Straight answers on range, the law, batteries and getting a new bike road-ready. Written by the person who answers the phone, not by a marketing team, and updated whenever we learn something worth passing on.
Why this Journal exists
We would rather you knew before you bought.
Most electric bike shops publish nothing, or publish specification sheets dressed up as advice. These guides are the answers we give on the phone, written down: what a range figure actually means, which class you are legally allowed to ride, how to keep a battery alive, and what to check before the first ride.
- Range, honestlyWatt-hours, what drains them, and a realistic figure for all eight models.
- The lawClass 1, 2 and 3, where each is allowed, and which of our bikes exceed the ceiling.
- BuyingWhere it will live, what it must carry, and how you want to feel riding it.
- BatteriesCharging habits, winter storage, and the three mistakes that kill packs early.
- Getting startedAssembly order, the ABC check, and the 30-mile retighten people skip.
- A real humanAnything not covered here, answered by email or phone, before or after you buy.
