    Is a removable display a must? Which models have them?

    A mono- e cyclist? Have to be the back half though.

    Woosh Krieger Review

    What he means is that the battery will last longer if it’s recharged after every trip. Even a 10 mile trip. The motor will have more power with a full battery too.

    Bosch made the VW emission cheating dongle.

    Do you have to adjust the pump using the screw to pass the MOT? Lots of the old diesels had to be manually adjusted to pass the emissions test, and then when the owner drove home the car would hardly have enough power to get up to the speed limit. So back at home it was just unscrewed a bit...

    So you accept that it’s a meaningless question but you answer anyway? That’s ridiculous. Okay. What does coffee taste like? That’s a meaningless question for you. The answer coffee, which is at least accurate is equally meaningless.

    But that range is so wide as to be meaningless; and the more pedal input you put in using high assist on hills or into wind with a TS bike the more battery power you will use. Because the motor works harder to multiply your effort. The only thing you can say is you will go further if you turn...

    Advice on a fair price for 2nd hand bbs02

    You’ve answered your own question I should have thought. it is over the odds since unlike Woosh there is no warranty at all.

    Sw Scotland Newbie

    Focus are made by Derby Cycles who also make the sister Kalkhoff brand which uses the same powertrain battery type. They are generally respected as a premier brand with good reliability. One of the Kalkhoff battery types had problems a year or so ago which were widely reported. But that seems to...

    HELP

    She doesn’t need to shout. EBay will do what it does and she will get her money back if she follows the arcane procedures and doesn’t allow it to time out. So far she appears to have done the right things in her claim.

    It’s a nonsensical question really. Like asking a roomful of motorists what they get to the gallon. The answer is that they all get different miles per gallon because they don’t all have the same cars and they don’t all drive them in the same places or at the same speeds. Just like a car if you...

    Oh well it could be worse. How do you think Ronnie Pickering is feeling?

    Sw Scotland Newbie

    Focus don’t get much attention. But they have the Impulse 11 motor with gear shift interrupt. So are at least as pokey if not more so than Bosch or Yamaha. One has a 612wh battery too. That one is around the three grand mark but there are cheaper ones. 50 Cycles sell them.

    He said he paid £650 card and £250 cash. Nothing about a discount. You’re like a dog with a bone.

    Kalkhoff Pro Connect Impulse 9 / 10 (9-G/10-G)

    With mine at least you have two settings. One is on, and the other is light sensor, so it comes on when it’s getting a bit dark. I think they really want you to have them on all the time, and daylight running lights are a good idea on bicycles as much as motorbikes and new cars. When someone...

    If this bloke us the current manager at the Bristol shop he is pretty fearless. Or about to leave maybe.

    Kalkhoff Pro Connect Impulse 9 / 10 (9-G/10-G)

    No I have one too. The wheel doesn’t spin quite as long as without it but in practice you really can’t notice it. I leave my lights on all the time and forget about it.

    Custom ebike kit vs ready built

    I think Woosh will convert a bike for you with their kit. Edit. Isn’t that right trex? I notice you didn’t mention them.

    Shipping electric bike from UK to USA

    When I had to return my 17ah battery to 50 Cycles under warranty just before Christmas they couldn’t suggest anyone to transport it. The wouldn’t even ship me the new one so I could send the old one back, and I had to make a 300 mile round trip to the nearest shop to do the swap. They told me...
