    EBCO Eagle

    Just noticed this bike on the onbike site.. The EBCO Eagle! Where did this company appear from?! Very modern looking bikes, I like the built-in LCD computer console: That's some serious design!

    Giant Halfway 2 suitable for conversion?

    I'm looking for a folding bike to do a conversion using a Vitenso kit and I really like the design of the Giant Halfway 2...but to my surprise I noticed it only has one fork at the front! I expect this would be totally unsuitable for fitting a front hub motor wheel onto?

    Cyclepoint

    Does anyone know if Cyclepoint has gone out of business? I notice their website hasn't been updated since last year (news and blog). They have some heavily reduced prices on the Ezee bikes, but I think these maybe old offers/models.

    Battery recycling

    I've also noticed the availability of reasonably priced LifePro4 individual 3.3v 2300mah cells offered on eBay directly from China.

    Wisper 905 Eco Questions

    I'm considering buying a Wisper 905 Eco bike but have a few questions I'm hoping someone will be able to answer... I'm a bit unclear as to what makes this bike an "eco" and why it's cheaper.. it's supposed to be a slimmed-down version of the 905 Sport/City but it looks exactly like the Sport...

    New bike+Kit verses off-the-shelf

    Whilst continuing my search for the ideal e-bike, I've started coming around to the idea of exploring a custom build by buying a new bike and adding a kit.. Aside from the potential cost saving over a branded e-bike, there seems to be a number of obvious benefits to going down the kit route...

    Brakes question (Disc compared to V)

    I've seen that some e-bikes use disc brakes and others use v brakes and wondered whether a bike with disc breaks is generally a better option for e-bikes? Sorry if my question is a bit vague..I'm a complete newbie to e-bikes. Disc brakes do look more complicated and involved from a...
