To list all your errors would be a full time job. In a spirit of constructive criticism lets start with your first sentence: "The Department for Transport’s consultation on whether or not e-bike motors should be permitted in the UK to put out 500W of power remains shrouded in mystery as to its...

I find this charity very intrusive and super annoying. I would very much welcome a new legislation limiting its activity.

By all means go for it. Bizango is a fantastic bike. Whatever you decide I am sure you will be happy with conversion.

Roads are terrible everywhere in UK. I would go with TSDZ8 if I were you. Just in case you were tempted to go off-road. Bizango is a proper MTB. Maybe you should consider some weekend trips?

Bizango is a very capable MTB. Do you use it as intended or for commute only? I have 29" mtb with front hub. Works very well, but not for off road.

Mark, is there anybody at CyclingElectric, who would sit down, read your articles and correct all errors?

I think bike you have offers much more than you really need. I suggest overpaying your mortgage.

Maximum seat height is 1180mm according to specs. Check on your bike if it is OK for you. If that is not high enough I don't see why you can't replace seatpost. Heaving that said this bike was designed to be a moped with pedals for legal reason. It is not optimized for proper cycling. It looks...

Why do you think saddle can't be adjusted properly on this bike? Why would you need 500W rated motor? PS Did you manage to get Polygon for £200? It was a good deal.

7kg, 35Ah, 52V battery is huge regardless how you look at it, so I was just wondering why somebody would need something like that. Multiday trips in Scotland and Wales sounds like a nice idea. What is the range you are getting and what is the problem you mentioned in first post?

What would you need such massive and illegal battery for?

One can learn there how speed affects risk of an accident and scale of injuries.

No story just yet. But there might be if you leave bike somewhere with seatpost worth £100 and quick release clamp. Don't make it easy for opportunist thieves.

May I ask about insurance? How much do you pay etc?

SP-12 has very good saddle mount mechanism. You can easily adjust saddle position to your liking. Edit: Make sure you don't use quick release post clamp.

Good explanation and fantastic adaptation from Grin Technologies. I will post this link when Bonzo will be back to moan about how unfair and discriminative EU law is.

Try racing lycra crew on a bike without motor. You will see how fast you are for real.

It is never easy for me :(

This guy was not wearing lycra. This guy was not on a road bike. Are you even sure this guy was on an e-bike? Title ways Haibike vs Hub Motor and this guy is just on an ordinary non electric bike.

8mph... my grandma is cycling faster he he
