If the 'powers that be' wanted to see electric vehicles at the fore of the publics consciousness, i'm pretty sure they could make it so. 'They' would simply have to insist on our dramas including some reference to electric transport. This would be one of those subtle top down directive which...

I wonder if he was braking any speed restrictions?

I seem to have a problem with spokes working themselves loose. Its the first time i've encountered anything like this. Is there a standard fix, eg nut sealing gel applied to the thread of the spokes, or would this be down to the way the wheel is balanced?

NEC has been focusing on improving electric vehicle batteries recently and has now managed to increase the capacity of high voltage, long life manganese lithium-ion batteries by 30% using a new cathode and anode design. The Japanese company achieved this by partly replacing the lithium...

Just a quick word to say I bought this from the same source and i've had no problems with quality. No name on them so can't say who manufactures them.

Is there a way to tell for sure? And failing that, is there a way to prevent the controller going 'pop fizz'?

I would also recommend a dab of Nut sealant for the crank bolts, as these with lower gears installed, are under higher crank preasure than normal and can work themselves loose. Metal Thread Nut Locker Universal Sealant Lock Screws Stud Nuts & Bolts | eBay 2 Crank bolts allen key bike bottom...

I've got the same issue... battery good for approximately 15 miles on the flat with some gentle hills, mainly throttle. see http://www.pedelecs.co.uk/forum/electric-bicycles/12393-battery-charger.html I'm beginning to think this might be down to the charger, as so many with the same apparent...

My old salisbury is also kaput, I would like to get it going so i can sell it on [for parts only]. Could you go into more details about your fix?

Thanks for the advice. the battery has been as close to zero as its allowed to go, and cut to save itself from damage. The lights on the meter were 4 before, and remained the same after. I might still give this a try, however i did come across the following: "What is conditioning a battery...

Something you wont be able to tell from the photos is that the frame isn't round as you'd imagine, but flattened. The cross tube, for example, has a triangular-ish profile, flat on top, flat on the sides, and very funky. Certainly not an anonymous bike ;)

I've got a bulb battery, 36v 9amp. When fully charged and still plugged into the charger, the 5 lights on the battery are all shown lit, however after the charger is unplugged, only 4 lights are lit. My question is this, is the battery fully charged? Should all 5 lights be lit? If the fault is...

I suppose one answer would be to have at least one event which featured a standardized bike. An event which made the field level for all, including the poorest nations. If i'm honest i am trying to explain to myself in a rational way the reason for our success at these and the previous...

Efficiency, that's what i was looking for. So if the technology existed, would it be allowed in competition? Are there already technologies in competition besides what we know of. Im thinking of the obvious advantages which came with the Boreman's carbon fibre monoframe and the way that was...

Its a shame that. They are making the connections between cycling and motor bikes, scooters, mopeds, when they could to better effect introduce this greener alternative to a lot of people who wont know it even exists. Too much like the future, i guess, for those with one foot in the past.

Is there such a thing as centrifugal gearing? I'm thinking of a system where the faster the rear wheel turns the lower the gear, all on automatic. Incidentally, are the gears fixed at these time trial events, and is there a reason in the rules to make this so? I can see why you wouldn't want...
