I currently have an Abus steel-O-flex lock, which was great for my previous bike, but my new Freego has smaller wheels and the spokes are much closer together which makes it quite a fiddle to use as it only works on a couple of parts of the wheel where there's a slightly bigger space between the...

Giant LaFree Twist pedal-assisted electric bicycle £200 I have upgraded to a more powerful folding Freego so am offering this one for sale. It has a step-through silver frame, with 26" wheels, 3 speed gears, back wheel lock, kick stand, dynamo lights, rack, all in very good condition, 2002...

Can anyone explain what is the best way to condition a new battery. Freego have replaced my faulty battery & charger, but the instruction manual is not very clear. It is a 10 ah Li-Ion battery. Am I right in thinking I should run it down completely 3 times beofre just topping up? Thanks...

Hi, I bought a folding Freego a month or so ago and have discovered when I tried to recharge the battery for the first time that the charger is not working. A red light is coming on, but it should then show red/green when it's charging and the green when it's charged. I tried it for six...

I've recently bought a new electric bike and was wondering whether anyone can recommend a good insurance company - my home insurance doesn't cover it. It's for a Freego folding ebike which has full throttle. At the moment it's in my flat but I'm hoping eventually to keep it in the communal...

Hi, I'm looking to sell on my Giant La Free Twist Lite, 2002 model, bought in 2005 as i've bought a more powerful folder, the Freego, which I'm very pleased with so far - sailing up hills! Although it's only had very light use and is in excellent condition but I just want to check that...

Hi, I wonder if anyone has any experience of the Green Edge black Star 2 electric folding bike? I need something that will go in the boot of my car easily It's available at Electric Bikes direct in Battersea which would be accessible for me, and has a couple of good reviews on their site...

Still on the theme of health problems: I wonder if anyone can tell me which is the best folding electric bike. I'd like one that I can fit in my Honda Jazz and which can give me a fair amount of help (i.e. full throttle with minimal pedalling) on hills and when my legs are tired (ME sufferer)...

Hi I wonder if any of you have any suggestions about the best way of transporting an electric bike by car (either inside the car or on a rack). I currently have a Giant Lafree Twist, but may change to an Ezee Quando as I don't have a lot of leg power. I'm looking for something which is...

I currently have a Giant Lafree Twist, but I'm struggling with it a bit as I have a medical condition which means my legs are quite weak and tire easily. I was hoping it would help me sail up hills but I find I have to put in more effort than I expected from pedalling, and can only manage a...

I will hopefully be buying a 2nd hand Giant Lafree Twist Lite (ladies) very shortly. It is apparently in very good condition from photos, but can anyone give me any tips about anything I should look out for. Probably won't have that much time to make a decision, just a quickish test ride...

Does anyone know when the new Giant Twists will be available. I've had a trial run on a Giant Suede and quite liked it but have nothing to compare it with. It does seem quite heavy to lift, so was wondering if htere will be a new Giant Twist Lite or equivalent. Generally wondering how much...
