I wouldn't use the reflective strips as an indication of any abnormalities in the tyre. They are there solely for you to be seen more clearly and probably aren't attached to the tyre in an accurate way. They don't need to be!! I run Schwalbe Marathon Plus tyres on both wheels and the...

I'm soon going to take the plunge of ordering all the stuff for my summer build. BMSBATTERY will be the supplier of a front drive 350w Bafang BPM, and also an ECITYPOWER 48v15Ah lithium ion battery from the following series: E-Bike-Pack05: 1. Battery voltage: 24V, 36V, 48V; 2. Battery capacity...

I do believe that they will be more prone to punctures at a lower pressure. I always keep mine at 70psi, and yes it is a pain in the bum to inflate them on a regular basis to maintain this, but well worth it for the puncture free trips. I find that there's not a lot of difference in ride...

Can anyone tell me by looking at the wiring, if this 48v throttle might be suitable to use on an electric bike. It is intented for a scooter, but i'm not sure if electric bikes and scooters work in a similar fashion. It's difficult to tell the colours ( probably my PC :( ), but they look like...

I have to agree with Old Timer on doing the trip by road. You won't arrive at work in a good frame of mind after travelling along a canal path at night. I ride along this type of terrain 2-3 times a week in the good weather during the day for fun, and i seriously wouldn't want to be doing a...

Ok, so let me get this clear. The washers with the little tab that sits in the fork/frame should stop the axle from spinning??? And the reason why a torque arm is used on alloy forks is to strengthen them??? So a proper heavy duty set of front forks could get away with the tabbed washer...

Hub motors and torque arms I know that a torque arm is highly recommended when fitting a powerful front wheel hub to a bike, but does a powerful rear wheel hub require something similar to stop the axle from spinning?

Come on Cyclamatic Plus lovers, i know yer out there... don't be shy :rolleyes: Let's make this the bike of the year :D

It's ok, you can borrow my Cyclamatic when your Flyer breaks down ;)

Nope, i voted for it in the bike of the year polls, which according to tillson makes it front runner for winning so far :)

Guess what :D

Cyclamatic Power Plus. No more reliable or less reliable than most of the electric bikes people own. Cut's the mustard across the rough stuff and believe me i've tried all sorts of terrain. Works very well in torrential rain. Great price and parts can be upgraded / replaced for reasonable cost...

Wow, that makes the Power Plus only £340 :) Roll up... Roll up... Get em while they're hot :D

Thank you mutmost :) I didn't think Ping would reply so fast, but he has triumphed again :D His reply was: The fully charged voltage fresh off the charger is around 45v. But after a while of the charger is disconnected, the voltage will drop to around 42-43v. The nominal voltage...

I've e-mailed Ping, but maybe someone here already knows the answers. What's the fully charged fresh off the charger voltage of his 36v 10Ah battery? Also what's the nominal no load voltage once it has stabilized?

What's the betting that no matter how well you try and comply with their returns policy, you wont qualify :D

That's where people make the mistake of thinking that a small amount of information can't be used to commit identity fraud and swipe money from bank accounts etc.. etc.. Giving away some personal information to members of a playgroup is hardly everyone and unlikely to be full of Ronnie Biggs...

I can't stress enough that if you want to protect yourself from internet fraudsters, then users of this forum must stop giving away personal details in their posts. This is an open forum and can can read by just about anyone with access to the internet. Phone numbers, addresses, full names...

snipenose, in the interests of your own personal security in these times of fraudulent activity, you should edit your phone number out and PM the details to WALKERMAN This is an open forum, so the whole world can read posts ;)

Has anyone had any experience using these type of tyres in the recent bad weather?
