    This bike has me confused.

    Close and very vulnerable to impact damage from stones, rocks etc.

    This bike has me confused.

    This is a new one to me. I just don't get what it's about. http://www.emotion-technologies.de/ebikes/m1/spitzing/

    Raleigh scoops KOGA sales rights in the UK

    I really didn't want to derail this thread any further, so sorry for this Martin. :( Dave if you had made that comment a year ago, I'd have been privately thinking "get lost". The reason being that I was then very misguided, as to what a pedelece should be about. Over the last year I have grown...

    bamboo bike kit

    My point... To me they look crap, with poorly executed construction methods. Seeing them burn, would be the only safe and logical thing to do with them. Some people just shouldn't be allowed near hand tools. edit.. You actually now have me thinking that maybe I should show them how it should...

    bamboo bike kit

    It's probably the best thing that could happen to those builds. A Lipo fire would be doing the World and the bikes owner, a big favour.

    Aldi puncture repair canister.... First try!

    I have two pumps, both of which are superb. I have a Lezyne Tech Drive HV for when I'm out with my small camelback. I found this pump up on the South Downs Way. :)...

    Kranium KR1 RED

    Perhaps I'm wrong, but it looks the same as this Saxonette that I spotted earlier on in the year. Available with 8fun hub drive or 8fun mid drive. I had quite a lengthy look around the bike, and didn't walk away thinking what a load of crap. The bikes looked quite presentable and well put...

    3 maybe 4 to choose from, experiences and thoughts ?

    I fully understand your thoughts about the battery integration, and that above anything else, was what drew me to the NEO range. Having the KTM e-Cross P on test for a week or so, I very quickly didn't even really notice the battery, but obviously unlike the BH, there is no getting away from the...

    3 maybe 4 to choose from, experiences and thoughts ?

    I'll let you make your own mind up. Constant error codes from day one. Rear hub bearing failure within the first 100 miles. Two replacement motors. Broken wire within frame system. BH tried to blame me for this. I blame poor original bike assembly. Peeling paint. The motor surged badly from...

    Raleigh scoops KOGA sales rights in the UK

    Being blunt, I never understood why Koga would want to be associated with a distributor that was selling non related cycle products within the same company name/website. The diversification of products, just doesn't come across as being either committed or professional, and in the case of Koga...

    E-bikes eat chains? Busted!

    A cousin on mine also puts his chain through a monthly ultra sonic clean at the factory where he works. He swears by it, and is always saying that I wouldn't believe just how much more crud that it removes, and also how it has lengthened his replacement time. When I get the next bike, I have...

    Raleigh scoops KOGA sales rights in the UK

    Just being nosey, does that leave Maxtrack out of the loop now, or are they still sole UK distributor? I met Rob M from Maxtrack very briefly before they became the Koga distributor. He seemed a really nice genuine guy, and we discussed taking a couple of bikes out for a spin locally, but sadly...

    2008 wisper 905 se for £600? worth it?

    Being blunt, I'd say that the seller almost needs to give you the bike. It could be hanging on it's backside after six years of use. Worn bearings, cassette, derailleur, chain, forks, brakes, tyres etc, could soon add up to far more than what the bike will ever be worth, and that's without...

    Lights again

    Ajax, it isn't really a case of lowering the brightness, but more of a case of lowering the beam direction so as not to dazzle people. :)

    New Danny Macaskill video

    Whilst I don't agree with some of the ethics of Red Bull, I do love the rampage clips. In relation to fantastic off road clips, this is one of my favourites. Chris Akrigg is another rider that I love to watch. If nothing else, skip to 4 mins 20secs in :eek: This one always makes me...

    An offer too good to refuse?

    Look at the sellers latest offering, or rather the unbelievable description. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/HT-bosch-electric-ebike-hybrid-town-city-bike-mountain-bike-best-of-the-best-/181558295236?pt=UK_Bikes_GL&hash=item2a45b7bac4 Talk about a seller to avoid. .

    KTM eRace P, first impression review

    Do you still run the OE Schwalbe Racing Ralph tyres? Only you have mentioned punctures, and this something that I have found with the Racing Ralphs. They are a lovely lightweight tyre, and are a good OE choice, but sadly I guess that the compromise to weight has been thickness. I'm still a big...

    Here is a link to a review by a forum member in relation to their long term ownership of a 2013 model year KTM eRACE P http://www.pedelecs.co.uk/forum/threads/ktm-erace-p-first-impression-review.15192/ Library photo. 2014 model year bike. And the lovely looking 2015 bike with the larger...

    KTM eRace P, first impression review

    Thanks for sharing that Footloose, it made for very interesting reading. :) The lad who rode the review e-CROSS P with me, used the regen almost constantly whilst riding on flat and at any given opportunity. Being a fitness freak he saw it as a challenge. :) I'll add the short cut to thread...
