Below is what our clients have to say about their purchase of a Moustache Electric Bikes
Dear Len:
Thank you very much for your thorough lesson on our new Moustache electric bikes this afternoon. We now have a very good understanding of the components and functions of our bikes and also best practice to maintain our bikes. The information and practice with the Thule car bike rack and placement of the bikes was also extremely helpful. We appreciated your personal service.
Many thanks, Nick and Heather(22/09/2023)
Len from anebike is quite a character, who is cheeky and has a lovely sense of fun. Incredibly thorough and explains everything in great detail.
Len spent hours with me ensuring that the bike he recommended was the right one. I am really enjoying my new bike.
Highly recommend Len for your Moustache ebike.
You don’t get this level of service in a shop!
Kind regards, Amanda (07/12/2022)
Hello Len, Thank you so much for the time you spent with us yesterday. You gave us such a good informative session. We were both very impressed
ith how thorough you were. And also very understanding of a novice! I’m looking forward to hitting the trails!
Thanks again, Rona (11/06/2022)
Hello Len, I hope all is going well with you as it is with us. We love our bikes, thank you, the information and tips you gave us when we purchased our bikes has served us well, I still think of biking at 70 BPM, it was a very good tip and helps me when I need to change gears etc. You told us many good points which have certainly helped us along the way. Thanks Brenda (27/01/2022)
Hi Len. We are very happy with the two Moustache x-road e-bikes we recently purchased from you. We were grateful for your advice on what bike to buy and super impressed with the time and effort you took to show us through the features and care of the bikes purchased. Many thanks, John and Allison
(12/01/2022)
Hi Len
Dave and I are absolutely thrilled with our bikes, and have been on them most days. Thank you for all the instructions, it was a very good grounding for us two newbies! Delighted, thank you. Best wishes for 2022
Liz and Dave (30/12/2021)
Len,
I picked up my brand new X Road 3 Open from Len today and am overjoyed with the product, it is everything it is purported to be, and a stunning looker. From the get-go, Len locked into my needs, and then methodically guided me through the sizings and features. A test ride which included one of the steepest local hills left me gobsmacked at this bike's capabilities. Len assembled tmy bike the same day, and talked me through all it's functions leaving no stone unturned. I rode the local seafront this evening and tried the bike over some very undulating grassed-over dunes. I would have no qualms about taking this biker on the Timber trail, much of which is grade 3. Len, your service and knowledge base is exemplary. I would recommend your service to anyone. Many thanks.

Hello Len
Thank you for your time today it was most informative and we learnt a lot, and I think maybe you learnt a little bit about us as well, anyway it was a most enjoyable encounter and we are very happy with the decision we have made to purchase of two Moustache-ebikes.
Thanks again Len we did appreciated your help.
Kind regards Brenda and Peter (22/11/2021)
Hi Len,
Just received my X road 5FS, thanks for assisting in the delivery. Very impressed with the bike, just as you described it, always a concern when buying something unseen.Your passion for the brand has made this transaction a very enjoyable experience, and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you to any potential purchaser. Thanks again,
Kind Regards
Neville. (04/11/2021)
Hi Len
I have been the owner of my new Moustache 27 Series 3 , 2021 for ten days.
Three great rides totaling 140+ Kms.
Riding for me now has become exciting. Greater balance, better gear ratio, considerably more power.
Your demonstration of the e bike was superb. You went over all details carefully and explained in detail all salient points.
Many thanks for your professional assistance. I will be in touch for a service when required.
Kind regards John (30/09/2021)
Hi Len,
Thanks for the detailed and informative introduction to Debbie's Moustache Off 2 Open yesterday. I learnt a lot, and I thought I knew enough without needing to be taught how to use an e-bike - clearly I did not! In fact I cleaned up the chain on my own e-bike when I got home and it looks and feels great! And my battery will get proper care now too.
You're clearly dedicated to making sure your customers get the best out of their bikes, so well done!
Can't wait till my Moustache Wide 4 arrives!
Thanks Steve 15/09/2021
Hi Len
Thanks for a fantastic day today, very professional and we learned heaps from you on ebikes.
We are looking forward to getting out and biking again - can’t wait to see these new bikes.
Really appreciate the time you spent with us and your patience in us deciding which ones to go for.
