  1. We shadowed the City of London Cycle Cops for a day, hoping to speak to #gigeconomy workers about the incentives they have to move at speed and the correlation to dwindling pay rates.

    In this long read we explore the link between this kind of work, road danger, #immigration and much more

  3. Tax changes in China that will drive the next stage of EV adoption will more than likely mean electric bike battery prices are going to rise - first by 2, then 4%.

    China's bet on sodium and solid state is only increasing and if they crack the energy density puzzle, as you expect they will, they'll again be light years ahead on one of the world's most important technologies.

  4. It seems likely that the auction houses of the UK may have a fresh wave of electric bikes for sale following last week's collapse of a giant - The Accell Group, parent to Raleigh.

    Here's our advice for buying e-bikes at auction:

  5. Now under the fresh stewardship of Paul Reeves, Swytch Bike has set out its revival plan, with an onshoring of production to Norwich and a hard adjustment to how it supplies customer products. So far, the plan is working, the new CEO suggests:

  6. It's a second time around with an ADO electric folding bike and the generational improvements are becoming clear.

    Currently selling for £1,999, there's a lot of bike here. First of all, a light carbon frame forms the foundation, while a two-speed Bafang hub motor provides the acceleration and 50Nm of torque support. That's pretty effective on hills of up to 10%.

  7. It's been a fun day. We played hide & seek with a team of private security experts this morning, and they found a tiny saddlebag from two miles away, hidden in an underground tunnel in under an hour.

    Here's how they're making e-bike theft a thing of the past:

  8. The battery is often the most expensive part of an electric bike so DIY construction here has been surprisingly prominent, even before the era of cheap and cheerful food courier demand for cut-price mobility solutions.

    But with much of the world's production now machine-automated, I sought an expert to reveal why doing this at home is often a bad idea.

  9. Today marks the start of a new series from @cyclingelectric.bsky.social that seeks to go deeper on the cultural issues the e-bikes face

    This starts with: The ‘E-bike’ influencer content that could get you arrested & the laws you'll be breaking if you follow

  10. A very enjoyable Bosch motor debut from Tenways. One of those bikes that was very easy to reach for and replace car trips. Mark was a big fan of the elegant frame design flowing into the pannier rack too.

    A great further step into the mid-tier e-bike world for the Dutch brand with a bike that retails for £2,999, but is currently available for £2,799.

  11. A new bump in the road for the long-standing EBCO e-bike brand as parent company TVS Ebike Company AG opts to limit its UK operations.

    Earlier this year, new models were launched at the Core Bike Show, but those never made it to sale, and now sources tell me that EBCO is sold out in the UK and no more stock is due to land. Unfortunately, redundancies have already been made.

  12. A well-equipped e-bike here from Specialized in the Turbo Vado 3 EVO 5

    Super bright front light, inductive charging add-on for a phone, huge 840Wh battery, reinforced carrier, Apple FindMy and Watch compatibility to manage security and more.

  13. Tern Bicycles HSD P5i Gen 3 review: Stronger and with more purpose

    Geoff Waugh has spent the past week using this short-tail cargo for his work and errands and finds a perfect fit for blending seamlessly with his lifestyle.

  14. Outrageous from West Midlands police. A road-legal, council-funded @ternbicycles HSD allegedly crushed, wrongly identified as a motorcycle. A local bike business out of pocket as a result; a rider without transport.

    Can this become a catalyst for police education, who routinely mislabel e-motorbikes & electric bikes?

  15. It's unique cargo bike week on Cycling Electric, so here's a deeper look at the incredible Tarran T1 Pro

    A few features:

    * Electronic landing gear with a parking lock that will activate the bike's security systems
    *NFC key unlock & phone unlock
    * active recording during unusual activity, just in case you need insurance footage
    * The sound system!

  16. Wow, this cargo bike is cool.

    The Carlos mobility Model V folds in half and weighs in line with most premium longtails.

    A genuine cargo bike solution for those who live in apartments?

    We took a ride at our Demo Day on Sunday and came away very impressed.

  17. £3,199 for this bike - this is more than disruptive, the value on offer is astonishing.

    Pound for pound, it's stronger than almost anything comparable if you want to cover ground carrying a half-decent amount of gear.

    This is only a first ride on the Amflow TL, but we are blown away by how much bike is here. Find out why:

  18. Giant has consistently impressed us during tests and Mike says that the NewTour platform is no different.

    At £2,399, it's 55Nm motor / 500Wh battery make it ideal for anyone looking for all-day leisure riding in comfort:

  19. We don't quite know how we are going to fit 17 e-bike brands into the Herne Hill Velodrome this weekend. If you'd like to come and test ride to spread them out a bit, that'd be very helpful...

    Final tickets for Sunday now on sale with a decent 2-4-1 offer:

  20. Another British electric bike label, but with a Danish twist. It's the value-oriented Batribike and its Route S step through, available in two battery specs and frame sizes.

    We've a deep group test on #electricbikes just like this one in our incoming magazine, so keep your eyes peeled if you're shopping for a leisure and commute-ready ride.
