Al charging is independent of the controller and is carried out either direct via charger to battery charge port or some bikes have an onboard charge point which connects via...

    Freego Hawk vs Giant Easy-E+2

    The two pics both tell a different story top Giant is poor, pic taken on a crap snowy day in dull light, it does nothing to show the bike off. Freego is presented very well on a bright sunny spring day, even the daffs make the pic much better and says look at the bike ride me and I'm ready to...

    Freego Hawk vs Giant Easy-E+2

    To my eyes if someone can't be bothered to oil the chain just for a sale says to me they are really bothered if it sells or not, the Giant if you like it offer a silly price as it might want more then just a chain and gear derailleur adjusting.

    Freego Hawk vs Giant Easy-E+2

    Freego for the handling, battery position is better as is having a rear hub, less skittish and better front end feel. Also looks like the bike has been better cared for.

    Only you and the buyer will know the price, if you get little interest then the price is too high. Being diy bike £300 - £400 as used.

    Width between rear dropouts

    With side screw plate these are quite simple to open if they are not rusted by being wrongly fitted or water has ingressed. Used a rubber hammer if you have tap the axle end on the non cable side or a block of wood and hammer. If having any issues ask first. There is little inside to go wrong...

    Not a great start with e-bikes. Chain continually jumps off the front sprocket.

    Yes, unlink the chain and remove from derailleur. Fit chain around largest rear gear (1st gear) and also the largest toothed front chain ring, the two ends should pass each other by two links for Shimano derailleur or one link for SRAM. These are the recommended ways to measure correct chain...

    "Super light electric bikes could soon be a reality..." ??

    Any e-car noise is not for the benefit of the user, it is there to make any unsuspecting third party using the road or footpath aware of it's presence. It's not just about adults, there are the young and other venerable people as well.

    Wheels. Rims and spokes to be precise.

    A lot of the China wheel kits use silly wide rims of about 24/25mm and 13g 2.4mm spokes some are ok, some like the front and rear rim to match so a rebuild in a matching one to the front or rear is common. All my rims are 19mm and I buy on email from Bankruptbikeparts, my last still not...

    Replacement Controller question. Have removed this faulty item from Elise folding bike and cant find a replacement with same pinout. The listed model

    You won't find an exact one as most bikes use controllers which are oem only so you have to buy another brand, also you will have to buy a paired display for compatibility. With any change of controller brand one has to expect to carry out some wiring changes/soldering as not all connectors...
