Where are you ?

Nice views! A budget of £1000 - £1200 in my view will get you 12-14ah, which I think is what you'll need. Choose a bike you like the look of and go try it, up some hills.

Ha! Like that. Sam, have you had a go on any electric bike yet ? I think you'll find yourself pedalling but feeling bionic. And you'll get a great deal of information that's impossible to describe. What part of London?

It's a pity Freego no longer contribute on these forums. David from Amps had a big part in the Raptor design and no doubt would comment on what a bargain that price is.

Thanks Pauline, but I hope you don't mean I suggested I want to hide my commercial interest! I certainly don't. :) I'm both an investor and Director of Juicy Bikes and spend most of my time working with just that company. I did also put many hours into BEBA and now hope to get more involved...

That outer is damaged beyond repair, but will be simple to replace. I think after the picture has been sent to the supplier a new one will take a couple of days to get to you.

Well you're just Crackers!

Thanks Crockers, that's very helpful. We are a small company, and quite proud of what we've achieved over the last seven years. We only have one person from the team (moi) checking these forums and responding to relevant posts, and I proudly admit to having a passion for electric bikes. So, in...

Fair point. The OP asked about two bikes after a long search, neither of which were mine, and I allowed my irritation of traders wading in with alternatives to spoil it for you - very sorry for that. What should be the appropriate etiquette to follow in that situation? To help me and hopefully...

Happy to be shown where I went wrong...

What is most worrying is that right now all the forum activity is between arguing traders. That simply has to stop and soon! It must be a turn off for visitors. Perhaps a refresh of etiquette and forum rules from Helen and Russ...

It may seem obvious to regular forum users, who the trade-connected spoof posters are, but not for visitors or newbies. Their actions undermine the trust and reputation of the Pedelecs Site. I've only just started posting again after an absence prompted by the borish monopolising of just a few...

Yes - it's helpful to see that difference: across the EU, one set of Classes of vehicle, then individual states with their own Rules on how each may be used locally.

Me neither. I'd sooner wait, patiently, through gritted teeth, for the DfT's response.

Your argument is with Government David. I sympathise and hope you can realise we are all in the same boat and on the same side. BEBA and the BA and the MCIA have all been lobbying through the appropriate government channels, attending meetings with the DfT, writing to MPs, collecting opinions...

Ha! It's open for all in the industry to join, now as the Bicycle Association of GB with specialist groups such as the E-Bike Group (mainly ex-BEBA). Nothing sinister about it. I'm sure the appropriate person will divulge all when there's something clear to say. Now, does anyone know how to...

Yep. And we had the chance to vote them out in May.

There is no single person responsible for taking decisions on these matters. BEBA and the BA have been and still are involved in lobbying and cajoling and actively trying (still) to make amendments and suggest improvements to what was announced back in March this year. But really, now it's...

Well said.

Gentlefolk. Stick to this Topic. We're way off the subject now and being of little use to Terry.
