The spat between Farage and Junkers got me thinking. We voted by referendum to leave the EU,but we didn't say when we would leave. Even Boris is back-pedalling and in no hurry to trigger Article 50,the leave start button. Our Parliament has 450 remainers out of 650,even with the whip it is not...

The second issue of Watt Bike magazine,inside Twist and Go magazine is now on the shelves,it has a test on the Kudos Tornado mountain style bike and the G-Tech bike,plus others. KudosDave

if you Google G-Tech electric bike,you come up with perhaps 30 reviews from the Mail,Telegraph,Metro etc who all have clearly regurgated the G-tech marketing spiel but it's obvious not one has ridden the bike any distance.....I did find it amusing when one tester said ' G-tech have cleverly...

There is a new electric bike magazine,named Watt Bike. The publisher has cleverly inserted it inside the magazine Twist and Go. I say cleverly because he has avoided the high cost of paying for Smiths shelf space by getting 2 mags in the place of one. I have avoided advertising in previous...

It is taking longer than we would have wished to ship our latest models but some members are asking what type of bike is the latest Kudos models to determine whether they are of interest. Their is an embargo on full release but the following should give some idea of the type of bike....we have...

Hopefully this thread won't be moved because the idea is to produce a road legal powerful electric bicycle. My feeling is that the powerful bicycles are bought because owners want speed and power but still want the product to look like a bicycle not like a scooter or moped. Am interested in...

There are so many dealers advertising Kalkhoff,Stromer,Bulls S-class e-bikes in the UK. All these dealers make a reference to registering these bikes.....register as a light moped,just register with the DVLA,easily registered,quotes appear on their websites. There must be hundreds in use on UK...

Unfortunately the thread 'best bike for hill climbing,Kalkhoff alternative ' Is now closed to further postings,which is a shame because the OP must have felt very confused after all the spear throwing. The OP wanted a bike for his wife,with a throttle,she suffers from tired legs....the obvious...

One of my employees rode the Kudos Rapide 108 miles and still had 20% battery remaining,must remember to update the publicity blurb next time to 'Kudos Rapide up to 110 miles range' KudosDave

What the authorities won't tell you about the floods in Cumbria....by Philip Walling I am sure if your house is flooded you have the compensation that you are looking after the freshwater mussel. Amazing reading but I am not surprised. KudosDave

I moved this thread to a more popular part of the forum because I felt it was of such general interest and varying views would be valid. It came from a forum member who thought £800 was a lot of money to pay for an everyday commuter bike. Your comment £800 is a lot of money for an e-bike. Dont...

So much chat about throttles banned from 1/1/2016. Does anyone know whether we finally signed up to EN15194? KudosDave

Keep it simple stupid. There is a lot to be said to keeping these e-bikes as simple and accessible as possible. The more complexity that we ask of these bikes,the more failure is likely and the more difficult it is to sort out the problem. I must say I am impressed by the few failures we have...

All you guys who are not worried about illegality might as well do the job properly. The S-class is for wimps...there is no degree of illegality,there is only legal or not legal so why not the Elmoto HR-1.... Max speed....35kph Weight.....22kg Range.....100kms Battery.....36v x 9Ah,11.25 Ah,15.5...

The catalyst to make this thread was Johnathan's comment that member Creo needed a full e-bike. I must say that I have often used the phrase e-bike but actually the difference in the dictionary definitions is at the root of 90% of the conversations on this forum. A Pedelec 'is a bicycle where...

Before I comment I believe that we are throwing all sorts of rubbish into the atmosphere and I always get a sore throat every time I go to Guangzhou in China,Beijing looks worse smog so I am very supportive of cleaning up the air. Some of us I am sure remember the awful London smogs on the...

Can I suggest that all disabled people write to their MP to say that the government taking away throttles on pedelecs has seriously affected your cycling. Also pointing out that linking throttles to type approval,without providing it easy for e-bike suppliers to achieve type approval was lack of...

We are auctioning our fleet of Kudos test bikes on e-bay....these bikes have had very little use,virtually new bikes,the first are Kudos Rapide and Sonata,our flagship bikes....these bikes were built with BPM hi torq motors,Tectra hydraulic brakes,30-speed Shimano Deore gears,top quality guards...

At the NEC cycle show i asked a few of my competitors as to what they are intending after 15 mph throttles are banned after 1 January 2016( note we will still be able to sell e-bikes with 4 mph throttles),the response seemed very negative,mostly 'don't know'. I only have 1 bike with a full speed...
