    2 Wheel drive ?

    I realise this could be a very silly question but could you have a motor on the front wheel as well as the back wheel or would steering be a problem, if not on two wheels could you do it on a tricycle, The reason i ask is that i live close to epping forest and think it could be fun riding it in...

    What's going on with e-cars?

    To go slightly off subject but sticking with are we being conned, ive been looking on youtube at free energy, i may be naive but it seems that we could have been enjoying free energy for some time now, The big companies control everything , including the government, they just stamp on anything...

    Cube reaction hybrid pro29, first impressions

    Interested to hear you say you felt like a passenger on your old bike, I feel a bit like that on my bike (e voyager) i think it may be because the back wheel is set back a good six inches more than a normal bike, just doesnt feel right.

    Why so few Ebikes

    Speaking of Halfords i cant say i was that impressed with their Chingford branch, when i was at the main paydesk the girl serving was dealing with a customer on the phone while the line behind me steadily grew, i then went upstairs to have some work done on my bike and waited 15 minutes to be...

    One law for the rich etc

    Going back to fleccs original point of the rich taking the micky, frankly it makes me feel like a mug, when i see politicians and the rich getting away with it what with their expenses, tax avoidance etc, the list is endless...

    Why so few Ebikes

    I asked in Halfords how well they sell, the assistant said they dont, due to lack of interest from Halfords, they dont seem to push them at all, there were none on view in the store at Chingford, as Arbol says perhaps there is some other reason, however i do feel they (halfords) are missing a trick.
