    Hi Poppy, Im fine! Its just the usual thing. The wrong place at the wrong time. I'm just confined to weekend and after work riding though now. Ive got a promotion, so I have to use the car now. I still love the bike though. I wanted to ask a question though after my knee injury to anyone...

    Torq Tumble

    Thule bike rack designed for pedelecs

    With careful research you can usually find a standard bike rack that will carry an electric bike anyway. It seems very expensive!

    Pro Connect FULL REVIEW unedited.

    thanks for that return, I like the trainset concept. That makes me think differently about things really. I'm looking foreward to your own review. it feels like I've done a year on my own bike already. it's quite a relationship when you travel together to work each day.

    Pro Connect FULL REVIEW unedited.

    Yep. But never mind. I aint gonna argue about it. Its a waste of finger excercise on the keyboard. Just to note I try to take my bike around the Ladybower into castleton and through to hathersage. Have you taken your bike up Winnat's pass yet. If so, how did it cope it that steep one?

    Pro Connect FULL REVIEW unedited.

    Well to me ebikes dont really draw any conclusions. If they did, everyone would own one. They are a strange mix of different things. not a bike or a car or anything. Therefore the review seems like many parts brought together. Does anyone agree?
