    No need. The issue is arguments where no one listens and both sides are point scoring. That needs to stop. Banter is different as is connect the red wire to positive of the meter stuff.

    With battery whoosh want £600 That's a good price to include everything and a warranty. My kit cost £330 plus £150 for battery and charger But self fitted. It's not too difficult if you have basic mechanical skills. Taking the bottom bracket off is the hardest part. Then it's just slot in the...

    Electric assist can be a reasonable adjustment to enable a disabled person to join in and feel part of the cycling community. Excluding them is potentially discriminatory. ( only potentially) That is something for a court to decide if they have failed in there duty to undertake a impact...

    Freego Raptor now £449

    It's cheap and Ltd power. I bet it's still far better Than the Salisbury. It could be a nice ride and the 11 ah battery pack could make it a good runner. Even though it's 24volt.

    Modest is what? 25 miles low assist Any 10ah battery should give you 25 easy miles. If you wanted super speed in soft sand you would need more power. It's all about how much power you can give and how fast you want.

    Another UK source for the Bafang BBS01/02 mid drive kits

    Well I suppose I might have to pay. I think it's time to set a few parameters. 1 low power, and low speed for manouvering. 2 low power full speed economy running 15ah max 3 full power and speed for bad health days. 18ah . Set voltages for my lipo.

    I think the fat tyres are for gravel or sand. To run over the surface not dig in. The soft sand was a minor issue last time I was about the new forest.

    Hi Good to know you want out and about. This site http://www.atomiczombie.com/ is full of home build info. Perhaps a wooden frame? It's flexible. With a rear wheel drive either crank or hub drive will do. Perhaps a velomobile chassy?
