    The guys who import this kit told me it's a Cyclone...I looked for it at the cyclone website and at first glance it surely look the same....I guess he is not so trustworthy as he said he is.

    How Electric Bikes Could Take Off in the UK

    I don't understand how Facebook or Twitter can help us with showing updated specs of e-bikes and why would we want to do this? Facebook/Twitter are moer for promoting a product, doesn't it?

    Investing in cycle paths to reduce congestion

    In Tel Aviv, the bike lanes are a joke. If you will hear the city hall announcements about the city bike lanes, you would think that tel aviv is the bicycle heaven. Here is a short (and very funny movie) and the bike railes over here: Bike Road Challenge on Vimeo

    E-bikes will not exist in 10 years time

    It is indeed an old post(: Buy anyhow, I agree with monkoffunk. IMO, e-bike have their place in the very congested urban cities. Even more then e-moped and e-scooters. I think that E-bike enjoys from every battery technology improvement more then the other vehicles, cause it's energy...

    E+ Comparison chart

    I came across this E+ comparison charts in on of their ezines: Electric Bike Comparison Chart | E+ Electric Bikes | Pedal for Exercise, Motor for Fun. IMO, it is kind of misleading.

    Wow! Thanks all. There are far more companies then what i've even imagined in my wildst dreams:D One thing I learned from all of this for sure. The Chinese websites are almost always funny and very awkward, it's like they are still living in the 90s or 80s.
