Hi all,
I'm about to buy a new bike (never had a new bike before, very exciting!) for my new job. It is a 9-mile fairly hilly trip each way. I'm going to be buying it using the CTW scheme and I'm on a fairly tight budget. I looked at the Powacycle Salisbury but am not keen on the idea of the 200w motor. The Powabyke X6 looked like a fairly good option but it seems to have a shorter range than most (only up to 20 miles on pedal assist).
I think I've decided on a Juicy Bike Sport 2011. Hopefully I'll be able to test ride one at Atmosphere Bikes in Bristol this weekend. It looks like a huge bargain for £765 (which works out only around £450 with the CTW scheme) and the spec looks good. Any opinions from people who are more experienced with these matters would be greatly appreciated!
