It's a shame your not suited to the Bear as its a cracking bike. When I first got mine I found similar as you, but I just knock it down an assist level or two to get a smoother pick up on power to the speed I'm cycling. But the extra power is great for me, I love being able to get up any hill...

Nice weight loss, I'v not been using a diet as such but cut out bad stuff. My job stops me getting out as much as I might, but do take advantage when I can. My Big Bear is to enjoy the trip not to exercise, I have my Raleigh Royal for that, which I'v converted back to normal from electric.

First ride out for a while with a new job and a new home, but what a nice trip out it was too. Exploring places we've never seen before around the cleasby and Barton area, and making a note to explore another time. It still amazes me how good this Big bear is and how much more I'm enjoying going...

Oh and that's my cycle buddy on his E-go Max.

It's been a while, work ect, but wow I forgot how strong this motor is. Assist five as usual for an easy ride out, and when I pulled away from my street onto the main road the way it pulled me straight up to top speed really did take me by surprise. It's easy to forget when your unable to get...

It had crossed my mind that the full range must be used by some, but the worry of causing some sort of damage by over use has always been on my mind. I guess I should just use it as much as I want and not worry about it.

Thanks for that, it's more than likely going to be a one off just out of curiosity. It would be interesting to see how far we can actually get without purposely saving the battery.

Hi guys, We have a trip planned tomorrow to try and see what the actual maximum distance is that we can go with assist on our bikes. So I wanted to ask if taking the battery to its max where it cuts out is harmful in any way? This way we Could try for places even further away, but we won't if...

If the front was hooked up too I don't think there's a hill that could stop it. Get some knobblies on in a low gear and it's the bikes version of a jeep :-)

Ah, got you.

My memory isn't great but is there an LS version? With no cross bar so easy to step through also?

Ah sorry, I should have been more clear, I used the hard tail phrase as a way to describe the suspension forks. Iv never been interested in rear or fork suspension and miss used the phrase. The Big Bear Plus is indeed a hard tail with suspension forks, sorry for the wrong choice of words. I...

We love history and old churches and castle or Abbey ruins, that's sounds a great idea thanks. But it's more a day ride, at the moment we're doing a few hours at a time so that would be something for the future. A place id like to revisit is Uther Pendragons Castle ruins, but it's more for the...

Yesterday we found the oldest saxon church in the Darlington area, right next to the airport.

The saga of noggin the nog (remember that?) continues. Iv been out for two days one after the other, and each time I'v enjoyed this bike immensely. Today I used mostly assist level three and four and cycled above the speed of assist to get a bit more exercise, but it still felt great when I hit...

I thought I'd update you all on my Big Bear Plus. 75 miles covered and most of those on full assist and some throttle use to pull away quite sharpish. I'm now feeling very at home on this bike, with the sitting position being comfortable and feeling very stable. With this 17 ah battery...

Thanks for that Woosh, yeah I'll try that and see how it goes. Anyway an update on the lcd issue, I emailed Andy on Tuesday night late and he got back to me the next morning and i recieved the replacement battery today which is Thursday, as an issue with a certain batch of batteries had been...

If you wait you wont be disapointed, its a great bike and im sure its something simple to sort.

Ok will do woosh.
