I'm sorry Peter, I can see how your post ties in now. You effectively keep fit in Winter by employing the exercise unit that you have bought . I misunderstood. What would be really good is if those roller units charged the battery as you are pedalling. Perhaps we should go on Dragons Den with...

:oops::oops: Sorry!

Here is a piccy of Juicy Lucy, in our garage so not such a good photo I'm afraid.

I wouldn't worry about the hills. I was worried sick about it because I live on a steep hill and our lane exits onto a 3 mile hill. When I test rode the Juicy it was on a really steep hill and I rode up it in 3rd gear with what seemed to me to be very little effort on my part. I am older than...

Again, I can only advise as I see, but the Lite only has the choice of one colour - Olive. The Classic gives you more choice. It may be different with the 2016 range of colours and if you like olive, it's not a problem! It doesn't have the front suspension but that has come off the 2016 Classics...

......... What's that? :eek: ....... And that?! o_O

Hubby and me have just bought helmets on eBay which I think are good value, here: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/321802565575?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT I have checked and they are indeed selling for the £59.99 rrp online so £10 including delivery is superb value. The...

I have just been through your dilemma and I feel for you! I am not in a position to honestly recommend a particular bike at the moment because I have only been up and down our lane on the bikes me and hubby have just bought. I have test ridden a Juicy Classic however, and I did end up buying...

Thanks Dave. Like Juicy's comments above, I especially value your opinion as one of our bikes is yours.

Hi Peter. Looks like your posting is off thread. You might want to cut and paste it into a new thread so it won't be missed.

The garage is brick built and is attached to the house so it doesn't get too cold, but I take your point about bringing the batteries in for Winter, maybe into one of the spare bedrooms. In a really cold snap it can get down below 10 degrees as we are at 750ft.

Yes for the Juicy Classic but not that I'm aware for the Vita Uno 26 (Kudos Cobra dressed up). There is no initial conditioning for the Juicy. Thanks for your explanations, I am a bit happier about how to look after the batteries now.

I've read about charging to 2/3 but how can I tell if the battery is at 2/3 charge? The garage can get down to about 10dgC but we would prefer to charge them insitu, which would be on the bikes, in the garage - is that too cold?

Hi guys and gals, now we have our bikes sorted thanks to your helpful posts, I'd like to ask about how you guys charge your batteries, during use in good weather and storage in bad weather. Before you all yell at me, I HAVE searched the forum first - "battery charging" gave me 449 posts!!!:eek...

Our bike quest is now complete, as 'Juicy Lucy' was delivered yesterday. It was wet so I didn't try her until this morning. She flew up our steep lane with no pedalling needed on the throttle, and very easily with pedal assist. She is also a very pretty bike with her swan neck post and her...

Good luck with the Santana. Not the best time of year to be getting a new bike but it's still pretty exciting.

Thanks Bob. Hope the nice man doesn't ring our doorbell at 0815am, like the guy who delivered the Vita this morning. Embarrassing answering the door in your jim jams! :eek:

I don't get it either - must be a man thing!

Received the Vita Uno today, it's a real good looking bike. Took just 15mins to set up. Hubby (and me) have only had chance to ride up and down our lane, which is steep, and it handled it well. Hubby feels comfortable on it and is so far very pleased. I have had an email to tell me that my Juicy...
