Snooper Folding E-Bike! £649 Heh Snooper E-Bike Compact Folding Electric Bike

Damn what a cheek. The guy must be really peeved who invented it.

I've noticed most electric bikes seem to have these silly LED's for the power level indicator on the handlebars. You would think when you're spending £1k+ on a bike you'd get something more accurate wouldn't you. I know the Wisper 906 and few top end bikes have the fancy LCD's now which have...

Wow what a strange looking bike, unusual design. Looks quite modern and almost like something Sir Clive Sinclair might of come up with! Speaking of Sir Clive, I notice he brought out a folding bike (non-electric) called the A-bike which looks crazy to ride, but is probably one of the...

fbm can I ask what bikes have you ridden and what is your favourite bike to ride and why?

Great review Ray, I had considered the X-6 on my list of bikes to get as it looks very much like a conventional bike plus it's very lightweight and the small batteries are easy to carry. I wasn't sure about it's power tho compared to bikes like the Wisper as I'm after something with a bit of a...

The Powabyke X6 comes well within your budget but as someone else pointed out it's only 6A due to the very small and lightweight batteries. I believe those batteries are much cheaper than larger ones (around £200) so you could probably get a spare battery and still come close to your budget...

I think Alex has hit the nail on the head here... if someone acts foolish on an electric bike and annoys others or puts the public in danger, i.e. showing off and bombing up and down the road or on paths, the police have a responsibility and duty to come out and take the bike off the road...

hahahaha :D

That's incredible that those low-life scums have the audacity to try and sell a stolen bike on eBay. I hope eBay have banned them. And why aren't they being prosecuted for it eh. Glad to hear you got your bike back safely anyway, hope it's not been damaged.

I agree, this does seem unusual. Things are very relaxed at the moment aren't they, there's no reason why the police would seize a bike or even bother to stop someone unless it was going seriously fast without pedalling. Does this guy have a 500W-1000W motor or something crazy?! It may also be...

hmm This thread has got me wondering... Now the DfT has finished it's public consultation on e-bikes and the likely result being to harmonise UK legislation with the current EU regulations, meaning stricter regulations on manufacturers and dealers, and the banning of throttle-only power and...

I think you're right, because clearly e-bikes with their higher value than regular bikes and vulnerability need to be stored indoors. Perhaps if the market grows large and they become mainstream that could happen. If you parked your e-bike in a proper indoor car park it's probably even more at...

I don't own an e-bike yet, but will do very shortly, and this for me is a big concern I must say. As you say, the idea of leaving the most valuable component on the bike (which is potentially removable) unattended in a public place, seems crazy. I'm sure batteries weighing 3-4kg must be a real...

I disagree that scooters will wipe out e-bikes due battery improvements. I think scooters (or maybe even e-cars) could wipe out the combustion engine motorcycle/car, but not wipe out e-bikes. I think e-bikes will always have a market and there's a simple reason. Anyone can ride them, without a...

What a nanny state we are. EU sucks, we should go back to running our own affairs. Too much silly regulation from EU. You can't even buy vitamins now with the EU stating the strength of them, it's getting ridiculous.

:-O why is it so expensive?! I had a quote on a £1.3k bike and it was only 37 ish pounds a year.

Would standard home cover, cover for when the bike is used outside and parked? I had a quote the other day from Cycleguard and they offer an excellent package that not only covers the bike against theft and damage, but also third party damage and public liability. I think the quote was around...

Ouch that looks a really nasty burn there, or does it look worse than it is?

Ah very interesting flecc, that kind of makes things easier then in my indecisiveness about the two Ezee models.. I guess it just comes down to wheel size and personal choice..this is where a test ride would help.
