Trex The most comfortable bike is a recumbent. But the position is new to most people and that puts them off. But once ridden they are superb road bikes(pants off road) Not recommended for a nervous newcomer. But great for the adventurous prepared to try other things

You really need to test ride some bikes to get a feel for them. Lots of choice in Bristol to test. Come over and spend all day trying bikes. Unfortunately you need a very good bike to have a cycle feel and speed. Or whoosh to fit the budget. (The forums best budget buy)

On a flat road with a good road bike I would expect you to be doing over 15 anyhow, so there would be no assist at that point. An illegal build with a small low power hub drive would give you a boost reducing effort for very similar top speed. d8veh is very knowledgable about this stuff. But...

Next questions are Lycra will you wear it? Hight and weight. Road or trail . Preferred stile of bike Ready made or converstion New or second hand. Ps welcome

Err £500?

Hi , With those bikes you sound like a serious peddler. It will be hard to get a legal bike that is worth the upgrade. The instant to 25 kph and holding speed up hill is nice but on the flat and down hill the electric adds almost nothing. If you hold anything like 15 mph average then you need a...

It's a shame they are only 1495 new now. With free delivery. Sorry but at 1200 you should have some more interest

Get those stabilisers up and let him go.

Can't complete as no electric bike now. But good luck

Thanks. I have half designed my next bike in my head. It's the zinc alloy soldering bit that really worries me. Oh and the split drive system , and the seating and steering and .... I must get out of my head and into the shed ;-)

Nice bike preferred it in black. Do you do commissions ?

Nice usp and marketing. I like it. Even if it's not for me.

Phill it's 17.4 mph. And top whack today of 45 mph. On six mile home run with 200 feet of climb. It could be faster when I get an electric bike again. Don't now the heart rate cycling but had an ECG with resting of 58 before I cycled home. :-0

Is it 26volts and quite an old bike(over three years) That will depress the value significantly. What frame size is it too?

Artsu remember we are all different. (Different types of crackpot that is);-)

Given D8veh helps with Oxigen his recommendation is hard to disagree with. But do try as many other bikes as you can.

On my bike I am always getting the nod. And schoolies often say cool bike. Ave 28 kph on way home today ;-)

Tony are we allowed to discus some one else's Lacey undergarments?

D8veh What do I do then on Monday I wore jeans and t shirt. Today it was Lycra ? Confused of Bristol ;-)

The difference is not to important to you unless you are particularly fussy. Big bear is the standard advice for value and epicures. Get one and find your horizons open up( we hope) They do take the effort out of cycling. You should try as many bikes as possible. Then you can decide for yourself...
