PowaCycle Salisbury Owner Reviews

[rsscott]

Reviewer: Whispering Al

Purchased From: The Electric Transport Shop

Purchase Price: £490

Time Owned: 4 Weeks

Local Terrain: Some Minor Hills

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Strengths:
Looks and rides like a normal bike. Comes with mudguards, rack and stand so can be used for commuting out of the box. Very little to do when it arrived - insert handlebars, fix pedals and charge the battery. Price is pretty reasonable considering the spec and the competition.


----------------------------------------------------------------------
Weaknesses:
Heavier than a normal bike (though not by some electric bike standards). The battery charge indicator is very difficult to see when riding. The mode switch has three positions but two are actually the same. There are some minor finish issues - a rough edge to the mode switch for example.


----------------------------------------------------------------------
Summary:
Overall I think the bike is a good compromise and suits my needs (a short commute to the train station) very well. It is useable straight out of the box and looks pretty much like a standard bike. The price is pretty good too.
