I think this announcement today is related to transforming our transport system.
Electric scooters to get green light to go on Britain's public roads
In an ideal world it would be nice to think that increased adoption of ebikes in urban environments and subsequent increase in scale might help...
Particularly for the SL as all the carbon models are the same. Which is different for the Levo. I seem to recall the S-Works Levo frameset being £5500 or thereabouts but failed to find a link to that.
Good point I’d not considered it from the “type approval” angle. I’ve tried to find a link to the S-Works frameset that was being offered when the 2020 Levos were announced as that would be compliant. I failed to find one however.
Given we’re all going to go crazy keeping away from our fellow humans perhaps this might make a nice discussion topic?
Quality analogue MTBs more often than not have a frameset or frameset/shock option available. We don’t see this at all yet (apart from maybe the very limited EU availability of...
It’s really great to see a city really thinking this through. Imagine living in the city and getting about easily on a bike/e-bike with no cars. It would be good to see assessments of quality of life and the data about the health of the citizens when this is fully established. It should help...
You may have a point in some of your posts, and you‘ve been helpful to the OP, but to stand by lazy stereotyping on an international forum isn’t big or clever. Grow up.
I’m interested in the way the bike industry evolves as time goes on. You could argue that it’s a cynical attempt to sell us more stuff but things do change by companies trying something.
I’m assuming the reason this ‘new’ category exists at all is partly the availability of the light forks like...
I’m not talking about the specific suspension arrangement but more the nature of a low travel trail bike. You can find other examples that might suit a motor.
However, point taken on the actual example of looking at that as a specific.
Back to the topic. It will be interesting to see if we’ll see an electric version of something like the Evil Following (announces yesterday but there are others). One could argue that the Levo SL is sufficiently close to this without the travel limitations however.
First Look: Evil's New...
It really isn’t toxic, this is the northern English sense of humour. I can see the Singletrack offices from where I’m sat in my living room and I know this lot ride ebikes too.
Whether it’s well written or funny enough is another matter of course.
Our own government said in the week it was likely between 5000 and 10000. It’s a little low but they will look at the numbers like this article does.
It’s important we all keep calm, wash hands and limit contact. Stay safe.
