The bike was delivered today. Everything works including gears etc set up perfectly out of the box and looks like it was built to be a workhorse. Just took it up and down the road for a few minutes and it has some punch but yet to test inclines . I can see it being a lot easier to haul the...

It will be. I have previously ridden a Btwin tilt. 120 folder which and shifts well. I take it from the Thames barrier to Kew Gardens and back along the river as much as possible. It clearly needs more effort than the other bikes but these mini bikes are fun to ride in its own way the Tilt...

Thanks for all the replies. For the two ebikes we have , a Raleigh Array and Carrera Vengeance E Womens the only changes I made was swapping the tyres for marathon plus. After reading about the potential fragility of the hesc torque system we also stopped riding them on muddy very rugged mtb...

Thanks, will read the threads in more detail. I am unlikely to spend money on it for a while. I may add a basket to the front and back and just use it for local shopping and going to the pub. If I bash the deraullieur beyond repair leaving the pub for example then could gearing can upgraded...

sorry where I could do without the extra strain of this type of bike on the knees. These folders also seem less threatening when you see someone "riding" them on a pavement where the road is perhaps very busy an the rider may consider it unsafe. They often just push them along slowly with their...

Hi, thanks for all you replies. I ordered (paid £390 with a discount card) and is being delivered Thursday. Re the weight the frame being steel has probably contributes but I was looking for a steel frame especially in a folder for some strength. I still want to use it to keep fit (to a degree)...

Hi, I bought a Raleigh Array through my work cycle to work plan about the same time and it needed an adjustment to the brakes. The company I bought it through suggesting taking it into Halfords and they would probably do it for free (even though Halfords weren't part of the cycle to work...

Hi, if it helps I paid more attention when plugging in the battery to charge this morning and if you look closely there is an arrow on the charger plug to aid aligning

Hi, I occasionally commute using the Raleigh (approx. 30 miles round trip)sometimes using an alternative route negotiating River Paths (Thames/ Darent) with some rough stretches out in the marshes (narrow stony overgrown paths through brambles. We also ride to a local country park with bike...

Hi, have only used my wife's Carrera once on the public road and both would be fine in my opinion for commuting. Although the Array can cope the Carrera has the edge for rougher paths.

Hi, we have the 2020 Raleigh Array and the latest Carrera Vengeance E Womens which uses the same Suntour HESC system (batteries are also interchangeable) and initially thought the pins would get bent as could not tell whether male/ female lined up perfectly before screwing the connection closed...
