Hey,

I found this on ebay:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/271818786256?ssPageName=STRK:MESINDXX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1436.l2649

It's all d8veh signature, I can recognise the custom rack & bag, the custom wattmeter holder and a neat finish.

However, I can't recognise how can this bike could cost £2000 to build. So surely it's not d8veh selling the bike, but someone who is trying to make money out of it.

Speculation on clean customs bike? I wonder :)
Dave's gotta make some cash to buy his train ticket to the Gadget Show studio :p

Oh dear.

A Kraken is a £400 bike, and a 250W hub kit and battery isn't a lot more.

If the back story is true, the OAP who paid £2,000 for it has been badly ripped off by somebody.

Weird,
he took the photo apparently in Worcestershire yet the bike's location is Monaco?

it reads like a hard sell to me.
is it possible that the seller prefers you to call his mate's mobile phone to do a deal?

That's Saneagle's old bike. He traded it for a camper van about a year ago. It has a 20Ah 36v battery and a 500w Bafang CST motor.

We wondered what happened to it. It was a nice bike. Everybody that tried it liked it.
