I don't do any sizes - I'm merely a (very) satisfied customer.

They do make dobbin stuff - for horse and rider

For ultimate visibility, check out the Proviz 360+ range. Not only is it a top product, their customer service is second to none - http://terrygibson.blogspot.co.uk/2016/04/urban-cyclingcommuting-in-london.html They also have a coloured version on kickstarter...

I second the suggestion to get a box rather than bag. I specified the box with my Panda kit and it fits neatly on the rear of the seat tube in the triangle between the mudguard, the seat stays and the seat tube. It's discreet and with the addition of insulating tape round the join has been...

Worth getting in touch with Panda http://www.pandaebikes.com/- I can confirm a "yes" to 6/7 of your questions. My answers inside your quoted post below. Ollie and Maria at Panda have been promptly responsive to any of my queries and I would happily recommend based on my experience.

I agree with the advice here about a mono laser - but I'd stick with the Canon brand if I were you - there are i-SENSYS models around the £100 mark

Rob - My 250w front hub kit came from Panda for my Dawes Hybrid and I have been delighted with their service both before and after purchase.

Here's my blog post on Torque Arms - very much a "work it out for yourself" post rather than an expert position - but it may help http://terrygibson.blogspot.co.uk/2016/02/converting-my-dawes-sonoran-to-e-bike_19.html

You spurred me into action - done :D

You're right, originally had 700x32 tyres - now 700x37. The mudguard clearance on the rear is fine but was a bit tight on the front and kept rubbing. Just a matter of getting round to fitting something suitable.

Further to my earlier posts asking inane questions in the "What shall I buy" sub-forum, here's a link to my blog detailing the conversion of my Dawes Sonoran with a Panda front hub motor kit. I've only ridden a few miles so far - I'll write more once I have completed my 10 mile commute into...

Following their post offering a January discount on their kits, I looked at their website offering. Although my plan up to now had been to buy a new e-bike, their price appears compelling enough to allow me to "dip my toe in the water" by converting my Dawes Sonoran in a manner that would...

Can't argue with that John - although I am concious that I don't want to be a time-waster. I have really only been testing for how the bike(s) pull away from a standing start and how they pull up a short hill. I really need to understand how they behave on the flat especially at or near the...

OK, the shortlist's up to three and now includes the Heinzamnn Pan E-TR (thanks for the test ride John). So as others have suggested I widen my search, I'm ready to listen to suggestions - but unlike before when I hadn't even ridden a pedelec I now have some points of reference - so I have a...

I knew I'd find it ! How many forum members does it takes to change a light bulb? 1 to change the light bulb and to post that the light bulb has been changed 14 to share similar experiences of changing light bulbs and how the light bulb could have been changed differently 7 to caution about...
