Some low life has nicked my Volt electric bike ( is quite heavy). Which is the best one to replace it with. Would like largest wheels and more of a man's looking one! Should I get one with a Bosch or similar.

Bosch! shame their German, Where's the British innovation,
inventive skills gone...gone with the Stock Exchange I fear!:(

PS, what sort of security did you apply to your bike?
 
Bosch without question.....Buy on German ebay and save a packet.

Hope it was insured! Spend at least 10% on decent security:(

Wisper elactric bikes, throttle or pedal assist. 16 amp battery lasts forever
 
Hope it was insured and feel for you. Too many low life's out there can't have owt.
Where was it stolen from?
 
You've just reminded me I need to get photos done of our 2 Synergie ones and to get them in the classifieds section:)
 
Roo bikes, I got a mountain bike type of one, well happy.
Could have got and afforded a much more expensive one buy WHY

Haibike with the Bosch motor. Also same motor on Cube bikes but you will pay around £1500 to £2000. Cheap deals on some old 2015 models but not many left
 
What about the Gtech bike. The vacuum cleaners are awesome
 
Bosch power has got to be the best option. Need to test ride quite a few different models to find what suits you then decide on price versus quality how much you are prepared to spend. Then as Eddie says buy from Germany, British prices like Motorhomes stupidly high. We brought direct from a German dealer, delivered in 3 days and saved £500 a bike.

There is a very good electric bike shop in Cromer, north Norfolk if anyone is in need in the area, lots of different models on display, also accessories are offered free to anyone buying a new bike at the moment.

I think you'll find that throttle electric bikes now have to be registered. some countries have banned them ( Spain) ?
 
Its a very personal choice. After much looking on the web i decided to take a trip to 50 cycles and try thrm.
I bought thr sahel compact, i am only 5 foot one inch tall and it suits me to perfection, but my 6 foot husband can also ride it as the seat and handelbars are fully adjustable.
Further to that it fits in our mh garage, with the quick release front wheel removed.
Are just returning from spain where i used it everyday, taking all the shopping home, going off road, asit has big tyres, and generally tooting about. So have now clocked up about 180 miles in a couple of weeks!!
The first recharge was after some 70 miles on high power use ( i have the large battery) and on eco it looks like it will do miles.
It has been the correct choice for me, depends what you want.
I also got a discount, but i think they are offering £50 off cc or ccc members if i remember correctly.
Have fun choosing
Regards
Linda
