have you tried email them (powacycle) and asking for a copy of the wiring diagram?

I have only been here for around 6 months so don't really know anyone, however some of the sheds did have drug taking parephenalia left in when I first moved in, and there was at least one person sleeping in one of them. I got the council to take the settee and chairs away, and notified the...

It is a pretty nice box especially for £20 off eBay. The only downside is that it sits quite far back on the rear rack- I think balance would be better if it was over the rear wheel axle or slightly forward of it. I think this will be more noticeable with the heavier LiFePO4 battery. I saw a...

in case anyone is interested (and it helps anyone searching the forums in the year 2019) - I've come up with a couple of options. - option 1 being tried: the lock itself is fine- it is the plastic moulding that it locks onto that broke- I have some aluminium bar left (20mm wide by 2mm thick)...

It makes me wonder why they would continue to use a bad carrier company- it reflects so badly on the company giving such a bad impression. And costs money. Perhaps they get such a low cost then charge a lot making a hefty profit, or there are family links. There's a bike shop up here with family...

I had my flinger top box broken into, luckily nothing taken although one of the powabyke strange non-bottle battery casing now has a dent. The part the lock hooks over is smashed as is one of the side fasteners (must have been too hard to work out how to unclip for them). Has anyone any...

If you get one from Aldi it has a 3 year warranty but don't lose the receipt. The time just started going really slowly on my one year old unit and the repair centre wanted nothing to do with it despite still having the box which shows the manufacture date is within the warranty period. They...

OK, Marathon Plus it will be. Will they be OK in the winter too, or would it be worth changing during the worst of the weather?

I'm considering changing the standard tyres on my powabyke X6 from the supplied Raleigh 28 x 1(5/8) x 1(3/8) to something a bit better. They have what seems a quite high pressure recommended - 75psi from memory. I'm assuming almost any of the brand tyres wiil be an improvement? Puncture...

I've had a garmin etrex for years and years- it still works admirably but the mineral glass is getting rather scratched and a bit cloudy now. It's fallen, been dropped, bounced around loose in the back of cars, into rivers. Wonderful kit, but very basic now compared to the ones with in built...

Isn't this a small part of a larger malaise? To expand a bit beyond cyclists only- cyclists can be bullied by car drivers then don't car drivers get treated in this way by some others? White Van Man? I haven't been riding my ebike for very long and have yet to come across this negative...

I knew I'd been looking at them a little before the question- it was on eBay here MOUNTAIN BIKE BRAKE CABLE PROTECTION KIT (5mm)***NEW*** on eBay, also Cables, Bike Parts, Cycling, Sporting Goods (end time 07-Feb-09 20:51:35 GMT)

At least one ebay kit claims higher. No experience of them but eBay UK Shop - outdoor product: camping, hammock, EVA Clog beach shoe Notice up to claim- up to 50kpm (?) but there are 2 speeds of motors 350 and 430 rpm Posts on american forums show faster speeds too.

I joined the bikeregister scheme so there are stickers and stencils on and a magic wand sensor for id if recovered- won't stop a get me home theft but maybe stop the more serious thefts. If it got stolen and recovered hopefully it would be useable.......

But that's the problem- if they changed the law to where you say (20mph) then the same will be said, and implemented by some- a 25 mph roll off. It's similar to the 60mph limit on country roads thing- Is it a real 60mph limit, or can you go as fast as you want when overtaking- some will do...

Thanks. I had looked at Maplin but the choice of their kits is much less than a few years ago. I didn;t think this would do the job very well even after a bit of substitution. Not much at Bull either.

wandering the web looking for cycle icons I came across a picture taken in Brighton of a bike with the wheels stolen. They'll take anything.

My Bikemate cycle computer (from Aldi I think) has just started losing about an hour a day. I've tried a new battery (then a second) but no difference- it is the wired version MCP 30102 I think about 2 years old. I wonder if the other readings are also affected. Anyhow I don't wear a watch...

I live 300 miles away but a google search brought up at the top of the page The Bike Shop Racing Bikes and Cycle Clothing from Questbikes 511 Pinner Road Harrow, HA2 6EH followed by Bicycles Cash And Carry 279-281 Kenton Lane Harrow HA3 8RR Cycle King 451 Rayners Lane Pinner HA5 5ET...

The days when roads were quiet are long gone, it doesn't really matter what time or where you are travelling now- and most roads don't have a minimum speed. Speed should be used appropriately whether it is 20mph or 120mph. At 120mph you don;t have much time to react to a vehicle travelling ar...
