    practical step-through

    Our tandem conversion has been a great success, thanks all at Woosh. I will want to buy an electric bike for myself some time, maybe soonish, maybe not so soon, but starting thinking about it. This won't be a conversion as I know that very soon I will want a step-through rather than crossbar...
