Flaming hell, get off yer high horse mate. I've been working full time and paying taxes since leaving school, nearly 3 decades, so don't start suggesting that I'm not an honest person. I was under the impression that imported goods already had taxes added from the originating country, then more...

Bafang BBS02 48v 500w kit with Paul's 50v 24.8Ah (29E) triangle frame pack, hopefully. Still need to do a lot of research, same as I did for the MAC build. Peeps might say, why a 24.8Ah pack, as the Bafang isn't that power hungry? My last pack was a Ping 15Ah and I ended up charging that twice...

Yeah Mike, I've used that site to calculate the worst cash scenario, but was more wondering if they still declare a much lower cost on the package, to save customers on import tax.. Nudge nudge wink wink ;) What I'm going for will conjour up fees of £200, and that really pisses me off. Happy to...

When I ordered a MAC kit form EM3EV a few years ago, I seem to remember they declared the quite expensive package at a lower cost. This saved me a boat load of import tax. Was wondering if anyone had bought from them recently, anything over the £400 mark, and what import fees you ended up...

Wonder if anyone on this forum has been hassling the poor guy? :D Love the bike though, oh no, nostalgia kicking in again... Must not buy... Must not buy.... Stop me pleeeeease.....

Oh wow, totally forgot about Chuckie Egg lol

Think yer right flecc. There's been a few times when I've been poised over the purchase button on SportsHQ website, to buy their black version. Nostalgia says yes, but common sense says no. Like the time I bought an old Sinclair Spectrum, just to play Manic Miner, Jet Set Willy and Jetpac. Well...

There appears to be an awful lot of Cyclamatic bikes being sold on eBay at the moment, just at the height of some lovely British Summer weather. Wonder why, as they are a good looking, reliable bike, for what I call picnic rides. Cyclamatic Bikes being sold on by cruel, heartless owners As my...

Excellent d8veh, sweet pricing too. Now who's gonna buy one of their batteries for some torture and quality tests? ;) I really like the design and style of these new type packs. Do you reckon the Panasonic pack actually contains genuine Panasonic batteries, as I know bmsbattery can be a bit...

Someone over at ES, did liken the motor unit to the Sanyo/Rabbit Tool geared hub motor. Endless Sphere thread on Sanyo/Rabbit Tool hub motor Very interesting inner workings if it is the same unit.

The motor unit looks particularly interesting. If you zoom in on that third picture, you can see more clearly. The nearside cover with the power lead, appears to stay static, while the wheel part moves independently from that. I'm wondering if the motor is attached to the static assembly and...

I totally agree, I had a pair of your original torque arms, which were a bit thinner I believe. Very well built and robust. I noticed you have sold quite a few of the new ones, so was just wondering if anyone on the forum had fitted them to a bike yet ;)

Spotted this slightly unusual Raleigh electric bike on Fleabay, but couldn't seem to dig up much info about it. Anyone know anything about this bike, or actually ridden one? The motor in particular looks old school. Raleigh Select Five Electric Bicycle

Anyone tried these yet? Opinions?

Your avatar makes me happy ;)

Still seeing loads of purply, baldy headed man avatars. Come on peeps, let's be seeing those pretty pictures :D

Come on guys and gals, let's brighten up the forum a little, by using the avatar feature which shows a little piccy of your choosing in your posts. Mine's pretty boring, just an old bike of mine, but you can show your lovely face if you so desire. Strictly no nudity though :eek: Hover over...

Have seen the odd post over the years, with reference to insuring electric bikes. I don't know if this company is new on the scene, but they seem to offer quite a comprehensive cover, including our all important electric bikes. I don't personally use this company, so can't vouch for them, but...

Chill out flecc, we're only having a larf :D You know when you've been Mango'd :eek:

OMG, it's still there lol. Not so hideous electric bike, as not to offend anyone :) If he relists, my good deed for the day will be to PM him a few pointers for his description. I gotta help this dude flog this beast and have a couple of beers. :D:D:D:D:D
