Hi Folks has anyone here had any dealings with Aniioki-uk a friend ordered the above bike over 6 weeks ago and was told it would be with him by 25th of november but all he has received is the free gifts mentioned on the site - the panniers he has been in touch with the company several times only to be be told his grey car will be with him soon ? grey car ? he has ordered the A8 pro 52volt in Black he is a bit concerned as the recent communications stated his bike has been delayed by brexit checks at uk docks.

Looking at your link, it still says delivery by November 25th, so I hope delivery all goes well eventually.

I hope your friend doesn't intend to use it on the road or in public spaces off road. It's going to be quite hard getting all the registration, insurance etc for legal on-road use, and it'll never be legal for off-road use expect on private land with no general public access.

Probably ok, the authorities often delay things they think might be illegally imported or not as described.

The website now says estimated delivery 8th to 12th December.

ah, I see it says November 25th at the top, and 8th to 12th December further down.

I think I would have enjoyed being a cattle farmer in Northumberland; but probably in reality I'd have enjoyed it just for the first few days! We had friends who farmed above Langdon Beck right at the top of Teesdale, and it was hard.

And he does Deliveroo in his spare time too. I think I know him. He delivered my Kebabs last week, and we had a bit of a chat about cattle farming while he has at my doorstep. It's a hard time being a farmer since the budget, so I'm not surprised that some of them are doing Deliveroo in the evenings. Are you a farmer doing deliveroo too or delivering something else?

Why no ticket? There must be very lax parking wardens up there.
Three of them turned up in the morning, but seemed a bit slow on the uptake.

Others may have been trapped below the morning mist in Teesdale.
