Thanks Velocitygirl and welcome to the Forum. That's exactly our target market. We have designed the bike to be light weight and easy to fold with a magnetic catch to keep the bike in the folded position. We have not heard any decent reports on the Brompton and believe that there is a market...
Hi Crockers, the carbon Wayfarer it's going well thanks but is unlikely to be ready until the summer of next year.
We have three new alloy bikes for next year too, these are more aimed at the mass market. All with 400 or 600Wh in-frame batteries with a new mid motor that we have been helping to...

We found the same Nev, the Fazua motor is perfect for a fit rider who may need help keeping up with the group on a Saturday fun run.
Our Carbon bike was working out at about £9,000 I am not sure there is a big enough market for such machines!
It was good project it taught us a lot and bought...

Hi Kiwi,

Maybe you could give me a little advise? We are just putting the finishing touches to our Wayfarer range (Summer 2019). We have decided to run 27.5"...
The net effect is simply to move the bike builders out of China to other countries in Asia. The first Taiwan built Wisper bikes will be arriving in a few weeks. The cost is a little higher but there are several advantages, one of them being we can now fit Schwalbe tyres for a few pence more than...
Hi Mike, we are not sure either, however the damage done to many hard working ebike businesses in Europe is accurately calculable and huge. Those within the group will be pushing for compensation.
We think and hope that is change of position is the EBMA taking a more sensible approach, not...
EBMA Requests Cancellation of E-Bike Import Registration
Laws & Regulations
BRUSSELS, Belgium – In a letter, dated 8 October, the European Bicycle Manufacturers’ Association (EBMA) has informed the European Commission that they wish to withdraw their request for registration of imports. This...

Some great, news from our group's solicitors.
"EBMA hereby withdraws its request for registration of imports of e-bikes from China.
All the best, David
Hi Alan, there will certainly be some good deals on Black Friday. If you drop me a line I will be able to help. All the best, David

All the best, David
