dont you get on with it paul?

having the same problem on my sony experia z4

as above really, ive had some great advice about getting my first ebike but when i got to reply to a message using my phone its virtually un-useable, not sure if its my phone or the website layout

hopefully ill get to test a few out tomorrow!

thanks Rob sounds good!

thanks, ill be in touch

looks a nice again but doesnt give any details about range etc or am i missing something

i understood anywhere between 12-15,000 but could be wrong

that looks like and sounds like it could do the job, just the range needs to be sorted out but like i say im not put off by buying 2 batteries. if i were to get this serviced once a year would that generally surfice?

if youre referring to taxi then all zones, green badge

thanks flecc

as embaresing as it is to say trex, that sounds like me, maybe give it a birthday once a year but thatll be about it

Thanks Flecc. you are right, i guess in these early stages trial and error will always come into play. from the small amount of research ive been doing ive come across the below bike a cpl of times and it seems to have everything i need, it even has a super battery which goes even further than the regular, may i ask your opinion please? https://amps.bike/product/wisper-705-torque/

i dont mind spending 2-3k, i dont mind buying a spare battery, i just want something that works, doesnt go wrong very often and is sufficient for my requirements, how hard can it be?!... (Very it appears)

i just want something that doesnt go wrong, or at least reducing the chance as much as possible

Robf, the terminology 'Workhorse' is exactly what im after. i currently drive a VW Golf, ive had her 8 years and put on 120,000 miles and shes not once let me down (yet). what, if any, is the equivalent of this in the ebike world please? Thanks

good point well presented, its like a minefield out there!

that is true ian, unless of course the batteries tire with age (like us all) but im sure that is over years where as ill hopefully get fitter with in months

it does look a nice bike ian no denying that, but im still in the early days and just want the most powerful one now by the sounds of things which your one isnt far short of, i will bear it in mind and thanks for your posts Lee

indeed it is flecc, and tomorrow i hope to be doing exactly that! Cheers

just let me know the model and i can do a search on tinternet, cheers!

Appreciated, thanks Rob.

thanks Ian. im going to drive down to hendon and ride from therre, this should save me around 250 a month, and get me fit! i need a bike with QR front wheel so it fits in car, a rear hub and one with a strong motor/battery or two as the case maybe. also a sml requirement of mine is to put a knowledge board onto the handle bars, surely this cant be a too hard a thing to achieve.. thanks for your replies Lee

Thats interesting and thanks for the post Ian. i was really on the understanding that you could adjust the assisstance levels, as they say they have 4-5 levels and if it was up to 100% i thought the bike would do all the work. i thought i could get the bike to travel at 15mph for the entire journey of the battery i.e 50miles without any input from me, this is obviously not the case then, maybe i hd better have another think!!

i have sent a PM with my email. thanks again for the offer, i will see how my week pans out and if time allows could spend the day up there on thursday as im sure im going to find it really interesting!
