Never had a problem wearing my headcam on either my bike or my horse. I used to wear a little bullet one which was very discreet, now use a gopro still not had any problems. Don't really care if I do tbh. Once when on my horse I did have a very angry man waving a metal bar around and ranting at...

My thoughts exactly. Makes life so much easier.

I was once told by someone that "bikes were designed for exercise". Hmm funny I could have sworn they were designed as a mode of transport.

Rear lights, I have one attached to the battery handle and another attached to the rack. Again the one on the rack needed a bit of husband magic to make it fit. What would I do without him :)

It just clears the housing. I have been unable to use my old panniers that I had for my 26" wheel bike. Have to have smaller ones. I don't strap anything to the top of the rack, just use the panniers. Wont get a lot of shopping in them but have a basket as well.

I have one en route with TNT as I type due to arrive 21st. The supplier had to ask for more shipping costs as TNT are the only company that will ship them.

Thankyou for all the helpful and some not so helpful replies. My bike is used daily and put on charge overnight. Who in their right minds would expect a £400 bike to perform like a £1500 bike? Most of the running cost links seem to think replacing a battery every 2yrs plus is "usual" so...

I have had my cheapo tesco hopper for 5 months. It has done the job I bought it for and was a trial to see if I actually used an electric bike before going ahead and splashing out on a more expensive bike. My plan had been to use it to break even with costs vs using my car then selling it for...

I have a tesco hopper. The manual said to get three green lights on the battery when it's fully charged. Mine is same as yours so I contacted Avocet who are the manufacturers. this is the reply

I'm also in Nottingham. There is an ebike shop in Long Eaton. If I was spending that kind of money I would want to try first. powered bikes
