    Has anyone bought a rear light alarm with remote control?

    Many years ago I had a first with a device like this...I built my own. For the alarm I used one of those open window warning devices that you fix to the window frame and a magnet that attaches to the window itself. If someone tries to open the window the magnet moves away from a reed switch and...

    Has anyone bought a rear light alarm with remote control?

    If you copy off the words " 433MHz Wireless Auto Remote Control Duplicator Key" and paste them into fleabay you'll find quite a few on sale, some labelled alphabetically like your original. Funnily enough my original remote has icons on the buttons like the one above, good idea having a spare...

    Is it worth using a tracker?

    Just did....absolutely nothing . There's ways around everything if you know how, that's half the fun of it staying one jump ahead. As it happens I've got nothing to hide anyway I just don't like the idea of huge organizations benefiting from my movements or preferences. Some years ago I had a...

    Is it worth using a tracker?

    The best advice I could give on tracking devices is turn them off !! After all do you really want every tom dick & harry knowing where you are at any one time ? You pop out for a bike ride telling the whole world where you are via ' Map My Ride ' or one of the many other cycle ride mapping...

    Sellers mark items up at crazy prices sometimes when they run out of stock but want to keep the item online. If you contact them they'll tell you when stock is available again.

    Help! My pedelec suddenly got faster (SameBike JG20, YSDX20, XW-20ZC) - long text!

    Don't these bikes have the "restriction wire" in the controller? if so maybe it's become unconnected and thus no more speed restriction....rejoice! BTW, who's Hou ??

    Interesting seat suspension device.

    Yeah...such devices have been around for years in various guises. What would concern me is where is all that energy going that's bouncing you up and down ? Now if someone could come up with a generator that attached to the spring that would put all those wasted watts back into a battery, well....

    Am I looking for something that doesn’t exist?

    The real answer if you want to lug a bike around in a car is to get a folder. My partner has just got herself a new Honda Jazz which I believe is slightly longer than the earlier versions so I'm guessing my e-folder will go in without too much trouble.

    pedalease 2 x1 1500w 48-60v motor and controller in rear wheel."Error 10" display SW900 lcd3

    I believe error 10 is a communications fault between the Controller and the LCD. It could well be an incorrect wiring sequence or just a wire not connected.

    New front light pls

    Just search on ebay, they start from £1.99 and go up to £850 ! If it's likely to get stolen you may as well go for something that's cheap and easily replaceable.

    KT Controller problems.

    Thanks guys...all is now working correctly. Daniel you were right about the C1 setting, now working with forward peddling only. Torque also working as it should although I can only test on the road properly of course under load. Thanks also to Neal & Vrf, all useful information stored for...

    KT Controller problems.

    Hi Daniel, well yeah I did wonder that because I'm testing on a bike stand at the moment. So checked online and some videos on you tube demonstrating the different modes of drive show torque in action, bikes on work stands with no load applied. Of course not all systems are the same, maybe my...

    KT Controller problems.

    OK so these are my findings. Set to P3=0 I have PAS at levels 1-5 and throttle works as normal. Set to P3=1 PAS is still operational ? but at full speed, adjusting levels make no difference. I'm not confusing speed with torque as the motor kicks in at full power when the cranks are turned...
