    Hiya folks, lightweight ebike options

    Pointless you lot posting on here... OP said he wont be back till 5 to 10 years time. By that time we'll have perfected a miniature fusion reactor for power, fitted to a bike frame made from the finest Unobtanium. Its an exciting future.

    They clearly didn't expect us. :)

    I wonder if she's charging for that service ! If so, she's making money hand over fist.

    Which bike from a choice of 3??

    Ride em both..... If you prefer the Cube and it seems to you that it is indeed worth twice the money. Then buy it if you can afford it. Otherwise get the CrossfireE..... Almost all on here that have bought one have been happy with it. The only issues i've seen about them, is that some have...

    Kudos Alamo/Stealth v G-tech e-bike.

    I think there's three sorts of people that buy the G Tech..... 1) People who dont know much about Ebikes and cant be bothered to research them. 2) People who buy things solely on the look of them and see the G Tech as cool and ultra modern looking, in the same way that Iphones and Ipads have the...

    Are ebikes worth the price tag?

    Of course you do........ and i expect you you dont get any kickbacks whatsoever, like those freebie Ekit parts you fitted to your Giant Defy road bike. Titter...... Busted.

    Are ebikes worth the price tag?

    AFAIC You're a dealer on here...... a salesman, a salesman for Woosh...... In my experience of salesman, if you told me the Earth was round, i'd be tempted to join the flat Earth society.

    Are ebikes worth the price tag?

    I use a lot of motorcycle forums..... If we had dealers on there saying how hard they're having it, they'd be laughed off the forum. Motorcycle dealers have mug punters that pay full price, the dealers that manage these full price sales are creaming it in....... then they have the more clued up...

    Are ebikes worth the price tag?

    Oh yes they have...... i've seen dealers say 'No one makes much of money in this business' and even yourself saying there's only about £50 profit in the G Tech. I dont believe any of it.

    Are ebikes worth the price tag?

    You can put certain specs of components on your frames, like Shimano ect, and these specs will always be on price points of bikes..... But, and its a big BUT, dealers like yourself will highlight these components but you'll always fail to mention the cheap as chips Chinese frames they're added...

    Are ebikes worth the price tag?

    Now, i dont mind dealers making a profit....... of course they're going to make a profit, they would last in business if they didn't. But stop this pathetic hard done by crap,' we're cutting our mark up to to the bone' BS Only idiots believe that rubbish.

    Are ebikes worth the price tag?

    Oh dear, you're like a boxer on the ropes desperately trying to stay in the ring.. How about this with Nexus 8 speed hub at only 11.2 kilos...

    Are ebikes worth the price tag?

    Just off the top of my head..... I could go in Halfords and buy a Voodoo Marasa, with hydraulic brakes and 9 speed cassette...... at £240. Its leagues above your Karoo without the kit added to it. And thats without spending a few days looking for deals all over the net.

    Are ebikes worth the price tag?

    Oh perleeze...... Its a cheap ass Chinese bike, with a cheap ass hub motor kit on it. I'm sure Woosh and your association are making a very good profit on it. So stop the salesmans BS and save it for the mug punters.

    Are ebikes worth the price tag?

    Without the Ekit, the Karoo is a no name Chinese made hybrid...... and i certainly wouldn't pay £300 for it.

    Are ebikes worth the price tag?

    Of course they're overpriced...... about £1K to £4K !!...... for a push bike with a leccy motor a bit more powerful than my cordless drill !! How long is this early adopting gonna go on for ?

    Nice ride today

    Yup, dogs have to be well quick to catch Thumper & his pals... My Staffy has caught a few various species of wildlife..... sadly nothing i would want to eat though. I've told him, only catch rabbits & grey squirrels, but he doesn't get it...... thick as sh** Staffies are.
