I have a Kalkhoff Agatu 2012 model (impulse one motor) and it has given up the ghost. It started on a ride, a loud noise and vibration coming from the motor housing. Then on a trip to the shops loads of knocking and a grinding noise started. So I had to stop and push the bike home. I rang...

I want to mount my smartphone (Sony Arc) on my bike, I have seen lots of models on eBay for universal ones and the official Sony ones but they all look very flimsy and I would be nervous putting an expensive phone on a vibrating platform like my handlebars are. Anyone got anything they would...

I just tried to respond to a post in the bike reviews section and when I clicked post I got a message saying a moderator needs to review it first. Is this only for the review section or am I being gagged for some reason?

As many of you may know I have recently bought a Kalkhoff Agattu C8 Impulse HS from 50Cycles and I conditioned the battery by discharging it three times as described in the manual. Upon doing this when pressing and holding the battery button for five seconds only four of the five led's lit up...

I did a search and could not find this subject, so hopefully it is new. I was watching some stuff on YouTube about EV's and came across this gem of a programme about batteries. Very interesting and not too hard to follow for a non technical mind like mine. The guy in the video is a bit like a...

As can be seen in my other thread http://www.pedelecs.co.uk/forum/electric-bicycles/14097-very-worried.html I am having a few problems. Whilst writing that thread and getting a few responses it bought to mind another concern I have. Whilst trying to fix the issue of the grinding sound from...

I have had my new Kalkhoff for just over a week now and the alfine 8 speed hub has started making grinding noises. It seems to happen more in the higher gears one through four and is intermittent in nature but in first through third it is constant. I say grinding perhaps a better description...

Saw this from a blog I follow Rode invasie viert feest in het verkeer! - YouTube You can follow the blog here Traffic safety must be celebrated | BicycleDutch It is in English and has some great articles. I recommend spending some time there.

Lovely day for a ride out today. Cold but sunny.

I am told in the manual that I need to condition my battery by using it all up and charging three times. Before today I did about ten miles and then today I did maybe six or seven and my battery ran out. This is alot less than the seventy five miles it is supposed to do. I live in a very hilly...

Does anyone agree with me we need much more work from manufacturers to come up with nice designs that move us forward? Some examples I have seen give me hope are Solexity and VeloSolex. I saw these at the cycle show and loved the design. The test bikes were in constant use so I did not get...

I am going to be selling my recumbent trike, as I now have a eBike and I will not be keeping the trike. It is in very good condition and is the 16th trike ICE ever made. They do not make them like this anymore, Some would say the older ones were better made. I paid £900 for it only a year ago...

I just got back from 50 cycles in Loughborough with a brand spanking new Kalkhoff Agattu C8 Impulse HS tied to the bike rack. This is my first eBike and I have to say the bike is amazing. It sails up hills and has me with a permanent grin on my face. I actually burst out laughing on the first...

Hello everyone, It has been a while since I last posted so thought I would pop by and give you an update. After spending alot of time lurking on this forum and then going off and putting all the great advice gleaned and testing lots of ebikes I finally got a machine! Not an ebike...

Imagine for a few moments that you are me! You have this belly you are carrying around with you, it looks like you are pregnant! You want to lose about 1-2 stone in weight. You want to use a bike to go out and have fun and exercise in a relaxed and enjoyable way. You are totally confused...

It seems to me that quite a few makers and designers are having new bikes and things "coming soon". Am I better to wait till the new year and either:- pick up old stock at knock down prices. wait for the latest cool tech.
