HI Eric
Yes I lost power complete, that's why the comment "god it's heavy" maybe the battery is not yet "conditioned" and if all else fails read the instructions...I did not charge the battery until the leds went out, too eager I guess. Trip today was 28km of Cornish roads, to Torpoint, was feeling a bit aprehensive as the last hill home is steep enough to drive up in 3rd for most cars, and I ache a bit from yesterday...but three leds on battery and two on controller, arrived home bright, and battery charged fully in 2.5 hrs, will try tomorrow to ride it flat and see what happens. I think I like my new bike, will take a little getting used to..my real love was my last one weight 8k 24 gears bought when I was only 60 and still up for it, with the new one I feel like a Dutch widow cycling to church.
