Thanks for all your replies. I must admit I had some concerns about the position of the battery, but on the other hand my place of work is only between 5 and 10 minutes from home and I'll be able to take the battery out, wipe the frame dry and keep the battery indoors at both ends of the...

I've not only secured full-time permanent employment, I've even found an e-bike shop with an actual e-bike in stock! Sadly I've not heard of the maker before. Does anyone have any experience of Batribike bikes in general and the Batribike Vista S in particular? My nearest shop has one in stock...

What an absolute nightmare! This is precisely why I don't want to let the shop replace my Kalkhoff Pro Connect i9's motor under warranty - I'll be stuck in a never-ending horror show of taking my bike into the shop to have the motor replaced every 3 months, resulting in having no reliable form...

One final question before I leave you in peace! During one of my previous e-bike hunts earlier in the year (pre-Covid, I think), you mentioned future iterations of the Rambletta would have front and rear disc brakes. Will the bikes you'll be building in October have this specification? Thanks...

Thanks for confirming that. I'll get an order put in through the online shop and keep my fingers crossed that the cycle-building fairies favour you with a visit before October! (This is from someone who has worked in gardening roles at schools, where teachers returning from...

Thanks to Woosh and PP100 for getting back to me. Are Woosh still accepting orders for the Rambletta? I'd like to get my name on the list if possible with the sincere hope of getting one before the temperatures drop too much for my poor old knees!

A question for Woosh. I know the Rambletta draws quite a bit of attention on here, so I'll ask here instead of by e-mail: Is there any chance Rambletta stocks will come in sooner than October, as currently listed on the Woosh website? I've finally got a job, though it's sadly only a 6 month...

Number of charges is something I always take into account. Ideally I'd hope to charge only twice a week at most, but it seems most of the e-folders currently in stock have only 6Ah or 8Ah batteries which pretty badly affects the value for money in my eyes - with potentially daily charging the...

That's also a concern. I've checked the electric bike shops nearby - predictably none of them stock rear hub e-folders and only about half of them stock any kind of e-folders (the cheapest being £2000!).

My thoughts exactly. From what I understand of the job I'd have 3 relatively short but hilly daily commutes of about 8 miles with the other 2 days featuring longer round commutes of anything up to about 20 miles (I'm not sure yet of the exact sites for those days). That 8.8Ah battery's a...

That's really useful, thanks. Not such a bad price for a potential "desperate alternative" purchase, either. :D I just need to decide whether to cash in some of my Premium Bonds to get the bike now and possibly not get the job (meaning I could've waited for any of my other options to come back...

I've already found quite a few classified ads online for broken e-bikes, so I'm wondering if I should make a list of the brands to avoid in case they've all broken just during lockdown! :D

If I do get the job then things look likely to move quickly (should have an interview next week, possibly starting the job the following week) so I'll need to get my hands on a folding bike pretty quickly as well. I'd actually firmly decided to get the Rambletta, but as usual I'm back in the...

The Kudos Spirit seems to fit the bill, but I looked at Kudos' Ebay store (under Rally Design) and they don't have it in stock on there despite the "in stock" status on the Kudos website - which I assume isn't their focus at the moment having read elsewhere on the forums about their reasons for...

Thanks for that - I did have a quick look on the forums before posting but somehow completely missed your post! I have to say I'm also a bit distrustful of the "in stock" status on that website...

After an absence of a couple of months, I'm back with the usual tale of "I may soon have a new job, so which e-bike shall I get" ... the difference this time being that every e-bike I look at is currently out of stock! My question is simply: does anyone know where I can get a folding e-bike...

Edit for clarity: The post in question has a link to an English version of the post, but I'm asking about information about the manufacturer events as a whole! I found some useful information in German on the Pedelecmonitor blog regarding the seemingly regular manufacturer events Derby...

Number two on my list - the 8Ah battery wouldn't be a problem as I'm only likely to use assistance on climbs (or windy sections ... or if I'm feeling lazy!).

It looks like it's the black lever on the grey assembly on the right handlebar. https://wooshbikes.co.uk/2020/rambletta/rambletta-throttle.jpg

Many thanks to everyone who has taken the time to reply - it's always nice to see how conversations really take off on posts like these! To add a few thoughts of my own and explain why I posted on here rather than simply looking online for myself... Seemingly all of the e-bike shops within...
