I used to live in Glenlivet just inside the Cairngorm National Park and my parents still stay nearby. Since I took up Ebiking I've been promising myself a short break away and last week I made it. I took the Wisper and Cytronex, rode the Cytronex in mornings and the Wisper in the afternoons averaging 50 miles a day.

Here's a few pics

Great looking cycling area.
Prefer your cytronex to the Synapse model. Not as sleek but much more versatile I'd imagine.
Do the carbon forks give a reasonable ride on those type of tracks?

The Cytronex only gets used on tarmac. The Wisper with it suspension and fatter tyres gives a much better ride off road while the Cytronex is a sharper tool on metalled roads. Both great bikes but very different. I'm working up to a comparison test post soon

Looks superb Stumpi, we should get a group together next year for a weekend ride in Scotland, brilliant photo of the Cytronex in front of the barrels, very arty! The ancient bridge look fascinating too.

All the best

Great stuff and smashing pictures! The road through pine forest remind me of Lapland, Northern Sweden........