Cheers Ewan and Anna (20/06/2021)
I bought a Samedi 27 X Road 3 from Anebike. I was having real problems finding an XL size model in the country but when I got hold of Len he was fantastic to deal with and couldn’t have been more helpful. He spent about an hour with me when I picked it going over everything on these beauties. That was so different to my past experience with other retailers. There was a slight adjustment issue with the chain that happened on my first ride but again Len dealt with it professionally and expertly. I would highly recommend anyone thinking of getting a Moustache ebike to contact Len,
you won’t be disappointed. Thanks again mate. (28/02/2021)👍😊
Hi Len
I just wanted to let you know I'm loving my new X Road FS 3. I've taken it out a few times now, including on some off road tracks with gravel, mud, rocks, etc, and it performs great through everything. The rear suspension was worth it, and it's really comfortable to ride. Plus every time I go out in the shed it makes me smile to see it as it's a work of art!
Thanks again for taking the time to make sure I got a bike that suited my needs (and putting up with Pete's cheek!). I'm looking forward to taking it on lots of adventures.
Kind regards
Linley. (11/07/2020)
Hi Len
An interesting day for sure. Very pleased to meet you. Found you very informative. Just hope we can remember everything, but knowing that you are only a phone call away, is a great help.
Jenny (04/07/2020)
Hi Len,
I hope all is going well for you.
I just wanted to start by saying that I'm very happy with the Moustache Samedi 27 X Road 5 Open eBike. It's going great and it is really very enjoyable to ride, I wish I had got one sooner! I've been doing some K's so far about 150 in the first two weeks. I had hoped to do more this long weekend but the weather here in the sunny Bay has turned wet and cold, but we need the rain. I've managed to see and ride some of the local cycle tracks that I otherwise wouldn't have had the leg power to do! so it's been really nice to do those so far and I've more planned to do. I wanted to thank you too Len for spending that time with me at the start, a couple of hours, when I purchased my eBike to go over everything in detail including even the basic's that I wasn't otherwise focusing on like cadence and proper use of the gears. That info plus all the information specific to my Moustache eBike makes me feel like I'm so much better prepared. Since then I've read up more online about Moustache eBike's and it reinforced to me what a good purchase I've made, a real quality and top performing eBike I've now got.
Kind Regards
Gary( 11/06/2020)
Hi Len.
If you recall I picked up my lovely bike a few days before lockdown. How glad am I now that we could get it in my VW.
I managed to get it out on my own and thanks to your supervisor instruction put the front wheel on.
Love it. A wonderful bike that is delivering much needed freedom and enjoyment.
Thanks
Jackie (02/04/2020)
Very pleased with my X Road 3 Moustache bike. Having now ridden it over 1000k I took it back to Len to have a couple of gear issues sorted. There were a few 'bumps' along the way but Len worked with me to ensure I was happy with the end result. He couldn't have been more generous with his support. Thanks Len (23/01/2020)
If you’re in the market for an ebike I would highly recommend shopping with Len. I recently brought my wife a new 2020 Moustache X Road 3 with pannier bag on the back. Len takes away the pain of all the research as there is so much to know about the bikes even if you come from a biking background. We enjoyed the non pushy, fun sales process and decided quickly not to shop around. Everything we needed was there so we brought it on the spot. My wife rides most days and is already building up her leg strength and fitness. Happy with our decision. Thanks Len (17/01/2020)
Hi Len,
I just wanted to let you know that my fantastic Moustache ebike is the BEST thing I have ever bought!
I ride it several times a week, usually for 25 kms or more each time, and have attached a photo to show you my mileage as of a few days ago!
I have had 3 punctures, replaced the back tyre, and have a new chain - so I really do ride the bike in all conditions!
However, thanks to your thorough instructions, I clean, lube and polish the bike very regularly!
Andrew and I belong to an active ebike group in Cambridge, and we often go on rides for around 60kms, and take our bikes all over the North Island.
It is great to have 4 Moustache ebikes, from you, in our group.
Needless to say, they stand out for durability, looks and quality...mind you, i am rather biased!
I keep an eye on the Moustache website, and see the latest bikes. Apart from the gorgeous new, bright colours, I am perfectly happy with my bike!
Happy New Year to you, and I hope you sell lots of bikes in 2020.
