    What bike is best for learning the Knowledge of London (black cab) on?

    You're very welcome. You could try several brands at the show. Thursday continues 'til 8pm but Friday finishes at 5pm. If you head straight for the test track you could try several in an hour to help narrow down your choice. (We have a show offer and I'm sure others will too). No pressure!

    Commuter Bike for hills

    Hi Rob You should have a try when you get the chance of a torque sensor bike, combined with hub motor, like the new WisperTQ. We've got our system in final development: it's definitely not clonky and proving extremely good in the hills. If you live near come for a try - I guarantee you'll be...

    Commuter Bike for hills

    You really don't need a crank drive for the hills. We've known this for years, but the marketing spend in support of crank drives has been overwhelming and difficult to contra-dict. Do take a test ride on a variety of bikes and systems before you decide. By the sound of it you are quite tall...

    Freego Eagle questions

    Is this the first time you've noticed the red light on the charger? I mean, the first time it has become red?

    Cyclists soon more important than car drivers

    Growth of cars in China comes with a growth in general affluence (it's always good to see people taken out of poverty). However I think we're all, globally, beginning to appreciate cleaner air and lungs over fancy cars and jams (traffic jams, that is).

    Cyclists soon more important than car drivers

    And in China, where a similar time ago cyclists outnumbered drivers massively, now cities are filling up with cars - hopefully the brakes on that trend will be applied, well before they learn the same lesson.

    Freego Eagle questions

    To set up the gears properly takes a little skill (easily learned), but this may be a quick fix... Turn clockwise to help onto higher gears, to the left to help onto lower gears.

    Freego Eagle questions

    You may also have a faulty charger. Does the charger get warm (or even "hot") when you charge? - it should. Your gear issues will take just a few minutes to solve, but you could try turning the capstan adjuster on the derailleur anti-clockwise 1 or 2 turns. Really, you should pop in for that...

    Shipping an Ebike/ Taking it on holiday

    I did come across someone who had their ebike regularly carried in the hold when travelling, describing it as their mobility aid. They were in our workshop for a major repair under insurance after the airline had pretty much destroyed the bike though... (wasn't a Juicy) I wouldn't risk it!

    Four miles of sunshine

    Okay. Don't want to commandeer this thread, but... How about Barbra... (as in Streisand) ...who sings, during Don't Rain on my Parade, the following... I gotta fly once, I gotta try once, Only can die once, right, sir? Ooh, life is juicy, Juicy, and you'll see I'm gonna have my bike, sir! At...

    Four miles of sunshine

    This is all getting way off topic! We should be talking about sunshine and sheds. Sister Lucys are doing it for themselves, whilst others are trying to blame it on the sunshine. All we need is love and a street to dance in... or ride along, humming tunes.
