"Good News Page" Gentlemen, There have in the past been numerous accusations that this site is dealer driven and members have been forced into the unwarranted and unenviable position of having to defend themselves. Traders have in the past entertained us with a ferocious diatribe of...

Flecc, A first class idea, altogether far better than a thread, and more than I had hoped for. Would you be willing to start the ball rolling, in ignorance I have no idea who to contact. Thank you Dave

flecc, I am not surprised by your later remarks, the friend that I mentioned earlier is the local cycle dealer and his comments were more forceful than yours. He maintains that many people do not really understand the usage of gears and so do not derive the true benefits from them and he too...

I was very disappointed when the sticky "Complaints" thread was removed, it allowed both sides to score points, feints, dodges and we had ringside seats. In its place might I suggest a sticky "Recommended Dealers" thread and I would like to start it off. Electric Cycles from the Electric...

flecc, At my point on the learning curve I am grateful for your assessment of the EE test methods, nothing like knowledge gained over time. And I am also happy to concede that the Panasonic is more likely to be standard. However we all know it's not just the equipment, it's the way that you...

Thank you flecc for that informative link. The unassisted automatic change gear points were checked out as first class by a cycling friend and I am more at home with them now. Considering the recent upsurge in sales of electric bikes do you think that the increasing numbers of new bikes...

Under Gazelle, A to B describe Electric Cycles from the Electric Cycle Company in Edinburgh, Scotland as "Always helpful and friendly. Lovely people". I went to try an Easy Glider, a magnificent machine with all the bells and whistles that one could desire. A gradient that often leaves me...

Jeremy, Thank you for the information. Could I prevail upon you to comment on the relative merits of the 24V 10Ah battery from Cyclone.tw? Without prejudice.:D About 4 years ago I had slowed down to such an extent that I could not balance my Peer Gynt long wheelbase recumbent while...

Jeremy, Would you care to comment on the construction? HOME > LIFEPO4 > LIFEPOWER4: (click here) bottom right photo. These cells appear to be of the 123 style of LIFE cell and as such their ebike pack prices are competitive. PRODUCTS > E-BIKES PACKS Anyone care to be a guinea-pig...

Greetings poppy, I too sympathise, but if your "strong medication" is 'hillbilly medication' no wonder you are feeling Better better....but "Ca canny" or use in moderation, we want you whole when you are better. When I am unable to cycle I use a mobility scooter (class 3 invalid carriage)...

Thank you for a very comprehensive 'First impressions' One comment that you make is of great interest to me := "even a lever to provide motorised assistance when walking the bike up a hill" From what you saw of this mechanism do you think that there is a possibility of adapting this...

An interesting discussion but given the relatively high currents involved, is it safe to reach conclusions while ignoring I squared R losses when comparing systems at different voltages? Dave

wgaBloke, Thank you for your information, I look foreword to hearing your comments, particularly on the performance with the 20Ah batteries. Gary, Thank you for your comprehensive reply and a most interesting video. I do admire your use of the smaller lead acid batteries, with your relatively...

Gary, Would you be willing to post or send to me more details of the kit you got, bike, gearing and performance. Perhaps an in depth review as this could be a most cost effective and potent conversion. Dave

I am very satisfied with the cranks I bought from Cyclone Taiwan and their price for the 180W and 250W kits is ~ US$ 390 including postage but plus whatever import costs to your country. As your ebay chap has 3 in stock that may influence you but the 12 month warranty is the manufacturer's and...

There is a great deal of useful information and a Free Plan for a trailer at Carry Freedom - Award winning UK bicycle trailer maker. A stainless steel rear spindle hitch is offered at £15. Their City trailer is the nearest thing to my own and shows real ingenuity - theirs that is, but it tows...

Thank you Killjoy, Just noticed that the Electric Cycle Company will be at Gardening Scotland this weekend at Stand 279. Dave

flecc, While I thank you for a succinct summation and although ignorance is no defence, I now rather wish that I remained silent. Being concerned at the attitude shown that divorced a cyclist from responsibility because they are insured, I had wished to sound a cautionary note. Conditions...
