    This mornings Sunday Times

    Article about e-bike in this mornings Sunday Times it has also just been on BBC breakfast ... My thoughts are that this type of publicity is bad for all. What are your thoughts? Unfortunately I couldn't find a way to up load the whole article but if someone could tell me I'll give it a go.

    2016 Giant Road e+1 display in KPH not MPH

    And so the 30 days right to return passes and your "good retailer" comes back with the words " Sorry Giant have said they won't do anything about this" What then! Realistically you will have no choice than to live with the km.speedo.

    So in that case it would be unreasonable to expect to return the bike but you are still entitled to have the problem fixed...

    2016 Giant Road e+1 display in KPH not MPH

    The consumer rights act is there to protect the consumer and a retailer is bound by law to observe it. You have 30 days to reject the item and the clock is ticking. As a retailer myself I understand that this can be difficult on us and feel unfair, however it is the law and why should you spend...

    E-Roadies looking a lot less unconventional

    After my stern words with myself I needed to get out on my bike. Took out the Haibike out and thought it would be a good idea to see how far I could get unpowered! I did 15 miles and 900ft ascent.. Turned the power back on for the last 5 miles and 550ft of ascent but will try for a bit further...

    E-Roadies looking a lot less unconventional

    Hi Phill, New bike looks and sounds absolutely fantastic. I never made it to Ilkley Cycles on Saturday as I had stern word with myself about do I really need another bike adding to my collection so for now the E-road bike is on hold. But I may weaken when you start posing details of your rides...

    To go tubeless or not to go tubeless.

    Problem being you can carry more and more kit that you may or may not need. I already carry in my pack a couple of pieces of this flexible plastic and a spare inner tube. Hopefully that shoud rectify bigger holes AND ripped sidewalls.

    Getting ready for the 2016 Swiss Alps trip.

    But it's got to be a great feeling to know that you can keep going and your not going to run out of power.

    E-Roadies looking a lot less unconventional

    Hi, I'm not denigrating any form of e-bike I absolutely love my e-mtb it gets me to places and on runs, trails and tracks that would be hard for a fit 25 year old. I was comparing a very lightweight Road bike with a powered equivalent and pondering on the riding experience. And believe it or...

    Hi Phill, I'm with you on the getting home wet and knackered and the idea of a powered Road does appeal. Have you had your test ride and what's the verdict.

    E-Roadies looking a lot less unconventional

    Phill, I think this bike looks great and I could be interested in one. Is the bike they are getting in a test bike because if that's the case I would also like to have a test ride it. The idea of a powered Road bike is great but after reading the review I have some sympathy with the reviewer...

    20 mile ride on my Kalkfoff

    Hi Ed, just for the record as you never seem to miss the opportunity to have a dig at Haibike, I have done 2500 miles in the past 12 months mainly off road and in challenging conditions on my Haibike and after a touch of blue loctite everything has been excellent and with 100 relibility. I am...

    Advise please.

    Hi Guys, I have a Haibike Sduro allmtn rc which I am completely delighted with and does all I could want or expect a e-mtb to do. I also have tucked away in my garage my previous MTB which never gets a look in now, but my son has expressed an interest in coming out with me. I would like to...
