to put over half a lap into the field. In the end 2 riders caught me and I settled for a 3rd. Happy to also land a 3rd overall in the South Island for u19 men. This was an awesome event and a real eye opener, I may be considering a grand lock in for track racing. Big thanks to everyone who helped and supported me, Dad for yelling at me to go faster. Big thanks to Felix and Stu for getting my bike on the right gearing and making sure it won't snap in half. Big thanks to DSP, Track Cycling Nelson and Jason for lending me equipment. Big thanks to CLM Richmond for their support, allowing me to use their awesome facilities which helped me muster a bit more power on the fixie. Cheers to Kinetrix Performance Gels for their amazing supplements. Looking forward to the next couple of months with some gravel racing coming up and getting school over with. "Go hard and turn left"

Nationals / South Island Track Champs 2026 What an event! My legs were definitely feeling it after a few tough days at Yunca, but I’m extremely happy to finally say that I’m a National Champion. 1st – Nationals 1st – South Island Champs None of this would have been possible without the people behind the scenes who have helped me get here. A huge thanks to my coach @gregfraine for helping me improve so much, @stumac21 for helping me with my tactics throughout the week, and @ja.craig72 for all the work behind the scenes with bike setup and all the little things that make a difference. Thanks to @bikesbyfelix for keeping my bike running smoothly and helping make changes to get every bit of speed out of it. And last but definitely not least, my parents. Thank you for believing in me since day one and always supporting me in this sport. I couldn’t do it without you all.

Our team had an amazing time down south at the 2026 @yuncajuniortourofsouthland The 6 stage 3 day tour gave our riders some brilliant learning experiences and some excellent results. Day one of the tour was a typical Southland day, with lots of wind and rain. Day two tested our riders endurance with longer and harder stages. And finally day three was wrapped up with an exciting criterium, testing our riders bike handling skills. As well as learning heaps our riders also got some amazing results: George MacDonald U13 Our youngest rider getting 2nd on GC on his first tour Escher Laufkotter U15 4th on GC Noah Eden U17 20th on GC against some tough Australian competition Lucas Ippolito U17 15th on GC Amelie Laufkotter U17 26th on GC also against some tough Australian riders Noah Johnson U20 7th GC Great work from the team as this was the first time doing YUNCA for some of the riders. Thank you so much to our teams main sponsors: Bikes By Felix, Cube NZ and Uvex. Of course this trip would not have been possible without the parents, supporters, mechanic and coach who got our riders and equipment down to Invercargill and running smoothly.
