What type of 'Electrice Bike' do you have ?

Thanks will do, I will report back when I have a reply.

They appear to only sell cased batteries.

Is there a recommended UK supplier of the uncased type eBike battery, i.e just covered in heat shrink, 36V 5Ahr to 10Ahr ? Plenty of suppliers out in the far East but the capacities quoted are just plain silly, you can apparently get a 36V 20Ahr for £40 ! So a supplier that can be trusted is...

The current eBike\Pedalec rules are easily manageable for those that choose to be law abiding. What is wrong with the system, as with many other regulations, is that there is no apparent interest in enforcing the regulations. The UK in particular has become a society when observance of large...

This was a jury trial in the Crown court, so presumably the defence had the opertunity to present evidence, medical reports etc. Interesting how, based on a few comments on web sites, social media etc, some people can appear to form a strong view that this is a misscarriage of justice in some...

Whilst this is a tragic case, its just plain wrong that a pedestrian should be so abusive, both physically and verbally, to a cyclist that was entitled to be there. If someone did that to me, I can fully understand that I could be put off ballance trying to avoid the assault. Would anyone...

So, if someone just 'contributes' to the death of another, what should the penalty be ? If the pedestrian had not shouted abuse, gesticulated in obvious anger etc towards the cyclist, forcing the cyclist to try and avoid the pedestrian, there would very likley not have been a fatality.

I did see that. I get the impression that a lot of pedestrians are not aware of the concept of 'shared pavements' but that might just be me. There is a video here, could be distressing; https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-cambridgeshire-64824436

Perhaps the rules could or maybe should be changed to rule out ghost pedaling, but until they are ...............................

Surely it requires some effort to move the pedals ? OK, so its a very small effort, but thats not the same as no effort.

When I am out and about, I do see the majority of cyclists riding responsibly and mostly wearing helmets. EScooter riders, on the road and pavement are the opposite, most dont ride responsibly, they are too fast, playing dodgems etc and rarely wearing helmets. On good condition, very flat...

Most of the hub motors I have seen, including the 3 I have bought, have a short cable coming out of the hub which plugs into the extension cable going to the controller. Removing a wheel with a hub motor is easy enough, I just unplug the cable by the motor.

If an eBike can be desresticted, I think all you have to do is find a suitable Internet forum and ask how to do it.

You really sure its legal to use a motor above the 250W limit, on the road, just by making adjustments to the controller ?

But does the holder for an 18V battery also fit a 36V battery ?
