    Loss of power

    Hi everyone I’ve got a kalkhoff pro connect 2008 and had the battery recelled at Jimmys last year. Everything seemed great when received. But recently it seems to have lost a bit of power. I’ve done a few checks and after a full charge it was outputting 29V which Jimmy said was perfect. Any...

    Kalkhoff Pro Connect spare

    I’ve just resurrected my Pro Connect 2008 successfully but on a long run I discovered that I had lost the cover that goes over the motor. It’s held on by double sided adhesive which looks like it had dried out - after only 14 years!! My question is where could I possibly get another one from...

    Kalkhoff Pro-Connect

    Would any of you knowledgeable peeps out there know where I could source a 16 hole rim for the Pro-connect. As some of you 'older' members will remember that the Pro-connect came with 16 spoke wheels originally, so as the rim is wearing on my front wheel I was wondering if anybody had sourced...

    Kalkhoff Pro-Connect 15 month report

    I thought it might be useful to any newbies out there who may be deciding which electric bike to buy, to write of my experiences since buying my Pro-Connect 15 months ago. It would also be nice to swap thoughts and opinions of any other Kalkhoff owner who (like myself) waited a long time to own...

    Cycle computers Pros and Cons

    I am thinking about buying a cycle computer. If anybody has any views on Wire/Wireless ones, advantages/disadvantages I would appreciate their comments. I am looking for a fairly simple one, unlike the one that tells you how your hearts doing then makes the tea:rolleyes:

    Pro Connect Chain

    After having the chain jump off the cogs for the second time in two weeks, I am wondering whether the chain is too loose. How can I check this. I gave it a good oiling the last time thinking it may be a stiff link. Any opinions greatly received.

    Chain off Pro Connect

    I just wanted to tell you about my experience on Thursday night. I was cycling back from work at about 10pm, happily pedalling along when suddenly hit a bump in the road and my pedals started going a lot faster but the bike slowed down!! Yes the chain had come off. As it was dark I...

    The Pro Connect has landed!!

    After a 4 month wait the (Pro Connect 53cm), arrived yesterday. When the battery was charging I took it out for a 3 mile ride and first impression was (as most people have said), the gearing is too low. I never used anything lower than 4th. The bike itself looks quality and the finish is...

    Pro Connect Gears

    I hope someone can help me decide what gearing I might need before I order a Pro Connect. At the moment I ride a 21 gear mountain bike, I rarely use the lowest gear on the 3 cog but use the highest gear on the 3 cog when going down hills. I never use the first gear on the 7 cog, but use all the...
