When one of my hips started hurting, a few years ago, I realised it was the twisting movement as I swung my leg over the crossbar that caused the problem. I, too, thought that all and sundry would be watching me on a bike without a crossbar!! It just doesn't matter. I had a 'ladies' bike for two...

http://electricbikereport.com/wheres-bixby-electric-cargo-bike-adventures-with-a-dog-her-human-video/ This came to my in-box today. An interesting interview.

Yes, very strange. Portsmouth, West Sussex?!* The listing has now ended....

If it had not been for Woosh supplying a Santana at £625, I probably would still be pedalling to work with aching hips etc. I did 5000 miles in two years, with two new tyres and some brake pads/blocks. The chain was original when I sold the bike for £120, and it's still being used. (One new...

I noticed today, on the Juiced Riders website: http://www.juicedriders.com/ that a frame and forks are listed for sale. I enquired, and Tora Harris took the time to get back to me, asking how many people would be interested, which is why I have posted on here. He also pointed out that he was...

I can recommend this site, which seems to be run by one man, who is doing his best to promote electric bikes of all types. http://electricbikereport.com/ He does not seem to have a commercial angle, he just likes electric bikes, can see how clever they are, and wants to let everyone know. I'm...

This is the company I bought from. I received the wrong battery first of all, but they were quick to put that right. The lead that came with the charger had an un-fused, moulded plug on it. Not sure that was legal, but I changed it for a fused lead. I get sparks when I connect the charger. I...

There seems to be no mention of the battery capacity, or even the size of the wheels. Seems rather like a London marketing approach. The Ezee Sprint Primo, Woosh Sunbear and Emu bikes all tell you more, give you more and cost a lot less! I would advise you to keep looking, until you get the hang...

Thanks for that. I hovered, looked at 'alert preferences' and they are all ticked. Not sure what else I can do. Just have to log in a bit more often. Cheers.

I think I've managed it, but is there any way of knowing if someone has replied to you, without logging in every day and checking? Is there an email facility for notification? I had a message from someone, but it was a month before I found it.

Pedals: These are fine. However, the left pedal very quickly developed an annoying “click”, especially when applying pressure. It was a click that I could hear but, more importantly, I could feel through my shoe. It then developed into a double click, and sometimes a triple click. It felt to me...

This is a site I found when looking into 3-speed bikes: https://societyofthreespeeds.wordpress.com/ After using my Santana for about a year, I realised I just did not need a lot of gears. A lady with a Freego I spoke to, who does more miles than me, said she uses just two gears. That decided it...

Hey, that could be me! I'm an older cyclist, who's fed-up with constant gear changes. I now have the Nexus 3-speed, and it's so smooth and convenient. I spotted those D-Cycles on EBikes Direct the other day. Very good price. I would say they are close to what this person is looking for.

p { margin-bottom: 0.25cm; line-height: 120%; } Well. I've finally got my bike on the road, with all the bits fitted that I wanted. My Woosh Santana did me well, covering over five thousand miles over two years and three months. It was used virtually every day of the year. Having used it for...

Well, I think I went the same route as you, but I never saw these! I found Dutch Batavus bikes, Lorri etc, Donky Bike, Urban Biba and others. I tried finding a frame on AliExpress, but no cargo frames, so I bought a frame almost identical to my Woosh Santana, but it will take a 3-speed, and I'm...

This is the ODK tube compared with a copy, as I understand it.

Well, a straight conversion of the price in the USA makes them £1400 starting price, so I would have thought they could approach that if imported in bulk, although they are sold out at the moment, which must be a good sign...

I tried for a frame on its own, but no joy. I have found Chinese copies already, which Tora pointed out, do not have the same strength in the frames. I suggested to Woosh that they add something like this to their range. There just isn't anything in the UK like it. I know Ezee have cargo bikes...

Thanks for that D8veh. I did wonder about the PAS, as there is nothing showing in the pictures. I have been watching the Woosh site, but the kits are still pending, by the look of it. The Panda Man has been very helpful. I have bought my frame from China, so I can build the 3-speed machine I...
