Yes I did glance through it all, but its clear you are now a man on a mission (excuse me if you female but you get the idea) and you don't want anything or anyone to get in your way. I agree about the issue and what it may or may not lead to, but the way your are doing it publicly is wrong in...

My point is what are the retailers doing wrong when selling the dongles, its not illegal is it? They could be used on private land, the loss of warranty is down to the buyer. So you can roll out of a cycle shop with a bike fitted with a dongle as long as you don't use it in a public place or...

I'm not saying that every part would be available, its just that I had a brand new bike delivered next day, not only that but it was a European 250 watt bike that is not available in the UK so was like for like, that is the power of the network unlike Joe Blogs who uses Parcels 4 us or whatever...

All cars that can exceed 70mph should be BANNED from being sold or imported into this country, it is ILLEGAL to go over 70mph, all dealers should be closed down if they do so, why own a car that does 140mph or 160mph when you can't drive it that fast. They should also close down all tyre...

Can you imagine if that bike had come from China via ebay or a small cycle shop somewhere else in the country you would be stuffed or severely up the creek without a paddle as these bikes are not easy or cheap to shift around! So my risk assessment of choosing a bike with a network of dealers...

Yes I agree about better it didn't happen, but things do happen, and it was put right within a day and more importantly they were not the selling dealership, only because I had no idea they existed as they were in another county and Mercedes seems to refer you to dealers in your county when you...

When my bike arrived the motor didn't work, I took it to the local Mercedes Smart dealer who put the laptop on it, it showed no motor registering, they checked the cable connectors and the battery which were all OK, so it was an issue with the motor of the new bike, I had a brand new 250watt...

I'm glad I bought a Smart eBike with the global Mercedes network 2yr warranty, lucky escape!

I just think it is cr@p marketing, when I went into a UK Smart showroom the bike was hidden in a corner, it seems as if Mercedes Smart dealers don't want to be dealing with bikes, and yes the UK is the only country that was getting 200watt bikes as mentioned in my last post. For the current...

There was a sale on at some of the German dealers, NOT here in the UK though, the UK supplied bikes are all 200 watts but for some reason the rest of Europe gets 250 watts and the US 350 watts, so I got a 250 watt German one shipped over.

Get a brand spanking new bargain Mercedes Smart eBike, see my posts but be quick only a few left at bargain prices, down from £2,500 to around £1,100 with top of the range kit and extra power (250W) when bought in Europe i.e. Germany or Belgium. Iron out the hills and arrive as if you had just...

I must say I contemplated on leaving the switch on the left as I did use it in the left and it felt natural and closer to your thumb as the right lever has the twist speed control and they put it left of the brake leaver clamp as well so more of a stretch, but in the end the dealer said that the...

I had the power level switch changed from left to right as they do in the UK, they use a special tool to wrap the excess cabling in. Type of mini inner tube so you may want them to do that as well, if you want pics let me know. So that is to move the power switch from left to right.

Fantastic, can you just confirm about the black one available on the details sent, is this the one you were after if so I wouldn't go for it and just go for another grey. A spare battery is almost 500 euros so makes these bikes cheap as chips :) I will have a chat with my wife today, we were...

Can you send me a message with the dealers name, I may buy another for the wife, I live in Kent so with the Eurotunnel day return offers at the moment could pop over, have a spot of lunch and bring it back :-) Cheers,

Wow! Well done, that is the one I was after as the shocks are around 340 Euros and the rack 160 Euros so you do save a bit plus they are already fitted. The Black is quite rare and I am sure will be worth more in the future, most dealers were lucky to get one if what I heard was right. Having...

That is one stunning looking bike, enjoy it, makes my Smart eBike look a bit boring :-)

How are you getting on with the BMW bike, I'm looking for another for my wife and am quite interested, it looks very smart and well thought out, just had a hell of a laugh reading some of the so called experts comments on this thread, you couldn't make the nonsense up that is spouted, especially...

I bought a Thule Easybase http://www.freeborn.co.uk/thule-949-easybase-base-unit and a couple of these bike attachment kits, you can get a single but it wasn't that much more for a double, so I'm using 3 and have a spare https://roofracks.co.uk/thule-easybike-948-2/ (Click on the video tab on...

Here is a review that was a part of my decision, its from the US but same bike except the higher power of 350w http://electricbikereview.com/smart/ebike/ I was in Brighton yesterday and went to a bike shop near the marina, called cyclelife, they had a huge range of bikes and I was impressed at...
