Excellent News (If there is enough interest and Russ goes ahead that is) Please put me down for two mugs and one car sticker Would like to see a design for the T shirt before I commit - so much to consider there ref message on front, back, sleeve, quality of cotton, colour of T shirts...

Hi Allen Return PM sent - not so much about swinging it, more to do with just one eye working at the time of the tests so little real option! The whole experience though does make you realise just how poor some peoples vision can be and they still hold a licence and continue to drive. Parking...

Hi Steve Hope you dont mind a non pedelec question in response to the above... I`m about to buy a new non elec bike and have been looking at the Trek range. The FX7.2 has caught my eye as a reasonably priced hybrid, however, the FX 7.5 does look tempting. I`m wondering if I would notice...

Ignoring for a moment the tongue in cheek (I hope) comments and jokes and back to the OP question... I take being as visible as I can very seriously and do all I can to help motorists see me as far away as possible - whether on my normal push bike, Ezee Sprint or my Honda PCX When I first...

Kindle So - e-readers such as the Amazon Kindle - a force for good if the "yoof" can be persuaded to use it? I agree ref book reading and thankfully both of mine are avid readers, but I also accept that they are both wed to their electronic gadgets too. (They are 18 and 16 yrs old) Any...

Admittedly mine is a Sprint GTS, (has a cross bar), but I run mine at 60psi and its been fine for over 3000 miles at that pressure on mixed terrain. Happy pedalling Bob_about

A Definition? Just struck me - we are talking about semantics without having defined it.......... More detail here Lol, smiley face & other such well defined humor notifications!! Bob_about

Never throw away the semantics - where would internet discussions be without semantics? Lol!

I think I`m legal!!! I have fitted a switch to my Ezee to restrict / de-restrict it. This switch is located within a section of inner tube (for waterproofing obviously, although curiously this plus the position makes it almost invisible unless you know its there) and mounted on the frame...

Eyes peeled Sorry to hear that I`ll be out and about in Warwick, Leamington & Kenilworth most of next week so will keep a look out and let you know if I see any Wisper 905s Is there anything specific to identify yours? Hope it turns up again Bob_about

OnBike Agree Dead Easy - OnBike Huge range of test bikes, good countryside with hills close to Kiddermister shop too, impartial advice, endlessly patient, excellent email, phone and on site support. The guys there know their bikes inside out, are competent on the electrics and have test...

Making the presumption that I am reasonably fit (never been completely sure how you measure that) I`ll throw in my two-penneth; Ref 1 above, - does not apply to me thankfully Ref 2 above, - its not worked out like that, I still always need a shower after my commute in, although I admit...

Ref Scooters - I bought one of these in September as an additional option for my commuting needs - chang of job now means e-bike is not always practical as daily miles creep over 60 some days - not so much the range as the time. I passed my car test in 1985 so could ride a 50cc scoot with no...

Perspective? I dread to think what the original poster must be thinking about the way this thread has developed - perhaps its best viewed that e-bike owners are an enthusiastic bunch who get passionate about their bikes? A couple of observations - 1.Its not a mass market product - e...

Lusty Beg Island No - still not buying it This explanation from Flecc is far too complete and plausable to be believed. I have done a bit of research and think I can reveal the truth Flecc has obviously recently won a holiday on a remote luxury island (see here) and was letting us...

Hi Genesis I was in same position around 12 months ago and put a fair bit of effort into choosing my current bike Performance wise the stats here and here are about what you are looking for (with the derestrict switch in the naughty position) I wrote a bit about my search in this thread...

An interesting debate as always and I really do hope it remains up to individuals to decide. I do / have done four activities where helmets can come into play (ignoring work on construction sites) Motorcycling - its the law, so always worn one whether its a 3 min journey to the paper shop...
