Is it legal to have an electric bike, (or in this case a sit up & beg trike), that is restricted to 15mph by the gearing? The motor would either be a 500watt or possibly a 1000watt cyclone on 48volts. reason for asking is I'm knocking up a 'shopping' trike and have both motors lying around the...

If you ever have a chance to go and watch one of the stages take it. The whole rolling 'caravan' as letour comes through comes through and the atmosphere is tremedous and even non-sporty types like me get swept up in it.

That's why we're all in the ****e isn't it :(

About a year or so ago there were quite a few of these advertised on eBay. I watch a couple in BurryPort using one to carry their camping gear whilst they rode on an unassisted tandem. They seemed to be getting on OK but it was only their 2nd day and the cycle path they were using is pretty...

Feel like a broke-down engine, ain't got no drive at all. Feel like a broke-down engine, ain't got no whistle or bell, Is probably more fitting for this thread (not from the Desire album)

I've just noticed this thread & as I have the same bike as the OP thought I'd add my observations. I weigh in at 10 1/2 stone use the bike for an average of around 14 miles a week on full assist on reasonably steep inclines. I'm disabled and cannot pedal so being reliant on the bike I carru a...

Or a Banker

Thanks flecc

Sorry to butt in but I've got confused. Please could you confirm what is the correct storage voltage for a 36v batt? I'm having a thick day and whilst I understand 40% of the charge can be 39v, is 39v the correct storage for 4 weeks(ish) & whats the charge voltage.

As Mussels says the BMS is there for a reason but reading up on other forums it seems a lot of people don't use them they use other means like a Cycle Analyst etc. looking at your picture you have the same battery as this one & it's simple to unplug the white plug where all the small colored...

Well probably I've done this the wrong way but each cell reads just over 4v, all were equal so I connected it to my 250watt folder still on the stand firstly with the BMS still attached and it cut out under load then disconnected the BMS where it runs OK. I monitored the voltage and no...

Thanks for the case offer & the advice. Whilst I was using the charger the 3 lights on the battery came on when I pressed the button however when I turned charger off only 2 light up. I jury rigged it to my bike which is set on a bike trainer and it worked OK until I applied a load which I think...

I know they're A big company with all the evils that go with that but I ordered a Multimeter yesterday evening & it arrived 2 hours ago and I live in the **** end of nowhere.I couldn't have got to a shop that quickly.

Here's a couple of pic's out of the aluminum case I've re-soldered the wire that had come off the key-switch, the other breakage is between the small fuse & charging plug but unfortunately my workshop pencil fairy has borrowed my voltmeter so I cannot take any readings. However there are lights...

I've just rescued a Phyllion XH 370-10 battery. It's apparently from a bike that was on a rear rack on a Motor home which reversed into a tree. The bike motor etc have long gone but the batt was heading for a skip 'till I saw it. Question. Where can I read up or find info about the wiring &...

Thanks for the links but £570 puts it out of my reach at the moment, 'though I've got another cyclone kit build coming up :)

Well I'm impressed where can I get a 16ah 36v battery?

Has anyone purchased one of these 36V 9AH Water Bottle Type Electric E-bike Li-ion Battery, Panasonic Cells | eBay from or can tell me anything about them please? I'm looking for a spare for my Pro-Rider E-Wayfarer, they offer replacements (10 amp li-Ion for £289 with a years guarantee but...
