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

    I dont think you really can compare them. They are too different to each other and are in in different classes of Ebikes. The Alamo & Stealth are only really comparable to the Woosh Karoo. The only bike i know of that could be directly compared to the G Tech, was the Freego Raptor...... and the...

    Woosh Karoo - heights

    Way too big then i'd imagine..... Seeing how far the end of the seat tube goes above the top tube, the seat height is going to be near 95 cm at the lowest it'll go.

    Fast electric bike LANERI FALCON 250L

    As the Laneri Falcon should be..... KIll it, kill it with fire, its the only thing to do with something that ugly.

    Woosh Karoo - heights

    Yup. always a gamble buying a bike without seeing or riding it. I would ask Woosh for the standover height of the top tube..... it may give you better idea of whether it'll fit your missus.

    This review thread, with more pics of the bike, may be more help..... http://www.pedelecs.co.uk/forum/threads/2016-woosh-karoo-hub-drive.23864/

    Woosh Karoo - heights

    I've not seen the Karoo in the flesh, so i'm only assuming on sizes..... But frame sizes are subjective, what suits some may not suit others even though they're the same height.

    What conversion kit should I get?

    Just realised also, i think you have disc brakes on the Crossfire 3 ? May be some clearance issues there with a front hub motor.

    What conversion kit should I get?

    If you do have to file them out, its by such a small amount that i dont think it'll make any difference. But i dont think you'll have to file them out on the Crossfire anyway, i didn't on mine. Only had to file a bit on the inside, where it met the disc bolts on the front motor.

    You would have seen how it was rated when you clicked it, it was only when i mentioned it you removed it...... either rate posts correctly or dont rate them at all. Anyone who rates my posts down, are going to get called on it.

    Woosh Karoo - heights

    20" frame seems big to me for someone thats 5'6"........ I would have thought the seat would have to be as low as it will go, then you may have probs standing over the crossbar. I'm 6'1" with a 34" inside leg and my hybrid is a 21" frame, i wouldn't like to go bigger.

    I see either you, or admin, have removed the dislike post rating you gave to my post 25.... So what was your problem with my post ?

    Oh dear...... Tabs dislikes my post. Maybe the spineless button pusher will come on here and tell me exactly what they dislike about it ?

    What conversion kit should I get?

    The LED display is right next to my left grip, i could as easily and quickly hit the motor off button with my thumb, if the unlikely happened and the motor stuck on. Also, i rarely use the thumb throttle these days, due to my hand arthritis becoming really bad. I keep the throttle though as a...

    What conversion kit should I get?

    I will add...... if i were fitting a more powerful (illegal) motor, i would use torque arms and probably would fit brake cut out switches as well.

    What conversion kit should I get?

    As people can see in that thread that was linked above, its now been three years since i fitted my 8fun kit. Never had to file out the drop outs, motor axle & nuts sat in them fine. I've never had a spoke break with this front hub motor. Used the torque washers, but didn't see the need for...

    What conversion kit should I get?

    I fitted a 8fun front hub motor kit to my Crossfire...... It fitted dead easy, although i did have to remove the granny ring, so i could fit the PAS disc on the chainring side. Also just had to file about 2mm from the inside of one the fork drop outs to clear one side of the motor. Never had any...

    Halfords sale enquiry

    I would definitely try to get some sort of recompense.... 200 quid is 200 quid at the end of the day. Doesn't cost anything to ask and the worse that can happen is that they'll say no. I've always found Halfords quite good to haggle with, even if they dont refund you the full £200, i would be...
