    Carrera E replacement.

    ERD is the Effective rim diameter measured across the rim from the end of one nipple to the opposite one. All rims have a different measurement typically a 700c rim will be approx. 600mm +/- 5mm. So until you receive your rim you can't order spokes, some rims provide the ERD which you can...

    All in one wheel from BMSbattery

    Not quite on topic though a little related, a 32 year old man was given 6 points after being caught using one of these in London. Added to the 6 he already had was banned from driving, Apparently he was doing about 12 mph wizzing pass pedestrians and seen riding on the road. Think I saw the...

    This one only compromises on the colour but a tin of spray paint will sort that out :eek:. For hub gears usually means crank drive and upping the budget sign up to British Cycling for about £30 and get 10% off at Halfords. More like it ...

    Oxygen s cross st has a semi integrated down tube battery sizing might be an issue. https://www.e-bikesdirect.co.uk/brands/oxygen/oxygen-s-cross-cb-hybrid-electric-bike http://www.halfords.com/cycling/bikes/electric-bikes/oxygen-s-cross-st-electric-bike-17in#

    Woosh Crusa has a nice look about it with 13ah battery, balloon tires for light off road and road for 5'- 3" and up. Out of there range I think it looks the nicest of the step thru's and not costing the earth. http://wooshbikes.co.uk/?crusa

    eMTB owners photo and ride thread.

    Hmmm' that Keymer section was a right bog hole at times. Your going to love the bees, fascinating subject to get involved with :D. Occasionally they show you appreciation of their love after all they are female !!! Apart from some lads that are only there for the free food and mating...

    eMTB owners photo and ride thread.

    There's a route I take from the Worth way track between Felbridge & Bletchingley which is about 80 - 90% bridleway that gets like that once the rains come from Autumn onwards, also the leaves combine with the clag which makes pushing inevitable a few times during that section. I often have to...

    Carrera E replacement.

    Should be ok for Neil then as his bike is disc. Spokes wise if Neil is sourcing them he needs to wait until the rim arrives to measure the ERD.

    Elife Explorer 36v 250w Electric Folding Bike with 20inch Wheel

    For the money I don't think you can go far wrong, it has to be very good value for a cheap 36v folding bike. We have mentioned it a few times on here previously. The electrics will be Chinese and fairly simply to rectify, replace or upgrade if anything goes wrong in the future. Likewise for the...

    Sub £1000 bike for a 7 mile commute on canal towpath. Less sweats needed!

    Don't over look the possibility of derestriction as you may well soon get fed up with the treacle affect of the 15.5 mph cut off.

    Wired bike lights

    There is no need to do anything elaborate for fixed lights. For a diy route PSWPower KT controller has a separate wire/horn loop for lights installation obviously not suited to the Giant. On my town /commute bike I simply took a direct feed (using 22awg wire) from the live supply from battery...

    Carrera E replacement.

    That's the crux of the matter, if you are able to lace and true your own wheels then a bare motor is ideal. Need to find a LBS who will do it but expect £75 maybe. 14g spokes will do the job.

    Wanted: Dead Qxxx front wheel hub

    PSWPower are kosha to deal with and have used more then BMSBattery, items arrive quite quickly, They also have a shop/presence on Aliexpress and ebay. If you have hollowtech or gxp B/B you have to mod the disc a little by drilling out the center carefully to go over the outer bearing shells.

    Yosepower hub kits.

    Don't forget Elifeshop on ebay offer the exact same kits as YSB. The two sellers are from the same district and are probably related looking at the addresses and seller surname.
