brooksey when i rode my sakura i moaned it had only one gear, bought a 6 speed bike and after a few rides realised one gear was not a problem to me, so long as that gear was the right one for me, the powabyke is in 6th gear and it stays there (occasional change to keep things working) it...

maybe aprilia the 1st:rolleyes: mike

brooksey . i seem to think it was the left pedal on ours, because of the direction of the thread it wants to undo the nut as you pedal i guess it probably is outdated now but like you with your first one we liked ours, and i have had to keep mine in case my wife's breaks down, to use for...

well its going to have to be back to the shop, its just so unlikely that one would suffer motor damage, and the replacement be faulty.the pedal may just need tightening both mine and my wife's needed tightening once during ownership. i should just add the shop where we purchased ours from...

brooksey is it totally free and silent to push forward, mike

brooksey does it wheel smoothly and quietly forwards,is there just very slight resistance when wheeled backwards,the back brake is inside the back hub and needs precise setting. mike

Ian this is the point i was making but i thought i had seen a bike advertised that had a gear leaver type control which stayed where you put it,this would not be within the current law surely,or if you made an adjustment that stopped the throttle returning automatically. mike

on the subject of throttle control i found this statement is this a throttle by definition, and would it make power increase by notching up a switch or tightening a throttle illegal. the quote came from this page mike

russ may be all right now but i cant see an electric bike working as a pope-mobile and lets face it that's what he wants.:rolleyes: if that's all they needed for a going away present i would have given it years ago:rolleyes: its a good job we avoid politics and religion:rolleyes...

brake judder the thoughts of an ignoramus my powabyke had brake judder when i first got it, i retuned it to the dealer he fitted better quality blocks and adjusted the toe in, the break judder vanished but it returned after 40/50miles, so i decided the best way to deal with it was to avoid...
