    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Must be me but the fact we cant just pull out without being punished speaks volumes about our EU brethren. Why dont they just let us go with grace,then our future problems could be held up as an example to any other countries who may want to follow. ;)

    Want a more powerfull ebike

    Forget it,the EU is limiting the power of vacuum cleaners and hair driers,you will now have a max 900watt cleaner and spend twice as long cleaning as you would with an 1800 watt :eek: I love Europe ;)

    Powabyke euro question

    Thanks,I think the problem is i have ridden it with a few keys hanging down from the switch and the weight and bouncing up and down has caused play inside the switch,this means its hit and miss switching it on and can cut out during use. Will have a look inside the casing and get back to you.

    Trying to think outside the box

    Perhaps your needs could make a three wheeler viable,you cant get away from the handling characteristics but could possibly work within them. If you mainly want it for dog walking and are happy to travel at 4-6 mph you may get on with it. I have the powabyke Euro and it does the job but i think...
