    what would your second bike be

    nigel it would be a mountain bike with good off road capabilities, we have loads of concrete/ grass sea defences with miles of beaches in my area, a bike with a low top speed but good handling on hard sand , a range of 25-30miles would give a great day out picnic and binoculars in my bag.:D...

    extraenergy delay

    just to back that up it looks like i could have bought an improved powabyke system with a lithium battery, it would have cost £300 more and from what i can find out would give about 10km more range, i dont think thats much of an improvement for £300. if i tow a trailer with a spare lead acid...

    Probably a silly question about batteries

    this sounds the same as my powabyke system if it is i dont think its a true pedalec system, but it works well once you get used to it,even in pedalec you are in total control of how much power you use. mike

    Nimh battery packs from Batteryspace.com - Price Shock!

    probably a very good reason why they cant,but its a pity the batteries cant be used in holders that can be clipped together, to form what ever power pack you need, then any body could rebuild a pack any time they wanted ;)...
