The Cycle City Expo held in Birmingham last week was a huge event targeting decision makers from all over the UK. The ground breaking two-day conference had prestigious speakers covering many aspects of cycling from infrastructure to products.
One of the seminar sessions was chaired by BEBA – the British Electric Bicycle Association (of which Batribike is a member). This was totally devoted to electric bikes and the important role they can play in getting people cycling.
Batribike were there supporting their brand new dealer in Birmingham – Bikes and Trikes. Their stand on the outside test ride area allowed those interested in how electric bikes worked an ideal opportunity to “have a go”.
The Lord Mayor of Birmingham, Councillor John Lines was very impressed when he took a spin on the Diamond. He “thought they were great” and his grin definitely shows he was enjoying himself.
The West Midlands Police currently use ordinary bicycles in the course of their duties.
These two Police Officers could really see the benefits of using electric assistance. They said that they cover a large area and these bikes would make their job a lot easier.
In many situations it is much better not to arrive hot and sweaty after a ride.
Jim and John from Trikes and Bikes were delighted with the amount of interest the Batribike range was getting. It makes a real difference when people get the chance to get on and have a ride on an electric bike. The smiling faces of the test riders really said it all!

Jim says -
“Trikes and Bikes have launched their new electric bike business based in Sutton Coldfield in the West Midlands. The premises aren’t quite ready yet, but you can still contact us to arrange a demo or purchase.
We are covering the West Midlands area and will also be promoting the Batribike range through a number of events.”
