Halfords 10% off everything
I can recommend Halfords Green Stuff tyre service, I have not had a single puncture in 2 years on my 1000 W powerful bike, I found them as cheap if not cheaper than Amazon for most things, they are really trying

My bikes stopped
I have this bike!, I bought it second hand without a working battery as a bit of a project, it is a thing of beauty but I never got around to it lol, the build quality is far and away better than the new bike I bought when I came into some money unexpectantly {always the best way}

Ecoelectric Bike
So nice to hear so many good things about the Rush Trek, I bought one that had a faulty battery second hand thinking to make a project out of it but when I got the chance to buy a brand new ebike I never got around to starting it, I just love the actual bike, it is so well made and a beautiful design, I have found a brand new battery for it for £150! but I will possibly just sell it in the classifieds here, Im not much of a mechanic lol, it is a shame for it to be wasted as it is in great condition, I also found a bad connector that may have been the problem AFTER I put the original battery in the skip, so it may just be that. I have just seen a post by a see a member here who has found a more powerful battery that would replace the original for around£200???

Case studies - how has your electric bike changed your life?
I am still fairly new here but bought my CStealth I am still new here buy bought my Cyclotricity Stealth 1000W 6 weeks ago, and I have been meaning to drop a post on here since then, the problem is I have been out on it ALL the time lol so didnt get around to it until today, my brakes are being replaced lol. I am 64 and have been off and on sickness benefit for the last couple of years and have been through all the horrible stuff that brings including being thrown off it three times and having my living money cut back to the barest benefit payable. I ended up living in a bedsit and because they stopped giving people bus passes at age 60 I could not even afford the bus fare to visit my mum in her care home, I had to walk and because of my health problems it almost killed me. Now they have decided to listen to the my specialist and decided I actually AM sick and reinstated my claim for normal Benefit. The backdated money they owed me paid for the Stealth, it has changed my life completely. For starters I saved me the £6 per day it used to cost me to go to the home and jobcenter and the weekly shop taxi, I am better off than I have been for years AND I am getting exercise every day. The bike flies up ALL hills even on just the thumb throttle {If I want to do that} and it is simply amazing, I can go virtually anywhere on it. Do anything you can to get one, they are lifesavers

Case studies - how has your electric bike changed your life?
I know exactly what you mean, I bought the Stealth myself and now I wouldnt do without it, I can do ALL my shopping on it without any noticeable strain on the performance at all, even carrying very heavy shopping. The brakes are awful but thats for another post, I would recommend the Stealth to anyone. Im glad I wasnt alone being very moved to find out the bike could change my life so much

Hello all, I'm glad to find this site, I have just bought a none working Electric bike and want to get it up and running. I know nothing about them but I think I have scored lucky because the bike I just bought is a "Rush - Trek" and is beautifully made, I fell in love with it as soon as I saw it. It is in great shape and the wiring all looks great but I'm realistic and I am prepared for unpleasant surprises lol I am a {almost} 64 yo Commercial Artist and cartoonist when I am working but have been sick for almost 2 years with tummy swelling problems that mean my lungs are being compressed by my tum and I am very quickly out of breath hence the move from my mountain bike to the e bike. Thats about it, I look forward to reading more here
