Most of what you said confirms why I prefer Fiido, also Fiido is located a bit nearer if I needed to bring it in for repair. I haven't got tools, skills or patience to fix an e-bike, for example my newish expensive e-scooter sits here broken for a year now, I don't know what to do with it...

Thanks for you information and advice. I will look into the seller you mentioned. I heard of Rad cargo bikes. I did compare then with Fiido before. Before I couldn't find a UK seller for Rad bikes. I haven't got a clue about Electrochains.

Thanks , I need something that can pull a heavy tools and can pull a trailer. And can go a long way without charging up.

Hello, Does anyone know if this is a good place to buy this bike from. https://electrochains.co.uk/products/fiido-t1-cargo-utility-electric-bike I am no good at fixing things, so would it be hard to find someone to do repairs, I'm from Chelmsford, Essex. Thanks, Darryl

Yes the E1S is currently sold out, but your suggestions have negatives too, A)The Fiido T1 isn't available yet in the UK. B) The Rad takes 5 to 8 weeks to get to the UK from what I can tell. Also being legal isn't a negative for everyone, it can be a plus if you want the power and speed. But...

Do you know a link where I can see a T1 online in a UK dealers website please? Have looked and can't find it. I thought the T1 spec wasn't UK legal from what I read. Sometimes you don't know what the problem is that needs fixing as with my e-scooter, which is sitting here broken for months...

Your one looks great for commuting and light and portable and your friends one look ok too, my reasons for buying aren't really for being portable and light. I am carrying gardening tools on and pulling a trailer. I like the Etech 1ES because it has a long range and is nippy and said to pull...

I looked at Radrunner, I couldn't find a UK dealer, I would like a UK address in case of having to send it away for repair, or any problems. I looked at the Fiido cargo bike too, again I couldn't find a UK dealer. Etech are based in Birmingham, and the 1ES model is only about £800, and says...

Hi, I was wondering if anyone has bought one of the Etech Motion ebikes, I like the ecargo bike or the E1S model. I like the price of the E1S but prefer the ecargo bike. The cargo one has 250W legal motor but says it can pull 200k. Whereas the E1S 400W can pull only 150k...

I don't like the straight handle bars, too low for me on the Faro, I will take walk around Halfords and see how it goes and see how the bike feels. There is a Giant bike store near me too, I heard they are well made, made in Taiwan, apparently better than Chinese made.

Sorry for the late reply, I fell asleep early. I was looking to buy a bike for Tuesday to use early Wednesday (5:30am), took a day off to today to look.

My old non ebike Specialized hybrid has finally broke, the back wheel rim split and split the inner tube too, too many other issues with it to be worth fixing. Now I am stuck for transport for work, I had to walk 3 miles home today (sweating like mad), been out looking for a replacement, seems...

In my opinion a reliable brand like Raleigh shouldn't really allow it to go out with such a obvious issue, they aren't exactly cheap and there are plenty of alternatives out there.

A bit off putting for me now.

Thanks for your detailed reply, put me off the Array a bit.
