Job done! Well, following the advice kindly given to me here, I have bought and fitted a throttle to my UM36SX. I purchased through Steve at Powarider (PowaRider - Electric Bikes) and it was received quickly and well packaged. Steve provided me with brilliant fitting instructions, plus some...

Mark, Thanks for the very generous 'full refund' offer, that's great and indeed very fair. Should I or can I therefore buy direct from you once you have them in stock? Thanks also for your help with the rear light, it is appreciated. Cheers, Peter

Hi Mark, Thanks for your reply. If you are confident that the throttle kit will function correctly and adequately on my bike, then I'll order one from PowaRider and see how it goes. I'll post a review of the throttle and the bike itself in due course on pedelecs.co.uk One final thing...

Had a look at both and cannot find anything yet. Thanks for the suggestions though :) Peter

The users manual does not indicate that it is not possible on the 36v, although the manual is generic for all UM e-bikes. I'll be bl**dy annoyed if it isn't possible!! :mad: I have not yet tried the office as I believe they're all at The Gadget Show Live this week, so I'll try next week. I...

Hello everyone, I've just taken delivery of my first ever electric bike - and my first bike at all for about 30 years!! After much deliberation, and forum reading, I went for the Urban Mover UM36SX. I'll post a review once I've clocked up some miles. Meantime, I'd like one of those...
