    A letter to my MP concerning law changes..

    I was wondering about registration.. with such a wide variety of bikes on the market and people importing parts and making their own bikes, how do they plan to regulate the market and police the bikes on the road? Will they even bother to try? One way they could enforce the legal compliance...

    A letter to my MP concerning law changes..

    Why did they bother to hold a recent public consultation then I wonder if it's already been decided? Perhaps they were just going through the usual motion of saying they consulted the public before the EU law comes into full effect? If memory serves, it reads on the consultation results page as...

    I agree, I sent him a donation and asked him to consider some electric bike kit conversion videos. That site is really useful to someone like me who can't even use a spanner :D I think it's good to learn these skills though to be able to look after your bike properly.

    Ebike security locks

    Thanks Mussels, that's good to know..I was just about to do a post asking about this so you beat me to it! I will certainly look into getting mine changed as it's one less thing to worry about when leaving the bike unattended. I can't really see the point in quick release components at all on...

    A letter to my MP concerning law changes..

    I've seen others on the forum saying they are lobbying their MP's over changes due to put through parliament shortly effecting our electric bikes. So I decided to do the same and have just penned a letter to my MP which I've copied below... did I miss anything? Dear MP, I wanted to write to...

    Ebike security locks

    new bike owner I have just been reading this old thread with interest.. as a new bike owner one thing that bothers me is the quick release nature of components on my bike, i.e. the front-wheel and seat post. Since my bike has a rear hub motor which most likely would be targeted by any theif...

    New e-bike arrived

    Thanks Old Timer! I just found a picture of your Powertrek bike here it does look exactly the same frame design as mine. Maybe it's the same manufacturer. How long did your battery last and do you still run that Powertrek much?

    New e-bike arrived

    Hi tillson, these are fair comments.. I must admit I was quite reluctant about buying an unknown brand bike from an unknown dealer even at this price. However they are a proper established company that sells motorbikes with a showroom in my region of the country (they have their own delivery...

    New e-bike arrived

    Thanks for the info d8veh.. I think you're right about the high/low being pedal assist and throttle only modes. With the bike upturned you hardly need to push the pedals around and the motor gives plenty of assist. The seller is a firm in Lincs, they're English and specialise in quad bikes but...

    New e-bike arrived

    Hi everyone, I purchased a new e-bike this week from a seller on eBay called Road Legal Quad Bikes (158 Performance Ltd) and thought I would do a review.. I've been researching bikes for a month now and had narrowed down my choice to between a Wisper 905 Eco and an Ezee TorQ, purely based on...
