Hi John, I see in HarryB's thread that you commented that the performance of the Bionx is better than the Cytronex - if I read right. I've had a 350W Li-ion Bionx for a few years and wouldn't be without it, but have been intrigued by the Cytronex. I'm not actually in the market for one, but it...

I think a couple of people were interested in these tyres so I thought I'd pass on my first impressions. Fitting I fitted the 28 x 2.0 to my Trek hybrid (700C) easily enough, popping on by hand. Clearance This is what I was worried about but they do fit - with about 1 or 2 mm to spare on...

Am I right in thinking the Cateye BM 500G Mirror is a good one to get? I've been searching the forum but can't find a post I'm sure I read a while back that recommended which one to get. And racks... I've never used panniers before but my wife and I have just ordered a pair of Altura Dryline...

I have had my 350W li-ion BionX for coming up for two years and done over 3000 miles on it. Most of that was in the first year as an op kept me off the bike for a while but I'm now back to commuting on it, albeit not daily as before, which is a 13 mile round trip. My wife has decided to get...

My wife is wondering about getting an electric bike through the cycle to work scheme, and I see 50cycles can help with this. Does anyone know, though, if there's a way to get a Bionx kit through the scheme? Thanks, Nick

Does anyone (Flecc, I guess I am looking at you!) know if it does any harm to partially charge a lithium ion battery? I have always fully charged the one on my Bionx but have wondered what is the best thing to do if there isn't time for a full charge - cycle on a battery that is less than...

Hi I've had my 350W li-ion Bionx for about 18 months now an done just over 3000 miles. I've just had the bike back (a Trek 7200 hybrid) from a local shop that has serviced it and respoked the rear wheel. Unfortunately, the rear wheel now makes a noise a bit like that of rubbing a wet...

The Izip thread has got me thinking and I was wondering if someone could help with some queries please. 1) What sort of maintenance does a Currie require? 2) How easily is the rear wheel removed (thinking punctures)? 3) Can speed limiters be turned off for that Land's End to John o'...

I've got Bionx's 36v li-ion battery and have had vague thoughts about getting a second charger to use at work and I wondered if it would be easier and cheaper to get one here in the UK rather than import one from America - despite the exchange rate. The markings on my charger are: High Power...
