I've had a look. One of the small wires from the charger port does look a little chewed up. I've got a friend who's an electrical engineer who's promised to come over tomorrow afternoon and have a look. I think I've got *just* enough juice to get to work tomorrow. Failing that, have a prayer...

Thanks, PH001. I don't have a DC voltmeter, but it was also my husband's best guess that I nipped a wire when I popped the case back together. We'll open it up and have a look later. If it is the BMS, I don't think I have the courage to attempt it on my own. We'll see.

I plugged my battery into the charger, the light went straight to green and no charging happened. Zo! Is it the charger, or the battery? If it's the battery, can anybody recommend a refurber? (I looked for a stickied thread on the topic and couldn't find). If it matters: 30 month old Freego...

I got that down fairly early on. Last time I failed, it was for -- I swear I'm not making this up -- being "insufficiently aggressive going into a roundabout."

Actually, 1.3. I walked in but I made my husband pick me up afterwards. And it's unintentional, believe me. I'm an immigrant and I cannot for the life of me pass your flipping practical driving exam, even after forty years of driving and a spotless record.

That is brilliant. You've given me an awful lot to think about...

That's fascinating, Si. Thanks for taking the time to explain. I look forward to following your work. I don't suppose there are videos of you riding that triangular thingie...? It looks decidedly like something the coyote would order from Acme.

I have a massive 2.6 mile daily commute. Yes, yes...I know I could walk that. I did for 18 months. Tiresome in the rainy season. Anyway, welcome. You'll definitely find what you seek in the techy threads.

Oh, man, I am completely captured by the idea of 3D printing. I used to do 3D modeling back in the day and I keep promising myself I'll take time and refresh my skills. I still don't understand how you 3D print metal components (I assume they're metal) that are structurally strong enough to do...

When I were a lass, kids' bikes were always fixies in the States. And I have the knee scars to prove it. I admit, I shuddered a bit when I read your first message (I misinterpreted it to mean a fixie, too). I didn't know there was such a thing as a onesie, though! That's probably for me, for my...

I ordered mine a week before Christmas. It arrived, I put it together...somehow, they left the pedals out of the box! To the seller's credit, they drove a pair out to me that day. After dark. And there was a huge storm next day. I, too, know the feels.

You've got five levels of assistance? The Eagle and the Regency are not the same, then. I only have three. The battery meter will plummet when it's under load; on mine, even a freshly charged battery will drop to one or two bars going up a steep hill. It rebounds on the level to a more...

E-bikes direct! That's over my way! Wasn't there a dealer closer to you? Oh, and welcome...

Hi Rozovy. I have the Freego Regency, which I think is just an Eagle with a poncey paint job. Been commuting for just over a month and very happy with it -- though with a 3-mile round trip, my demands are not heavy. I won't weigh in on your other thread as I have no idea what I'm talking about...
