    Recumbent delivery vehicles

    https://electricbikereport.com/ebike-news-dhl-cubicycle-more-bikes-than-cars-expo-highlights-video-cam-light-more-videos/ I thought this looked promising. Amazing how the German Post Office has bought more electric bikes, while ours just drives around in vans, chucking the delivery man/woman out...

    Pro-Rider bikes.

    Has anyone any experience of these bikes? http://www.proriderleisure.com/leisure/electric-bikes/e-tourer-electric-bike-red.html It seems very similar to the Woosh Santana I bought over three years ago, for £625, yet this is priced at £599. The firm looks very supportive. It may appeal to people...

    Practical PowaByke- at a good price.

    http://www.e-bikesdirect.co.uk/Item/Brands/PowaByke/Powabyke_Shopper_E100_Electric_Bike.aspx Just seen this on the EBikes Direct site. I'm not sure what the gearing is. Looks like the sort of bike you can just hop on and use.

    I noticed today, on the Juiced Riders website: http://www.juicedriders.com/ that a frame and forks are listed for sale. I enquired, and Tora Harris took the time to get back to me, asking how many people would be interested, which is why I have posted on here. He also pointed out that he was...

    Woosh Santana transplant.

    p { margin-bottom: 0.25cm; line-height: 120%; } Well. I've finally got my bike on the road, with all the bits fitted that I wanted. My Woosh Santana did me well, covering over five thousand miles over two years and three months. It was used virtually every day of the year. Having used it for...

    ODK Cargo bike

    I just received this email, and thought I would post it here, in case it is of interest. I have no connection with Juiced Riders, except as an admirer of Tora Harris, who seems to have put a lot of effort into his creation. The NipNip site itself is worth a look, as it seems to a bit beyond just...

    [Aug 29, 2014] HGV Safety Day - Portsmouth (Hampshire UK)

    Changing Woosh Santana motor.

    Now my bike is out of warranty, and I have ridden it enough to know what suits me, I am toying with the idea of fitting a motor to the front, and a three-speed hub to the back. Possibly, one of those SRam two-speed auto hubs, like the Momentum bikes use. The present motor has just three pins in...

    Round UK on EBike

    Have I missed this being posted earlier? News, Latest news from Powabyke : Electric Bikes & Electric Scooters I did a search before I posted. If you look on YouTube with a search for 'Justin across Canada', it's another story that gives more support for EBikes.

    EBikes etc in China

    I found this series of films, this morning. The earlier ones are better than the later ones, I found. Very interesting to see how our bikes are made, and also, what it looks like in China. https://www.youtube.com/user/JuicedRiders/videos
