    Connecting Lipo's to my Kudos Sonata Advice Please

    Glad I kept my 500W Psu and 450watt lipo chargers. Most of the time I return from a day out with at least 50% battery but a couple of weeks ago I ran out about 4 miles from home with a long slow climb still to do. Hope this will solve the problem.

    Connecting Lipo's to my Kudos Sonata Advice Please

    Thanks for your reply an sound advice, I did some detailed inspection and found that one of the three spade connectors on bike end is a dummy with no connection on the battery side, this is what caused my confusion and your reply prompted me to look a lot closer. I have been using lipo's for a...

    Kudos Sonata 100 miles on

    A nice day out along the Castlemain Trailway and on to a pub lunch in the New Forest. The Kudos Sonata has performed faultlessly over the last couple of months, so there is not a lot to say other than I have no reason to think the next 100 miles will be any different. Power is excellent...

    Retailer doing so well !!

    H Hi and thanks for your reply. I called the London shop a week ago. The eBay question has been answered today. It seems that my questions have been answered, I will forget the Nuvinci after the opinions of this forum. You are right, a call back would have saved all of this. Thanks again Paul

    Retailer doing so well !!

    According to the add banner to the right of this post they are still called The Electric Transport Shop. I was calling about 2 different bikes @ 2 different stores so they must have a sales policy that says ignore customers .

    There was an answer machine after some time, I left a message on the third attempt. Don't think they will get my custom.

    Retailer doing so well !!

    I need to get some opinions on this. I have great Kudos Sonta that I am considering passing on to the wife as the bug has bitten!! I am hankering for a crank drive with the Nuvinci system and I noticed on eBay a KTM with the Nuvinci system so I thought I would ask a couple of question, easy ...

    Thanks, yes I found it. It was a laugh because I didn't even know how to turn the bike on till I downloaded the manual!!

    Kudos Sonata

    Hmmm, very interesting!! Kudos do say on their web site that all bikes conform to EN 15194. Thanks for the info, I did call Kudos but they said they don't have any such info, I asked if there was a manual of any kind. Thanks for pointing this out.

    Kudos Sonata

    After lots of help on this forum I decided to buy the Kudos Sonata ex-demo as offered by Kudos Cycles. I had narrowed down to a few bikes, some were over budget a couple were second hand and others just didn't fit the bill. I looked at a second had volt that was quite high spec and advertised...

    Any info on the B'Twin BeBike 900

    anoyherkiwi, thanks for the info. Seems I uncovered a hornets nest. Thanks for all the help. Thanks Dave, interesting that my one negative thought on the BB is the brakes, the Kudos Sonata sure is a good spec with hydraulic brakes I will contact you regarding your ex demo. My only worry is...

    Any info on the B'Twin BeBike 900

    From what I have seen in the local bike shop I would say yes. Reading a number of threads on this forum it is clear that £1000 is a bench mark figure, the cheapest bike in my area is a Volt pulse at £1399, quite a nice bike but still £400 over budget. Hmm perhaps I could be Woosh Dorset...

    Any info on the B'Twin BeBike 900

    Thanks, at the moment the Woosh Big Bear is my first choice. Is the motor more powerful on the Big Bear than the BTwin 9000?

    Any info on the B'Twin BeBike 900

    I came across this bike, it is sold in the UK by Decathlon, it looks a very good spec with Shimano Nexus gears, and at under £1k it must be worth considering. Has anyone here got one? Any info would be great. Thanks.
