Hi John, Samways Cycles in Ashbourne road, Derby, are a large cycle shop who stock a few ebike brands. They are also part of the cycle to work scheme. Well worth a look as not far from you at all. Kind regards Lloyd

Just to remind everyone about the Big Electric Bike Ride taking place this weekend, 14th-15th May in Bristol. Potential e-bike purchasers who are shopping for a bike this weekend may want to pop down to Bristol, where a fleet of the latest Raleigh electric bikes will be available free to demo...

Thans Kitchenman. As for mounting tips, we used the chest harness mount for some of the onboard shots, and the adhesive mount for the rest. The chest mount offered zero vibration, and a very good view of the battery display etc whilst riding. We then stuck one camera to the...

Thankyou NRG. We have certainly worked very hard on these bikes for the past year! The feedback from all who have ridden it has been very positive so far, which is why I am personally so excited about our demo days that are coming up this year! Now all we need is for this wonderful...

The Velo models do feature hub motors, and the Motor in Question is the LBH brushless, sensored. The motor is very quiet during operation, and offers low drag resistance. None of our bikes feature throttles. We use a TMM4 torque sensor, with 3 modes of assistance and an LCD display. We have...

According to google maps, about 2-3 miles. You probably want to take the bike out for a good 20-30mins. As for colour, it is a metallic champagne, definately not yellow. Looks even nicer in the flesh than on a screen. The Trail is a pearlescent white too, which looks rather spiffing up close...

The RRP on those is £400 currently.

Also Pennyfarthing, I have checked with Martin from our Petersfield dealer, and he says that the town square immediate area is quite flat I'm afraid.

Yes, we haven't officially launched the Velo range yet, as the first shipment is on it's way over to us. We have launched them to our dealers, so you may see some images appear on websites across the UK. Our website will be having a major overhaul, and all 2011 models featured as soon as the...

I will indeed. I am working on a mini-roadshow this year, which will visit most areas in the UK with free demo bikes, and incorporate group ebike rides for owners of any ebike brand. These will be led by British Cycling qualified ride leaders. I have confirmed the dates so far, and will be...

Hi Ed, We will be doing test days all over the UK, it's just that Petersfield is the first of many this year! We have a "Big Electric Bike Ride" planned for Sherwood Pines later in the year. Exact dates are TBC at present, but I'll make sure we book the sun.
