Aldo do the special shoes and there cheap. It makes a difference. I do do over 30mph and my feet don't slip.

It's the empty tube bit with nothing attached. The BBS replaces everything. If it was a mm or two out you could even file off a little. I had to remove a bit from inside the bracket as there was a lip fowling the BBS when I did mine. Just visible with the white grease

The standard questions are where, road off-road Wales or the fens,no sweat or you want to work, speed required or its just good getting there, are you a fit feisty 50kg or a failing fat 50+ year old? But a sub 20kph ave on the road is normaly easy without traffic. Go off road and some burn the...

One nice looking bike.

If you can afford it dump the powacycle and get a decent bike. Almost anything is a better ride. It's heavy badly geared and drains the little power in the battery just doing the most basic. ( my personal opinion from a short ownership of one)

Just for the record I had three Panasonic drive bikes. The Panasonic end of it was faultless. The 4*4 stopped me riding normal framed bikes. I would buy Panasonic again, even considering doing a complete build with Panasonic. It's way nicer to ride than my functional BBS01. I would not buy or...

There are a few other electric bike shops in Bristol. Visit them for some more test rides. What's the commute mine is from 8 miles to 50 depending on how lost I get. Sometimes visiting Yate, or even totworth if the weather is good.

I agree th BH brand has lovely looking built in batteries at a price

My (very) minor disagreement is don't throw the snap link away. It weighs nothing and fits into your traveling spares kit. You can fix yours or someone else's chain with it. I carry two each of 1,7/8,9,10 spd in my tailbox. But my chain is around 300 links

It's hard to be sure. Basically if the manufacturer says its 250watt legal, you as an uninformed customer have a defence( unless it obviously isn't) If it has an off road switch it is illegal. If it can be converted to higher speed but hasn't been its legal. If it has been updated its an...

Test ride as many bikes as possible. Even the worst bike I have ever ridden would do your 13 mile Daly run. The Chinese make all the common basic components so there is little difference in the sub £1k bikes, having a good local dealer would be an important point. Unless saving max is important...

The confusion is simple . It's a rating that the motor must be capable of running continuously at 250 watts minimum. So the manufactures rate a 500 watt capable motor as 250 watt and it's a legal motor. It just so happens that peak power can be much higher hence the legal motor is set with 15a...

Chemical metal

Come now oldgroaner. The next thing you will be suggesting that being a poodle Is not a full and fair partnership. Remember we gave the yanks all our info on nukes and helped them develop the system then they felt it wasn't right to give us the details back after it was done. After all we are...

Welcome to the dark side mmuuuhahahah

Range is not guaranteed by any seller. 60 miles is a long way if you youse the assist for lots of stops and hills. Do you already do 16 mph on the flat. If not you will be draining the battery all the time. If you do ride quickly then the drain will only be on starts and hills then you can get...

If you can do the mechanicals the bbs kit is just plug together like a new tv and video setup. It's really simple honest. The connectors are colour coded and different plugs.

The di 2 electric shifting gear hub is a top dollar item. This one might just have the expensive bits expected on a two grand+ bike.

It's a 24 volt system, motor. Type TBC.

Are you cycling when it flickers?
