    Dilemma!!

    That's a tough price point for lightweight bikes. You might consider a kit added to a traditional bike, or, as you say, look for 2nd hand. Halfords do good offers from time to time on their Crossfire and Crossfuse electrics and membership of Cycle Association can get further discount, but...

    Dilemma!!

    Well, I guess it was a terrible joke... To reduce weight gets expensive, but lighter bikes are available. To shave 5kgs probably also means reducing range by 15 miles on top of costing £500+ more, per bike. Instead, the combined cost of a tow bar and rack is likely £800+ What's your budget for...

    Dilemma!!

    And when you phoned Emma, what did she say? Seriously, those 4 bikes = less than 40kgs is remarkable. Or am I not understanding your dial emma? Are you asking for recommendations for even lighter bikes or more rugged rack?

    News: Juicy partners with Neomouv

    You could take a sneaky look at Ticket in the New Mills workshop, yes - destined for the Test Ride track at the bike show. The price is not released yet (all of a sudden we have to agree details with our French colleagues), but it should attract attention at the NEC.

    Another newbie looking for advice please!

    "Before you buy you really should try" - all combinations of rider plus bike are unique and can be quite a different experience for each individual. You'd be welcome to try at any of our stockists in the West Country - I can recommend Devon Cycle Hire in particular for a nice day out, not too...

    Q128 motor strip down

    Much more likely that one of the connectors along the cable to the motor is loose, or the external cable is damaged. Could simply be the plug to the motor is loose. I wouldn't start stripping down the motor until you've first checked cables for damage and that connectors are tight at the...

    Batribikes

    If you're serious then the UK Cycle Show at the NEC will soon be here. Batribike and many other brands will be on show. You should be able to ride and compare hundreds of decent bikes and make a good decision. You're right to hesitate when spending a lot of money...

    Wisper 806 torque dead

    I'm sure a call to Wisper will quickly help identify the problem. In the meantime you might like to try to identify whether the battery switch is a bit sticky. A little squirt of wd40 into the lock might help.

    Hello everyone

    There should be absolutely no problem with refunding your voucher. It can take a few days but you will end up with a fresh voucher to use elsewhere. Your rights are exactly the same as any customer and you should not be out of pocket after you've returned the faulty bike.

    E-bike power cuts out under load

    You're right to suspect the battery but there's little value to checking individual cell voltages - they will balance up naturally in very little time when there's no drain. I think you might want to double check the battery switch. Perhaps bypass that temporarily.

    Replacing 7 years old Freego Eagle

    We do, when it makes sense and I'm sure others would too.

    Replacing 7 years old Freego Eagle

    Your existing battery should be compatible with a few brands. Why not keep that and buy a bike without a battery?

    Choices, choices

    Hi Jill Derbyshire or Yorkshire Dales I wonder? Either would be fine with our bikes but I understand what you mean by feeling out of control. That can be remedied by either a torque sensor or an improved display. If you can visit us or any of our dealers nearby we can demonstrate the...
