Its cold and frosty today so it got me thinking that maybe because of all this e-bike usage We are heading towards an ice age,I feel a bit guilty about this because of the thousands Kudos e-bikes on the road. As an antidote to all my green credentials I feel that I should try to balance back to...

I must say that I am not affected by the building of HS2 but am sympathetic to those whose lives will be affected by the wrecking of our countryside building HS2. Anyone who has travelled from Kent up to London on HS1 or travelled on the Eurostar, is surprised that they get quick to St...

Before starting this thread I should say I am not personally affected by any of these choices. I understand that the government are today announcing their choice,but after that parliament has to vote,then it has to go through planning applications/appeals,the runway could be many years ahead. I...

We have highlighted this offence on this forum before but now the CAA is tightening up on lithium battery shipment by air. The batteries involved are small mobile phone batteries not the big Ah that we use in our e-bikes. These batteries were spotted by Royal Mail,sent through the normal postal...

If the UK achieves a free trade deal with China and the US,and the EU looks on the UK as a satellite of both countries,maintaining the tarif and anti dumping duties (68% on bicycles)then Dover could be the smuggling capital into the EU from the UK,French customs will be very busy. KudosDave

Theresa May has confirmed she will now rule Britain as a dictator, after lawyers gave her exactly the same legal opinion that she paid them to provide. The Prime Minister said: “I have always believed that parliament doesn’t need to be consulted when making the most significant constitutional...

We have available a limited number of ex-demonstrator bikes available at VERY cheap prices, all with very low mileage. They have all been put through our workshop to check and adjust operation and safety. All are in very good condition, these bikes are not new and may show some small blemishes...

Firstly I thought Rio did a wonderful job under difficult circumstances and a low budget. Us Brits in the past had a tendency to fail at the 11th hour(football penalties) but somehow we have a much more confident and professional attitude to winning,such that the Italians accused us of over...

I am surprised how many e-bike suppliers found it necessary to implement price rises so quickly after Brexit. However,I am receiving on a daily basis rises between 7-11% on any imported product,whether from dollar or euro currency companies,the norm seems 10%. I have decided to supply from stock...

The finish in the men's and ladies races were very similar,with crashes on the dangerous downhill and all decided by a few metres at the line, I thought exciting to watch. I must say with all the controversy running up to the Rio Olympics the sport has been fantastic to watch and the...

The G-tech has had such an intensive advertising campaign,I wonder what pedelec members think of what a small manufacturer can achieve in competition? What do Pedelec members think of the pros and cons between these e-bikes? The specs of both bikes are readily available on the respective...

Have just read on the Bike Europe site that Raleigh are increasing prices by 10% as a result of the currency depreciation due to Brexit,effective August 1. Most bike parts are priced in dollars so that was inevitable. Don't know whether that includes Haibike,part of the Raleigh group. It is...

i have been PM'd by several Pedelec members as to whether a full speed throttle is fitted to the new Kudos K16. We have decided to supply the bike with a twist throttle but not fitted,it is a simple matter to assemble the throttle to the bike. The bike comes with instructions how to assemble...

I have been informed by some Chinese suppliers that they have been ordered to cease production for most of August and early September,whilst the G20 meeting is happening in Hangzhou. Some of these suppliers are in Ningbo and further,it seems that the government have drawn a 200 mile radius from...

On the TV I thought she came over as a very nasty person with a massive chip on her shoulder,certainly not PM material. KudosDave

What a great day for British Sport. Chris Froome retains the yellow jersey in the Tour de France. Lewis Hamilton wins the British Grand Prix. Andy Murray wins the Wimbledon Men's Singles. Well done, KudosDave

I was speaking with one of my suppliers today,an educated guy,he was and still is so badly informed about the referendum... 1. He didn't know that the referendum had no legal power,it was purely advisory. 2. He didn't know that only parliament could trigger Article 50,the leave mechanism. 3. He...
