    New Gtech ebike

    As has been mentioned above Onbike is only 3.3 miles (according to Google maps) from gtech hq it has got to be worth popping in to compare the many different types of ebikes that Onbike stock, although I have not bought from Onbike they have serviced my bike and the guys are very helpful and...

    Should I change my teeth? Designer Daimler Mercedes Benz Smart eBike

    Can we assume that the 20 tooth belt /pulley that gives you the potential of more performance comes from AMG the performance division of Mercedes-Benz? Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk

    Should we be suprised by the Brexit victory?

    I guess the lesson to be learned here is that the vast majority of any country's population is made up of regular, Decent run of the mill folks who just tend to keep their heads down and make the best life they can for themselves and their families and will only be pushed so far before standing...

    Should we be suprised by the Brexit victory?

    Like many people I suspect ,I was surprised when I woke up this morning to find that the leavers had won. The question I have been asking myself today is should I have been surprised? When I googled a few facts it has become fairly obvious that I shouldn't be surprised at all. In last years...

    Mopeds with large wheels.

    As mine was post 77 it was restricted to 30 mph but it had regular footrests and not pedals, luckily for us the restriction technology was very basic, a restricted bore in the exhaust so like all my mates the first thing i did after the running in service was to pop into the local breakers and...

    Mopeds with large wheels.

    I was lucky enough to buy a brand new fs1e/dx in August 1979 when I was 16 it was £370, iam absolutely staggered at how much a restored one is going for now. It was a great little bike which I still have fond memories of now. Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk

    A 30mph crash fatality in something not tested or safe..

    @soundwave, it's worse than that.... The latest is that you have to attend a 24 hour lecture by 2 (unnamed) pedelec members, complete with PowerPoint presentation and with of course an attendant priest to try to save your soul from eternal damnation Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk

    As a matter of fact, yes I have explained the legal status to them and indeed did show a couple of them some of the threads on here, their response was pretty unambiguous, they didn't give a *, they pointed out that they asked me to help out not the other way around. I understand where you are...

    Thank you for taking the time to do this review and please don't ever worry about being ridiculed or shot down. Everyone has their own opinion about which bike is best /prettiest /most powerful etc etc but what we as members of this forum really need is real world tests from people who actually...
