I don’t know what you thought she should get involved at all? It had nothing to do with her. It was between KD and the other bloke.

There was a thread on these a couple of weeks ago. You might turn it up with a search. Generally thought of as being a bit of a waste of time as you won’t get much power from it, and it will slip in the rain, and also possibly wreck the tyre. A proper kit is not a lot more and will do a proper...

It’s difficult if you are a long way from anywhere. As my first e bike I bought a Woosh sight unseen, and it turned out to be a mistake. The bike was okay - it had an issue which they sorted out but that was’t the problem. It was just the wrong sort of control sensor for me. Speed sensor, which...

They don’t seem to be on eBay anymore but the Kudos dealers site has them in Pwllheli. MotorSport Tools 01758750247. Assuming it’s up to date.

Kudos has dealer on Anglesea or somewhere very near. They sell on eBay. Just go to eBay and search Kudos e bikes and you’ll see them.

The CPS has given updated guidance on them and confirmed that they are illegal. It seems the police want to nip the current fad for them in the bud. http://www.theguardian.com/technology/2015/oct/12/hoverboards-illegal-pavements-roads-scooters

Just get over it. So he thought you might be a plant - which does happen - so what?

Flecc who contributes here has a Panasonic help website and that might have what you need. Click on his name and there should be a link to it somewhere on his profile.

If you’re so concerned why don’t you do some testing yourself? There are many ways to test a tachometer and I’m sure you were taught some at school. When you have your results post them here. As I wrote in what seems like another lifetime I have and the reading is pretty accurate.

Every e bike magazine review mentions that they cut out at that speed. Read some. Actually they mostly read about 17.3mph which is just a little bit over the real speed.

No it is ten percent faster and all the Kalkhoffs are the same. I’ve measured it accurately as I measured my other bike which cut out at dead on 15.5mph.

The Kalkhoff cut out at a little over 17mph is one of the reasons I would be reluctant to change to another make. I don’t know of any other manufacture that makes use of the ten percent leeway in the regs to give that extra assist speed. It cuts out imperceptibly after the power is tapered down...

When people post about problems like this they are self selecting so there is no way of knowing how widespread they actually are. As an example there were problems with a batch of Kalkhoff batteries a year ago - I and a couple of others here had bad ones - and a lot here were saying how you...

250w is a purely nominal figure and most motors produce far more at peak power. A BPM motor or equivalent would have been much better for you. Oxygen do a very good kit which makes for a powerful hill climber, and that may have been the one that was out of stock. Woosh and others will sell you a...

Raleigh are not the same as the old maker of that name which went bust years ago. The ownership of the brand is confusing, and split between several companies in different countries and continents. This one may be made in Germany or possibly Holland. Derby Cycles owns one on the Raleigh brands...

I believe that airlines will only allow batteries up to 4ah or maybe not even that. So they won’t take it.

Yes, must have skimmed the beginning. If he is a true gentlemen he should do something for him since it’s only been a week and it’s got problems…..

It would help to know what bike it is. You can probably find a manual for it online which will have a section dealing with fault codes and flashing lights, and what they mean. Is the wheel magnet in place at at the right distance for instance? If it’s got too big a gap or has slipped that...

The impulse Kalkhoff can be charged on the bike. Don’t know about the latest integrated model but I doubt they will have gone back to using the pedestal only.

That’s the total battery capacity he’s talking about not the charge. You can test both by holding the button down briefly for the charge state, and holding it down for the capacity. All batteries lose capacity and this one is three years old so will have lost some. But it shouldn’t affect the...