Kind regards,
Helen.(04/01/2020)
We bought an X Road 3 and an X Road 7 from Len at Anebike.
Len was brilliant to deal with, he has extensive knowledge and also asks the right questions so you understand the e bike best for your needs.
The bikes were delivered to Auckland in a timely fashion and Len is only a phone call away.
So thrilled with our bikes. Can only highly recommend Anebike with their premium brands. Trina (14/07/2019)
John Farrow If you want a quality ebike see Len you won’t be disappointed I have a Moustache Trail 4 12 months old 2000km all types of trails wonderful bike. (19/06/2019) 😀
We had been looking at e-bikes for several weeks and after visiting on line and in person a number of bike stores we found Len at anebike. Len was knowledgeable, helpful, and gave us his time. After two hours we had signed on the bottom line. Len then delivered the bikes to Cambridge and spent another hour and a half ensuring we were fully knowledgeable about our bikes. They ride like a dream and we couldn't be happier with the bike and service from Len. Two very happy customers Debbie and Bill. (19/06/2019)
Len's knowledge and advice allowed us to buy the right bikes for us. We are delighted with our bikes and are hitting the trails already. He won't let you leave without being sure you understand how to care for and get the best results from your bike. Bonus is the weight starting to come off because
we love riding them. 😊
Cathy and Bernie (17/02/2019)
Hi Len,
Thanks for giving me a very positive buying experience Len!
I appreciated very much the time and care you took to explain fully the details of the bike operation and maintenance (a necessity for someone of limited knowledge like me).
I am more than satisfied with the bike having now ridden a few short trips and one of 28km.
I have passed these recommendations on to friends and family!
Regards
Maggie (01/02/2019)
We are very happy with the purchase of our ebike from Len. We were very impressed with his knowledge of how to ride and look after our bike.
Len was very personable, and we highly recommend anyone interested in buying an ebike to go and see him.
Thanks Len!
Alan and Helen (25/01/19)
Hi Len,
I just wanted to thank you for giving us so much helpful advice when we bought our amazing Moustache bike last week.
You were very generous with your time, and made sure we knew exactly how to look after and use the bike properly. This is something we have never come across before.
Needless to say, the bike is in regular use, and is a joy to ride.
Kind regards
Helen and Andrew. (19/01/19)
Hello Len
Just wanted to let you know how much Barb and I appreciated your advice and assistance during our extended visit to your premises this afternoon.
We really felt that you had our interests at heart and you were not happy unless we were happy.
We are delighted with our choices and I was particularly appreciate of the trouble you went to to secure a superb deal for me on the Merida. Having looked on-line you have certainly done me a great favour and I will not breathe a word to anyone about the price.
We cannot wait to get out on the trials and enjoy the experience.
Kindest regards
Geoff and Barb (29/11/18)
Chris and I (Dennis) picked up our bikes this morning - Moustache Samedi 27 Off 2. Len has been just the best in all ways possible - from initial contact, discussion, lengthy (!) phone contact and finally today the great personal touch. We are now set up to enjoy these bikes knowing that we have made a great choice, we have all the information and support and follow up that we need, and we live 300kms away! We cannot recommend Anebike and Len more highly - he rocks. (05/05/18)
Hi Len
Just a quick note to let you know how I am getting on with the new bike. I have been for a few rides since I bought it. From 25 km rides on mountain bike trails to a 50 km ride today that included 15 Km off road and the rest on roads or footpaths.
Basically the bike has exceeded my expectations and I am loving getting out on the trails.. I look forward to hills. Battery life seems good. The 50 km ride today used about 70% of the battery.. This ride included quite a few hills and I am not light.
The bike now has a couple of scratches but all good. It is being used.
