    Bankrupted by a battery?

    I am amazed that someone has asked you to pay £933 for a 36V 14AH battery. I sell my 36V 15AH battery for £345 including courier. can you post some pictures? It may be worth to consider recelling the old battery.

    Simple question

    I thought the 2.5 reduction would reduce the load on the chain and torsion in the bottom bracket beside giving the bike a high tech look.

    Simple question

    a bit overkill isn't it? that box alone costs more than my bike.

    If you have already got a controller, the GSM is robust and a good choice. Otherwise, the Bafang BBS01 is better finished.

    OK, I got it now. I wish I can get hold of a 1:2.5 gearbox for the BB.

    Simple question

    what are you talking about? I use 46T ring on my CD bikes. I reckon Bosch engineers use the small sprocket at the front to stop people abusing their bikes.

    Bafang Bbs01 unusual fault

    I am glad that you got it sorted. I was a bit puzzled when I looked at the picture of the old worn pawls. They seem a bit thin. On the new picture, the difference is quite clear cut. The pawls on the GSM are in between the top and bottom pawls and black, not silver. Good find though.

    that is a very clever arrangement. SW, how fast is your cadence when you want to hit 30mph?

    Hello everyone, looking forward to learning from your wisdom and experience

    I would recommend you try out a bike like the Petite. It's lightweight, with a long range battery (15AH), it has 5 assist levels and a full throttle. On a low assist level like 1 or 2, the bike makes pedaling very pleasant, encouraging you to go out. On higher assist levels, it will climb almost...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    it's not that. Mrs May can have a one line bill to cancel the fixed term. The best way to take her and the tories down is tactical voting.

    Hello everyone, looking forward to learning from your wisdom and experience

    Hello Helen, would Southend be too far for you to travel to? I am sure I can find the perfect bike for you.

    2008 Kalkhoff Pro Connect

    modern bikes are much more flexible, nimbler and lighter. better value for money too. for every well maintained 8-year old bike like Tillson's, you probably have 10 that are broken or sleeping in a shed somewhere.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    No I don't think she wants out. May knows she has to be practical and prepared to accept compromises on FOM and the ECJ in order to get a deal on transitional arrangements with the EU. Her problem is her own MPs, those in her party that want a clean brexit and deregulation, opting out of HR, no...

    I have not but one of my customers has. He did not report any issue. The main difference between the two motors is the extra torque on the 500W unit. You can climb more or less any hill without pedaling. For leisure riding, the 250W kits are fine.

    zalle, the GSM kit is only 250W kit. We also sell the Bafang BBS02 500W kit but currently out of stock. Next arrival is in 6 weeks. The last batch sold out much more quickly than I expected.

    Strictly Ed, his wife Yvette and the Milliband brothers can all give Mrs May a good run.

    Brand new Haibike, two broken chains in first 35 miles, and other problems, advice needed

    2Lazy, KMC chains are non directional. Missing links are there to make the job of fitting a chain simpler for the user and technicians. I don't use special links on my bikes, just use regular pins.

    I have BPM motors on 700C in stock. The kit price with 15AH HL downtube battery is £599. Included in the price is all the parts you need to convert your bike: controller, brake levers, LCD, cableset. I don't think you can find cheaper with 15AH battery. PS: I added 700C rear option to the...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    there is a real risk that parliament will reject the deal with the EU and a resurgence of UKIP. There is no better time for her than now, before the electorate wonders why she would agree to pay the EU a large divorce settlement.
