"Love the standing start"
by Paul Tudge from Leeds on 11 Feb 2013
Had the bike almost a week. Terrible weather but great bike. The immediate push as soon as you put pressure on the pedal is great just the moment it is needed. Thanks for getting me back on a bike push bike to motorbike now back to an electric bike

"C11 Impulse"
by Andy from Dartmoor area on 17 Jan 2013
Its rare to find a product that lives up to its blurb but i am tottally impressed with the C11 its easy to peddle without power on flats and gradual inclines in fact its feels so secure and sticks to the road
with the power assist i have gone up the steepest hill around here no probs and yesterday overtook a lycra man on the uphill the 11 gears makes so much ease of use and now have gotten useed to the system after just 2 days covered 40 miles and more than hale the power left amazing
highly recommended this cycle to anyone who wants comfort and long distance riding without getting exausted at the end of the day i intend to go long distance topuring later in the year and so look forward to the experience and thanks to the 50cycle team for their great and friendly correspondance

"Brilliant"
by Don from near Milton Keynes on 20 May 2012
I live on a very long hill and very steep as I get near to home. In the past in order to enjoy my bike rides I had to take my bike by car to a better location. Now I can just set off from home. The long battery life means I can go much long distances than previously firstly because I can use the motor to assist where necessary and secondly because I know that at the end of the journey I will be able to reach home without having to push the bike up my hill. I have done 96 miles so far and charged the battery once. Brilliant just waiting for the good weather to return.

"Bike has performed outstandingly"
by Liz from Edinburgh on 20 Apr 2012
As you were so helpful when I came with my husband from Edinburgh to purchase my Pro-Connect in September, I thought I'd offer you some feedback on the bike. It is as good as you said and better! I think everything you said about it has proven accurate. I am cycling two journeys of mixed gradients per day, 10 but occasionally 20 miles each way, in the dark, along a mixture of roads - some unlit, some dual-carriageway.
The bike has performed outstandingly and the fitted lights have been adequate for me to feel safe both in the unlit country roads (able to see unevennesses in the road surfaces as well as be seen by speeding cars from a decent distance) and on the busy roads in the morning rush hour. My Casco helmet is comfortable and warm, and the panniers you sold me have proven their waterproofness.

"I cannot praise the bike highly enough"
by Chris from Nottingham on 20 Apr 2012
Fantastic life-saving bike. Through joint discomfort, living amongst a series of high hills and lethargy I thought my cycling days were over. Then I bought the Pro Connect, starting cycling the 11.5 miles to and from work most days and haven't looked back. I've been able to reduce my reliance on the power by gradually increasing my fitness - if you're worried this bike will make you lazy, fret not. We've sold one car and are now a two-bike-one-car family as a result. I cannot praise the bike highly enough.
The 18 mile Nottingham Bike Ride was a complete breeze - I carried everyone's panniers! A truly excellent investment. Having stopped driving for medical reasons I required a means of transport for my 20 miles each way commute. Living in the Scottish Highlands public transport was not an option. The Pro Connect has been superb. It has coped with everything I have thrown at it including 6 inches of snow! I actually got through when cars were stuck! We have now covered about 3000 miles together and are firm companions. The electric motor comes into its own on some of the steep hills. The steepest we have climbed is 1 in 4. Not bad in third gear!

