Thanks both, seems I pays my money and takes my chance.

Hello. Can anybody advise me on the on road legality of an e-bike I would like. It has a 750 watt motor but it can be ridden .......... 1/ Pedal assist only max speed 15mph. 2/ PA & throttle limited through the display/computer to 15mph. 3/ Throttle only max speed can be set to 15mph. [to...

I have and ebike a Cube Acid which I am giving a once over before taking it out on the road again this year. Just got a track pump and can see that the tyres are 23 to 50 PSI, how should I set them front to rear. I'm 15 1/2 stone and will mainly ride on tracks, some roads and a little hillside...

The ebike I decided to go for was a CUBE ACID HYBRID ONE 500 19" frame 29" wheels. I wanted the version that had mudguards and a Pannier on the rear plus front and rear lighting but the only version they had in stock was the mountain bike version. This doesn't have any of the above but the shop...

Welcome.

Doing as you suggested GSV3MiaC I went to a flat stretch of road. I put it in mid gear range and peddled without the motor assist being on, ugh it was like moving a TANK. I then switched on the motor, left it in the same gear position and selected TURBO and peddled away...……. zooooom it went...

Thanks for the explanation gents. I think I have been expecting output for no or little input. I had noticed that I seemed to need to change gear frequently when I thought that I would get extra oomph from the motor sensing I was having to push heavy on the pedals. This made me think I...

Hello New to ebikes about 1 month but since I've been riding I don't seem to notice any difference in the power between TURBO AND ECO Modes which are the top and bottom of the ranges. I tried to test out the system today by lifting up the rear wheel and hand peddling in the different mode...

Thanks all for your knowledge. It seems a little complex if it is just to keep the pads apart, is it meant to do other things too? I'll go and google how to use it. Best

Just having a re-read of my new ebike paperwork and a tidy up of everything and found this item amongst the paperwork.. I've no idea what it is can anybody explain it please. Regards

Ok that's scared me off so I think I'll go down the route like Tarka has suggested. See my comments in post #9 above. Thanks Soundwave you are a font of knowledge, many thanks again. I'm making you my personal first call person as I'm sure I will have some more questions. Best

Hello Soundwave I've just had a look at the videos you showed above and they don't look difficult to follow. Great find thank you. The big problem will be the cost and the fact those lights appear to work of a remote push button whereas I was hoping that I could use the Purion LCD already fitted...

Wow soundwave I'm laying down from the shock of the price it would cost me for those lights. I think I'll go down the route of choosing from the many manufacturers that make some suitable offerings. I don't think I want to dig about inside the motor either just in case I break something. Many...

LOL very true Amoto65 but the drive to have an ebike won out and the Cube Acid seemed suitable for my needs. This is my first ebike and my knowledge level is quite low. I hadn't realised that all suppliers of Cube had sold out of those versions so I was left to do as you say or buy a much...

Hello all. I wanted to purchase a Cube ACID hybrid one 500 Allroad 29 but had to settle for its brother the ACID hybrid one 500 29 as there wasn't any of the Allroad available in the UK. The only differences between them is the Allroad has the addition of mudguards, kick stand and lights, the...
