    Help! Orbea Keram 29 10 or Bergamont E-Revox 7 EQ

    I am not an expert but I thought I would mention a few things based on my buying experience a few years ago. You did not say whether you already tested both bikes. Although they seem to have a similar geometry I would ask for extended test of both to see which one fits you better and feels more...

    pain in the ...back

    I thought I would provide an update on the thread I started here a few years ago. A lot of you kindly came up with lots of tips and I tried a few but was still struggling with pain and as a result did not do much cycling. I was in fact going to sell my ebike as it did not make much sense to keep...

    Road legal recumbent e trike

    Hi I was hoping to buy a second hand trike and convert it or get a Performer electric trike if they start making one next year as implied by some videos on youtube. But yesterday I stumbled upon this thread...

    pain in the ...back

    I think the cycling position feels rather comfy for me but can try different settings. Still think is is all about suspension but can't afford another bike.

    Thanks. From what I read Suntour requires at least just as much clearance as Thudbuster if not more.

    pain in the ...back

    Hi A year ago I bought a Scott Tour 20 crossbar ebike which I enjoyed using but was not able to do it often because of back problems. I stopped cycling to work because walking seemed to be better for my back - work in IT so too much sitting. It took me a long time to get back to shape. Once the...

    new electric bike project on Kickstarter

    Yes, Freygeist is a great bike too. On the one hand having a battery hidden is great but on the other not being able to remove it might be a problem in colder climates.

    new electric bike project on Kickstarter

    It's a great looking bike designed with attention to detail. The battery looks very stylish. You might try publishing on other websites like cleantechnica, treehugger, gizmag etc. I hope you succeed. All the best!

    Wisper 905 Torque or Alternative?

    Regarding the price at cyclingmadeeasy you can always ask them but I doubt there is a catch. I bought my bike from them - on sale - paying £200 less than at other shops. It's an established high street retailer with quite a big choice of bikes. I suggest you try a few before you buy.

    Looking for advice

    I think it is worth pointing out that some ebikes are rated for 100kg max rider weight. I would check that before making a decision. While some dealers are still happy to recommend them for heavier cyclists I am not sure where they stand if issues crop up. Bluelabel and scott have some pretty...

    Raleigh Motus or Kalkhoff Agattu 7G?

    Worth checking the listing here: http://www.pedelecs.co.uk/forum/forums/manufacturer-dealer-promotions-and-offers.13/ There is an ex display ktm on offer. Max (rider and luggage) load on ktm is lower than on scott but if you don't exceed it you could get yourself a bargain.

    Ford MoDe:Flex

    Wheels seem to be bigger than on folding bikes. I like it a lot.

    Almost decided. Or have I?

    I was going to buy a bike with a min 60Nm until I tried a few bikes and 50 turned out to be plenty for me (motor made by shimano, not bosch). You really need to try and see for yourself. Cx is usually found on mtbs, for commuting you might want a diffrent type of bike.

    Is 140kgs to heavy?

    If I remember correctly my scott e sub tour 20 croosbar has a max load of 140 kg. It does exceeds your budget but it is built to last.
