    Cheapest place for a reliable speed pedelec?

    Ignoring the somewhat unreliable "one man band" locations where they've built a custom e-bike. What's the cheapest (but reliable) location to buy a speed pedelec from? Ideally a Bosch crank motor system with hydraulic brakes. Thanks in advance

    Help! E-bike not sensing pedaling

    I purchased a custom built e-bike 2 years ago from someone (I can no longer get in touch with them though) and it's been fairly reliable. Recently however, it has stopped assisting when I pedal.

    Help! Replacement battery for e-bike?

    I purchased a custom built e-bike from someone on ebay a few years ago as it was quite cheap but that's all I could afford. That person is no longer on ebay and I can't get in touch with them in otherways. The bike has been really good and generally quite reliable. I use it every day for...

    Anyone using a Stromer ST2?

    I like the idea of a s-pedelec and the ST2 seems like a great quality bike. It is a lot of money but the reason why I like it is that it still looks like a cycle so there's no issue with me keeping it safe at my work's cycle room or in my house under the stairs. If it was an electric scooter or...

    For sale: Burisch Synergy GT250 Large Ebike (as new)

    I purchased this cycle a couple of months ago in preparation for moving to London and using it as my main mode of transport. I wasn't able to use it right away but when I eventually did, I realised that my fitness was a lot better than I thought and a normal road bike would be more suited for...
