    Are Ebike Suppliers immune to Sales Fever ?

    Where in the north Flatbat? When I started looking at ebikes, I thought there weren't any dealers. But after a month or two of searching on and off, I found a few.

    Urgent Help re electric bike law.

    Whatever the power of the blke, it is legal to possess it. This is not like heroin, where simple possession is illegal. All the OP has done is transfer legal ownership - possession - of the bike to the buyer. What the buyer does with it is up to him/her. Seems the buyer thinks he can somehow...

    Night-time Riding

    Thanks, I've been thinking about some night riding for a while. It's been raining a lot, but I expect there will be some cold, dry weather in the next month or two.

    Gadget show testing e-bikes again

    BH bikes come from the Basque region of Spain. If wiki is to be believed, much of the region gets very little rain, so the bike is probably not designed for - or tested in - the wet.

    3 x truly awful jokes for Xmas

    Paddy goes to the bike shop for a new battery. "That will be £300," says the assistant. "Shop down the road sells them for £250," says Paddy. "Go there then," says the assistant. "I would," says Paddy. "But they have none in." "Well," says the assistant. "When we are out of stock, ours are...

    Electric Brompton going strong

    Brommies do go on and on, a dealer told me he'd never had one in that wasn't worth fixing, not least because they fetch good money secondhand, so it's worth spending even a few hundred on repairs. A failure he'd seen a couple of time was the rear brake mount rusting through - occasional light...

    Holiday season bike rides

    I will be taking the Brommie to my family's Christmas gathering at a hotel in Southport. If, I mean when, I tire of the company, I shall go for a ride along the seafront, or estuary front, or whatever the locals call it.

    Kudos 2013 Performance Ebike Details

    Hats off to Kudos for investing in the business to produce their smart new range. One hopefully constructive observation: a couple of retailers have told me their customers are not keen on Kudos because the biggest batteries are only 10ah. Battery ah numbers are like gears, a lot of us want...
