puncture resistant tyres
I'm running schwalbe LandCruiser 26x2.00, had to punctures in 600miles, first was a 6inch nail thro the sidewall and the 2nd was a sharp10mm bit of glass that I think most tyres would puncture with those type of punctures, regular checks have shown that many preventive punctures as the rubber is split and showing the yellow Kevlar band, I do a lot of rough surface and after a weekend I seem to find broken bottles every where. The Land cruiser run well with little drag, so good that I'm about to replace the battle scared rear.

Inverter for a motorhome to charge my bike
If you have leisure batteries fitted then I guess you would have a split charge really installed, I'd just use the invertors until the leisure battery showed a 50℅ discharge and then either simply go out for a drive to recharge the leisure battery or let it idle for an hour or so to top up the leisure battery to allow the final charge process. I'd simply would charge my ebike battery whilst I saw either sight seeing or going out for a drive

when to change disk brake pads?
- when to change disk brake pads?
eBay search for Tetro but pads.. I bought some Chinese cheapos just to try @ £1.99,. Amazing retardation and reduced finger effort than the stock pads and these are organic with copper particles- Looking for a reliable ebike to do the London knowledge on, please help!
But if the OP only did regular 1hr charges, wouldn't that upset the cell balance and reduce range/performance?- Good permanent repair?
Not mine, taken from another group- Good permanent repair?

Hi guys, Anyone advise me on how much slime to add to a 26x2.0 inner tube, 240ml seems to ring a bell but I am sure someone can help. Happy riding- Looking for first E Bike - Help Needed!
The Byocycle, city speed 20 is a very good folding bike, feels very well made and solid, battery is 36v 10ah and range is good, very comfortable with a sprung seat. Good value.- New to the e bike scenescene
Forgot to say, also have a Byocycle folder, 36v 250 hub 20in, nice comfortable around town bike that I hardly use now, maybe twice a month mainly for battery management so I am in two minds wether to sell it shortly as it really is not used at all and just taking up space.- New to the e bike scenescene
Hi all, got myself a new ebike sept 2016, used it most days since and really have been bitten by the bug, I am a keen 58yr old petrol head but I have lost my license until July this year and I simply had to stay mobile hence the reason the purchase of an ebike. I had been lurking on here for months looking for advise on the best styles etc, I would have loved to have been in a financial position to buy a lovely premium brand but had to settle for a new Chinese make, after looking at all makes, costs and what was the best deal, I settled for a Greenway e-MTB, 36v 10.4ah Samsung cells 350w 8fun hub 24s shimano JLCD Kingmeter display F&R discs Front suspension £639 Mods so far, Land cruiser tyres Slimed tubes Gel seat Suspension seat posts Good safe lightning. Today I did a 25mile commute to work, really no effort at all Barr a bloody puncture in the rear, green goo everywhere. Good job I took a pump, spare tube, 18mm spanner and two spoons, just incase.
