    Looking to sell my ebike on ebay

    The other site to try is Gumtree.... now part of eBay but not an auction site and no fees to pay. It might be worth a try?

    KTM Macina Cross 10 CX4 for Sale

    Thanks so much for the advice. I will visit York to check out the Gazelle, it sounds interesting and a good trip out. However we do live in a very hilly area so I'll check out the Gazelle power. On reflection I think I'll follow suggestions from a few members... I think I'll hang fire and see...

    KTM Macina Cross 10 CX4 for Sale

    Hi Rob.. thanks for the info about your friend. I hear what you say about bike size... I cannot get my foot in the correct position on the pedals - they sit under my instep. - I tried a setback seatpost but it made the steering too light ( perhaps it's the fact I'm 18.5 stone and my weight too...

    KTM Macina Cross 10 CX4 for Sale

    To be honest I was mis-sold the bike..... I hadn't been on a bike for 45 years and loved getting back on a bike.... they said it was the right size but in reality it's too small..... I'm 6'7" and after the "honeymoon period" with it I find I can't get the pedal in the right position on my...

    KTM Macina Cross 10 CX4 51” Frame with “Comfort Cross Bar” in Titan Grey I bought this bike at the back end of last year and it wasn't used due to "health reasons" and I wouldn't take it out onto "salted roads". It has approx 150 miles on the clock and can only be described as "as new". The...

    Quality Step Through for the Larger Chap!

    Langley Moor is fairly near so I'll pop in to check out the Cube Delhi as suggested. Thanks I tested a Kalkhoff today and it made me realise my frame is far too small for me!

    A great suggestion.... I hadn't thought about a throttle. Any thoughts about a suitable model?

    Quality Step Through for the Larger Chap!

    I currently have a KTM Macina Cross 10 with comfort cross bar and with the Bosch Performance Line CX motor. (Only done 148 miles). I'm having a new knee in August and possibly the other one doing next year. I got the Bike to strengthen my quads as my knee is weak due to no kneecap. I've been...

    uk law on this e bike??

    If this was legal in the uk I'd certainly buy one.... it folds so easily.... far easier than the Dahon (non-electric) bike that I had some years ago.

    RearViz Wearable Cycling Mirror Review

    I have had one for some time.... I didn't find it very useful until I got new grips similar to Ergon GP3.... I could then wear the Rearviz with the mirror on top of my wrist like a watch... then you can see what's behind you ( but at a distance the image is very small ) I use this in conjunction...

    route /navigation aids

    I had the same criteria in mind so the first thing was to go onto the council website and see if they do any cycling maps... the ones I got from the councils in my area were superb... I got eight superb maps for free from Northumberland down to Durham. We are fortunate to have the C2C route...
