I take it that your 's' has the 18a battery then ? I went out on the same 29 mile ride today as yesterday,from my home towards Clitheroe and then through Downham in Lancashire along the A59, depending on which way the wind is blowing i can get 8.4 or 10.9 miles to the first light going out. But...

so it was nothing to do with the hair then ? I do wear one,not having a lot of hair !!! just invested in a boardman one...very nice..its that light you can hardly tell,unlike the cheapo polystyrene covered one with hardly any vents that i used to have.

1. About 5 years ago 2. I saw a Powabyke somewhere. 3. After i saw the Powabyke i found their website on line. Due to the hills around here i decided i could do with a little help to ride a bit further. 4. I bought a Powabyke 6sp Euro which i still have and then a Kalkhoff Agattu 7sp which i...

Yes but he would have to go to the expense of changing the socks and t-shirt !!!:D

How about Clitheroe,Lancashire. Hills whichever way you go be it Pendle hill-you might see a few of its famous witches.....or through Waddington towards Dunsop bridge and the trough of bowland,both of these are regular routes for the Tour of Britain.

yes but given a dodgy knee and angina short term it may seem a good idea to blow the big budget,but these ebikes might not suit. A powabyke would meet the criteria and not be an expensive mistake 12 months down the line even if its a gift....just my opinion given the circumstances.If it was me i...

i would like to throw another bike in to the equation....the Powabyke Euro.. pros cheap reliable workhorse strong hub motor cheap batteries not an expensive mistake if an ebike proves to be short term cons heavy dated design ok please don't shout but its a great bike to get into...

now if they had quick charge points at service stations..and the batteries would quickcharge....mmmmmmmmmmmm one for the designers..... .merry xmas and a happy pedelec new year...:)

if you ride north with your 18a battery and ride south when i get mine....we should meet north of birmingham and it will be a long ride home.......

i think your Kalkhoff Sahel Pro S11 Electric Bike details are wrong as it quotes 37 miles,so it either should read more or the battery isn't 18a as quoted.

a large truck/bus would have blown it over !

and they still wore a helmet !

ok i will have an 18a one :)

Over what period of time would it to run to 1100 charges ? It could be 10,000 charges but if thats still over 2 years then there isn't much gain. Its the longitivity of the battery thats the crucial factor.

thanks, i will do that.....would be a pain to condition the 18a battery if that works in the same way.....

Range seems ok,its just a pain resetting,i thought maybe because i can't ride at regular intervals then maybe its was upsetting the measurement, suppose i better get some rides in before that warranty goes although i still have 12 months left ....This will probably be 4th reset in 12 months

On the 10 second test it quite fequently drops to 4 lights but after discharge reset is back at 5. What is the normal frequency by which the battery should drop to 4 ? and why ? It seems i can go for regular rides but then if i leave it a week or so then it drops to 4..

How would i know that my battery is less than 80% ? Would it only charge to 4 lights or would it charge to 5 but with reduced performance ?

if the claims of 500 re charges is way out then the batteries should be changed or a new one supplied at a heavily discounted price. I know exactly how many mine has done and i will be less than happy if it doesn't come close.

it will be interesting to see what difference there is between bike and trike ..if any...you could do with a garmin to record times etc to compare the two on the same route.
