I think I'll always keep the Ezee sprint, its a great bike for the wife, alloy frame, smooth power, great hill climber and shimano nexus gears, was a great find in the loft of my LBS many years ago. The daughter's bike is definitely next on the hit list though!

Had to clear out the garage at the weekend so my drive was an e-bike parking lot! Daughters horrid lead acid thing at the front, then the almost newTonaro Compy (think I'm selling it), my wife's Ezee Sprint behind it and finally my Cyclotricity converted Carrera. Not shown is my E-scooter thats...

Batteries last about an hour or so! Recharges from USB.

Video here with some titling!

Joking aside camera wise I have one of these on my handlebars. Does the job. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Mini-Lithium-Battery-DV-DVR-Sports-Helmet-Bike-Motorbike-Camera-Video-Recorder-/111175819042?pt=UK_CamerasPhoto_DigitalCameras_DigitalCameras_JN&hash=item19e2985f22 but will probably upgrade to...

GeeBee you're right, there was loads of potential for Lipo, could have got maybe 6 5S packs in there. But he didn't want to change it and had a simple charging routine and was cheap to do.

Just replaced the three old batteries inside the case (3 times 12v to get 36v) with some new lead acid batteries I had. Pretty simple really.

Well I've ridden this actual bike and it's awesome, the power delivery is smooth and very well geared. It's heavier than most people will be used to but doesn't feel that way once you get going. Very solid and stable. I should have grabbed it when I had the chance!!

I have a metal bucket for charging suspect batteries in! Ceramic planter indeed, oooh get you ! :)

I got one good one out out my two momentum batteries, same sort of design. I charged to whole pack slowly going up the settings on my imax b6, 2s, 4s etc right up to 22v. then left it overnight, it was still somewhere near so charged each cell via the balance lead one by one. took ages but once...

Did you manage to sell it Neil?

Still worth looking at your mums bike, motors have got some poke! Built like tanks!

My local bike shop have no knowledge of ebikes and as I'm their only ebiker customer they pointed one of their repairs to me. It was an old PowaByke in bright red (the owner believed it may have been ex post office at some time) the batteries (SLA) were depleted, they'd charge up but under load...

Yay it was a fuse. I win!!!

Looks good, that roundabout is a nightmare on a bike so nice to avoid it, I usually use the crossings rather than cheat death!

Erm I've got one of those chainrings I think, to go with a nexus wheel I'm trying to fix!

They'll be looking out for someone with an umbrella attached to his bike! :p

I've currently got a Carrera Subway with a cyclotricity kit on it (work bike), wife's got an Ezee Sprint, daughters got some horrible SLA dutch ladies bike, I'm working on a Tonaro Compy (deciding wether to keep or sell) and also another kit bike (currently for sale on ebay and here). And...

With a bit of a rejig, wouldn't something like this do the job? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Everest-Electric-Bike-Lithium-Ion-Battery-24v-10ah-Almost-Unused-c100-Miles-/380862972567?pt=UK_Sporting_Goods_Scooters_LE&hash=item58ad33c297 Can't even find a picture online of this bike.
