On this subject I always commend eZee bike, for they've kept exactly the same battery mounting for their rear of seat tube battery on their models for over a decade now. Whether their folder or rigid frame, crossbar or stepthrough, NiMh or Lithium batteried, their newest batteries have always...

But Wai Won is Singaporean! :) .

Indeed, and it's good for customers to have choice in all consumer fields. Many don't necessarily have the best products to meet their needs, but if they are happy, that's all that matters. .

My opinion too. Ten years ago when battery shortcomings meant both hub and crank systems had low power in the interests of adequate range, crank drive made sense as a way of getting up hills with limited power. Today's batteries permit much higher power and torque with good range, so that need...

Velosolex were always classified as motorcycles in the UK, meaning a full m/c licence and all the accompanying motor vehicle stuff. .

A vey false picture, I take everything in my stride and can't see the point of acting like that, That's why I've taken the line that I have in this thread, trying to get people to cool down and not take actions that just wind up others. .

You wouldn't do it to me, my one's keyless. :p .

I agree Tom, I worded my response badly, meaning the liability was TNT's but of course the claim has to be made through their customer, 50cycles. .

But assuming 50cycles put your correct address on the battery packaging, that looks like a TNT error. In that case they are at fault and your claim is against them, not 50cycles. It doesn't seem to be anything to do with the 50cycles warranty, just a courier mistake for which TNT will have to...

There's a supplier of e-bike batteries on this link You'll need to check the sizes with them. .

There's innovation that makes sense, and innovation that is just change for changes sake. Some of the latter has long blighted the bicycle and e-bike scene. Look at the really successful bicycle and pedelec markets and it's the long proven sound basic designs that fill the market, the gimmicky...

Different company and products though Hoppy, note the spelling difference of y and i in the Powab*ke and Powatr*ke names.

No, our separate e-bike regulation, the 1983 EAPC law, does not specify how power is applied. Therefore a full throttle while riding was acceptable under our old law so the walk alongside regulation didn't come into play. Our new law which has just come into force this April now aligns with...

The Revive Spirit unit doesn't need any controller, everything is built into the motor unit other than the handlebar switching unit. That connects to one of the small multi pin sockets and the two thick wires from the unit are the battery positive and negative connections. The battery on these...

To store the output from the solar panel, it would never be able to run the inverter directly since it's output at best will be far too low. Long slowish charge of lead acid 12 volt battery from the panel, then the accumulated lead acid battery content used to drive the inverter for the...

I fully agree, but the cyclist should have remained blameless by not reacting in the way he did. His reaction was daft, it was never going to have any result other than the one that predictably arose. As I've shown, despite the driver swerving in, his path was still completely clear to cycle...

Yes, it seems that is the case, despite some previous government advice to the contrary. All a bit silly though, since some of ours are impossible to circumnavigate in anything other than a toy pedal car. I've just been looking at the government guidance for local authorities and others and...

As John says Russ. In fact a previous search for all my posts ended at 2014, nothing from 2015 showing. However, I've just tried again and all are showing, so it seems ok now. Thanks. .

But why this gross exaggeration? Just because a driver gets close enough to make a cyclist feel uncomfortable, that doesn't mean they "nearly killed". The cyclist alone is a huge variable. Where one might not feel unhappy about the closeness, a second might feel uncomfortable while a third...

Hopeless, I've already noticed that anomally. The world apparently ended around December 2014. .
