I have just bought the Green Edge Silverado and I am very impressed with it's quality and ease of ride. I am a small female so this bike is perfect in terms of getting on it and position of handlebars for a nice upright posture. Hills are no problems what so ever and the ride is very smooth. My only qualm is that the gears are too low :confused: so you are peddling air down hills and it doesn't feel like you are in control but hopefully another update of the Silverado will take this into account.

I rang Green Edge about the low gears and they have offered to put in higher ones for me for £80 plus VAT which I think will be worth it. Their support has been excellent. I bought my bike from The Electric Transport Shop in Camden after trying out several different bikes.

I managed to get an ex demo model Silverado for £700 ( new is £899) so very happy about that. They forgot to give me a second key for the battery and a tool kit but I went back the next day, after I called them to point this out, and they supplied both. They also let me return a bike lock that I bought from them as you can only get this bike insured with a gold series lock. The shop only had bronze locks in but they refunded me straightaway. They were slightly vague about my warranty rights on an ex demo (I got 6 months in the end) but overall their customer service was great and I would def recommend their shop and of course Green Edge and the fantastic Silverado!
