Personally I would bother if you have the time. I reuse them to power my front lights as long as they have at least 80% capacity left

Haha! I know what you mean but the pivot is very low to ground by rear stay and the angle of bike lean either way translates to very very little in the way of up/down movement on the sidecar platform. I can see if the pivot was higher up and I was executing motorbike levels of leaning this...

Hiya, it is a proper "on the move" pivot it means you can lean in turns :)

Great idea Nealh! I've managed to lose another one. This time from the new set. (Totally my fault this time as I was walking my bike home after Xmas party and didn't notice it get knocked off ) I do love them but I think personally I'm too clumsy , unobservant for the mag versions I'd buy the...

So the mechanics are Set up. Pivot working well , tracking is adjusted in.(that took a while!) The car is a little lower on bike side but this a result of the mount config on my hybrid. It needs a little playing with and an extra stay ideally Most importantly it is very solidly built and the...

No extra wires I've been through to the controller, the picture shows the green badly that's all. Those weedy wires are the power. They exit the controller thick red/black but are reduced to weedy ones of red and white after about six inches. I will upgrade The controller actually states 5a...

Thanks for looking at this To deal with each in turn then d8veh Open controller , will do though it looked potted inside the case. It's only 12a. Like this taken yesterday The throttle has led and a switch. Led marked full , half and empty The "Thing" is so close to the throttle that I've...

I'll put up on es as well then ! Cheers

Happy New year folks So I have a bought a used kit and am a little flummoxed by the wiring. And help gratefully received. I have various 36v batteries I can use to test. I'd like to do so in throttle only but the throttle is broken. I do have spares - all 36v But this wiring is new to me...

Agreed , that would be my preferred option but I have nowhere to store one (even if money was available) Still in terms of saftey I'm not overly concerned. In the very small amounts of residential road between me and the beach front,segregated cycle paths the side car keeps the kids away next...

This may well be the way to go Sorry for the suspense ! Unintentional!

Flecc, that first one is where canoe idea came from Usually loads on local free cycle.

Pure guesswork but might Jimmy at insat have one or two in stock to get you out of a bind? Depends how many you need Very troublesome these holders seem to be. Anecdotally more mechanical problems than any other style-certainly on this forum Worth a call to jimmy maybe ?

The intention is to transport my youngest twins boys Something like this http://www.scandinaviansidebike.com/sidecar.html I appreciate a trailer is better for handling but not for looks or passenger experience Plus this is for summer time family beach front pootling . Not for serious...

I'll so I bought a decently built pivot sidecar . Here https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/131994985250 Just need to build a suitable carriage Maybe using a barrel or a knackered canoe as a base...

Just for completnss we have successfully communicated off forum!

I've really been reminded of the power of the cold recently My batteries tend to take 2 miles to a warm up in this weather. And they are kept indoors And pump those tires !

I can only say I have had great service from Ollie
