These were the ones for £500 in the Wiggle death sale with Rohloff and a Bafang motor, right?
Pretty nice bits, shame the overall package isn't up to it.

Those are the ones! Definitely not a Rohloff hub though. It comes with a horrible automatic 2 speed hub that shifts up nicely but doesn't shift down again until you're more or less stopped. Luckily mine has been converted to single speed which is loads better.
To be honest, with a few tweaks to make it more comfortable for me, it's not bad to ride.
I just know how unreliable it is which is the main worry.

I've bought a shit new bike, this one's electric. A Buzzbike EZ. I used to work for Buzzbike so am very aware of how crap these are but it was £150 and I'm sick of getting public transport when I have to take a 10kg bit of kit to band practice.
The good: belt drive, hydraulic brakes.
The bad: everything else.
Will be getting a new saddle, grips, Pink Flamingos sticker and tyres asap but I'm going to try not to spend any more money on it.
