Thanks for your sharing your expertise Flecc I know for sure the battery was fully charged on October 21, December 7, and January 30. I also remember I recharged it a couple times in between these times, as I thought there would be a break in the weather and I'd be able to ride into town...

I have a problem. I bought my bike new last September and with the onset of wet weather and snow I haven't ridden it more than 100 miles since I bought it, and the battery has been recharged maybe 15 times and not more than 20. This bike has a hub motor and a 360 watt 10 amp hour Phylion...

Today there was a break in the wet weather and at last I got to ride my ebike till it ran out of power. :) It was interesting. I charged up the battery and then went 15 miles before I noticed I was having problems getting up the hills due to a lack of power. It wasn't that the motor...

I did it! I did! it I did it! :) Such a little thing. Such great feeling of satisfaction. If at first you don't succeed keep obsessing about it until you do! I think the problem may be that the pump I have doesn't work well with a presta adapter because it's built not to need one. The...

Thanks for the input. You're all right about the woods valves being hard to work with. The adapter I have looks just like the adapter in the link posted above. What I find really surprising is I can't find any clear instructions anywhere on line telling how to inflate a tire with a woods...

I think I might have figured out how the pump converts from being set up for a schrader valve to a presta. From what I read in yahoo answers it sounds like most modern pumps are dual purpose for schrader and presta. It looks like this pump may convert by screwing off the metal head that...

The Chinese made ebike I have has a Woods / Dunlop valve which won't let me pump up my tires without an adapter, so today I spent the whole day traveling into the nearest town which has these and back. I have never pumped up a bike tire and starting with a woods valve and no one to show me...

Thanks so much for the information. It does help. I don't know much about ebikes and I was worrying I made a mistake. Now I feel more confident in my impression that the bike will do what I need it to, and the small loss of power due to age of the battery is probably not worth worrying about...

I just bought my first ebike in mid September 2008. I live in an out of the way rural area and shopping around for the perfect bike wasn't easy. In these parts our winters usually have a temperature of 4 to 10 degrees Celsius, and in the winter I need my bike for transportation into the...