Cheers John

What this client has to say about his new Moustache Samedi 27/29 Gold
Good ride? OMG, it was the best I’ve ever had!! Put some slicks on and did a 40 km hilly road circuit out in the countryside. I wouldn’t normally go out on a day this windy but the conditions didn’t matter one bit. I tried to conserve the battery by starting out in Eco but gradually went up and finished the last 10 kms in Turbo and the battery meter still shows 4 out of 5 lights!! It might just handle the Great Barrier circuit after all (which is 5 hours, compared to 1:20 today, although the 5 hours will probably drop down to 4). The display and ease of using it REALLY impressed me. I can’t think of how it could be improved, everything on it is perfect. I haven’t even read the manual & I reckon I got it sussed. It even told me when to change up a gear. Actually the whole bike mirrors the display in that it has no unnecessary bells & whistles, just what is needed. The words functional simplicity come to mind. My top speed was 72 kph going down a steep hill, obviously without the motor. I don’t think I’ve ever got over 65 kph on my carbon racing bike! But the real joy was going up my first steep windy hill towards the end of the ride. It blasted me up so fast it was exhilarating, yet I still felt the pump I needed just not the normal bordering-on-heart-attack feel I used to get. It was a really good workout as I rode as hard as I could to save the battery but it never once got to the grinding-it-out stage where previously I would suffer about 30 minutes in that zone for that ride – was all joy, no pain. It’s also nice to have a bike that doesn’t rattle J I was surprised how low top gear was but who needs to go faster than 40 kph along the flats anyway. Wow! It’s exceeded all my expectations. I didn’t sleep after 2.30am this morning stressing that I’d done a stupid thing spending all that $. Tonight I’m going sleep real well knowing that I’ve made a great decision ... and thanks for helping me along with it! At 48 years of age I’ve been struggling to get out the door for the rides & I think it turns into a sort of vicious circle where the less you do, the less fit you become, the rides become more painful & so you more reluctant to do it again, find more excuses etc. Now I can’t wait for my next ride, especially on the trails.
Thanks for staying in touch Len & I hope you have many more customers with my experience.
Dave

Hi Len
Just had to say that I’m enjoying the bike more & more.
On my first ride I was changing through all the modes, switching on/off at stops etc. Now I just put it in Turbo and leave it there! So it’s even more simple again.
I had a great ride today & went past so many riders struggling up hills, if only they knew they don’t have to put up with that pain & yet still get a full workout. I’m not even sure if all that pain improves fitness much. Riding more often does though J
I reckon you’re going to get real busy once word catches on. Will carry your cards/flyers in my bike pack as bound to get enquiries.
Thank again mate, got a lot of work challenges at the moment & only have to think of the Moustache to return a sile to my face.

Hi Len
Finally fine enough for our Sunday ride....put a coat over the battery & didn't let on (only 3 of us today) First big hill (had on Eco mode & made it look like I was struggling a bit) funny smelly Scotsman that organises the group bleated on about E-bikes. (he evidently hired a bike for the day & was pretty rapt with it).....he said he would teach us all to ride an E-bike on our next ride - still said nothing but had to hide my smile. He also hired e-bike for a day in Waiheke so getting serious.
Next big hill was coming up at Orakei (long & steep) decided to make my bolt there in Turbo mode ...overtook the Scot & flew up the hill laughing so much my face hurt! I'm usually crawling behind him (he is quite fit for 70 something)...I thought they must know now but still didn't twig! The Scott looked a bit mortified when I said he was slowing down on the hills a bit. Finally let the cat out of the bag - they were surprised as it doesn't look like an E-bike. Then it pissed down with rain & they decided to take the train.....not I - won't take me long to zoom home! Think they were a bit dejected but I couldn't help myself.
O I had fun, even dripping wet - had a decent run but didn't use much battery.
I'm so in love with my silver beast....had to tell you this funny story also cc. to my friend Len who recommended me to you...he said you can't go wrong with a name like that! He brought an e-bike.

Hi Len
Have been riding my ebike for about 3 months now and still love it!! Can go on all the trail rides with Kevin now and beat him up the hills and stand there and say "hurry up" .
Did the Waihi Trail ride on weekend and loved every minute of it and looking forward to doing many more. The hardest bit now is not the hills but getting the "butt" into shape. =)
Would highly recommend to all riders especially women or anyone that doesnt get out there due to disabilities or the such.
It is now a pleasure to be able to get out and ride with faster riders and be able to keep up.
I am fitter now than I ever have been . Its great to have the option of having the power of the ebike or riding it as a conventional bike.
All Kevins hardened mountain bike riders are all impressed and reckon they would get one if they ever cant ride to their maximum as they get older. They are all amazed how easy it is to ride and how comfortable it is .
Any one wants an honest opinion on one send them my way.
