Must admit, as a prospective purchaser of said bike, I'm a little disappointed having waited around for this review. I still have lots of questions. Why was battery flat? Is gearing ok or is it under geared? what sort of realistic range will I get? what was test ride route so I can view on...

Gas turbine for topping up the batteries!!

Any idea when we are going to see this review??? I'm trying to reduce my shortlist and Christmas is getting close!

I too utilise Memory Maps on an android tablet, PC and a fully waterproof Adventurer 3500 GPS (mounts on handlebars). As stated, they give you a moving map display whilst recording positional data. This data can then produce elevation and speed profiles and an overlay track/route back onto your...
