    Ebco ucl30 battery retro fit

    Thanks for your input! Yeah just something fairly simple and as you say nothing mental power wise. She would only use the electric side purely for accessing the ‘green way’ near us.

    Furo X Battery Question

    Good evening NeilH! I dont suppose i could borrow your brain again please! Say i could get a 36v 20AH battery... Would that be ok to use with it? Or do i need to stick to around 10AH? Also, do you have posts for your bikes that are in your sig? They sound cool!

    Furo X Battery Question

    I do like the look of the one you posted in #8, my only issue is that it doesn’t have the correct connections on, although I do have the crimps needed so don’t know why I’m making this a negative :p please find attached pic!
