    Looks like fun. Probably be a good idea to turn the front mudguard round as shown on the website.😊

    • @cruisingontheborder
      @cruisingontheborder  Před 10 měsíci +3

      Ah ah Jeff thanks for the comment and yes I've just answered another comment from John who said the same, a blonde moment from me I'm afraid, we've corrected it now. Jackie

  • @andychurches7280
    @andychurches7280 Před 10 měsíci +7

    Just a suggestion, turn the brake levers down a bit so they follow the line of your arms - they'll feel much comfier.

    • @cruisingontheborder
      @cruisingontheborder  Před 10 měsíci +2

      Hi Andy thanks for the suggestion. Both Michael and I like them in a different position, so we compromised when we were building the bike. Lovely to hear from you. J&M

    @intrusivenature9758 Před 10 měsíci +2

    If you plan to keep the bike upgrade the 7 speed gear freewheel to a 11/34 tooth cassette. It will make a world of difference to your leg speed and save on battery power. You'll pedal easier and go further.

    • @cruisingontheborder
      @cruisingontheborder  Před 10 měsíci

    Heaven, an E-Bike with off road tires. Hydraulic disk brakes. Fantastic for quick rides into town for shopping. Do you get to keep this? I know bikes here about $2500 dollars. How would you store on boat? I know bike can be a target for thieves. Need strong lock. Thanks for demo ride.👍❤️😀

    • @cruisingontheborder
      @cruisingontheborder  Před 10 měsíci +3

      Hi.
      Great to hear from you.
      The bike is currently on offer and we have included a discount code. The bike was sent to us for review purposes only. We may but use it on the boat. It’s a great piece of kit though. 👍👍❤️

    Boy there are a bunch of these new electric bikes coming out. I like the look of a fresh design too instead of a retro-fitted bicycle, which is what quite a few others seemingly are.

    • @cruisingontheborder
      @cruisingontheborder  Před 10 měsíci

      Yes thanks for your comment, yes we loved the look of the bike too, so different and a great e-bike so comfy and easy.

    E-bikes like that should be banned from sale, 1000W motor 50 KPH top speed it's a freaking motor bike not a bicycle. Restricting it to 250w/15.5MPH in software does not make it street (or tow path) legal since it's trivial to override the restriction.
