    I have found the perfect electric cycle

    did you lose a relative in the last war or something just as daft to have something so against Kalkhoff's. I am in a position that if something goes wrong I will buy another. A bit more difficult with your pension.

    I have found the perfect electric cycle

    This is the problem here! I was told if you praise a bike on here you would get comments like yours! hundreds of thousands of Kalkhoffs have been sold and a very few that play up are blown out of all proportion here.

    Nigel01 introduction

    Hi All I am 56 years old and live near Cambridge. I have an obsession with electric bikes. I think my first was about 2004 (I think) when I had a Giant Lafree 24v in bright yellow! I then bought a Chinese cheap one and bent the frame (Ladies) in two days as I was too big for it! The dealer...
