    forza exr

    flecc this is why i ask the question not everybody wants to get involved to this degree, there must be lots of people like me who want to buy a ready made item, and it would still look like a after market after thought. the possibility for a stunning design is greater at the initial design...

    Cyclist age

    Ian cheating always makes me laugh, even with a push bike you only need one gear to make it go, so any more must be cheating,surely the purists don't have more than one to make it easier do they:eek: mike ps perhaps intelligence enters the equation:rolleyes:

    Help needed with buying the right bike!

    BeckyH you could be asking for what we are all waiting for, it will probably never come unless flecc gets his tools out again,at your weight 150lbs lots of bikes will perform well for you, i think i would break your needs/wants into order of importance and work from there. i can...

    Powabyke Derestricted ?

    brooksey another thought has occurred to me the bike is sold as a 36 volt but in the instructions it states its also sold as a 48volt there is room in the case for 4x12volt batteries if the previous owner took the chance of damage and fitted four batteries this would account for the extra speed...
