I would just like to say a huge THANK YOU for all the emails of support for Tour De Presteigne I have received in the last few days especially those who offered to help with various events. I am currently away on business and struggling with remote email access. I will answer individual...

Eddieo. The point is that 1000s of people have visited the event and have a good time. The event has never claimed to be anything else. It also promotes electric bikes to the general public. Little Englanders are people who sit on the sidelines criticising and trying to stop other people...

Tour De Presteigne I am one of the organisers of Tour De Presteigne and also a director of OnBike so would like to explain the actual position with regards to Tour De Presteigne. First of all I should say that we have been organising the event for five years. Pete started the event well...

Is the Red LED on the control box on? If not try disconnecting the ignition switch and use a multimeter to see if the ignition switch is working. If not remove the rubber sleeve on the back of the ignition barrel and check the soldering. Sometimes the wires come off the switch when the wiring is...

This is a problem that has been reported twice before and we have also seen it twice at OnBike and twice on my own bike. At this time we do not have a definitive answer. Here is where we are at with the problem. It seems to be mostly with older chargers and new batteries both 10 Ah and 14...

Hi Notty All you need to do is replace the current 200rpm motor wheel with a 250rpm motor wheel. This will give assistance to about 16mph. We also have users using the 300rpm 20” getting assistance to 20mph. Though these motors are very heavy on the battery though! The motor wheels cost...

Please note that the current Forza can be derestricted. There were a few models in the last couple of years that could not be derestricted on the controller but even these can still be derestricted by changing the motor wheel. The current Forza has Marathon plus tires as standard. We do not...

Sorry I forgot to say who I am Regards Andy OnBike Director OnBike Electric Bikes - The UK's Electric Bicycle Specialist

Choices and batteries Hi Martin If you still have the Forza I would have to say your best and cheapest option would be a new battery. The new batteries have a greater capacity (14Ah as opposed to the older 10Ah). There is also the option of “parallel wiring” the bikes which can give up to...

Many new nodels on there way! Oh Yes. Emotion do have some really nice bikes coming very soon. We haven’t posted anything yet as they are not yet available we prefer to wait until we can supply before announcing to much. However there are some very special and ground breaking models coming. We...

Hi Reg We have several customers with a similar condition. We sell lots of different bikes and I have to say that the Ezee chopper would by far be the best bike to try. Having 20" wheels and a 14Ah battery it is the best hill climber I know of by a long way. The bike is only assisted to 13...

Oh yes I forgot. There certainly will be the fancy dress ride through the streets.

No indeed not. The event was started by Pete who wanted to show the world that electric bikes had "come of age" and that they could be used as a practicle form of transport. It has been strange how the racing side has always been talked about so much more than the other events such. In fact if...

Tour De Presteigne is now confirmed as 8-9 May. The website will be updated in the next few weeks. There is no racing this year instead there will be a "treasure hunt" type competition. Hopefully there will be lots of new bikes to see :D For those that wish to see "what their bike can do"...

My vote Being as distributors are allowed to vote I thought I would add my vote here. We distribute Emotion (Panasonic based ), Ezee (hub based ), Wisper (hub based ) Monark ( Panasonic based ) and have sold Tongxin motors with various batteries ( similar to the kit used on the Cytronex). I...

Hi Bob You are not far from our Kidderminster shop. We have a large range of bikes on demo including Wispers, Emotion(Panasonic based) and Ezee bikes. We are happy for people to come and give the various systems a good try out. We have lots of hills around us including a 1 in 6 under a mile...

You have mail

Hi Nick Phil has been running two old batteries in parallel for some time and it seems to work well. He uses 2 schottky diodes to current balance the batteries and to stop one battery trying to charge the other. With the new batteries diodes are not needed as the BMS balances the batteries...

The warranty is 1 year. We have run out of the first batch and are expecting the next batch in 12 weeks. They come in either sliver or black. They can be charged with the standard LiPoly charger. We also have 4Amp chargers now to allow for quicker charging. They cost £525 which may change...
