    Battery conditioning

    Hi Folks, and thanks to all who responded. Sorry about the long delay, but this has been due to the very reason that I asked the question in the first place - my use will be infrequent and restricted to 'as and when I can'! Anyroadup I think I've got the picture:- 1) I don't need to condition...

    Battery conditioning

    Tillson, the lamp in question is not bike lamp, but an old fashiond 240v mains lamp. As I said the bulb will only glow feebly! Unfortunately 'riding it flat' twice isn't an option, I seek some static means to this end! Eddieo, Pro Commuter is the brand. Think it might be similar to a Juicy. Clive.

    Battery conditioning

    I have my Pro Commuter bike and I'm well pleased with it, but the realities of work/weather/general life and my intended use of occasionally bimbling around locally mean that running the (36v 16ah LIon) battery completely flat will take forever in (my) normal use. Mindfull of the advice that...

    Do ebikers wind drivers up more?

    And it isn't even full moon yet. Ask anyone who (as I do) works in a hospital environment and you'll hear that bad/angry behaviour increases at that time! The word [I]lunatic[I] is apposite................ Clive

    Sorry if I touched a nerve mate. I was just making the point that it affects all road users. Hope it gets sorted for you. Clive

    First Rant of the year

    Feeble (?) response. This is not about ebikes - nor is it about motorcycles (who's users will probably suffer more), nor even about cars All road users are suffering from what the weather threw at us. Just let the road menders get on with the job they have to do and, if they fail us (all)...

    E-Bike Of The Year 2010?

    New ebike category. Pro Commuter 350w (the bike mentioned by Blew it in the thread Good South Downs ebike). Good value. Good man to deal with. 'Different' styling. And all round good purchase. Clive.

    Do we need so many traffic lights?

    Lectureal posted his response whilst I was composing mine. Similar logic though?

    Do we need so many traffic lights?

    I LOVE this idea. Not so much as a cyclist - we can, after all hop off, behave like a pedestrian, push the bike across and then ride on laughing at the people left fuming in the unnecessary queue! But perhaps the answer lies not in turning them off altogether, but rather switching them instead...

    Winter riding - any tips?

    Glove layers Don't spend lots of money, just get some latex gloves - the sort that scare you when the nurse (or even worse the doctor) puts 'em on. They are cheap and form excellent insulation under your normal gloves. As for riding on ice - quite simply DON'T. Cive.
