Thanks guys Thanks all for the responses which would seem to be pointing me firmly toward the Augutta or similar from Raleigh, for the suspension feature. Another quick question as I'm unlikely to try before I buy. If I measure the frame of my current bike from under the crank bearing to...

Hi all, I'm in the Forest of Dean where we have a lot of off-road gritted tracks. I'm using a hybrid non-electric bike now, which is good for exercise but hard work as I've rocketed up to 17st since stopping smoking. I'd like to extend my range and comfort . I look at all the Kalkhoff...

Thanks Tony, they both look better quality than the original Jeff

I shredded these this morning as they collided with the spokes of the rear wheel. It's a 7 speed Shimano SIS unit which looks fairly normal and the unit fits directly on the IZIP frame with a threaded bolt. Can anyone advise whether I can substitute any directly connected 7 speed derailleur...

Stopped a year ago Age 57 and cycling but became aware of my lack of fitness when moving to a much more hilly area. That and general concern for health persuaded me.

Izip performance Delmumbles, Hi. I was relating my experience of the CB26 here recently and had some concerns that I might not be getting a full battery charge. What I find is that after charging, even leaving the charger attached overnight on a new battery, when I connect to the bike I only...

Calculating the gradient Thanks Flecc, I figured out a way to calculate the overall gradient, which for the most part is a former coal hauling track. It's part of the Forest of Dean cycle route BTW. Thinking about the old OS benchmark on my house , I couldn't find any records of the...

Fat man on a bicycle Hi Jimmy & Paul, Yes, these were constant climbs. I live in a valley so everywhere is uphill. Talking to an electronics engineer neighbour yesterday, he suggested that although the battery charger may be indicating a full battery it might be worth leaving on...

I bought an Izip CB26 for a lot less money which I'm not entirely sure is working properly. There are 3 green and 1 red led, the latter indicating a low charge state. I had the supplier replace the original battery under guarantee, but there's no difference. After charging it never fully...

Izip 2008 new model Here's next year's EVO model from Izip which looks pretty capable: YouTube - iZip Express Electric Bicycle

How about the BugE? YouTube - BugE Electric Vehicle 2nd Run

IZIP and heavy rider A heavy bike and me at around to 16st making about 140kg in total. Hills are hard work but a lot easier than hauling myself. Yes, I'd like a better bike like the Forza but at a quarter of the price and taking my need for a little exercise into account, it will do for the...

Too fast? These new models from Ezee certainly look impressive, especially the hill climbing potential as a 16% gradient is pretty much the norm for my journeys which are mainly off-road on the designated cycle routes in the Forest of Dean. I was wondering though, whether 22mph off-road was...
