    Raleigh are increasing prices by 10% as from August 1.

    Not forgetting also....... A lot of these price rises will also be going on stuff that was purchased at the old rates, thus even yet more profit on that stuff.

    Raleigh are increasing prices by 10% as from August 1.

    I tell you what i think..... I believe Ebike dealers make a big mark up on the Ebikes they sell, they want this big mark up because their Ebikes dont sell in large numbers. But since the fall of the pound in Brexit, they dont want to incur any of this cost themselves, the ones that have raised...

    Raleigh are increasing prices by 10% as from August 1.

    Strange how Halfords can do a 20% reduction sale on their CrossfireE not long after the Brexit vote..... I'm sure they're still making a good profit, even with that reduction. And the thing with Halfords, is that even when the prices go back up, you only have to wait a couple of months and their...

    dealers price for a 500w bosch battrey

    Any Ebike i would be interested in buying, i would always check out the cost of a replacement battery first before buying the bike. The Bosch batteries seem well overpriced to me, so that would stop me ever buying a Bosch powered bike..... unless these batteries could ever be re-celled from...

    Electric Bike - 80km range single charge. Worth £1299 new. £899 ONO!

    All very well to say 18 months left of warranty....... but the caveat is whether that warranty is transferrable to the new owner. Many Ebike companies will not transfer that warranty. Any prospective buyers should take note of this.

    BORED !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I've been pretty lucky i guess. Been riding m/c's for 40 years on & off, but never been that badly injured with the few offs i've had...... not even back in the day when i was a bit of a tearaway. Last off was 1991....... Hope i'm not tempting fate here.

    Damn..... I bet that smarted a bit...... Pretty ironic to do track days & enduro, yet do that damage to your hand in a car. Impressive !

    Congratulations Chris Froome

    Not heard of the French throwing abuse, accusations of cheating.... and even urine at Chris Froome this year. Can it be that sour grapes isn't on the French menu anymore ?

    Hi Everyone

    Yes i knew what you were on about, you didn't have to explain it..... The point was, i would never have noticed it before you mentioned it.

    Dog attacks.

    Little yappy dogs like Jack Russells & Westies always come running up to my Staffy barking their heads off. He could kill em with one bite if he wanted to, but he just acts like they aren't there and carries on with his business looking for interesting scents. The dogs owners are usually the...

    Oxygen S-Cross CB

    I think the Oxygen bikes look great..... but I'd want to know the availability and cost of replacement batteries, as they're the not so common, in frame type batteries.

    Halfords Carrera e-Bike now only £799.99

    Join British Cycling and you get 10% off in Halfords. So that would make this bike £720.

    Halfords Carrera e-Bike now only £799.99

    Yes, great deal with the 20% off.... If that bike had been around three years ago, when i fitted a kit to a Carrera Crossfire, i would have bought that instead. I notice that they're still saying 9amp/hr battery, when its really 11amp/hr.

    Crowd dodging

    People who would get upset at the the inoffensive sound of the ping of a bicycle bell, would likely get upset at any warning of your presence. Maybe change your music to some thrash metal.... see how they respond to that.
