It seems the recurring advice for any newbie on the forum is 'try before you buy’ :), hence my question – does anyone know of any e-bike shops within a striking distance from Sheffield, apart from Juicy Bikes in Buxton?
And yes, I did google around…

I can recommend these as well, It was a shop i visited before buying.
Its in the centre of Long Eaton, no parking in front of the shop but there is a small side street on the same side just beyond where i parked.
The shop has a massive range of ebikes and the owner could not be more helpful.:)

An hour's train journey from Sheffield is Loughborough, where you can find 50Cycles, give them a phone call first to make sure they are ready for you.

Trouble with 50cycles, not much choice to try out.
Not knocking 50cycles at Loughborough, i got my Kalkhoff Agattu from there in December but i tried other bikes elsewhere before i made my choice.

We've expanded the range recently with the new Oxygen Emate and Diva, the plucky little Freego folder and there's also a Gocycle there at the moment, as well as a wide range of Kalkhoffs, including some bargain 2010 models. We'll be moving over to our new premises next week - if you've ever visited our old place in Little Moor Lane, you'll be most impressed by our new home, it is a dramatic improvement in every way - parking, size, location, space, heating. There's a serious hill nearby as well in the shape of a bridge over the Midland mainline (we're near the station).

Where have you moved the Loughborough premises too Tim? The website still shows the old address.

Yes, the old address is correct for the time being, the move should be complete by this time next week, perhaps earlier for demonstrations.
