I bet you were in the woods when you touched his bad boy?
Nah, we were in the shed up the garden, where Steve started talking French to me (LaPierre overvolt) and asked me if I wanted to sit on it. :eek:

I declined, I'm not ready for that kind of thing yet. :)

Anyway, there's no point test driving the Bugatti Veyron, if you're buying the Trabant. :D

To be fair to Steve, the bike I bought was immaculate (I can see that now that I've got it manky). It's a great build. Cheers Steve.

I've done over 260 miles on it so far. I'm using it 3 times a day (30 miles or so). My other bike can go a lot faster, however, this being a lighter bike, lets me slow down and practice a lot more technical manoeuvres. Although, it's plenty fast enough too.

As for 'Can ebikes jump?' I think you have to get the transition right. Smooth from ground to air to ground. Jolting is the enemy. :mad:

trust me dont jump it with hub motors, it will end in disaster the wheel will bend/snap in half on heavy impacts.
