Without disagreeing with anything you've said, I would just add the payer is not in any way confined to PayPal's resolution system for remedies.

First of all you have an arguable claim for a free replacement, part-refund, or repair of the battery concerned (at the discretion of the retailer), as your contract with the retailer was formed chiefly by the English and EU law requirement that consumer goods be reasonably durable, commensurate...

Shout out for the Cheshunt branch of Stanley Bridge Cycles who are building me a wheel from scratch for £23-£28 max, I just provide the hub-motor and rim, they measure up and source the spokes for £12 if I wish. Result.

I thought about this too and wondered whether one of those 60cm x 0.6cm lightweight poundland cable locks threaded through the parallelogram once and through the frame might deter a casual opportunist (and could be threaded through the underneath-bars of a good saddle too) (?)

Ow. Been there. Currently using the 2014 version of this saddle, which helped http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B00NZ58GKS/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?qid=1427044304&sr=8-3&pi=AC_SX200_QL40&keywords=Respiro+relaxed&dpPl=1&dpID=31ENYa5qkZL&ref=plSrch which is about £30 (it's for a Dutch style posture, they do a...

I'm afraid the answer is very boring. It's coded communication activating sleeper agents. I would have thought that was obvious. I hope this helps.

Thank you everyone for your views on the battery's safety, I'm very grateful - I feel much better about this now.

Thank you all of you for replying. What ought I do to investigate? The battery pack has a big label seal on it. I opened it as far as I could without breaking that seal (just the other side), and the batteries are wrapped in a tough blue shrinkwrap. There are two sorts of smells. The smell...

Although a wheel build, new rim and spokes will raise it another £50-60+

Since my 15ah 36v Samsung lithium battery pack arrived, my flat smells. It's an unpleasant chemical smell. Clearly my bike-building hobby has turned my home into a heated chemical storage shed. Is it safe to keep these things in a sealed plastic bag? The pack contains Samsung ICR18650 29E...

Very classy

Just a quick note here that PayPal only protects for 180 days (+buyer may be required to pay return postage even in cases where wrong or faulty goods sent), whereas credit card provides up to 6 years' protection (s 75 CCA 1975 in conjunction with the Sale of Goods Act 1979) for goods over £100.

Hand-wringing apologist for what? And what do you mean by liberalism?

Does anyone know which way round the charger plugs into the EU/UK adapter, please? It seems capable of going in both ways. Also whether a red light means charging and green light means charged. Thanks.

It does look great, aesthetically and just the idea of it, but I'd worry about the motor barbecuing the battery which encircles it. The inner motor itself looks very small, I'd worry that it wouldn't really do the job. And 6ah really means 5 or 4ah given that total discharge is a nono on...

I enjoyed reading that, it was well-written. Mixed up your and you're in the last sentence but it's not a hangable offence.

I think ebikes in London would do more for ebiking in Britain than anything I can think of - anyone popping into the capital can see how lovely a pedelec is to ride, just for a couple of quid.

How did we get onto international Roma gangster networks? I also think this thread should have gone in the 'racism' section. But yeah they are charging way over the odds for their BBS01 kits.

That sounds a good idea. That sounds your safest bet. Good point - I was confused. I meant the manufacturer which made a promise (a 'manufacturer's warranty') that the product would be good for a short period e.g. 1 year. I thought it was Bosch but I realise Bosch don't make whole eBikes...

Hi Arne, If the rights you have are the same or greater than those in the EU, then, if Bosch wrongly refuse to honour their warranty, then you can challenge Bosch at your local small claims court, for a small fee. Bosch's warranty agreement with you is a contract made on Norweigan soil, which...
