    Finally.

    Finally its happened. At last I can rest. I have found God. I have found home. All I ever wanted in life was to be able to walk into the Evans Bike shop in Wimbledon and get some respect. Its not much to ask for. Just a modicum of respect. When I walked in there. With an ebike. My...

    Haibike for £1800 and they shop direct to UK

    How about this: Halibike for sale Tempting. Less than the £2750 wanted if you buy them directly in the UK.

    This looks nice dont you think?

    Another one from our German friends. I sure wish there was a store in London you could just go and see these for in the flesh! Here.

    Very cool but seriously what sort of range would you get?

    From our German friends I saw this: Nice? But then I saw the battery is 6.6Ah - and its 48V - so what kind of range will you get with that? 10 miles max? No more right?

    Anybody know?

    Where this guy is sourcing that battery from? 48V battery looks pretty slim... Not seen it on any of the sites usually pointed to here. Anybody any ideas?

    Scam/Fraud beware?

    Hi all, You may have seen this on ebay: Burische for sale on Ebay not official? I think its a fraud - I called Ryan (the guy who owns Burische and who I bought my Burische off) and he says its nothing to do with him - its copy and pasted from the original advert - and it has his...

    The plan so far.

    So I was in my local Evans earlier today and they had this utterly gorgeous Specialised 'thing' mountain bike looked like a carbon frame white no shock forks 10 speed utterly beautiful work of art I think it was £1600 and weighed about half an ounce. So I have this Burisch motor arriving...

    Figuring out these Chinese....

    OK so I am trying to find a 48V controller that has a pedelec function - I dont just want a throttle. I found one that says this: wiring instructions: 1. The power cord:big red +big black- - - - 2. Electric Door Lock Cable: middle red 3. The motor cable: big yellow+ big green+ big...

    OK another technical question

    Just for the hell of it (OK to see if I could make the think go faster) - I tried out a new controller for my oxygen bike. It said it was 500W 'unrestricted'. OK. Fair enough. I wired it up and did not connect the two white wires together (if you know the answer to this question I think...

    Slightly technical.....

    Having a week off work I am experimenting with my bike........ as in I am experimenting with putting a different controller into it........ need a bit of help if possible: On my current bike (Oxygen emate) the three wires coming off the PAS (pedal sensor) are red, black and yellow - whereas...

    Just what I was looking for.

    Ok so for those keeping up with the story the 44T front 14 rear on the Burisch was hopelessly too low geared so I tried upping it first to 48 then 50T at the front but even thats not much good......... So then I think OK so I need a smaller rear cog top gear - 14T is just too big. BUT - and...

    Any ideas how come?

    Any ideas how come more people dont have an electric bike? To me it seems really weird that you see so many regular cyclists but hardly any electric bikes out there. Why the heck is that? Surely anybody who has ridden one will see how great they are - I don't get it - I see cyclists near...

    Aiming for 16kg

    OK. Lets say I wanted to make myself a bike very similar to mine (which is a pretty bog standard Oxygen Emate race) - because I like all the basics (rear hub, suspension forks, throttle, quality build, etc) - BUT - I wanted it significantly lighter (a standard Oxygen race comes in around 24Kg)...

    Forgive me if this is a stupid question....

    Ok please correct me if I'm wrong.... but..... To convert my (other) bike to electric all I need is any 36V battery (I am soon to have a spare one of those) - any 36V 250W controller (they seem pretty easy to get hold of on ebay) - and any 36v? throttle? Yes? So long as they're all...

    Hi all, I just saw the BH Emotion Neo Cross - looks really neat - see here: BH Emotion Neo Cross Electric Bike Review - YouTube and BH Emotion Neo Cross What I need to know is - does anybody know if its legal - they say it has a 350W motor 'limited to 250W'. Is that allowed? Is that...

    Squeeking front brake help please.

    Hi there, I've been riding an Oxygen e-mate for 3 months now and generally very happy with it - the range is excellent (70 miles once) and quality generally excellent. One thing cropped up yesterday - no idea why - the front brake started to give off a pretty loud squeek but only when the...

    Oxygen emate 3 months later....
