I'm not exactly a newcomer to this site having posted a few things on it already (and asked a few questions, all answered) but I've now taken the plunge and bought an electric bike! I've decided to go for the Synergie Mistral after all (a standard rear hub job, no doubt manufactured in China). A couple of things swung it, price and styling. The current price represents just ten months bus fare to me and anything that gets me off Birmingham buses has to be a good thing. As for styling, well it is unassuming, meaning it won't attract unwonted attention on the city streets. I haven't had chance to uncrate it yet, so can't comment further but will keep you informed on how it performs over the coming months.
