Or anyone's. But not sadly mine. That will have to await L1e-A stuff and probably insurance and all sorts for my foreign travels. Unless my knees improve, which they may.

Ha, I (jokingly) meant your bike! I had to pay through the nose to get a powerful motor which was rated 250w!

Haha you mean just to cover up where it says "800w"? I always thought the EN thingy was some other box ticking thing.

Two penn'orth 1) sending a bike around Europe doesn't cost that much I suspect -maybe as little as £30 each way -check (although insuring it during outward carriage may be another question -return insurance will be the responsibility of the retailer). 2) I don't believe any EU consumer facing...

That looks v good but tough, will it bend so as to fit nicely on a frame tube?

I think these sorts of things were popular, although not sure you can still get them.

Bet you they will if you ask.

I agree and would add that not having uk backup, or backup from your credit card provider, is another potential cost,possibly as much as 100% of the investment if things go wrong. I worked out that a BMSBattery 09-type bottle battery would cost actually more, bought from them if customs was...

Sorry to hear that. Have you tried one of the Selle seats with the cutout down the middle?

Baffled here too. You raise well the important point that if riders can't buy class B except at considerable extra cost because that's imposed on manufacturers, restricting market entry and competition,development and presence in the market, then in EU law jargon that surely undermines in...

Thank you. It looks like I'll have to buy the connectors and solder on some suitable wire. Do these look good enough? (assuming the pin size is correct, which I will further check).

Completely agree. Do you know on what date she spoke in the house? I'd like to look that up in Hansard.

I suffer from fibromyalgia, a nerve condition which amplifies pain, and find that the Selle Royal Respiro is the only seat which doesn't cause me pain. It comes in narrow, wide, upright, forward leaning and intermediate versions. I use the upright 'relaxed' version, however converted my bike to...

Do these 5.5mm things look ok? They share the same connector as my charger/battery but I don't know if they're 36v/48v 2amp capable. Some on eBay say 1 amp only. The ad says that the wire is '22AWG 80 degree 300V cable'. Thanks

I've had a look and the only legal requirements which people mention are a) that it's secure and b) that if the licence plate is obscured then you have a secondary licence plate tied to the bike. I honestly think you're absolutely fine. If your bike protrudes 3 or even 12 inches beyond each...

Oh gosh -sorry I thought you meant the latter when you described the former. I don't know if it's legal.

Yes it's legal!! You mission now is just not to hit things ;-)

I think the main thing which got me was the chart on life cycle and charge level on the Cycle Satiator page. Yes probably was influenced a lot by reading ES. But I appreciate what you're saying about it lasting ages anyway and the older tech. 500 cycles estimated for 42v charging is a lot - I...

Oh god. My battery order was 3 weeks ago and they said DHL was the only way. The problem with my playing funny games with them now about the new $15 they want is I really need the S12S for my forthcoming holiday. Otherwise I would just say to them "**** you, send it at the advertised price you...

When was that? I cancelled my battery order incidentally. Better to have UK support if things go wrong because I know so little about batteries.
