I used to enjoy this forum. I used to consider myself knowledgeable on the subject of ebikes (a lot of it gleaned from Tony - Flecc) I now find myself an infrequent visitor. Has Flecc become patronising? No, of course not, he's a gentleman. No... It's the ubiquitous Jeremy. Well Jeremy, it's...

Whilst Bradley deserved the honour, I do feel that Steve Redgrave was more deserving. Seems my iPhone agrees as it auto filled his name :)

Yes, + 1 on that. Torq 1 at full tilt way too cold..

I don't think it's limited to extradition. It's a shame that the below is purely fictional :( YouTube

The most effective motorcycle gloves for me were heated ski gloves. The ones I have run off small square lithium cells, and are quite expensive. You can buy into heated gloves more cheaply if you can live with some extra bulk. How about these - run off D cells but at £4.69 you probably can't go...

Does anyone recall the EU SAFERIDER initiative? Saferider | Start It seems to have died a death, but it did gather momentum for a while. Personally, whilst it is entirely hypothetical, I resent the limiting of my ZZR1400 to 300kph on principle. I mean what possible purpose can it serve...

+1 on Flecc's advice. I have had similar problems and fixed them this way. Just don't overdo it.

I use MotionX. It allows you to download and cache maps to your device (eg using your home network) for instant recall later. It has a whole host of other useful functions as well. Not sure if it's available for Android though. MotionX® | MotionX-GPS Overview

I have a pair of lumicycle 4si, one flood and one spot. On boost, they kick out 1120 lumens each. I can't conceive of ever needing anymore, and you can't run them on boost if you're stationary, due to the heat (they automatically switch down). Lumicycle are now selling 3XML lights @ 3000...

Hi Andy Well, there is Petersfield Cycles, and Cytronex at Winchester to consider also. You don't state your budget, but you may find their stealth approach might very well suit. If you can get to Denmead, I'd happily show you (completely unbiased) the pros and cons of the three different types...

Hi Andy Welcome to the forum Whereabouts in Hampshire are you located? Nick

Wow. Another dedicated ebike supplier on my doorstep (Cytronex being the other). Better not tell SWMBO...

They could make the whole thing quicker if they dispensed with the "music". After all, it has no bearing on the result. Reminds me of the Father Ted episode featuring 'my lovely horse'.

My ideal bike? As others have said, it depends on how/where it will be used, however as an all rounder, and at the risk of abuse: Ezee Torq mk1 (offroad mode) Marathon plus tyres 20ah battery Twin lumicycle lights Oh - that would be my bike ;)
