My neighbour came home with one of these yesterday to try out as he has links with the supplier

We took it out to Richmond Park this afternoon to chase down some London Dynamos on the hills

By the way it does 15 mph restricted (the legal limit), 18 mph unrestricted even up hill (the one that I tried) and much to the shock of the London Dynamos in Richmond Park as pedaled past them whistling on a hill whistling and there is a super 37 mph version very unrestricted but the battery lasts no time. 8) 8)

As we have a link to the supplier I can probably arrange for them to turn up with a couple of bikes somewhere someday for us to have a go on them. Perhaps on a Saturday at the cafe in Charlwood?

They are keen to market it so involving a large cycling club within the London commuter belt would be a good move for them. Obviously they are no good for us hardened cyclists who would never dream of using it :P (apart from sitting at the bottom of the hill in Richmond Park pretending to check something waiting for the next serious cyclist to come past so you can blow them away :D ) but we would know people that might.

Personally I do not think that they will have a problem shifting these as they are relativily light, they also fold up into a bag and cheapish - the iPhone of electric bikes! (their quote).
