I have a 4A charger with fan, that came with my Ezee kit, takes 2 hours doesn't get warm at all. 2A fanless charger that came with Panda kit takes 4 hours and gets very hot. Hot enough for me to have put it on an offcut of flashing lead, 'cos it worries me. Surely the one generating all the...

Hi from Ceredigion. 64 and been e biking (leisure/utility) for about 3 years now. Hills don't faze me any more and looking for a bigger battery ! It'll probably surprise you how far you want to go. Enjoy, oh and wipe that silly grin of your face :D

I'm a grammar school boy, had to play rugby and hated it, but that's cos I was only 5 foot and got hammered. However I love the game and its intricacies. I'm with Martin Johnson who,whilst being interviewed, referred to football as, The andrex league'. When asked what he meant he said,' 'Cos...

Yeh, I guess buying a battery is a bit like getting a dog - it's for life.!

Just over a year ago I had Jimmy make me a battery from these cells. He rated it at 15Ah. It hasn't been used as much as originally envisaged and I've recorded only 21 charges in that time - all partials. The battery gets used either on a Panda eco conversion or my Ezee conversion. Both bikes...

Might be worth giving these guys a shout, they say they can make triangle bags to allow for rear suspension alpkit.com/products/stingray

Nice job Trevor. Low slung battery looks to be a good idea balace wise. Might suggest a mud flap on the front mudguard to protect the battery from spray. Are things so bad in Bristol these days that you have to lock your sandwiches away?o_O

My guess is that a re-cell of your existing battery case will cost you way less than £400. Contact these guys: https://www.bga-reworking.co.uk/ You need to speak to Jimmy. My understanding is that they will arrange pick up of your battery then deliver when complete, saving you the pia of...

These guys might be worth a look: https://www.cyclemart.co.uk/ They have a lot of radical mtb's that wouldn't suit, but also some step throughs. The staff have always been helpful and informative to me.

Y Fenni - the cheese or the place?:rolleyes: Get a hub motor with pas, great if the knees get painful 'cos you can just gently rotate the pedals and get home on the motor.

Hi Steve, Prices can seem shocking when you first start looking. Have a good firkle about and get used to the market, start to zone in on what type of bike you'll want. I spent about £800 converting my bike, best 5000 miles I've ever spent ! If it sits in the shed all but 3 or 4 weekends a...

And don't even mention broadband speed !

What's public transport?

In the 90's I was installing stairlifts for a living. One morning I was heading (slowly) up the M42 to Nottingham when I saw a van for a rival company heading (slowly) for Birmingham. I had an epiphany - saw the absolute craziness of it all - I quit, became self employed and moved to Wales...

Got an Ezee geared hub with about 5000 miles of hilly west Wales riding on it. Gearbox no problem. Did have a problem with a duff bearing, but that can happen to the best.

Ahh the addictive personality, you poor sap !:eek::D I too got hooked after buying the misses a Giant so she could, 'Keep up with me on rides'. Soon found out that I was getting left red faced in her dust. So I bought an Ezee kit and put on her old hybrid for me to use. Wow! Now she...

All the sports cyclists I see are doing way more than 20mph, head down and tunnel visioned. Perhaps the cut off limit could be raised to this but with a requirement for disc brakes as mandatory. As D8 said, cycle paths are a problem, but then this is a personal responsibility issue. Again many...

I put my Panda controller in one of these and bolted it to the front of the luggage rack (they come in various sizes). http://cpc.farnell.com/camdenboss/bim2005-15-blk-blk/abs-box-with-lid-black-150x80x50mm/dp/EN55082 I bought the cables out through these, you drill the box yourself...

Hi Anna, I've got an Ezee conversion and I've found it to be pretty bullet proof. There isn't really anything in the motor that needs servicing. So, unless it's making any 'orrible noises, you can just keep on using it. Brakes and gears on the bike are standard stuff, so any bike shop should...
