My New Ribble e bike finally arrived….

[@E-ZeeRiders]

Thanks for sharing. I'm loving my Ribble CGR ALe. Great bikes.

[@davesolobiker5601]

Glad you enjoyed it 👍

[@andyedwards6190]

Dave I’ve had my bike (RED CGR AL E) for 4 months now and it really is the best thing I’ve done - got me back out cycling and back up to 80k rides. Enjoy!

[@davesolobiker5601]

Great to hear, so far I am really pleased with mine . What setting do you run yours on the most ?

[@ImranAhmed-uc4rj]

Stunning bike, I have the same bike and its got me out loving cycling again.. thanks for sharing the video!

[@davesolobiker5601]

Glad you enjoyed it, e-bikes have that rekindling effect 🚲👍

[@Rockinbiker1946]

You are lucky you live in GB. I tried to find a Ribble in the US as well as an Orbea. Impossible to find as well as impossible to order with any knowledge of delivery. I did find a distributor of the LOOK E-765 that had 2 in stock in my size so I got it delivered in 3 days.

[@davesolobiker5601]

Yeah we can get them but still had a six month wait lol , glad you found yourself a suitable bike and got it straight away . Atb Dave

great stuff can't beat new bike day epic.best luck with it .

[@davesolobiker5601]

Sure is mate , hoping to do a longer trip later this week testing the range out 👍

[@isabella1235]

You’re lucky you got it in 6 months. I’ve been waiting a year for my Ribble AL step through.

[@davesolobiker5601]

To be honest when it arrived I was surprised , having looked at the negative trustpilot reviews of people waiting for delivery . It’s pretty poor for selling bikes giving dates but then extending dates arc

@@davesolobiker5601 Just had my hybrid AL arrive after 7 months.

[@davesolobiker5601]

@@gamblemadman great stuff ,hope you give it a good run out this weekend atb Dave 🚲👍

[@k.r.lionheart6460]

No lugs on front forks for bags

[@tonypaddler]

Lovely looking bike Dave 👍 I know that there are countless variables but what mileage on a full charge do you think is possible to get when riding a mix of road and railway lines? If you need to pedal without assistance, is there much drag, aside from the extra weight? Cheers.

[@davesolobiker5601]

On a good day 45-50 miles , you don’t feel the drag but when you get over 15mph you feel the power drop off . atb Dave

[@Free__Speech]

Reports on other videos of the paint coming off the frame where u remove the wheel as the paint chips

[@davesolobiker5601]

Yep I can confirm this, when I put a bottle holder on some of the paint flaked away 😂

[@johnnybgood7812]

This isn’t just a ribble issue to be fair to them. Not going to rust anyway.

[@wayneemery5709]

Hi just saw your video is the bike tubeless ready? Nice video by the way

[@davesolobiker5601]

I think it was but I asked for tubes, I just put sealant in them 👍

[@thegeordiefellwalker8878]

hey hey it's arrived dave 👍just the job for them head winds on your bike packing trips 🚲did you not fancy hydraulic brakes?

[@davesolobiker5601]

I did but October at the earliest mate , I have the cable ones on my caadx and they’ve done the job fine 👍

[@craig524]

which pedals are you using?

[@davesolobiker5601]

Shimano PD-A530 Sport Dual-Sided Pedal , so I can use either clipped or normal shoes atb Dave

[@bikeman123]

Battery looks imposible to replace.

[@davesolobiker5601]

From what I saw when I removed the casing on the bottom bracket it looks fairly straightforward .

[@bennetthasty7886]

Really cool I like it

[@davesolobiker5601]

Thanks so far so good 🚴🏻‍♂️👍

[@ruslan17101992]

Good morning, how feel now ebike ?))

[@davesolobiker5601]

Great thanks 🚲👍

[@vahpr]

Nice review Dave. How did you find the sizing?

[@davesolobiker5601]

Thanks , I’m around 5”10/11 and I went for the medium and it fine for me . atb Dave

[@craigphillips4455]

Nice bike that mate worth the wait What tyres would you recommend for on and of road Thanks

[@davesolobiker5601]

Thanks Craig , I run panaracer gravel kings sk’s on my caadx and also the Schwalbe g-ones on this bike will do the trick atb Dave

[@Evasapprentice]

What does it weigh?

[@davesolobiker5601]

It’s around 13.5 kgs

[@peterleicester4701]
