    2018 Yamaha Electric Bike Updates at Interbike

    Thanks soundwave. I have already sent one of the batteries to d8veh (Dave) on this forum, as he said he was happy to take a look for me. But I will certainly think about it depending on what the outcome is. Cheers

    2018 Yamaha Electric Bike Updates at Interbike

    Exactly Yes thanks soundwave. I realise it sounds like a silly question. That is exactly what I thought. But had a similar problem with two batteries. The second new battery just failed to work straight away. Guess that's what you get for a £300 battery. Should have paid the rediculous £850...

    Upping by budget for an ebike. But which one?

    Sorry soundwave. Strange, it missed out some of my text? The issue is, I like the sound of being able to plug something in to derestrict and to remove in seconds simply by unplugging, but they will only do it if you buy a bike from them (which I havent). Also, I dont know what this site use to...

    The issue is, the ebike shop will only add the dongle if you buy the bike from them. Frustrating. See the following: "For the past few years we have been extremely successful with our exclusive Bosch tuning kits that derestrict the electric bike so that you can reach assisted speeds of over...

    Upping by budget for an ebike. But which one?

    I went for the haibike in the end. Managed to get it for £1890 with ebikes direct. (originally £2100. So pretty good price. I will derestrict myself though. Looks pretty easy on youtube

    Upping by budget for an ebike. But which one?

    That does sound temping. Is it really easy to switch between road legal and derestricted at a flick of a button so to speak? I have heard the police are clamping down in certain areas and have a means to check your bike?
