Thank you Feliz! The VW is 40 years old, and has just had a restoration done on it, including an original VW Heritage engine refit. Because of its age, in the UK, it counts as a VHI (Vehicle of Historical Importance) and is exempt from road tax and MOT testing. It’s MOTed anyway - more for...

Exciting times ahead! Nevo is a great bike, and the step-through is simply awesome! I tried one initially as part of my many demo rides.... ATB. George

I was looking at a VW California (Campervan based on a T7 Transporter), and to fit a bike rack that could take an eBike or two would need to be fitted to a tow bar. Certainly too much weight to be supported by rear doors or swing-up tailgate alone... ATB. George.

Thank you! That’s Admiralty Arch in London. See the link in my message for more photos of the bike around London (Marble Arch, Buckingham Palace, Trafalgar Square, Piccadilly Circus, Leicester Square, Berkeley Square, etc.)........ ATB. George.

Just received my bike - truly awesome! I’ve posted more photos at the R&M sub forum here on EBR (click link). ATB. George.

Pete - Nice pictures! Not sure if you meant to share your frame number with us all though......? I’ve gone for a Gold rated Abus WBA-75 ground anchor with a Hiplock Homie (stay at home) Gold-rated chain/padlock combo. At 4.5Kg, it really is one to keep and use at home though! Apart from a...

I believe it’s standard fit on current models....... ATB. George.

Many thanks Steve! Taken with a humble iPhone I’m afraid... maybe I’ll take my Nikon with me next time. ? ATB. George

I meant to mention that the Kiox is indeed a very special display and controller. I’d never seen one ‘in the flesh’ before I ordered, however it’s awesome to use, and the display is super clear and really much better for me than the Intuvia. Highly recommended! ATB. George.

“So beautiful! which saddle on your supercharger? brake levers are different from mine, i suppose they are magura and not shimano xt deore...” I believe the saddle is a Selle Royal Nuvola, and brakes are indeed Magura..... ATB. George.

So sorry to hear about your wife Pete - devastating. Your bike looks very nice - those Ortlieb carriers look the job, and the blue pedals set it off nicely. Only reason that I rode round London yesterday, is that once I’d picked up my bike, I had 3 hours to kill before catching my return...

So, after the anticipation of ‘the wait’, I collected my new eBike yesterday from Fully Charged (37 Bermondsey Street next to London Bridge Station) and thought I’d cycle round London and take some photos before taking my new bike home. Here are some of the photos; Hope...

Week 48 is going to be a busy production week at R&M factory! My Supercharger and several other forum member’s new bikes are also being manufactured that week! ATB. George.

Many thanks Hompie - very helpful information, and has heightened my anticipation further. Trying not to go crazy on buying accessories whilst waiting, however have bought a Sold Secure Abus WBA75 ground anchor to fit in the garage - a condition of the insurance that I plan to take out is that...

Wow!!!! What a fantastic wealth of feedback, knowledge and information from all of your responses. Many thanks to you all for sharing - I really appreciate it! I’ll read and digest all your suggestions as I wait for delivery of my bike, and may make some selected changes after I’ve got a...

As mentioned on the ‘Introductions & Bike Garage’ section of this forum, my R&M Supercharger GH Vario in electric blue with Kiox display is scheduled for week 48 production, and I hope to pick it up some time before Christmas this year. A few questions for existing Supercharger (or similar)...

Hi Pete, When I brought the bikes back to the shop after the demo rides, I did indeed ‘feel the weight’ as I tried to get them up the 5 steps to the showroom. Boy, oh boy were they heavy, and I did indeed struggle to get them up unassisted! The Rohloff is a few pounds lighter than the...

I’d recommend you try both, as like you, I’d read that the Rohloff was better (and in many ways it is), but I wasn’t prepared for my own personal experience which showed that for me and my style of riding, the enviolo hub better suits me. Surprising, but if I hadn’t tried it for myself, I...

Absolutely right Chris! I’ve researched the heck out of this, watched most of Court’s and Citrus Cycles’ videos, read countless reviews and drooled over brochures, tried multiple ebikes, dithered for weeks over whether to make purchase (huge investment, worry of security/theft, concern whether...

Many thanks for the kind welcome David! Yes, I also tried a R&M with E-14 Rohloff to compare against the Enviolo transmission - I’ve written a short summary on the R&M tab of this forum. For me, I found that whilst both hubs were fantastic (and I’d say that the E-14 is technically superior...
