Not had my two pennies worth for a while - but the helmet issue has always caught my attention - I guess i don't wear one for comfort and vanity reasons - and to be honest - I'd' have had bought a 125 cc bike for commuting rather then my easyglider if helmets were compulsory on ebikes. Being a...

Hi, Dark nights are coming - I want to supplement the front light on my gazelle easyglider. Currently considering a Cyclepro 2.4w dual spot halogen light (rechargeable headlight) on offer at argos for just over £20. Any other suggestions? - words of advise? ps Hi to Davidw - who I...

Hi Haku I tracked down an annoying rattle on my bike using a large blob of blu-tak -easy and worked a treat! Steve H.

Hi It's big, heavy and expensive but my gazelle easyglider gets me to work and back over the route shown below quite happily. It's a solid bike that came with all the bells and whistles and hasn't let me down in the first few months I often feel like it should go faster on the flat...

Hi David Sorry to hear about your puncture. I got one in my rear wheel 2 weeks ago. A local bike shop wouldn't attempt it so I took it back to the shop in York. (only 4 hours late for work that day! ) They were very helpful and only charged £3.25 for a new inner tube. A problem I had...

Hi All, Can anyone give me some advise re adjusting roller brakes - ie what exactly should I be doing? I took my new gazelle easyglider back to the dealer for its 1st check up and they give it back to me with the front brake "tightened up" - but when i rode it for the first time after i...

Hi Mary Hi Mary have a look here Gazelle - United Kingdom I'm just 1 month into Easy Glider ownership if you've got any specific questions? Steve

Hi Mandy Commiserations, Got pretty soaked myself on Tuesday - my commute is 8 miles each way - but my philosophy is just to wear the minimum - light waterproof jacket and shorts - and have an change of clothes waiting at work. I'm a pretty fussy glasses wearer too - but again - I rinse...

Hi Musicbooks, I'm having the same issues at the moment, having just started commuting to work on my new bike. Last week I arrived at work dripping - wearing a cotton polo shirt under a "breathable" cycling jacket that the bike shop sold me with my bke. However i went for a ten mile...

Hi Footie Have you tried the sanoodi website? it easily creates "elevation" graphs showing just how steep routes are. Steve

Thanks for the link to sanoodi Flecc - that's just what I was looking for - This is the graph for my route to work!

Thanks for that Flecc - something to think about as I pedal Home tonight! A quick question? - on the Agatu review you included some graphs showing gradients covered - is there an easy way to produce these or was it a case of an OS map and a pencil?

Hi GCI Hi GCI, Nice to see your arrival. I collected a brand new Gazelle Easyglider from York last Sunday and have been using it daily this week. I'm still formulating a variety of questions and observations that I'll post on the forum at some point. If anyone has any specific...

Thanks Flecc - Hadn't realised that I'd got such close company!

Did it! Well the test ride swung it and I've now got a brand new Gazelle Easyglider in my front porch. Had to transport it back via two trains and then a fairly painfull 1st ride up several hills from the train station. There's no doubt that it's a heavy (not so little) so'n'so but it got...
