I can't make my mind up if this is intended as a joke. Is it? I really don't know. The shield itself has very real comedy value and the narrator builds on that with, amongst other things, the insect on face comment. Perhaps the sequel will be a clip of someone riding along a busy high street...

I normally use a product called food. I take it first thing in the morning when I get up, have a bit more around 13:00, usually whilst watching the news and I finish the day off with a final dose in the evening. They do a great range in food these days and there is nearly always something to...

Very nasty.

Hi Frank I like the Trade Member Logo. It's just what is required, clear and easy for all to see. Good work!

I use Taptalk too no problems here. Works great so far.

A while back, 50C were selling throttle kits which could be fitted to their bikes, so I'm sure you would be able to have one on any model in the range. However, these throttles only power the bike along at a maximum of a brisk walking pace. They are intended for use when you are walking...

1) 2004 2) A friend's Giant at his home address. 3) Wanted to commute to work. Although I am reasonably fit and regularly run in low level competitions, there are just some days when the effort would be too much on top of a days work. With an electric bike, I can turn the assist right down...

I access Pedelecs through my iPhone 90% of the time, so via an App would be welcome. I've not had any problems using the browser to view this current version of the site.

It is very simple to remove the Panasonic battery on the Kalkhoffs. The battery is light too and just sits on a desktop type charger. Removing the battery takes no time at all and re-fitting is even quicker. I wouldn't let this sway you from considering a Kalkhoff / Panasonic crank drive bike...

The main criteria should be to make it simple and clear to identify anyone connected with the cycle trade. To this end, would it be possible to add the word, TRADE after the chosen user name of the trade member. That way it is clear for all to see. If the trader wants to provide further...

Agreed. Commercial posting adds to the forum, but they have to be transparent about their commercial activities. Especially so when recommending their own product.

I'd not realised that BanburyFrank was a trader and Xipi Bikes until I read this post. I just thought that he was promoting a local retailer with to whom he had no connection. If true, that's pretty disgraceful behaviour. It's quite clear that anyone with a trade interest should declare it and...

I have had a look at their business address on Google Maps / Street View and it seems to be a residential area with no shops. I may be wrong, but it leads me to suspect that these people are selling £1600 bikes out of their living room. That would put me off straight away without any further...

The one year guarantee on the Ebay bike will have the same longevity as the seller. That is, if he is a spiv with a container load, the guarantee disappears when he does. Alternatively, it might turn out alright. Its a gamble, and if you are comfortable gambling £750, go for it. I have noticed...

These batteries contain desiccated Panda. As Pandas become fewer in number, this essential ebike battery ingredient becomes ever more expensive. This in turn, forces, retailers to increase the price of their batteries. It was the research into Li-ion batteries during the early 1950s by...

If you have seriously steep hills to climb, it might be worth looking at a Panasonic drive system equipped bike.

From what I have learnt via this forum and through experience, these batteries have a life in terms of the number of charge / discharge cycles that they can handle. For example, if a battery has a stated life of 500 cycles, that means that it can take 500 episodes of being fully discharged and...

Taking an ebike as a whole, I would say that the battery lags behind the rest of the bike by a considerable margin. The battery is definitely the weakest link in the system, so I would expect to see the biggest investment in this area. I have no idea of time scale though. The bike minus...

Well done Ed. Perhaps the broken link to, "Buyers Guide" on this website could be pointed to your buyers' guide.

Where have you moved the Loughborough premises too Tim? The website still shows the old address.
