Another quick update this evening (2 in one day!) Ian from Storck dropped me an email tonight with this link ... Storck Raddar - Storck Raddar Electric Bikes - News - EX DEMO EBIKE SALE - Prices from £1,899 Given what's been said by everyone, and from what i've tried already i think i've...

Just had a look at onbike on line, they look good but its a 4 hour drive each way ... bit too far for me. thanks for the idea :)

thanks - glad theyve changed it, it sounds better if they've put less options in it

Update time! So I didn’t have much luck in finding a bike shop in the lakes that was open on a Sunday, although I didn’t really do a lot of planning, I just popped my head into one or two hoping they had some in stock. I ended up taking the family to Grizedale forest for a bit of fresh...

This sounds like a hoot! ... Now i've got even more motivation to get my bike sorted, count me in.

Quick update : Still havent had time to nip to shields to see the oxygens, however i'm staying in the lake district this weekend so i'm on the hunt for a Bosch to try tomorrow. I just hope there are some bike shops open on a sunday... thanks for everyone's feedback and help:D

Thanks Storcker, I'll keep that in mind. I think that if i go for the Storck i might swap the tyres for the marathon cross, Ian did say he would be happy to swap them over to get the bike right for me.

Update time! So I popped up to the chaps in Gateshead to see what they had in their sale and find out what the fuss was about. First impressions: the shop is on a business park, and not your normal retail unit like a few people have commented. The showrooms on the first floor and like...

Thanks RobF You've hit the nail on the head i want a quality bike first, then decent electric kit second. I want a really good quality bike, that can assist me. It seems like a false economy to have an expensive high quality electric kit, but adding it to a cheap bike. Isnt that like...

thanks D8veh, I'm quite taken by the design of the Neo, jsut need to find somewhere to try one. I guess im lucky that Storck HQ is up the road, so im going to head intoday and see what they have in the sale

Hi Everyone, Thanks for the help, questions, pointers ... and places to eat in Brighton (!?) :P So answering the questions in order they were asked! Kudos – Not interested in Chinese products, i’ve had bad experiences in the past with one product or another. I’ve never been able to...

Does anyone know what the frame quality is like? from my past experience in the motor trade ive found that shiny bits are nice but if the chassis isnt up to scratch then its not worth it. As the famous saying goes? "you cant polish a T#rd but .... but you can sprinkle it in glitter" Nb - i'm...

As a first time buyer i think this is a brilliant idea ! At the moment im trying to find my first ebike and finding it difficult going through suppliers websites to compare specs....The sooner this is ready the better!

Hi Everyone, Long term “guest” first time poster! Bit of background – I’ve worked in the motor industry for 40 or so years and have a real passion for cars, technology, gadgets ...much to my wife’s dismay! Couple that with a love of real ale and a hearty meal and you’ve got the recipe...
