I am not an expert but I thought I would mention a few things based on my buying experience a few years ago. You did not say whether you already tested both bikes. Although they seem to have a similar geometry I would ask for extended test of both to see which one fits you better and feels more...

I thought I would provide an update on the thread I started here a few years ago. A lot of you kindly came up with lots of tips and I tried a few but was still struggling with pain and as a result did not do much cycling. I was in fact going to sell my ebike as it did not make much sense to keep...

Hi I was hoping to buy a second hand trike and convert it or get a Performer electric trike if they start making one next year as implied by some videos on youtube. But yesterday I stumbled upon this thread...

Having read a bit more looks like thudbuster lt which I bought requires 14 cm of clearance whereas st about 10. Suntour about 11.

I think the cycling position feels rather comfy for me but can try different settings. Still think is is all about suspension but can't afford another bike.

Thanks. From what I read Suntour requires at least just as much clearance as Thudbuster if not more.

Hi A year ago I bought a Scott Tour 20 crossbar ebike which I enjoyed using but was not able to do it often because of back problems. I stopped cycling to work because walking seemed to be better for my back - work in IT so too much sitting. It took me a long time to get back to shape. Once the...

Yes, Freygeist is a great bike too. On the one hand having a battery hidden is great but on the other not being able to remove it might be a problem in colder climates.

It's a great looking bike designed with attention to detail. The battery looks very stylish. You might try publishing on other websites like cleantechnica, treehugger, gizmag etc. I hope you succeed. All the best!

Scott e sub tour 20 Men

Regarding the price at cyclingmadeeasy you can always ask them but I doubt there is a catch. I bought my bike from them - on sale - paying £200 less than at other shops. It's an established high street retailer with quite a big choice of bikes. I suggest you try a few before you buy.

I think it is worth pointing out that some ebikes are rated for 100kg max rider weight. I would check that before making a decision. While some dealers are still happy to recommend them for heavier cyclists I am not sure where they stand if issues crop up. Bluelabel and scott have some pretty...

So Brexit already happened?

Worth checking the listing here: http://www.pedelecs.co.uk/forum/forums/manufacturer-dealer-promotions-and-offers.13/ There is an ex display ktm on offer. Max (rider and luggage) load on ktm is lower than on scott but if you don't exceed it you could get yourself a bargain.
