    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Apart from one DOA, Corsairs work fine for me (avoid grey market/rejects), but I'm not a gamer. They're much more sensitive to short circuits and dicky connections than other power supplies I've tried - seemingly dead ones can often be revived with a paperclip. Aren't wired mice better for...

    Radrunner Cargo E-Bike? No, it's the new Fiido T1

    If you have to stop at the roadside, whip out a USB programming cable, disconnect the display cable, attach the USB programming cable to the wiring loom, to connect your laptop or phone to the Bafang controller to change speed limit - it's not a switch. But opinions vary.

    Radrunner Cargo E-Bike? No, it's the new Fiido T1

    the fact that you can change the speed limit means by law it is not road legal, i had to buy a dongle for my bike at a rip off price because i cant change the speed limit as it is software locked not even a dealer can change this. Derestriction, ‘off-road’ switches or modes and dongles The...

    New Forest could ban e-bikes from cycle trails

    ...motor bikes, hiding behind label pedelec certainly hasn't helped. And this forum hasn't helped either. Want to derestrict a bike, fit a dongle or build a 1500w motor bike? Here's the place to ask. Then say "I, m using it off road".. Which in reality no longer exists in UK. (off road is gated...

    E bike speedo

    The speedo might well register the wrong mileage (and speed) if the bike has been used with a dongle. The seller will probably have removed it before selling. A dongle might well have put added strain on the battery as well.

    Trial E-scooters in London - additional conditions

    The problem is there is no real penalty for riding one illegally so it is perceived as only being slightly illegal, a bit like a dongle on an ebike, in fact most people dont know anything about the law and buy them for their children as a toy.. whereas driving a car without the relevant...

    Yamaha PW hacked.

    Those using a Yamaha PW motor/battery combo can now save few quid by using a third party battery on the bike. A dongle has been designed to hack the system to use said third party battery. Although CANbus isn't used the motor/battery still use comms between each other and the charger. Battery...

    Speed dongle battery?

    My badass dongle equivalent (speedclip) on a Haibike is now 4 years old and has now failed. It started dragging at 18 mph and then recently fading like an empty bike battery. It’s a sealed unit with no removable cove unless I cut it off. Is there a battery I can replace inside?

    jimmy no longer recells bosch battery's !

    i have a dongle so 20% chunks does not mean much as have no idea what the range will be and a % from 100-0 would give me a better idea on range as got more than 3 miles with 3 bars lol as try's to est the range but goes out the window when you use a dongle.

    jimmy no longer recells bosch battery's !

    My Cube/Bosch CX bike is 4yrs old now, it has a Bosch 500 battery which only gives me 20 miles range, but then I do have Badass dongle fitted so the battery/motor will be working more than otherwise. My commute is 5 miles each way, though I don't really use the motor above 15mph much as i'm...
