Hi Jazper, Type approval is like a detailed MOT test and is required by law if you are to use a motor vehicle on the public highway. If you were to build your own car or motorbike you would need to obtain a single vehicle TA before you could legally use in on the public highway. When a...

Good morning all, Another short report for your interest. On Monday, as a representative of BEBA, I was in a meeting with the DfT in London with Mark Loveridge Hero and BEBA, Alan Cater tech consultant BAGB and Phillip Darnton Exec Director BAGB amongst others from government and the trade...

No point in shutting the stable door now, that horse has well and truly volted! The message of this thread is to try as many bikes as possible after all the hoof of the pudding......

Dave is absolutely correct, of course. There is hardly anything that can be bought made up of many components that will not contain some Chinese parts, I am certain even top of the range Mercedes and BMW cars contain some Chinese made components. Our motors and frames amongst other parts are...

Hi Rob, That would have been Trevor, yes a good chap and very knowledgable. The Storck brochure is outstanding! all the best, David

Good afternoon Mike! Reading through your requirements again, I would certainly recommend the Storck Multitask. The bike is based on a standard pedal bike, more of a conversion than a dedicated e-bike. I am sure as well that Trevor and Ian would be pleased to work with you on an exact...

Hi MS666, Firstly thanks for your kind comments! The Multitask from Storck is a great bike and at £1,999.00 a good price definitely worth trying, and I know Ian will look after you well. The Wisper Classic is heavier at 25Kg (All in) and not quite as nimble but more powerful more of a...

Thanks Jazper, we will give it a try. I am looking forward to a stroll (however bracing!) along the seafront, so to end up in a good eatery would be perfect. All the best David

Hi Jazper, I am in Brighton tomorrow, taking my Daughter out for something to eat (she's at University of Sussex). Do you have any suggestions for a good pub lunch? Many thanks! David :)

Thanks Rob yes it is a very high quality bike and although it was expensive, the new motor set up is amazing. This is the best hill climber we have built and with the inclusion of all the new European components such as wheels and spokes the bike rides beautifully. The Kalkoff is a superb...

Oh you are a one Jazper! ;):rolleyes: All the best David

Hi Rob, thanks for the joke! It made my afternoon! ;) The 905Classic is based very much on our 906sel from last year, it is a smaller bike than the huge 905Alpino! At 5'7" on a good day, I find the bike very comfortable with the seat post extended about 6 inches. The new Wispers will be...

Try before to buy Mike! here is a good selection offered by the E4 group, Douglas is modeling the new German built Wisper 905Classic. Our new bikes will on our web pages by the end of next week. All the best and welcome to Pedelecs! David

We are striving to find better ways to get accurate market information, we will soon be making an important announcement which will immediately have a positive effect on being able to obtain better stats. It was a wiser man than I that said "There are lies, damn lies and statistics!!". We...

Whilst in Berlin recently I noticed that new cycle paths were being sited on the far side of hedge rows away from the roads. Perfect solution for all but the farmers! A natural barrier for noise, wind and of course traffic, plus it gives other benefits to the cyclists as they can now relate to...

I meant to add this image of the E4 crew at the venue in my first post! All the best David

Hi d8veh, this is the problem with such a relatively new market. We have to be steered by any figures we can obtain. I am positive the survey was not seen by the 1000's who by the cheaper bikes from Tesco and the likes, it was certainly a survey answered by enthusiasts who would be more likely...

Hi Alan is that based on number of bikes sold or revenue? Thanks David

I should say that we are having a particularly exciting day with respect to forward orders on top of a very good day for Wisper bikes we have so far sold seven Grace bikes 4 MX and 3 Easy, valued at £20,693 at retail prices, an average of £2,956 per bike. I truly believe there is a good market...

Following up on Fleccs comments, I thought this may be interesting. BEBA is a member of the APPCG so we get any announcements hot of the press.... Press release from All Party Parliamentary Cycling Group Cycling must be designed into all road infrastructure Posted on February 6, 2013...
