19/07/2011 - We are currently testing the Pedego ebikes. Conclusion: This ebike achieved the longest coast we have seen so there is little resistance in the motor and they haven't skimped on the quality of the rolling components. Although the power was smooth we found it to be lacking oomph with no starting boost and poor performance on hills. Unfortunately we wont be offering it in our range because it contains non UK or EU standard bicycle parts. It is a pity because it oozes cool and good looks for those sunny rides along the boardwalk.

14/07/2011 - We are currently testing the Ultramotor HYBRID24. Conclusion: Wow! the smoothest, fastest and most powerful pedelec we have tested. The torque sensing algorithms work better than any other pedelec we have tested. It took a few versions of the HYBRID but persistance wins.
 

12/05/2011 - We are currently testing: the Claud Butler Glide 2. Conclusion: Reasonable power but less hill climbing power than the original Glide 2, battery rattles a lot and creates a high centre of gravity. The power out occurs at 25Km/h and wont reinstate until the speed falls below 20Km/h which makes the ride uncomfortable if you are constantly bouncing off the upper limit.

22/04/2011 - We are currently testing an ebike available new on ebay for a touch under £500. Conclusion: works well but .. we've spotted poor quality components, noticed an uncomfortable ride and the model we have has developed a peculiar noise from the motor bearings...  Expensive to fix!

20/03/2011 - We are currently testing: the EBCO Eagle. Conclusion: A reliable ebike with reasonable to good performance.

09/03/2011 - Got a chance to test the Mobiky folding electric bike today. Conclusion: Managed to produce an electronic fault several times in a very short test period. Mobiky declined a longer test. Foregoing a longer test we have to conclude the folding bicycle is well made but the electrics are not reliable enough for our customers.

03/02/2011 - We are currently testing: the new Ultramotor Metro. Conclusion: Smoother than the original Metro. Still an absolute delight to ride; robust and reliable.

15/01/2011 ... Got an old broken eBike in the shed? Get it to us and get it repaired - the cheap and easy way! For the courier's fees we can collect and redeliver your bike using TNT. We'll diagnose the problem(s) without any further cost and will phone you to let you know what is required and the cost involved before going ahead with any work. Any bike sent to us is entirely at your own risk so please ensure it is properly packaged. The whole bike must be packed in a carton with the handlebars and pedals removed from the frame (easy - ask if unsure). If you need a full size bike box, we can send you one (folded up) for £15. Just ask. Please note that if you live within 40 miles of one of our stores then we would prefer for you to bring, and collect, the bike in person. This saves time, money and reduces the chances of damage in transit.
