Thanks for posting this. Really good looking bike, I've seen those forks before but they still freak me out every time I see them :D.

You MUST post pics here ;) Just start with a couple from your smart phone...

Yes pics, we need them! ;)

Welcome to the forum. How annoying the first bike didn't work out! I'm interested how the different drive feels, can you elaborate?

Welcome. I think you will definitely feel some benefit from an e bike. As long as you don't top up at the end of every journey :p

I got some time to fit them today:

That location looks awesome! Can't wait to get out to some nice views and share them here also

Nice work space, beats a kitchen table! :D

Using a couple of different locks is advised, and check the rating on them. It's so good commuting, I hate having to use the car now ;). Enjoy your new bike

D'oh!

If how good a bike performs was based on how it looked, then that would be an awesome bike! Looking forward to your review and plenty more pictures

From the happy Mondays? Sorry you probably get that all the time ;). There's some very knowledgeable people here, I hope to become like them some day... Welcome and enjoy the forum

Just over 5 miles each way, more than enough for me at 6.30 in the morning :p

That looks such fun, great how the dog runs along ahead of you too

Apart from the usual maintenance (just adjusted the front derailleur because of some minor chain drag). The only thing I don't like is when the forks top out (when I pull up on the bars) it's a bit metallic sounding, you don't notice it on normal riding over the bumps. I thought about changing...

Thanks guys, I was looking at a few Web pages about the SDW and it kinda gets a bit daunting, when there is so much choice ;). I'll take a look at those routes you've both posted up, particularly that last one. And thanks for the encouragement :)

I thought I'd ask where people recommend riding, I'm right near the south downs as I type this near Hassocks, and wonder where is best to ride along it? I guess I'm talking tracks/paths as opposed to full off road. Any recommendations/experiences/travel and parking/pictures are welcome. Let's...
