I've just watched a Halfords video which shows the battery being removed for charging. I'd be very surprised if that weren't standard. If that's the case, Sue's question about the bike hangar sizes is still relevant.

Actually, from looking at some photos of ebikes, they just look mainly sort of bike-sized.


I saw what I assume was an ebike beetling up Woodward Road a couple of months ago, and was impressed.

There are fantastic electric bikes out there at the moment. I love the Rad Power selection - I think they sell online and deliver to you. If you don't cycle now, just start cycling on a regular cheap bike and if you enjoy it and are keen, then shell out for an electric - they tend to be quite expensive.


They are slightly heavier than a regular bike but not by much.

1. You get what you pay for. A decent traditional bike is a grand plus. Double that for electric


2. You need to get electric assist, ie something that gives you a nice shove, rather than a twist and go where you don't need to pedal. They are not road legal but retailers wont sell you that


3. I found them great fun, don't need one, yet..., but understand the attraction


4. Try a Boardman https://www.ft.com/content/50c34a1a-f6ff-4eb9-a635-4dc7bd4d176c

    • Thanks for your reply. I’ve subscribed to Ancestry a few times in the past but felt I wasn’t using it enough to warrant keeping up the subscription.    
    • Hi, I saw your post and just wanted to say that the incident you’re referring to did happen in the late 1980s at Dawson’s Heights. The person involved was named Carl Salawa, and he had just turned 18 years old at the time. Like you, I haven’t been able to find any news articles or official reports about it, If anyone remembers anything more about that time or incident, I’d really appreciate hearing about it. Thanks for sharing what you were told—it means a lot to know others remember.
    • Was anyone else disturbed last night/early hours this morning by the party going on in someone’s garden on Crystal Palace road. Can’t see what house exactly but it’s around number 43 - 41… it was happening quite frequently last year. Seems it’s starting again! Very inconsiderate.
