best kids mountain bikes reviews image
John
I am looking at buying a new mountain bike and converting it to electric...I was thinking about getting the Mongoose Status 3.0 but I couldn't find a single review except on Amazon...any suggestions?
I'm 13, about 120 (I know I'm a lightweight) and 5' 6"...
The reason that I want to convert a mountain bike to electric is because I do a lot of rough street riding, and a hybrid just won't do the trick. Also, I didn't mean full electric, just a lightweight hub motor for use on longer rides. So eff off about the Lego crap...it's a serious question.
Also, I don't really need advice about the electric components, I know my stuff about that.
Answer
Converting it to electric. No. Don't do this. Spend you money getting a nicer bike with less friction and you can go much faster. Or just buy a cheap, old scooter. Why are you doing this? Project?
If you're going to be using it as a mountain bike, it need not be electric, as that's dangerous. If you're using it as a scooter, it need not be a mountain bike: hybrid's. If this is a project and you're 13 and not rich, I'd pick a different project. One of the Lego Robots would make a good project with electricity(i.e. Lego's Mindstorm). Provide more info and I will too.

I am concerned about our booking to the Sunny Rose apartments in Crete (Hersonissos)
Susi0095
We have booked to go as a family plus my Dad - two children son is 13 and daughter is 8. I have been trying to find reviews or pictures but can only find one on the watchdog site (which sounded excellent) but went on to find feedback about the Frida Apartments which are next door (attached apparently?) and that did not sound good at all and it would seem it has more twenty somethings visiting rather than families. Now worried it is going to be too noisy for the kids at night and too boysterous during th day. Can anyone help settle my concerns has anyone been with their children?
Answer
We have just returned from a 2 week holiday to the Sunny Rose Apartments. We are a couple in our late 20's. I must say, we were also concerned as we couldn't find any reviews of the apartments, only reviews about the Frida, all of which were based upon teenagers and large groups of twenty somethings. This made us worry as it didnt sound good and we were expecting 2 weeks of hell!
Luckily, we were pleasantly surprised! Yes, the Frida apartments are close by but if you stick to the Sunny Rose, you will be fine. The Frida has its own pool so this is where you are more likely to find the youngsters, but the pool at the Sunny Rose is much more relaxed and whilst we were there, you would find couples and families. It was never overcrowded and we always managed to get a sun beds. Also, there are fantastic views of the sea and the mountains. We didnt even bother going to the Frida pool. Although it was slightly bigger, it was a lot noisier!
We never had any problems with noise at night. Our apartments were situated by the road and quite close to the Frida bar. You will find it can get a little noisy with scooters and quad bikes, but as long as the balcony doors were shut, it was fine.
The rooms are really clean and the maid service is excellent. We couldn't find any pictures either but dont worry, it is a lovely place.
The apartments are in a village called Piskopiano, not directly in Hersonnisos. Although Hersonnisos is only a 10/15 walk, i would avoid going there at night as it is very lively and where all the youngsters go. As you have children, it would be fine to go early but when we went, by 11/12pm it gets quite crazy!
At night, i would recommend you go to the other villages close by, Old Hersonnisos and Koutalafari. These are a 5/10 min walk and have such lovely restaurants with fantastic sea views. These villages are very relaxing, with many couples and families. We ate at a different restaurant every night and never had a bad meal. The food is great!! They are really traditional Greek villages with a relaxing atmosphere.
I hope this has helped you and i am sure your holiday will be brilliant.
