Hi Dave, Service, local expertise and the availability of spare parts are all key. All the best David

Hi Alan I have emailed you. We have had a particularly successful year in 2012, and are almost out of stock of all our bikes. There are some se bikes due in in about 2 weeks but I think most of them have been pre ordered, apart from that we have some 906Alpinos but not much more. I...

I think that is because many 250W bikes on the market have a Nominal 250W with maximum output nearer to 600W. Hence when the bike is under load and needs more power to climb hills or to set off the 350W mark is passed in a split second. I wonder if the max output on a 350W bike is that much...

Thanks Tyler, much appreciated! Good luck with the eco Banaltra! All the best David

Hi Cakey, found it! The Gadget Show | Gadget Rally: Full Challenge video from The Gadget Show The Electric bike bit starts at 7 minute 48 seconds. As you say the Grace One is really designed for the street with some light off road rather than thick mud! The ElMoto it was raced against...

Hiya Lynda :) To be honest, I have absolutely no idea why we were sent the speed pedelec it will be swapped in time for Cycle UK at the NEC though. There was nothing on the carton to say it was a 350W speed pedelec or on the bike, although (apparently) I should have realised as the plate...

Found it! Yes I agree, the Grace One is not such a pretty bike, however I had a go whilst in Germany and wow! To be fair though it is not a pedelec as much as a fully blown electric motorcycle. We will not be selling the Grace One in the UK as it does not have a class here yet. All the...

Hi Cakey, I didn't know it had been on the Gadget show, do you know when that was? All the best David

Thanks Grasshopper, got it! Just to confirm the Grace MX sent to me as a sample was indeed a 45kph speed pedelec. Confusing, as it did not feel super quick but it did aid me to sustain a steady 28mph. However, because the bike had been designed and built to travel at such speeds, it is...

Hi Tyler, Good luck with the battery, very often a trickle charge does the job. As you say the Bosch system is fantastic but a very different riding experience from a Wisper, I have had the opportunity to ride the Grace MX for a week or so as we at Wisper have become Grace's distributor...

EBCO will have the AVE range in stock for 2013, but I think the prices are all £1,999.00 however please check the price as I may be mistaken. All the best David

I agree with Dave Lynne, Christine has a great range of bikes and will help you pick the best for you. Try as many different bikes as possible before making such an important decision. Good hunting, All the best David

Hi Grasshopper, please would you email me regarding the "earmark" so we can make sure we have put one aside for the correct person? All the best David

Thanks for that insight David. I think you need to ride the new Nuvinci in conjunction with an electric drive to understand how good the system is now, it has come a long way since the earlier version. The Nuvinci is really nothing like the Daf system as you describe it, I am not...

Love the idea Shemozzle, I will drop Russ an e-mail. No problems re the call of nature, I made it..... just!! :o The next event E4 and BEBA are attending is Cycle UK at the NEC Birmingham, where you can test a variety of electric bikes from Wisper, Storck, EBCO, Hero Eco, Batribike, Green...

Of course you are right NRG, it is expensive and a little more involved. Grace are really comfortable with the Gates/Nuvinci transmission for very high torque applications, as I am since trying it out, and want to make it work perfectly. The Gates/Nuvinci drive set up is perfect for faster...

Thanks Shemozzle, it was great to put another face to a name, as I have said on another post, we should have an I Spy book of Pedelecs members. Incidentally our Brompton conversion looked ACE! For more images of a great day out have a look at E4 Electric Bike Solutions on FaceBook! E4...

Alignment was the biggest problems Grace needed to control. It was found that even precision made frames could vary enough to throw the belt off one bike and be perfectly OK on the next. One of the parts developed by Nicholi of Germany was the adjustment mechanism to enable belts to be aligned...

Hi Garry, the speed pedelec in Germany has been a massive success, taking more and more people off public transport and out of their cars for the daily commute especially amongst the 20 and 30 somethings, not the usual audience for pedelecs. Having now experienced one first hand, they really are...
