I went along to Regents park show to try a couple of folders I am interested in. Meet up with David, well..You cant really miss him can you! It was a really nice low key and friendly event, easy to ride repeatedly the bikes you were interested in. I loved the Bosch powered AVE but will probably go for the Wisper Alpino because it is a proper folder and I hate to see a grown man cry (David)
Its funny watching people with not a clue trying the bikes, they all come back beeming..how many of these actually buy bikes I really dont know, But I would think it opens peoples eyes at least to the concept....
Loved the wisper SEL such a comfortable bike. The Stork is very impressive. Why Stork are still saying the drive is their own development I really dont get. As they use the Go Swiss-drive along with Green mover, Cube and others, and recently the new Specialised E bike. This is probably the future of hub motor drive bikes as it rivals the best crank drive units for quietness and grunt.....
Anyway lovely, day, lovely people, and best of all the weather held out for the event and my daughters 21st party that evening! Good luck today!
