On reading my latest `Twist and Go `Scooter Magazine I came across an article about EBCO completing a deal to import Solex Ebikes . Solex have now relaunched three models of which the nicest is a Folder called Velosolex at £1299 . It looks attractive in black with an orange seat and comes with a castor instead of the usual U bracket for resting on when folded . You can tell it`s been styled by its swoopy shape , the tube where the carrrier sits is curved, so some stylist will have to provide a bag with a curved underside to fit .
I must admit I spend a fair bit of time on this site and have rarely seen EBCO mentioned . They seem to have more Dealers throughout the Country than anyone , by Country I mean England, as they don`t seem to have any in Wales . Nothing new there then !

If you read the posts on the thread I link to below, you'll see the background and the brothers behind the company. Judged from that they've changed course from their original bikes, but I'm not sure whether the Solex brand is a good move in Britain:

Thanks for the link flecc , the Solex Folder looks more classy than the Eagle in my eyes and at the price of £1299 should sell .
