Hi all, I am looking for a reallly comfortable saddle. I'm talking sofa comfortable here. I have read all the stuff about not getting a really soft saddle etc. but circumstances are different here as, because of my health, I mostly use the Throttle on my Woosh Zephyr B, with occasional assisted...

KTM Yes, it looks like a done deal but I don't agree that disabled people should be done out of a great opportunity that nothing else offers, just because certain lobby's are wanting to ensure their income, if that argument had been applied to the NHS it wouldn't exist today. And the argument...

....I just knew someone would have to say that Perhaps I need to explain some of the advantages of E-bikes for people with Mobility problems, none of which would be covered by a moped. 1) Firstly the E-bike provides an opportunity for exercise where exercise is a difficult thing to do. With a...

It may not cause a drop in sales but it will certainly choke certain sales i.e. those to the majority of people who can ride E-bikes with Mobility issues. This is not obvious at the moment because the majority of such people haven't cottoned on to the great freedom and health benefits offered by...

...if it's anything like their cleaners there will always be special offers

I have been storing my bike in my music studio but it is becoming a problem. The other options are a wooden shed or to buy some kind of bike storage ( preferably one that isn't the same cost as the bike). My concern is the batteries, the shed heats up in the summer and is cold in the winter. Any...

I guess the problem will be actually finding one to buy as time goes on.

Some of the Comments on here give me a heavy heart. If it's so difficult to get type approval and not economically worthwhile, then it seems my excursion into E-bikes will last as long as the life of my Woosh bike. Also there will be no possibility of upgrade in the future. That will be me and a...

Sorry if I sounded a bit harsh but after more than two decades of dealing with half hearted efforts, such as ramps with doors at the top that open outwards or transport systems that claim to be accessible when they patently aren't, it would be nice if the decisions about impact upon disabled...

Thanks for the info. I wasn't aware of E-bikes and their usefulness to the disabled back in 2010 other wise I think I would have tried to stir up a disabled lobby. Sadly many people with mobility issues are unaware of the benefits of E-biking and so this great opportunity has passed by, a deluge...

Might help a few but not many with mobility issues. One thing is clear to me, nobody with mobility problems had any part in the decision to make throttles illegal. Most people with mobility issues that ride E-bikes have to stop pedaling from time to time either because of pain, limited muscle...

Just shows, as I have discovered personally, the government's pronouncement that making the throttle illegal will not impact upon the disabled users is patently untrue.

I have read just as many problems on here with the higher end bikes, some of the Kalkhoff battery issues would put me off even if I could afford one. the difference seems to me that things get sorted at the Woosh end.

Seconded, I have found their backup excellent too.

Just out of interest if you ramped it all the way up to the max, would it burn out the motor? A BPM motor that is (Zephyr B)

Is going to 18mph illegal? I know there is some leeway but not quite sure what it is.

Looks good to me!

Another Eped owner here and I concur that these scooters are reliable, low maintenance and very capable of getting about. Mine is an Iped lite. I now have an E-bike also , bought to introduce a little exercise into the pot. It's a great bike but much harder work balance wise, road holding and on...

My theory is they wanted to have a look in the bag, took off the lock had no idea what that is in the bag and just chucked the lock.

Can you add a throttle to the A2bs that have no throttle? I ask because of the incoming laws about throttles bikes no longer being built. I reckon by the time I get the spare cash together we'll be well into that law and I need a throttle, because of my health. These bikes look like a good...
