Well I took a chance and pulled the trigger on the frappe , also looking at this for someone else , any thoughts , anything obvious to be wary of ?https://www.planetx.co.uk/i/q/FBELCOEMOZZL/cortina-e-mozzo-ladies-e-bike

I am very interested in these two , what is the biggest difference between them , is one a better bike ? Is the Steps motor a lesser motor than the E6100 ?

Thanks for warning me off a bad investment. What about this bike ? too low end to be worth it ? Is it an example of a good chinese bike? https://imacwheel.co.uk/products/macwheel-electric-bike also looking at this https://www.planetx.co.uk/i/q/FBELFRFSC300/frappe-fsc-300-e-city-sport-bike

Thanks those both look interesting , especially considering I was about to buy a second hand kahlkoff impulse 2 bike for €1500 but was warned off it in these forums , out of curiosity why is crank driven more expensive than a wheel motor?

Hi Folks, I have a Kahlkoff pedelec that has play in the crank arms . Were it a regular bike i'd assume the BB had gone and would replace. However as you know it has an impulse motor down there . Is it possible for me to open the motor and replace the bottom bracket bearings in there ?Could...
