    Help.....What Tablet.....

    Rubbish!! There is always an "expert" who isn't!! I am happy with my iPad (2) 32Gb and have plenty of space left on it. It is versatile and can do things a laptop can't (apps for various things) starts instantly & just does it! I have the 3G version as I travel and cannot connect via WiFi...

    Bike cover for cycle carrier

    Plenty of wind resistance with a large white slab of motorhome! It should be OK as it will be tucked in low behind.

    Bike cover for cycle carrier

    Anyone know of a very lightweight cover to fit an electric bike (battery behind seatpost). It is a Volt Pulse. I will be fixing it t the cycle carrier that fits on a towball. I want the cover to keep the wet off when traveling. I have a large tarpaulin, but it is too unwieldy and my current...

    How to find bikes to try out

    An update.... I spent last Saturday trying bikes in London. Dermot in Battersea at ebikes direct was helpful, but there was nothing that was "just right". Lyle at electric bike store was also helpful and has put up with all my questions since. I eventually decided on the Volt Pulse. It should...

    How to find bikes to try out

    Disappointingly there are no Oxygen bikes anywhere until the end of December. I wonder how they can stay in business if there is no stock. I had just about decided on the emate city or the Diva if it was too large so I am back to the drawing board. I will try to find a Volt Pulse to try. I am...

    How to find bikes to try out

    I have had a look at the Cromer shop, but they did not have a FreeGo full sized bike in, I don't think. I did ride a Hawk once and it was a comfy ride. The Eagle is a better bike, I think? I really don't like the U shaped step through frames so I do need to try the size of the frames. The...

    How to find bikes to try out

    I like the look of a couple of your bikes, where are you based and is it possible to try any out for size? I am very much a novice in this and am doing too much research and getting more confused! I suspect 26" wheels would be best so the size is kept down. Obviously the lighter the better as...

    How to find bikes to try out

    I have been researching bikes and kits and have a plan A and a plan B now. Plan A is to buy a reasonably priced bike that will suit my partner and I to share. We are unlikely to need to use it at the same time so this gives us the opportunity to buy a better bike. So the issues are the size...
