    iPhone app - Runkeeper

    I quite like this app. It's easy to use and fast. And it works not like the other ones that have failed on me. Nice to see that the electric keeps a steady pace where as I die and slow down at hills lol

    Which kit is...

    Very true in an ebike application you are really giving them an easy ride when it comes to discharge levels. Which your right it should see a better total amount of life cycles. A few RC batteries a while back on a forum were tested to distruction and pulled their rated amps up to 400 times...

    Which kit is...

    Indo enjoy the lipo rc batteries but time will tell if there useful after a years use. I can't see them last anywhere near as many life cycles as other ebike batteries. But the power is awesome. It's the charger prices that are shocking. But if you can live with it they give you alot of...

    New battery purchase questions...

    The discharge rate indicated that the batteries are rated 10amp continous with max discharge of 20amp. I'd imagine the smaller 5amp battery is already in a typical 250w setup is being pushed at 3c. So the battery will give more grunt and less voltage sag. (Depending on the cells you are...

    Either way some Lipo and I'm surte some other cell type are up to 5c charging. Now I know thats pretty hefty but even at a 2c charge rate if you have a powerful enough charger you could charge a battery in 30mins... Although you really would need a large power supply to hit that, say 36v...

    Sunstar Ibike S03

    There's alot of bikes out there where by you can add range with a second battery already pre made. But your right as an easy fix a second battery works wonders. I could probably cycle 50 mile myself as the stamina is actually good unassisted. I understand the appeal to have that range and re...

    No way, it won't cause a problem. I was forever after a bit more speed, not torque but that was because I could already pedal a good 20mph average. But the faster I went the more unrealised I enjoyed unassisted riding and the satisfaction I could vet out of riding somewhere on my own. Now...

    I think it looks awesome. I really really like the look of it! But I can imagine it comes with the hefty price tag!

    Low power, low central weight small battery. 1 to 1 assistance using a crank drive can be very rewarding and still offer a decent range. You'd probably need to be in average shape to get the best out of it's assitance but it would still be far easier than riding unassisted. I like the...

    Why do people think 25km/h speed limitation is safe?

    Most brakes are usually powerful enough on a bike to lock or at least throw the rider over the handle bars. Theres only so much force you can apply using the brakes anyway before other forces come into play. I always think you have to weigh up the advantages of each system before making a...

    Help with my pie...

    You can't really over tighten the free wheel cassettes even with very powerful legs and muscles. Mainly because they tighten onto the Screw on hub. The only thing I can think of is that the cassette does not quite fit into the gap and frame allowing it to free wheel. But as you've stated...

    Battery indicator

    Simple answer is yes. But you'd probably need to cut and splice the wires into a new unit.

    Why do people think 25km/h speed limitation is safe?

    I think cycling makes you a better driver. I've always said that about motorcycling. However cycling has taught me patience and using the brakes less and generally not being so much in a rush. I believe its made me a nicer kinder driver.

    Some people with the Aurora swap the seat over to a non-suspension seat and seat post which lowers the height so normal mere mortals can sit on it. Just to let you know.
