    electric moped fault

    billyboya, I wouldn't be opening your battery unless you know exactly what you are doing. Wouldn't want you to get hurt if you shorted it out or some other problem to add to your woes. As Nealh says, try and work things out with the seller either a refund or similar. I've got to say I admire...

    New Wisper Tailwind coming soon.

    Yes, I can understand it's not a straightforward decision, it's no doubt a niche market, and could there be more potential warranty claims if a carbon framed hub motor is more fragile than the equivalent alloy framed bike? Would be a cool addition to the lineup, some kudos for covering all...

    Front suspension - does it affect range ?

    Thanks all. I'm planning on taking a spare battery, so it makes sense having the suspension active if it has little effect on range Cheers

    Can anyone compare these two bikes.

    If it was me I'd go with the Moscow, bigger battery (and reasonably priced replacements/spares on Aliexpress available), more torque The only slight doubt I'd have is the level of support from Leon Cycles in the event of a warranty claim, do your research beforehand

    Front suspension - does it affect range ?

    Hello all I was out on a ride today, contemplating a Belgium e-bike tour in the summer, and thinking about range. I normally ride my bikes with the front suspension locked out (rigid) on the road and unlock on bumpy roads or gravel/tracks etc as and when needed. That got me thinking, as longer...

    36 PSI is the maximum, so no I wouldn't put that much in, in the same way my road bike tyres say max psi 120 on the side of the tyre, but I only put in max 100 psi. Go with what they recommend on the erider forum, linked above

    broken cable help

    little tip to avoid the tyre pinching the new tube, add a little air to the tube, just enough for it to take shape when levering tyre back on. Also push the tyre sides in before you inflate the tyre, to check that the tube is not trapped between the side on the tyre and rim

    is the hole on the side of the tube? if no damage to tyre it could be a pinch flat, where the tube has been trapped between the edge of the rim and the tyre..have you previously removed the tube or the tyre?
