    Giant Laftree Twist Comfort For Sale

    Hi Flecc, Also good to see you're still alive and peddling! I've finally fully retired now and learned to say no (not always!) when the phone rings so have a bit more time now. Yes the Batteryspace batteries have always worked very well on the Lafree which was so far ahead of its time.

    Giant Laftree Twist Comfort For Sale

    Anyone interested in making an offer for my old trusty Lafree before I put it on FleaBay? Men's 2003 model enhanced with SRAM P5 gears and Marathon tyres a few years ago. Battery pack batteries were replaced about six years ago and I believe one cell has gone as the voltage is slightly low, so...

    WANTED : Giant Lafree Twist Lite Battery

    Going back a bit as I've not been active on the board since it appeared that MP's expenses came before keeping my village Post Office open. I'm now back working in an office and it's too far for the bike. Last time I replaced my cells about two years ago I used these cells from USA...

    old and sad

    Re the power cuts, we are the last on the power line going out of the village and have frequently sat in darkness. I now have a 2kw Honda standby genny in the garage all set up for the flick of an isolation switch. Keeps the telly, PC and freezer and most importantly the central heating...

    Be safe... be BIG

    Like it!!! and a lot of sense. I rate 8 with lights like a Christmas tree, but will get the high vis waistcoat on in future. Reminds me of when I used to ride my moped from Deal to Dover every day. Single carriageway winding road. Flat out at 32mph (on the flat) I used to sit right in the...

    Giant lafree twist electrical breakdown

    Wouldn't have thought it was that as, when I had dodgy terminals, I got not lights at all. In this case the red light is coming on initially. This suggest power. Sav.

    Where to get Batteries

    Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!!!! :mad: :mad: Yup, I'm pleased with that. Would have settled for 25. The battery indicator is still reading too low on the new cells, but its not a problem with a trip meter and may sort itself. Sav

    Where to get Batteries

    First report on the Yank batteries after three charging cycles. Running in rolling downs, so mostly hilly country with virtually no flat stuff. Me @ almost 60 & 16 stone of not very fit condition. Left the control on permanent eco. so no attempt at economy by turning off on the bits of flat...

    help ime under attack

    Good!! More likely there was a problem with the file in that it got slightly corrupted in the upload / transfer. OE's protocols didn't know how to handle it. I've seen that several times when a file causes OE to go around in cirlcles. Sav.

    Where to get Batteries

    Finished the first set of runs with the new 10Ah cellpack, up and down to the local Post office, absolutely no flat stuff whatsoever. After 17 miles of lugging this 16 stone pensioner up and down the hill it went down to one light. I was a little disappointed, but thought ah well its the...

    DIY Battery

    Just to back up what Flecc has said. I was surprised how easy it turned out to be to recell thanks to Flecc's guide and a bit of Googling to find the 10Ah cellpack. Weather's not been condusive to riding far and I've had manflu for the last few days, so I've yet to get an estimate of the...
