Hi, Is there a battery discharger available that would let me to keep my batteries at a good level for storage if I'm not able to ride for a while? I have three bikes and it's on my mind that I shouldn't neglect any for long periods of time so I'd like something that could maintain them for...

Can anyone recommend a battery charger that would allow me to see how much the battery is charged rather than just a red/green light saying that it's 100%? I've got a 48V 10.4 battery on a 500W motor. Thank you

Hi all, am I right in assuming that most if not all of the front hub kits have a 10mm spindle? My old Halfords mtb has a 9mm spindle I think ( needs a 15 mm spanner ). I guess I'd need to modify the slot? Thanks Ashley

Hi all, I'm thinking of purchasing a 26 inch 250W front wheel kit and some suppliers offer additional brake levers or just the brake cables with sensors. This seems to be an optional extra so I was wondering how necessary this part is? I mean if you stop pedalling the motor cuts out anyway. I'm...

Hi, I ordered a thumb throttle for my bike and it came with red, green and black wires fitted to a female connector. The only free wires on my controller are red, black and white also fitted to a female connector. I'm assuming that this is the throttle connection? I've tried contacting the bike...

I know it's all about the looks ( which I love ) but has anyone had any experience with these bikes? I've seen only a couple of reviews.

I've seen a few conversion kits available with throttles ( grip or thumb ) so are these legal? For instance, 250 watt road legal motor with optional throttle. Does the throttle render the kit illegal?

I tend to only ride out in fair weather at the moment so what chain etc lube can anyone recommend please? Thanks

I keep my bike in the garage so do you think it's fine to charge it where it is ( obviously very cold at the moment ) or should I remove it and take in in the house? Does temperature make any difference?

How precious are you with your ebike? You wouldn't just let a friend have a go on your motorcycle so would you let friends try out your ebike? I'm very reluctant due to the cost and the fact that this is my pride and joy.

Has anyone on here used any of the gunk you put through the valve that helps to seal punctures?

I assume that batteries are somewhat weather resistant but how many of you ride in all weather? Do you cover your battery in any way? I'm assuming water near the terminals can't be a good thing.

I've read about people charging their battery to 75%, 85% etc so how re they accurately determining this? My battery charger just has 3 lights. I guess it would be more accurate reading from the bikes display?

Why do I keep seeing adverts for 'street legal in europe' 750 watt ebikes when the limit is 250? Or is it just the UK that it's 250?

When you lock your bike up in a public space do you remove the battery?

Does anyone know if e bikes are classed as bicycles for cover in home insurance? I'm about to renew my home and contents insurance and I now have an ebike ( and another shortly ). Thanks

I realise that no lock is unbreakable given time but within reason what D lock do you recommend? One that I could take with me rather than just use at home. I'm also planning on a cable too to put through the wheels etc. Thank you

Do any of you have any tips for preventing a folded bike from 'flapping around' when you pick it up? It's a shame they don't come with some type of catch fitted to the frame and handlebar stem. A lot of thought has gone into how they fold but not keep them folded in transit. Thank you

I've read conflicting information on Lithium ion battery care. From charge and discharge battery completely 3 times from new for peak performance to don't let your battery run completely flat or it will reduce it's life span. What do you guys do to maintain yours? Thanks

I've seen simple tracking devices like the ones you'd have on a key ring and can track via a phone. Is it worth using something like this that you could somehow conceal on the bike? At least you'd know where it ended up if stolen.
