Well it's usually those that have never tried e bikes that are the first to voice a negative opinion! I've noticed over the years that change is hard for some people to adjust to, I remember back in the early eighties when mtb,s first came on the scene many of the traditionalists took an...

Good first review Shan, Giant make great e bikes and the Quick e looks the business as well. I understand that Giant batteries are manufactured in such a way that they are more efficient than their Watt/hour rating suggests. I really like the Yamaha motor as well , really smooth and powerful...

The two ebikes on the Isle of Kerrera, near Oban, Scotland. No real roads, just tracks on this small island. A lovely traffic free day meandering on the Kalkhoff and Giant, lunch at this cottage in the middle of nowhere. Perfect!

Hi all you campers, the Amdro Boot Jump, see full info and reviews on you tube, a great little camping pod set up that fits neatly behind the back seats of a Citroen Berlingo, Peugeot Partner or similar sized van type vehicle. It converts into a very comfortable double bed, or bench seats with...

Sounds good mate, are you a professional musician or is it your hobby?

Is it ok with the Sduro ? Think I saw a report about the screen not reading properly when switching on?

710 miles reached and only one irritating niggle in the form of a creek from I,m not sure where when pressing on pedals, more so on the left pedal than right. This has been happening over last 250 miles or so and has disappeared at times before reappearing later. Have changed the pedals but...

Looks really nice, Cube make some great value for money quality e bikes, keep us posted on how you get on with it

Hi Blackmail, great time to buy, loads of dealer's discounting their stock to make way for 2018 models.

Hi Philip, welcome to forum, ime from down the road in Burton.

Thanks for the historical info Flecc, it makes things a bit clearer, but I reckon the consumer would possibly prefer a less powerful but reliable motor and those that need extra torque could choose to buy a more proven and appropriate bike. I just can't understand why a manufacturer would want...

Have only seen the trailers for the programme up to now but will get it on catch up. It looked like a Giant E Prime the one that's produced in that lovely brown colour!

Well I hold my hands up d8veh and Crocker's, I was also one of those who wanted to believe in the Impulse motor and that the Evo RS had been reliably redesigned but was disappointed. But still stand by the fact that 50 Cycles at Loughborough have always provided good service making every effort...

Hi Hoodwink welcome to forum. Whereabouts in Staffordshire are you?

Welcome Ian

Yes during my short test ride at the cycle show I immediately thought that narrower tyres would make for a more responsive ride but maybe that would have an adverse effect on the bikes off road capability. There's no getting round it though, the R and M is definitely a quality machine and...

A great retirement present to yourself! Make sure you choose the right one for you though ☺

Welcome Steve, yes great forum, better than watching rubbish TV all night!

Nice bike Rob, definitely a gentleman's touring bike with nice hub gear! Shame about the thumb shifter failing though so soon on such an expensive bike, and 40 miles per battery on tour mode doesn't seem alot ? What's the average range in eco mode you've achieved so far?

That's a great saving but could do with the 500 watt/hour battery. I quite like the Yamaha motor but there's plenty praising the Bosch unit, what's your thoughts?
