    Has anyone used Swinging Wheels stabilisers on e-bike?

    Thank you all for your comments and suggestions. Swinging Wheels are from the Netherlands and the only supplier in the UK that I have found is in Eastbourne. He was very helpful and showed me with photos all the measurements to take of the rear of the bike to discover if the SW would fit. This...

    Has anyone used Swinging Wheels stabilisers on e-bike?

    I might have laughed at one time but once medical balance issues hit, it's not so funny falling off a two wheeler . Going up a 1 in 4 hill is pretty slow even with an e-bike That's a great idea. I have been in correspondence with the UK dealer but not thought of asking if he had any northern...

    Hello from the North York Moors and question about seatpost

    Ooops. You did go a long way for the bike, but a marvellous part of the country. Yes, you are right on two counts, it was good value and there are many clones.

    Hello from the North York Moors and question about seatpost

    Hello there and thanks for the quick reply. It's sad to say but I don't really know. Looking around I think it's a Chinese frame that various companies are putting their "bits" on.

    Hello from the North York Moors and question about seatpost

    I've read lots of very useful info and appreciated this website over the years but ashamedly I have not joined until now. After ten lovely electric years I am in the process of selling my Giant Lafree Twist Comfort on Ebay and have bought a bike that can do (so they say) 60 miles on a charge...
