Anon4 I’d be glad to hear your “Better Way” if someone is about to steal my bike I’d like to know about it in advance, and that’s what a theft alarm is all about. Its unfortunate that bikes - any of them, are so light that they could be put in a van and driven away in seconds - which doesn’t...

Here’s an alarm thats available in UK...

Too Rolling Right, ELECTRIC!

Oh Heck!

Interesting, Thanks Neil, mine bought on e- bay today so will arrive in couple of days, will see how its fixed. I will not be going that far on the bike at 81 but nice to be able to see the distance travelled etc. Its a long time since I cycled anywhere - 40 years ago I cycled to work, then...

So perhaps I should continue looking for a Quartz LCD Bike that might make pedalling easier? People don’t part with their Quartz very often. I only determined my bike is regen by its type of h/ bar controller, (small black oval box having 4 red leds and a blue ON/OFF button) is there a more...

Pardon my ignorance but what’s the difference between regen and direct (geared) drive? I know what regen means but.........drive is drive-isnt it?

Its really a load of bosh, better to get back to bicycles!

Thanks for the suggestions chaps, I’ve just bought a Catseye Velo Cycle ‘puter which should do nicely - so long as it doesn’t get nicked. PS Rather good site this!

Thanks chaps, I’ve spoken with BB and have been told that because of the bike’s age & it being obsolete they are unable to supply parts, that’s really a shame because the product is of exceptional quality.

My bike’s year is 2011 and model is Quartz Regenerative.... if as you say the LCD units are matched - then its prob the reason I cant find one.

Having just bought a BB Quartz I would like to fit an LCD unit able to show mileage covered, trip time, etc. I’d be grateful for any leads on such devices as I’ve not located on e- bay or other places. The bike is 36v if that helps.

Thank you Nealh.

Hi, I have a beautiful (like new) 2016 Batribike Quartz, one previous owner that has a 36v 10ah rear carrier mounted battery with rear wheel drive, I wish to obtain a replacement battery for it or the appropriate cells to suit, I would be grateful if a knowledgeable person could steer me in the...

I’m trying to get an LCD unit complete with all wiring as was fitted to some of the later Quartz models so far without success as Bateribike tell me that they are unable to source the manufacturer as Fallowfield have gone out of business and been bought out in name by a newer company. So now I...

Today my ‘new-to-me’ Quartz arrived, originally sold in 2011 it has a button on/off switch and a live twist grip which worries me.....I also have a Powrbike that Sensibly has a key switch to isolate the battery, question is has anybody got a Quartz having a key switch? If so where’s it fitted? I...

Something wrong somewhere, all I’ve read of Quartz bikes says they were 36v not 24 - especially the Quartz LCD, mine arrives on Monday and I can’t wait, I’m told by its previous owner that it is running fine with only a few hours use from its 2011 battery but if it later fails then I’ll find a...

Hi folks, my first contribution on this site....Back in 2006 there werent many choices of electric bikes and I bought two Powrbykes - all chinese with spokes laced cockeyed, soon found that dear wifey found hers too high - even at lowest saddle height so both she and I did not use the bikes...
