    Overtaking men on road bikes!

    Not quite that extreme. Thinking about it more, if it was a conversion kit on his bike he probably had more gears to play with than I do with the 7-speed which with informaton on this forum I have changed from a 28-14t to a more welsh hill friendly 34-14t.

    Overtaking men on road bikes!

    I was overtaken by another e-bike this evening. Some hybrid/mtb type, possibly a kit or derestricted as he must have been doing 20+ mph. Admittedly I was slowing down to turn left when he went wizzing past but I am sure he put it in turbo when he saw me up ahead.

    Planetary gear removal

    Those are not my rusty internals thank you but the OP's . Looks like I'm going to have to do something about that before mine go the same way. Someone at the factory not following or understanding instructions?

    Planetary gear removal

    This is how mine came installed. Should the cable groove be at the bottom for water egress?

    Planetary gear removal

    I have one these bikes (non-suspension fork/rack mounted battery version and not the one with suspension fork/seatpost battery) so may encounter the same issue down the road (pun intended). The only marking on my motor is 'DC36V700C250W19F0620 H' is this the same as yours? One of the comments...

    2. How do I get the walking throttle to work? I have the same LED display on a different model of bike and walk assist works by holding down the minus key for a 3-4 seconds.

    Suspension seat post advice wanted

    I think stocking them was against his religion! Doesn't seem to have impacted his business. Seems to do OK as he has taken over an old scandinavian supermarket and seems to sell a lot of high end Haibike & Lapierre. His attitude did make me want to shop elsewhere.

    Suspension seat post advice wanted

    I have a Tmars (bought two weeks ago) and it is less a suspension post and more of a shock damper (has two peices of hard rubber instead of springs in mine and is very firm). Feels like a non-suspension post but takes the edge off the bigger jarring jolts I get when going down the local rough...

    Volt Axis front light not working

    Buy a cheap light from poundland for £2 including battery until Volt fix the issue when things are more normal? You won't risk invalidating your warranty by trying to fix the issue yourself.

    Ebike 700c throttle.

    From the recent Throttle thread in the general forum, vfr400 posted this: Is it possible to adapt the existing walk assist function to a throttle without changing controller/display? For referance, this is the page from the manual for the controller

    Ebike 700c throttle.

    If your bike has the rack mounted battery then I don't think so without changing the controller as there is no mention of hrottle on it or spare connectors.

    Second battery for Argos E-Plus Commute 700c 36V 250W 9.6Ah

    Well hopefully the one from e-bay shows up if not paypal will be getting an e-mail. Edit: The sellers business address is the office next door to that on the Yosepower website so I think it is legit.

    Second battery for Argos E-Plus Commute 700c 36V 250W 9.6Ah

    Just ordered a 10Ah one from Yosepower on E-bay for £160. Combination of it and the original should be sufficient for my needs. Many thanks for your comments.
