    Storck Raddar Multitask...some observations

    But that is Exactly what it does do....and some. Ask David Miall from Wisper and any other e-bike brand manager who has ridden one and have the experience to comment. Plus the countless reviews written by Cycling Journalist around the world. [removed]

    Storck Raddar Multitask...some observations

    Good Morning, Thank you Bob for your interesting report. I can make an assumption that this bike was loaned to you by your local Storck Dealer in Swindon, is this correct ? I would like to clarify a couple of your points: Bike 2 sizes too small: This of course will effect the way the bike bike...

    first ride out on Storck Raddar.....

    I'm glad you are enjoying your bike Dave and also some great countryside. As many have discussed here, the Storck Raddar may not fit the bill for everyone for their riding requirements, thats why there is so much choice out there. In terms of value for money, you really need to take into...

    £3K to spend, what would you recommend?

    If I may reply here that the Storck Raddar does offer up to 10% regen back to the battery whilst freewheeling (and therefore extending the range).

    £3K to spend, what would you recommend?

    Good Morning: Storck Raddar bikes are built to a high degree of function rather than built to a Price point. Hence Shimano Hydraulic disc brakes. Much more efficient than rim brakes and more progressive than cable disc brakes. You are correct with the information about the battery. Many testers...

    Storck Raddar

    This has set me thinking :confused: I have ridden our Storck Multitask and Multiroad bike many times in all sorts of condition. My favourite have been in the Lake District. In all the riding I have done on our Raddar drive bikes, I have found very little drag from the regen system we have when...

    Storck Raddar

    OK Indalo, Please allow me to put a few facts straight. The Storck Raddar Multitask RSP is £2499 Hardly £3,000. The Raddar Raddar Motor is built under license to 3rd Party Manufactures. Although similar looking, (some of which have been referenced on this thread) the motors are NOT the same...

    Is there any hub drive bike worth paying more than £1700?

    To be honest, it's probably worth you contacting ATB Sales yourself to get this information :-)

    Is there any hub drive bike worth paying more than £1700?

    I worked for ATB Sales back in 1984 long before the Mezzo brand. I was the Northern Sales Rep for 9 years with Marin Mountain Bikes, I then set up SCOTT Sports in 1994 and ran that for 15 years. I still have friends and contacts at ATB Sales but have not really followed the latest progress of...

    Is there any hub drive bike worth paying more than £1700?

    The whole e-bike market here in the UK reminds me of what the early Mountain Bike market was like when it first started. I used to work for ATB sales travelling the north trying to convince Real Bicycle shops that they could sell a Marin Mountain Bike at £300. The highest price that they felt...

    Birmingham Bike Show

    Hi Bob. It did get rather busy from the moment the doors opened, to finish. Inter-company fun, banter and a little bit of customer espionage when our backs are turned.....all part of the Cycle Trade. (I have been involved for the past 28 years). The Freego guys are very knowledgeable...... and...

    Birmingham Bike Show

    We have just returned from The Cycle Show in Birmingham (rather shattered) and I have to say a number of points: General Enquiries from Public: The level of interest and questions asked at the show were much more informed than ever before. Considerably larger number of enquiries too and it was...

    Storck add bosch crank drive to ebike range!

    We are expecting the Storck Mulktitask Bosch bike to weigh similar to the Multitask Raddar bike, around 18.5 kgs for a small frame. This will be confirmed by the time we get to The Cycle show at the NEC. There are a few minor tweeks to be made to the Multitask frame for the Bosch system, then...
