I need to pull my motor apart as I inadvertently submerged most of the motor the other day while riding through the New Forest. Turned a corner of the forest trail and bam! Straight into a deep puddle. Many on here have had issues with the screws so I wanted to know exactly which screws I...

My TSDZ2 is to all intents and purposes totally silent. My tyres on the road make more noise than the motor. Other e-bikes commercial or DIY seem to make a heck of a racket, I can hear them coming from afar. Is this the experience of others? Or am I blessed with a good 'un? Interested to...

I haven't had much luck with rear lights on my bike. They either fall off and get lost when traversing uneven ground or potholes, or they fade out after only a few minutes even with a full charge. I need one to fit the end of my rear bike rack, not seat post mounting as I have a knapsack on the...

The centre collar with the four indents is proving difficult to remove.

I don't know if this is good value. what do you think? Bafang Tony

I ordered an 860c display for my experimentation but have just lost interest with the colder weather. No longer have the time as helping to look after autistic granddaughter and I just can't be bothered. The standard display is good enough for my needs now. Purchased from Aliexpress for $81...

Can anybody give a recommendation for e-bike stand-alone insurance? I live in a grandad/granny flat I had built on my son's big house. He organises and pays for the insurance and I just discovered my bike is not covered by it this year as he changed insurers to get a better deal. Cheers Tony.

Haven't been on here for a while, but thought I'd post a couple of observations. I fitted this mid motor back in 2019 review here: https://www.pedelecs.co.uk/forum/threads/whoosh-crank-drive-tongsheng-kit-review.34071/post-489738, and have been very happy with the kit from Whoosh. I have only...

Most of this is taken from my post number #78 on a thread I started last year. https://www.pedelecs.co.uk/forum/threads/pswpower-after-sales-service.33423/ I recently purchased a Specialized Crossroads lightweight road bike from our local charity bike shop here in Bournemouth, "Hope to Cycle"...

This is one weird car, maybe get one of these instead of a new bike? https://twitter.com/i/moments/1082573633145442304?cn=ZmxleGlibGVfcmVjc18y&refsrc=email

I was almost ready to purchase a kit from these guys before xmas, but hesitated at the last moment when replies to my queries were answered by a numpty who seemed to not be bothered and just cut and pasted info already available on their adverts. Also in their terms and conditions, all faulty...

After my 3-bike rack was totalled in France in September I've been searching for a new solution/replacement. Thule do an interesting towbar mounted base system to which can be added all sorts of carrying accessories. There used to be a bike rail accessory, but for some reason they no longer...

Got home from my ride the other day and forgot to charge the bike, I hadn't gone far, just along from the University to Bournemouth Pier and then along the prom. to Sandbanks and back, about 15 miles or so. When I plugged in the charger this morning, no red light (or any other colour) on the...

Has anyone any knowledge of after-market diy steering limiters? The handlebars on my Eagle Freego has a nasty tendency to swivel when on it's stand or when I'm trying to get it on my bicycle rack.

I'm going to be looking at a used e-bike today, I'm a bit suspicious as it has no key and no charger, so it's ringing alarm bells. Is there a register somewhere for stolen bike where I can check the serial number? Cheers, Tony.

I'm looking for a folding bike that has hub gears, they are few and far between. There is a couple of posts on the "Which electric bike should I buy?" forum on this topic, and many of the replies to them don't read the original posts correctly where the posters absolutely specify hub gears...

Just an idle question-is there an off-the-shelf kit for adding this to the e-bike? I designed and built one for my Whoosh Sunbear, Using a regulator from RS components: Switching Regulator, 15 → 36V dc Input, 12V Output, 1AStock no.: 666-4385I I have since sold that bike and miss it on my...

Edit- I think I may have posted this in the wrong thread-perhaps it should be in technical? I recently bought a bike from an older member here Mike63 for a bargain price:). I am having the battery re-celled by BGA reworking after taking advice from various members on this forum, I was...

Finally took the plunge, sold the house, gave the boy some cash to build a granny flat for us on his place so we will soon be footloose and fancy-free. While the extension is being built, we are going to take a couple of months out to see all the places in Europe we have been aching to see...

After being in the colonies for 33 years and not on a bike during that time, on returning to blighty I find it very perplexing why the derailleur gear system is so ubiquitous in the UK. It's exposed to the elements, is always a pain to adjust, you can't change gears when stationary - so why...