"Total freedom and the confidence to tackle any route long or short"
by Ken from Haywards Heath on 20 Apr 2012
My wife and I both have the Pro Connect step-thru models and we are delighted with them. It has totally changed our approach to cycling and we have now racked up nearly two thousand miles since we got them. Total freedom and the confidence to tackle any route long or short. They had a baptism of fire as the day after we got them we set off on a tour of Iceland transporting them on the back of our Eriba Caravan. A simply breathtaking adventure.
"Not many match the quality of workmanship, range and speed of this impressive bike "
by Ben Ford from Bristol on 20 Apr 2012
After using a Synergie Extreme bike over 3 years ago, riding the Pro Connect is a completely different "kettle of fish". Here, we have a bike that looks and feels like it's been well made, with attention to detail. It's pretty light for such a rugged bike.
I only ride about 7 miles a day, on medium power and this more or less gets me through the working week on one charge. On the one big hill I face, I simply switch the bike onto high power and it propels me up the incline without me having to get out of the seat. It's a winner all the way. Yes, it's a bit more than some other brands, but not many match the quality of workmanship, range and speed of this impressive bike.
"Buying this bike has kept me cycling"
by Bob from Tenterden on 20 Apr 2012
Buying this bike has kept me cycling. Since buying it in July 2008 I've notched up 3,200 miles. A few to go to the shops, most on day rides of 30 to 40 miles and a two week tour in Germany. I've charged the battery about 80 times. So far everything is going very well and I'm very pleased.
"Exceptional saving on fuel costs"
by Joe from Henley on 20 Apr 2012
I have had my Pro Connect for about a month and am very pleased with its performance. Living on the edge of the Chiltern Hills, there are many testing gradients and the machine handles them all. The biggest impression it has made on me is the truly exceptional saving on fuel costs; the car stays at home other than for the longest runs.
"Can't believe how much easier hills are"
by Christine from Chester Le Street on 20 Apr 2012
Just wanted to say how much I love my pro-connect bike! Received it last Friday - thanks for getting it to me so quickly by the way. It's a marvel. Cycling to and from work no bother. Can't believe how much easier hills are and it's no bother pedaling against the wind. I love it.
"Great bike"
by Geoff from Leeds on 20 Apr 2012
I live in Leeds and always wanted to cycle to work but was put off by the 24 mile distance and hills that make it a very difficult daily commute... that was until I took delivery of my Pro Connect in August 2008. For the past 2 months I have been commuting daily to work and have now covered more than 750 miles.
Not only is it good for me but I also really enjoy the time I have cycling to and from work. I am also very pleased with the endurance of the bike. As my fitness has improved so has the endurance of the bike as I am now able to select the lowest power setting for most of my journey. I have managed 48 miles from a single charge and the battery was not fully discharged. Great bike.
"The smoothness of the power assistance from a virtually silent motor is exceptional"
by Mark from Leek on 20 Apr 2012
Well, 320 miles under my belt in all weather conditions (except snow) and the bike is everything I expected it would be and more. It has battled through strong winds and torrential rain that has managed to put off many of my colleagues that cycle to work. The smoothness of the power assistance from a virtually silent motor is exceptional.
I used the power assistance on high a lot of the time and climbed some exceptionally steep hills on my first ride, coming back down I hit 39mph and the bike was extremely stable, the handlebars are just the right width for feel and control with a very natural hand position. I am also averaging over 15mph, something unheard of on my mountain bike. I can see 50 miles could be possible on the flat but not on the hills that I have to negotiate so to be safe I am charging the battery after each trip.
"The sheer build quality is fantastic"
by Robert from Leyland on 20 Apr 2012
I have owned my Pro-Connect for a week now and am very impressed with it. The sheer build quality is fantastic. The paint finish is very good and the quality of the Shimano brakes, wheels and gears are top notch. The 8 speed rear hub gear has a very easy action and combined with the quickshift gear levers is impressive. The electric motor is very quiet and the power delivery is smooth and progressive. No matter what the conditions, you can decide how much effort you want to put in.
However, this is not an effort free ride and you still need to put some work into pedalling, but it is more of an easy turning of the pedals instead of a hard slog. This type of exercise is ideal to get fit and is also great for people with high blood pressure, etc as it exercises your heart and lungs without putting too much strain on your body. I've been doing 26 miles a day on the bike and the battery life is amazing as I have only been charging it every 2 days. I find that the fitter I have got, the less assistance I use so this may increase the range even more. Brilliant!!
""The Mercedes Of Bikes""
by Geoff from Chester on 20 Apr 2012
Had been looking at other power cycles and even tried one however just knew I had to wait for the pro-connect. Took first ride to Chester a good 26 mile run it felt unbelievable (the kind of thing you dream of as a kid). I went from a couch potato to a Tour de France pro instantly, absolutely brilliant!!! Cycled 26 miles in 1 hour 15 mins and that was with hills and head winds. I felt rather good on my return and "slept well that night". The overall quality and finish on the bike appears second to none and I'm truly convinced this is the best electric bike, "The Mercedes Of Bikes".
"Wow"
by Susie from Berkshire on 20 Apr 2012
Hi, just want to let you know how absolutely fabulous my new bike is. I have just cycled 18 miles, average speed 9.5mph, max speed 25.1mph. I am nearly 58 years old and I didn't even have to stop on killer hill!!! WOW. Thank you for all the good advice prior to purchase.
