Literal translation of the Polish new battery text, not quite sure what to make of it. D8veh?: Standby mode: 13.6 - 13.9 v Work cycle: 14.5 - 14.9 v Maximum start initiation below 2.1 A .

Agreed, I've used them often and my hub motor rear wheel is built with them, no failures and in it's seventh year now. .

A legacy of decline. As our industries collapsed and export incomes disappeared, something had to give. We chose that to be public investment. In the decades of this happening, Germany, France, Italy and others were pouring huge investment sums into public infrastructure when it cost far less...

I think personal peferences come into it Rob, I hate lots of power level switching seeing it as a nuisance, it is only a few watts we have anyway. Standard and High is all I want at most. Over the years three levels have been the most common on crank drives, though earlier ones only had two...

I think the replacement batteries may be the wrong type Paulo. These SLA batteries are made for various purposes, and those for burglar alarms and the like have very long life but inadequate discharge rates for an e-bike. The type motor cycles use for starting are also unsuitable, since they...

My handlebar is similarly crowded, but I doubt we'd get agreement on many factors like shift control type. However, by layout I was thinking of the major factors: Where the motor is. Where the battery is. Motor drive through chain or within wheel. The long established and mature motor...

A rail on the side of the footbridge could carry a Stannah Stairlift style enclosed platform for a wheelchair, carrying it across the lines under the wheelchair users button control at each end. That would be the cheapest solution, and the design could be fitted to any railway station...

I've seen a number of reasons over the years, among them: The view that bikes cost around about hundred pounds has resulted in many buying the cheap junk e-bikes that have been marketed over the years. They soon fail and usually have no service/spares provision/backup. Lithium batteries have...

I notice that everyone is studiously walking away! P.S. Don't click the photo and scroll down! :( .

I've noticed many times that Google often returns different results on repeated same-term searches, there is no consistency, even minute by minute. That list looks very A to B Magazine view biased! :D .

I've seen a number of complaints from the disabled about this very thing. It seems cost as well as the logistics comes into the issue, a provision to cover the entire network being prohibitively expensive. The London Underground is proportionally doing much better than Network Rail, but of...

Because this interfering nonsense deserves a fight back. If, after full consideration of all the factors, universal cycle helmet wearing was desirable, we can be certain our regulation mad governments would have introduced compulsion. In fact they've blocked all attempts to do so, showing that...

I'm confident there's unlikely to be a big advance, in truth batteries advance at a snails pace over time despite numerous announcements from institutions hoping to get funds. One day there might be agreement on what an e-bike constitutes in terms of layout, but there's no sign of that...

Come on, why was that comment made? It's obvious isn't it? What someone wears is their own business. If it's peculiar it can legitimately attract comment, but why would anyone comment on someone not wearing a hat in an age when few do? Would anyone comment on someone not wearing a scarf...

I copied and pasted your "best e-bike 2014" into Google and it came up with the first site heading saying "top e-bike 2014" as being the Volt Pulse model. Not bad but there's plenty better, it was apparently voted top 2014 e-bike model by T3. Hence my comment. .

You must love to be disappointed! :D .

Partly desperation of the car makers to try to get miserable sales to meet their own and government targets, and also disguising the prices by shifting how the charges are being made. Renault/Nissan's trick for example, renting their Leaf/Fluence models' £16,000 battery at monthly rates which...

Indeed, the same is true of spent car batteries, they have many years of useful life in them for other purposes than very high drain starting, something I've done for decades.

. But you are disagreeing on something different from what I posted, so I repeat my last answer that I posted on overall likelyhoods across the market and over time. And some of what you posted is clearly wrong. Hub motors are not sealed for life when manufacturers make available internal...

The waist strap height and lack of rear drop indicate to me that it may be a Chinese production, designed around a smaller figure. Still, if no good you could part exchange it for a car which will keep you dry and warm. ;) .
