    How many people are using there e-bike off-road?

    Decided to ride Cow Green to Dufton on Monday but only managed just over halfway before I got bogged down in a very sticky peat bog,luckily there were some walkers not far away who helped me out. Going back when we have had a dry week to try and do the whole ride (if we ever get one!)...

    any one been pulled over by uk police

    Already sorted and I have a metal sticker on the side that states 250W nominal.25Kph max EN15194. That should be enough to keep them happy and if stopped I can limit the speed in about 6 seconds.

    any one been pulled over by uk police

    I have had a couple of cops look over my bike one day when it was parked outside the pub and overheard them saying how it looked a great idea and they wished the bosses would buy similar for them to use. The beauty of the BBS02 750W is it looks exactly the same as the 250W version..

    You should check out the price of your bike here as well. http://www.mhw-bike.com/ebikes/mountainbikes-hardtail/ As pointed out above it does make the warranty a bit awkward if you have to return the whole bike but at the end of the day if your budget is limited it may be the only way of...

    After Crawleyside I had a quick look over to Bollihope old quarry but as it was full of kids I just rode along and back for a quick video and will tackle it properly once they have gone back to school.

    How many people are using there e-bike off-road?

    Had a little ride out in the countryside today as it was a nice day and got my first puncture in 2600 miles,luckily it was a front one and took 5 minutes to fix with a scab. It was in the middle of the tread but strangely,there was nothing in the tyre. It happened on a rubble covered bridleway...

I do have a damaged coccyx though,from years of driving tractors with no suspension ,and even my gel saddle causes me pain after about 20 miles. As long as I...

The weight has only increased by 100 grams and it’s 2,6 kg now (190Wh/Kg). The new battery has the same shape of the Active Line and Performance Line batteries from last...

    New Bosch Coming!

    No.It states watts power output. Nowhere in my link is Wh reffered to,just a really bad interpretation of the original press release.

    New Bosch Coming!

    My link states "500 watts of power"! Rather misleading as it makes no mention of battery. Here it is... Those first units, with 300 and 400 watt power outputs, made it possible for riders to retrofit their pure pedal-powered bikes and use them to reach remote, alpine trailheads that they simply...
