    The Last Wisper Sneak Preview of the year. 12kg Road Bike

    I know the chances of getting caught with a dongle are extremely small, but I wouldn't take the risk of using one.

    Cube Reaction Hybrid SL 500

I think if you are successful in changing the law to enable the assisted speed to be increased to 20 mph, then I think it would sell extremely well. I used to be a member of a roadie cycling club this was around 20...
