    Sustrans Win!!

    Have Sustrans published a before and after map of the changes to the national cycle network this win will bring about? I'd be interested in seeing that, but there isn't one on their website as far as I can see.

    Fell Off

    OUCH! Sorry to hear that Aron. My last tumble was in similar conditions, but with a helping hand from a royal mail van. Take care out there

    Fishing attack through 50Cycles mailing?

    Hi, we sometimes use a service called Jangomail to do our email newsletters. Pretty expensive actually! We'll most likely be moving over to another method in the New Year.

    Bike shop with knowledge of electrics?

    I'm now based in Kingston, walking distance from the town centre. However, my transport to Loughborough is not adequate to take a Torq this week. I may be able to help if you can wait until around this time next week?

    My Agutta Has Landed

    Hi, we based the weight on the delivery note from the manufacturer which states 23kg for each bike. Here's a scan of the relevant line below for our first two sample bikes: So I based the specs page on this. They must be using packaging with a negative weight to save on shipping costs ;) It's...

    News: 50Cycles launch the Kalkhoff Agattu Pedelec

    Yes, the one's we have in right now are fitted with a skirtguard. 250W is perfectly legal in EU, and we're in the EU aren't we!

    News: 50Cycles launch the Kalkhoff Agattu Pedelec

    I took the Agattu for a 25 mile ride on Saturday - from Kingston to and through Weybridge - good, rolling countryside on that leg - and back through Esher to Kingston then over the river and up to Twickenham before returning home. There was plenty of charge remaining (around 30%) which I took...

    Hi, word from eZee, having examined those we've returned, is that this problem is down to a faulty Zener diode in one of their batches. We're supplying replacements whenever it occurs. Tim

    The Regent's Park event was one of the best shows we've been to (and exhibited at) - great weather, well-attended, good location, lots of interesting exhibitors, interesting members of the public. We'd certainly do that one again if possible. However, I only heard about it by chance thanks to a...

    Urban Mover UK - Rubbish Customer Service!

    No-show We were chatting to the guys from Powabyke earlier today at the cycle show and they said that it looked like Urban Mover didn't bother to show up at their stall. Either they're too busy too attend, they couldn't be bothered or something's up. Powabyke were showing off their new Li...

    cycle 2 work w/ Halfords

    Sorry about that, just saw the Halfords thread title and posted before realising it was a Wisper-specific section. It's an important point though - electricbikesales claim on their website that they have an exclusive arrangement with Halfords to supply electric bikes to the exclusion of all...

    cycle 2 work w/ Halfords

    We have also sold a number of electric bikes under the scheme through Halfords, including Livs, Torqs and F-series bikes. Despite claims to the contrary, there is no exclusive deal between Halfords and any one electric bike supplier. And despite early claims to the contrary from Wisper, the...
