Eddieo - it was in the article itself but try this Atomic22 - The ultimate bicycle security solution cheers

If you can find some of the odder ones on here in the right size I think a fairly good deterent could be easily put together. I'll try later when I have some time Either the spline or the japanese line types would be good for the job I think

fair an ough on battery - i though the panasocic cells in mine were the same discharge rate ? And I do have uk support (personally tested as well!) LCD discpaly and cycle comp with PAS is a very nice addition mind. Still not convinced that double the money is worth it here but hey, horses...

Very intersting - although at £47 for just a seatpost clamp its is mega expensive ! Securing whole bike would be a huge cost. Also no way of securing a hub motor wheel using this security A far cheaper solution would be to use torx head bolts in place of allen head bolts. Obvioulsy not as...

Thanks D8veh I considered this before plumping for the £425 8fun 9ah bottle battery kit (would have been cheaper but I wanted UK guarntee) Having read your post I'm fairly convinced this was the right choice. The extra 400 quid seems to get you a better paint job and a reduced rolling...

Also be good to know how technically an electrically handy you are ? Kits are never as easily plug n play as the manufacture allude so ability with soldering iron, wattmeter and basic tools essential especially when ordering from china Also how wide are the forks on your bike - not just at...

We could do with some more info Nick What sort of range do you need ? Whats more important to you Price Weight Range Feel/balance of bike For example I originally wanted to make my conversion as stealthy as I could - low weight, low assist motor with no rolling resistance. Problem is...

Wow this is really interesting stuff. And sounds like a 36v battery would provide a fair bit of oomph Meaning most wbikers folk already have a 36v battery so if they wanted an off road , south/north downs eating beast of a hardtail it'll only cost 270 quid What a total bargain !

Hi all Mirrors have been discussed much on these boards but the answer - a mirrcycle doesn't work for me Reason - doesn't work well on swept back dutch style bars as the mirror ends up under you forearm/armpit ! I've used a cycle aware view point (inside glasses) for some time but my eyes are...

Polaris jumps into the electric bike market - Images Not sure about styling of the hardtail and I appreciate these are 450w so for the US market Still, I was intruiged by the DuoDrive crank drive and its ability to switch between highspeed and high torque. I'm no engineer but this seemed...

for tuppence I think their service is very good. Paul Cao responded to all my emails very promptly and sent me replcement parts very fast. He also agreed to send 2 parts knowing only one was faulty but not which it was. This was done at not cost as I'm under warranty. He left me to send the part...

1800 USD ?! Crikey thats alot of money considering you dont get any gears, brakes or handlebars. So you cant move unpowered - not good in an emergency 1000w motor and a a 2.5ah battery gets you 10miles. Hmm, have serious doubts there and at 12.5kg it weighs as much as a Jerry Simon...

I like the mental image of d8veh pulling tyres off with his "bear hands" :) !

Moped for cost and reliability, ebike for pleasure. Having said that I still chose an ebike for my commute as other factors may come into your decsion. My commute is way shorter with an ebike as I can go across parks and other legal (for a bicycle)shortcuts - not stuck to just being on the...

As ever d8veh brilliant info, thanks very much

Now I'm confused as mine is the same battery(or is labelled and advertised as such anyway)

Hi there, neat job on the bike Looks same kit I have (8fun/bafang) How come two batteries in one year ? Sounds expensive !

Ahh thanks, the penny drops ! Well it was a cheap kit so what can you expect Sounds like a shunt mod would be really bad idea ! Btw controller is 14amp ( or so says the label)

I emailed for a price on that battey d8veh, thanks Let's see - guess this is the same one cyclezee will be using

Fair enough - thanks Still don't understand the electriconics/physics behind this Or why a 11ah battery will help. Thought this just gives more range which is not really the issue
