Haven't heard about a TidalForce, but Matra in France - http://www.matra-ms.com/ - is using the Wavecrest motor/battery system in several bikes. If you go to their website and follow the link: Velos et Cyclos Electriques - you'll find an IO lookalike and another IO variant. Looks like they're for sale around the continent (but not the UK, Canada or US?). I found out about Matra while reading the TidalForce Forum in Google Groups - http://groups.google.com/group/Tidal.../everything-tf

Secondly, there are 3 TidalForce bikes currently for sale on ebay (disclaimer - not from me!). An M-750x, an S-750x, and an IO (i think). I found them with the following search string - (tidalforce,"tidal force") in the ebay search area. I'm surprised at how well they're holding their value.
