    Grants to buy ebikes

    and you know this is also aimed more at the "commuter" style of bikes, i doubt they'll let you get 30% off an sworks levo sl.

    9 grand and you still don't get fox factory suspension. Ouch... At least there is a market for all sorts.

    I'm amazed at just how many miles people are managing to rack up. I've been out on my bike as much as i can since it is new and have cleared the 100km but there's people who have done over 4x that amount :D I wish it wasn't dark after work.

    whyte e180 rs

    So almost 100 miles in on the motor now. Few thoughts. Dropper post collar doesn't seem to like sitting about an inch above the frame. Scared to tighten it too much but i need it just that tiny bit higher for comfortable powering along when i get over the assistance. Turbo mode is just silly...

    whyte e180 rs

    After a fairly muddy ride today I finally gave in and fitted the rear mudhugger. But I need to sort out the space under it.

    surely the majority of e-bike KOM's are going to be the same unless riding unrestricted?

    Hardwick Hall barely visible in the background but I wasn't going to let the weather stop me today. Bike probably had about 1kg extra in mud by the end. ?

    Peak district recommendations reqiured.

    Hi all, so after getting a bit more familiar with my whyte e180 rs i would like to really start getting some elevation into my rides. I have access to komoot and would prefer to start a route from a proper car park but i'm not really sure what i should be attempting. I'm midlands based so...

    I find pines a bit lacking in elevation but it's local so its still fun with the right people. We sometimes do night rides which changes the place dramatically.

    Little jaunt out to pines to get a feel for it in the air. Feels so planted

    Which E-bike?

    Might be a daft question but what sort of places are you planning on riding it? Whilst there are loads of bikes to choose from in this sort of price range it might be easier to narrow it down a bit by where you aim to ride it and what you perhaps want to be able to achieve in the near to mid...

    Almost there Avoiding the rear mudhugger install until the ground warrants it.

    whyte e180 rs

    I just figured for the cost of the bike (and more matte finish) it wouldn't hurt to have a layer of minor damage protection. I'm glad i didn't plan to charge the battery out of the bike often, it's a bit of a faff but worth the trade off in agility.

    Has anyone managed to get a test ride on any 2021 Whyte e-bikes (160 or 180)

    That's a better way of phrasing it than i could come up with. :D on the go it feels like line choice isn't a thing, the ground has to give way to the bike.

    daylight, just got to wait for invisiframe fitment before i can let loose.

    whyte e180 rs

    So after waiting almost 2 months for an e160 rs and constantly having the date pushed back i managed to catch a cancellation from the LBS of a 180 rs. 1 week later and here it is :) proper photos will come but i just had to get it set up and ready to ride. First impressions are that it feels...

    E180 RS First Ride

    Mine has finally turned up today but I'm at work. Going to get the base settings on then it'll be heading off for invisiframe fitment. Can't wait to get out on it next week ? that 100km will be done in days.
