have you looked at their online site? Its awesome! All the back issues from 2007 onwards. I think if you were an existing subscriber when the magazine was launched , you had to email A2b and ask for access, otherwise you 'll get it next time your renew your membership. The best thing about...

Great Summary musicbooks. It really matches my experiences (and learning!) with the bike. Thanks for the tip about the front light! i had no idea! There's an off button on the front light anyone know what that does? Re Forks and handling. I'm quite pleased with the forks although I've never...

Hi Harry, Ive got to say i didnt (and wouldnt) buy the Agattu for speed, i bought it because its clearly a hill climber and it looks damn pratical. I'm curious why did you buy one if you have a Torq and you want a fast ebike? PS I love those handlebars round town, sit back watch the...

agree with the others. Lets use your example. Lets say someone spends tour de france money on engineering a light motor and battery then fits it to a 5.7kg tour de france bike. Who'd win the all importamt hill stages? All of the ebikes on the market are aimed at commuter work horses. Even...

The answer is subscribe to a2b magazine. All your nano questions answered.....and if theyre not just ask and i'm sure you'll get a whole page article. I think they covered this in their first (of many) nano article. Regards A2b lover

Me too! On this topic i have a question. I'd much prefer it if the engine kicked in more at a lower pressure ie cycling fast in the lower gears (this is more my cycling style). That way i could use the eco setting for the flat and retain use of the high power for the hills. Is there a way of...

Hi StrangeFish, Just to confirm it doesnt happen on mine. Your still under warranty so i'd call 50cycles at the very least for their opinion. Good luck PS It gets better in the morning in the end! Eventually your commute will go like this: Monday: Superman on wheels! Tuesday: Probably...

Hi Chris, Your right if you turn the assist off on the flat you do notice it. Its just that compared to my lighter touring bike it feels sluggish. It climbs and descends better than the tourer but i slow on the flat. On the plus side its also damn windy where i live and the heavy agattu...

Hi Larkspur, re the bike doing better on the hills than on the flat. The reason is the Panasonic Crank Motor. It only works when your really working. So on the hills it really ramps up and goes, on the flat it gives very little assistance and so probably barely pulls the extra weight of the...

Thanks james! I hope to put a bit more work into it soon and get some more photos on.

So life would be better with 1 billion people on the planet. Well maybe, but how does one achieve that? Population control? Chinas single child policy? You want to avoid talk of war, but any attempt by the state to dictate how many children you can have would result in civil unrest, violence etc

I'm constantly updating my blog (see my sig) . I might do a full review of the bike later, but its got rolling impressions and thoughts on the Agattu from a first time pedelec user.

Hi mandy, It wasnt a problem, just an observation. SimonBarnett is changing his rear sprocket like many people are doing or planning to i think, beacuse he feels the gearing is too light. I was observing that i found the gearing a little light when theres just me, but as i add weight it...

Hi Just some feedback on gearing. I had planned to mod mine, but actually i dont think i will. I live in area with a lot of steep hills\slopes and i plan to move a lot of weight and\or avoid sweating up them, so i think i'll keep my gears as is for the minute. I'll see how i feel after a...

mmm a good idea except ive already broken the skirt guard trying to adjust the rear mudguard after swapping the rack for a hamax plus child seat rack. I might call them anyway.

Ive just got my 'diamond frame' agattu. I wish i'd ordered the step thru! 2 main reasons: -Its not a very macho diamond frame (unlike the pro connect) -I have a wee boy on the back, so i cant swing my leg over the saddle It would have looked delibertaly un-macho cool with the step thru.

Uuuuuuuuhhhhh (froths at mouth) , roll on Monday when mine arrives! i'll be blogging away about it when it does.....

cool! Musicbooks do tell what its like, so i can build my anticipation! Cheers

Hurray! I'd just spoken to 50cycles to check availability and they'd just got them in to dispatch Monday. I think musicbooks and simon barnett will be contacted on sunday by the courier.

Phoaawwr! Looks a right hot bird ....y :) Although i had to hide it behind an old issue to read on the train :)
