    BMS fitting to Carrera Battery

    Oh forgot to mention I have tried to contact the manufacturer in Taiwan to see if original replacement BMS boards are available this is my second attempt but they are ignoring my attempts to contact them . These batteries are not glued closed like the current Carrera ones are .

    I know 100% that a lot not all of the delivery riders are working illegally whilst getting the benefits these migrants get , again the ones who can tell the most convincing lies to stay in the first place are also using food delivery as a cover for selling drugs I have personally seen this...

    Police Check

    I have heard this too , not really fair if some one does not have a licence . If the government wants more people to ditch cars then they need to find ways of keeping cyclists and EPACS Moving . That said I have had my fair share of Two wheel traffic jams in Saigon especially on a holiday...

    Police Check

    Well one way of looking at it is If a cyclist on a EPAC legal one is using walk assist only at 4MPH as this is governed by the use of Disability Scooters/chairs one could argue that in this case there is no difference between Two or Four Wheels. Ie a disabled person could still be on his or...

    Police Check

    Yes that makes sense a bit more clarity. I think the same when I see cyclists jumping red lights . Some times say at a cross roads with pedestrian crossing lights all vehicles are stoped and no body is crossing the road in this case I think a cyclist should be allowed to go through if safe to...

    It’s not a very sensible thing to do ride anything if one was legless. A few pints of low ABV Ale is ok I think

    Police Check

    If I am on what I think is a particularly dangerous road or traffic is blocking me and it’s safe to do so I will ride the pavement but only at around 4MPH taking care not to run into anyone . If that’s against the law I would rather get nicked than end up in hospital or worse .

    Police Check

    Would this then apply to so called cycle safety checks that are being carried out by The City of London Police . IE grounds to stop and in the process identify illegal e bikes . Does any authority have the legal power to stop and check a cyclist if they are not doing any thing to warrant being...

    Yose battery fitting

    Hi I looked at this when I had a spare Downtube ie putting it on the back rack in place of making a bracket to fit a YOSE / Halong onto a. Suntour Carrera setup . It really would have been a bodge job unless you made a custom battery holder but then the amount of work that would be required...
