    Conhismotor electric bike

    Flec, I purchased both bikes. I purchased initially an electric bike in the UK (from ebay the one with 36V) that was limited to 13 km/h. I was soooo frustated I returned the bike to the seller. (Most members here would know how to repair this bike, but I'm the average Joe that have never...

    Conhismotor electric bike

    Tillson, I'm responsible and only wish the e-bike to bit slightly faster (35km/h). I'm not asking for 50km/h or more. I understand the risk implied of high speed and do not wish to take risk. I strongly believe that 35km/h max speed wouldn't create any harm. And would that finally give a reason...

    Conhismotor electric bike

    Yes, it was this e-bike I purchased: eBay - The UK's Online Marketplace He is not an official e-bike seller though. ps: When I browse Endlessphere forum, I realize that speed limitation of 15mph is only relevant in this forum. In the other forum, they just say that bike limited to 15mph is for...

    Conhismotor electric bike

    Thanks for your comment Andy. I'm quite aware this is not the best bike... and it'll mainly be about compromises. I hope it's still going to be useful. Now you make me wonder about the rolling ability and how I'm going to carry it on the stairs when I'll be on the tube ;) But as a first real...

    Conhismotor electric bike

    Indalo, that's fine if you disagree with me. But just try to understand that some people just need a way to travel quickly in cities. If you think I don't need an electric bike, I believe you really don't understand what are my needs and neither understand the needs of true urban audience that...

    Conhismotor electric bike

    Tillson, I'm perfectly responsible and my main goal for this bike is to save myself from vehicle waiting for me to go faster. In London, there are not many cycle paths so most of the time I ride on conventional car road. There are many cyclists less discplined than me, they don't take...

    Conhismotor electric bike

    Actually, for my first electric bike, the speed was awful: 13km/h. I asked seller to do something or change it and he didn't want to do that. But I raised a claim via Paypal about the discrepancy between the bike description of 25km/h and the actual of 13km/h. Seller finally had to accept to...

    Conhismotor electric bike

    The seller keeps saying it can reach 40km/h even when I ask for confirmation. It's Conhismotor they are specialised in motor and their reputation is not that bad.. Hope I don't get con... :/

    Conhismotor electric bike

    I'm living in London, so my journeys are mainly flat. Also, according to the seller he was able to make the bike goes to 40km/h. Hope it's true.. But seriously, I would be so much more relieved when... 1. I won't have any more fear about the BIG BUS BEHIND behind me. This is still my worst...

    Conhismotor electric bike

    Guys, try to be more open minded. This bike should allow me to carry it in the train and bus. Real multi-modal travelling!

    Conhismotor electric bike

    I would rather say that actual e-bike business model is designed for people that help them up hills. And that's why this is the primary customers. If e-bike were ligther and faster, I'm sure another type of customer would use the bike. (The one that use folding bike/brompton) ps: for the...

    Conhismotor electric bike

    Sorry for the animosity. That's really not what I want to achieve. I've seen some bad and good reviews from users to Conhismotor. Globally positive though.. and few negative. And 97% satisfaction on 250 users is still good. Just hope I'm not wrong. Also, to clarify, while this is true I'm...

    Conhismotor electric bike

    Indalo, I do not purchase abroad because of the price advantage. Actually the bike is more expensive than if I purchase it in UK. I just don't see the point about having an electric bike limited to 25km/h. I'm perfectly healthy and I'm fine with peddling at 20-25km/h. What I need is a vehicle...

    Conhismotor electric bike

    ok thanks for your answer d8veh. Seller told me bike can go up to 40km/h. It's not a restricted bike. Hope it's not going to take too long to reach this max speed..

    Conhismotor electric bike

    I already considered this option. But 25km/h is too slow. I rather purchase a normal bike which would easily go at this speed.

    Conhismotor electric bike

    I don't know from whom the dealer is going to send the bike. I suppose I'll declare 250USD as bike price. So I'll end up with 50GBP taxes. I'll look at the forum import duties. Finger crossed, hope it's going to be a good bike.

    What can I do against taxes? Also I don't think it's CE approved... may that be seized by customs?
