Times and distances are estimates by car from our Guildford showroom with no traffic, worked out from OpenStreetMap route data. Allow longer at busy times. Mopeds and learner riders cannot use motorways, so plan a different route if you are riding.

Planning a trip from East Sussex

Phone before you set off. We can tell you what is in the showroom and answer licence questions, which could save you the trip. Riding home is not realistic. Brighton is about 58 miles away, and our road legal bikes' claimed ranges are measured at 25 to 31 mph, so arrange delivery or bring a van.

For city riding in Brighton, a road legal bike has to be registered, taxed and insured. Off the road, the South Downs bridleways are closed to motor vehicles. Off-road models such as the Surron Light Bee X and Hyper Bee are for private land with the landowner's permission, or a track that allows them. You cannot ride them on roads, pavements, footpaths, bridleways, parks or commons. Police can seize a bike ridden illegally.
