For whatever reason, the white Pendleton Somerby-e in my local Halfords is ticketed at £1020. Order it online to collect it at the shop and the price is £675. The Crossfuse is £1620 if ordered online to collect.

I'd endorse pretty much what's been said above. I took Mrs 13's Somerby-e up the Bostal hill locally (Nealh probably knows it) and it showed no distress, possibly because I kept it rolling. I know the hill from climbing it on a regular bike, and that it's less painful on body parts if you...

If it is any help I advertised my Apollo Slant, converted with the battery, motor, controller and PAS from a scrapped Viking E-Go 24 on Facebook Marketplace. I could have sold it several times over to local buyers wanting to collect.

+1, likewise

I did look but couldn't see the tried and tested method mentioned. 1. Take a length of chain and ignoring the derailleur, wrap it around the largest chainring at the front and the largest sprocket at the rear. 2. Pull it tight to see where the nearest rivet you could join it is. Mark that ...

Looks tidy! Did you need to crank up the preload on the forks to cope with the extra weight?

From the OP's description, the Big Bear LS came straight to my mind, but I can't recommend from experience. To the OP:- It's a difficult one, because you are probably going to get the best physical and mental benefit from getting on an e-bke and using it as early as possible. My mantra has...

Pendleton have been around for a few years now. I know of several leisure riders with Pendleton Somerbys (non e-bike.) The OP has one. Mrs 13 has a Pendleton Somerby e and has had it for a year. As far as I know, it wasn't a new model and the model was probably introduced in 2017. I can't...

Thanks for the help, but that was 4 years ago. I did actually fix it before transplanting the electric stuff from the E-Go onto another bike. The derailleur was simply stiffened up due to lack of lubrication. The bike was well used before I got it, and despite me lubricating all accessible...

Denial is common among BPH sufferers. I get the same, advice and explanations are requested, but allegedly unnecessary as , "It's just for reference I'm OK in that department." I suspect that there are a fair few more men reading this thread than would admit it. Frankly, I was in denial...

Yup, it's still a bit of a taboo subject for many. Treatment for BPH is most definitely, "medicate and monitor," until/unless a major change occurs. In my case that was he episode of acute urinary retention. My own experience with Tamsulosin over 4 years was that I did suffer mild to medium...

Or think about it another way. Buy the bike and you get British Cycling membership, and a year's National Trust Family membership for minus twenty five sovs. Not bad at all. :)

My opinion? I would buy it! It would suit me to a tee. I'll try and explain as best I can. I built a simple e-bike using the electric components from a scrapped Viking e-go 24, and Halfords' cheapest MTB. I didn't se a handlebar LCD, I hardwired the plug from the old one into the controller...

I realise now that I haven't updated this ongoing review for over 3 years! I decided not to bother buying another handlebar module and simply hardwired the plug to the controller so it was set on full assistance all the time. The only issue with the little Viking wasn't with its componentry as...

Mrs 13's is white and blue. Halfords do some odd, crazy discounts from time to time. The one in my local Halfords is ticketed at £1020, and I remember paying around £650 in early April 2018.

My own prostate issues were a BPH with a prostate volume of 132cc. I endured that until a year ago when I had an episode of urine retention following a long MTB ride. In short, I wound up catheterized for 5 months and suffered several nasty infections in the process one time verging on sepsis...

Mrs 13 has had a Pendleton Somerby e bike for just over a year. She's gone from cycling zero miles in the last decade on her regular bike to regular 30 mile rides almost straight away on the Somerby. It climbs hills just fine, and hardly ever drops more than one bar on the battery range...

Yes, certainly a case of right place, right time for once. It's been worth what I paid and shelled out to repair several times over. I used the bike extensively last year and it has helped me chose to cycle when ordinarily I wouldn't. Since I posted in September, it has been further fettled:-...
