But not forgotten. As of 1.20 pm today my electric bike has disappeared from my life in the back of a carrier’s van. All I am waiting for now is my refund. <\/p>\n
Earlier I checked the CDiscount web site from where I bought it and now find that although the ‘seller’ is still there, they are not now offering either of the two Dakeya models, the DA06 ‘hard tail’ with no rear suspension that I had, or its sister DA03 with rear suspension.<\/p>\n
There are, however, a few other similar bikes on offer there which, as I’ve mentioned previously, have different brand names but probably come from the same factory. I assume that they will also come without Certificates of Conformity and I can’t understand why CDiscount is continuing to allow this to happen after I’ve alerted them to the situation.<\/p>\n
As expected, I have heard nothing from the DREAL, the French authority responsible for individually registering my bike, and I’m sure they will continue to drag their feet for as long as they can, possibly avoiding coming back to me at all if I don’t rattle their chain and chivvy them up. Such is the way of state bureaucracy in France.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
