All OK now, I purchased one and it works a treat. Dave

I ordered one from Germany that I found, seems like a decent firm with good reviews. However, I went out on the bike this morning just using the rear hub and that battery is well on it`s way out as well so the chap you are referring to could maybe refurbish the original? the bike is the...

I have a rear wheel hub and it is fine. After I had a heart attack and to assist me I fitted a front wheel hub as well (only for riding off road tracks obviously) it makes all the difference being as I also have worn out knees. I only use the front hub when I struggle on uphill sections but that...

Thanks Dave

Yeh! at present, new cooker, work to be done on my van and the central heating guy is due in the morning to have a listen to a boiler problem and since the last heart attack I`ve hung up my tools. We`ll see, I know the re-cell is really the way to go, more so with my wife`s bike it will at least...

Have any of you people ever considered a single wheel trailer with 3 x 12v car batteries? I know that SLA batteries can fall short of the Amh required but car batteries should be OK???

Thanks, sorry it took me a while to answer, I was waiting for an e mail to let me know someone had answered my post but nothing came through. So, not much has changed, almost half the cost of a cheap bike for the battery. What have you found is the average life span for a battery on the bikes...

Hiya I`ve been out of e bikes for a while after having another heart attack, anyway for the need of some light local exercise out comes the bike and it works fine. My wife wants to be along with me for obvious reasons at least for a while and we also want to take our bikes on my van to pastures...

I did watch that and others but can`t see anything specific on the movement sensor but having great fun.

I just treated myself to an sj4000 video cam. I`ve been into photography for most of my adult life so am not easily pleased with IQ from most cams. I must say that I am impressed with the video performance on the bike and in the car. OK, it`s not anything like my Canon 5dmk3 as far as video goes...

I remember when I first joined, my first bike was a powertrek dynamo, as I remember eddie told me that I had been sold a pup and it was rubbish and then some time down the road the guy that started oxygen bikes said that he had had one and basically (as I remember) he fashioned his bike range on...

The cat in the picture died just before Christmas at only 4 years old, he just fell over and passed away.(we don`t know why and the vet had a look at him and couldn`t find anything wrong so just one of those things, he was my wifes special mate and she still gets upset.) We still have four...

Hiya I remember you well :-)

Hiya mate, long time no talk.

Hi flecc, there are a lot more bikes to choose from now. Have there been any new break throughs in battery technology?
