The Zephyr E-Trek comes in two models, the men’s bike with a stand cross-bar and the lady’s with the step-through crossbar configuration. Why would you buy an E-Trek? Well, you wouldn’t if you want a bike which primarily does off-road, you’d probably opt for the Zephyr E-lite. If you want …
I have to admit I love this bike. When electric bikes first hit the market they were ugly, heavy, clunky. They were for middle-aged commuters really (like me!) who wanted to be green and cool. More recently, of course, we’ve seen some stunning electric bikes released that you really wouldn’t …
I speak to a lot of people about electric bikes because I visit businesses where they’re sold, and also talk to cyclists at exhibitions and shows. One thing that strikes me is that there isn’t a typical electric biker. There are enthusiasts and they tend to be a male between the age …
I’m not a fan of folding bikes, here’s why…I don’t need one! But I’ve got several friends who have one and they literally love their folding bike.
