One way to beat the fuel prices could be to cycles, but for those of you that do not like to work up a sweat on your way to work, an electric bikes could be the answer.
Electric bikes have come along way since we started selling them and and we have now sold about 450 of them. In the early days they were cheap imports form China, with heavy lead acid batteries. Now we have lighter batteries and some bikes are capable of covering 50 miles on one charge.
The build quality and reliability is far higher than it was, especially with our Raleigh and Wisper brands. Our mechanic have learn a great deal about servicing electric bikes as they are more complicated than a standard cycle and we do have a loan electric bikes sometimes available when yours is in for repair.
We have chosen the companies that we deal with very carefully, taking into account back-up, stocking and parts availability. Yes you maybe could still find cheaper Chinese imports on the internet, but wait until you have to find parts or an electrical fault.
Many Guernsey residents have found the benefits of owning an electric bike, so why not pop into Adventure Cycles in St Martins and test ride some of the bikes we have in stock. We think you will be pleasantly surprised and you just might use your car a little less.
