Well, I dunno. I read it and it doesn't mention kits or, as far as I can see, any need for testing. I got a certificate showing compliance with EN 15194 with my kit. But that's for EMC compliance. I'm sure that if ya dig far enough there'll be a regulation making breathing illegal:mad:

Yeh, but I got teeny tiny feet, my growth energy went elsewhere.:rolleyes::p

That's a new one on me. Where's that from? Got a link, what does it say? My take is that we're talking pedal cycle here, so not a motor vehicle and the 250w continuous power limit and speed limit, by definition, keep it so. To the OP. You don't necessarily need an lcd screen. The less tech...

Also ride a hub conversion. Wouldn't want a mid drive. Greater fault liability, crunchy gear changes and drive train wear. Also it seems that most manufacturer mid drives come with a tie in to only their parts and service. Rip off.

Jeez, get rid of the pins. I use these, no pins and I get seen...

A throttle that will operate without the need to rotate the pedals (called a twist and go) is illegal. It doesn't matter that you would probably be peddling. In order for the control system to sense the pedals turning you need the pas disc and sensor. This way the throttle will only operate...

+1 for the Lidl trekking saddle. At the price it was worth a shout, it's now done about 2000 miles. Flirted with buying a Brookes, but my tight fisted side wouldn.t let me press the buy button.

I use a Lidl version that is sans alarm. Use it as a cafe lock. Very practically it sits in a frame on bottle mounts, so it's always there. Seems to be good solid stuff, reassuringly heavy, links open out long enough to go round lampposts etc, unlike any D lock I've tried. Metal is plastic...

It just goes to show that all the certificates of competency, and inspections of such, in the world will never stop a dipstick being a dipstick. 'Cos it's a state of mind and heart. A solo man working without even traffic lights or lookouts on an obviously busy road? Oh but he had the keep...

:rolleyes:

My experience of Chinese stuff is OK. My conversion is with an Ezee kit and, so far , has around 7000 bullet proof miles on it. My wife has the Woosh Big Bear, less mileage but also faultless. All parts available for self servicing. There have been bearing problems reported with thw Bosch...

Gosh, ya don't think Bosch are doin' the same sorta thing, do ya?:rolleyes:

Yeh. I have the same problem with horse, cow and sheep owners around here !:eek::p

It's only a 2mm difference isn't it? I think. Should be fine.

Some years ago I was driving the A45 into Birmingham (fast dual carriageway). Approaching the Stonebridge roundabout a small van came past me at speed. Next thing I remember seeing is a sports cyclist looping through the air at about 10ft. I came to the roundabout entrnce and saw the guy...

'Insufficient evidence' ? Wonder what the outcome would have been if she'd pepper sprayed the towrag? I increasingly wonder what it is I pay taxes for.

Now I wasn't going to mention that she had georgous smile. Are we allowed to say these things these days? I get confused!

I agree. My days of cycling with my spine parallel to the road are over. Even as a kid I couldn't keep up with my mates so my pedelec is a total freedom to me.

You can replace individual rings, the mountings are standard. I find a 48tooth large ring is about right for me.
