Jerry, I agree with you. I should have multiples bikes. Probably 1 electric brompton and 1 electric Jetstream :cool: But I live in a small flat (not a lot of space) and I have limited budget. So I'm trying to find a good compromise between comfort, speed and convenience.. This one was almost...

Ok, I look hilarious but consider this: It was an electric scooter I purchased but now it's not working anymore. However, when it was working, it was really convenient. With this electric scooter, I was able to enter every shop around my flat. Tesco, groceries, Sainsbury, Iceland... I didn't...

Jerry, do you think the bike doesn't worth it? Because I'm in contact with the manufacturer and I may purchase it. Maybe this video is more compelling: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RFzg1KoQR3o&feature=player_embedded#! With foldable rack...

Yeah, when I see the guy peddling, it doesn't seem very easy to do lol.

wow, that is dirty ugly :eek: I hope when I'll get my bafang it's now going to look like this. How come is it still running? And do you always limit to 22amps? Never more than 1000W? I'd love to increase to 1500W lol

The real strength of this battery is its weight. It's 50% lighter than lifepo4 for a cheaper price. The 2 lifepo4 in your graph are probably way more heavy than the limn2o4. If you want to do an equivalent comparison, the 2 batteries have to have similar weight. In your chart, the lifepo4 at...

I've just come across this shopping bike: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=ZA0Gk6bTV8w#! Note that the bike doesn't fold particularly well. But it once folded, it accomplish perfectly its function: - Help people to carry it around (lift, doors, hall) - Can be used as...

Franck, I've seen these battery but I'm not sure what that worth. Any idea about the calendar life (or shelf life) and capacity loss after 1-2 year?

these batteries and seller are rather exploratory lol. The colours and descriptions don't feel professional. Not sure if we can trust them lol. I don't think I have the skill to transform that into usable battery. But I would love to know that is possible. £40 lightweight battery? That would...

Jerry, I'm a interested now lol. Have few questions for you if you don't mind: Do they have 1000+ cycle and good calendar life when you use them at 2-3C? How many % did the max capacity dropped from the new one in 30 months? And ultimately where do you buy your battery? I'm sure you know good...

Thanks D8veh. Can you be more precise? Do you know where I can get them for good price?

All these problems remember me an anecdote. Initially when I was looking at ebike, everybody at work was laughing at me. They said it was for old people. Then I purchased my first ebike on ebay. This one was incredibly slow. And they were laughing again at me because of the speed. They said...

I may have a silly question, but if the Konion cells are better than A123 (and therefore Lifepo4), why don't we already have mass production of these type of battery for eBike?

I agree with Morphix, law should be more of a guideline rather than just apply it because it's the law. Do you never break the law? Have you ever crossed the road outside zebra crossing? It's like the car analogy. The car doesn't have a speed restriction by itself, and although in city you are...

D8v3h, are you talking about the Konions or the A123? If these cells are standard on laptop, then in the ebike (battery) industry we have a lot of progress to do. Konion seems to have good C rating and lifecycle. They seem to be better than standard Lifepo4? And A123 are the lifepo4 with high...

Hello, Have you tried the konion cells? Is it better than A123? what's the best value?

Sorry for my newbiness, but is the LiMn2O4 equivalent to the NiCoMn? Is it the same battery as this one? 48V20Ah Li-Ion Shrink Tube EBike Battery Pack - BMSBATTERY

Thanks for this explanation Jerrysimon. I'm still thinking about a secure way to lock my bike and its battery outside to keep myself light. I don't have a car in london, but I was driving in paris and from my experience it's quite awful and there is nowhere to park. I had so many parking fines...

I've read in a lot of forum that dahon rear dropout is very ofte 133 mm. Some people converted a dahon and reported a rear dropout of 133 mm. Has that changed since?

Thanks D8v3h. Always here to help, it's greatly appreciated. I've now a complementary drilling stand with my drill. Is it enough with that? I suppose I won't need to buy a pillar drill if I have that?
