  1. So Mileage is just over 3000 miles. Here's a pic of the Electronic Control Unit, that seemed Globally Unavailable when *advised* it needed replaced. The Fault was actually the small red Hall Sensor pictured, The Cracked Plastic Disc pictured, containing Magnets, was also Replaced. I've ordered another one of each for safe storage and the future.. A Big Consideration Going Forwards, is that Parts like these may become unavailable, potentially making the whole machine useless without expert attention! The Hydraulic Brakes have been Flawless and are still As New. Its still on the original Brake Pads Too. I successfully applied a little loctite (pictured) to the tiny grommet inside both brake lever housings, as it would work its way out over months, meaning lever was getting nearer handlebars under braking. Also the Battery Housing&Rack needed Adjustment to solve a rattle going over bumps, took over an hour of work to reseat rack&battery Housing appropriately. The Front Mounted Motor hasn't needed any attention, I'm so pleased I went with this option of E Bike, it's better for Weight Distribution, and has not presented a Single Grip or other issue, also, and importantly, when a Motor is rear hub mounted, it makes the rear hub/axle assembly far too busy. Everything is Great when things are new folks, but sooner or later problems arise, I'm so thankful. This is a Great Machine, Sturdy and Reliable. Thankyou Woosh!

  3. Yah that's a conservative estimate, it's been awhile since I checked, no idk if it was in km or miles... Providing I can remember how to access that screen, I will update the Review accordingly...
  4. Five Year Review... I'm Very Happy with this Machine. I wanted something as British as possible, reasonably priced, and Durable, This is what I Got for £1249 with the Bigger Battery.. The Battery seems every bit as good as new at holding charge. Recently I had to replace the rear wheel, which was quickly supplied at a reasonable price by Woosh. A couple of years ago the main pedal spindle was swopped. It's had two new rear tyres&tubes. I've replaced the rear cogset/freewheel for a DNP 7 Speed (£30) which means less frantic pedaling at full pelt! The worst problem was it stopped powering the bike when pedaling. However the throttle switch still worked. This was worsened by incorrect diagnosis that it was the ecu in front of the battery, most troubling, resulting in two hour + intensive research.... Stripdown&Inspection.... Turns out it was simply the hall sensor that detects the small spinning magnets in the plastic disc... £11 from Woosh, I also replaced the plastic disc, £20.. I never use it in the Rain, very occasionally get caught out in a shower for a few minutes, and have no complaints, the machine has around 2000miles recorded... It still feels very new to Drive... I'd encourage anyone to learn to do your own research&repairs, The Local Halfords&Bike Shop are untrustworthy, both in knowledge, advice and sales IMO Would highly recommend Woosh... https://wooshbikes.co.uk/ Thank you for Reading, Jesus is Lord Shalom

  6. Well nothing stops one saying what one wants to say.. It's more a question of actions and potential outcomes.. Generally it's not a good idea to peeve them off, if they have a chat, likely best chat, and comply, then continue your day elsewhere.. They are folk employed with orders themselves, I disagree with the drone use in Britain, fact is most governments (who are expert at enforcing their will in the midst of unexpected circumstances..) will be rubbing their hands together at the opportunity to flex their authoritarian muscles.. Fact is Any smart fone can have its mike switched on by any modern government, or individual in the know (few folk) All these alexa siri etc apps/gadgets could be listening all day long.. Any smart fone reveals its location all day every day. Mainstream Media (msm) cannot be trusted at all, indeed it was msm journalists who persuaded the Govt to strict measures.. Lastly, it emerges today the U. S. has subsidised £3 million research, in Wuhan, over the last Ten Years, into....... Corona virus Also their are two massive virus research labs there... Got to be a connection.. Revere The Lord God Almighty Seek Him Know GOD knows Peace No GOD no Peace Shalom
  7. Hey everybody The News is I bought a Woosh Big Bear 36v 17ah for £1249 Arrived yesterday and I have done around a dozen miles or so I like it very much It was exceedingly well packed and pristine If anyone has any questions please feel free to ask me here or pm me A Big Thanks to everyone who helped me see Clearly the Steps I needed to take and in what Direction
  8. Hey folks Thankyou so much for all your responses, you will be happy to hear both these are off the shopping list, now I know of all the other British Assemblers/Vendors and their more acceptable propositions.. It's Decision Time GOD give Me Wisdom I will report back once the new machinery is acquired Regards
  9. Yes Thankyou for those replies.. I am very pleased to learn of Woosh they look Great.. As do Wisper.. For the record the China £550 folder is sold in Argos currently awhile now, so I wouldn't have to import it.. Surprised at the dislike for Ezebike's, they look great, are competitively priced, British Made, warrantied etc etc also they come Set at 250w, apparently one would have to derestrict it, then get insurance etc to be able to use it on UK roads....... Does the mention of more Power intimidate you Anyhoo, I will report back here whence I acquire a battery bike Woosh are looking appealing
  10. Well, a sale, a purchase, and a pleasant discourse, my faith in human nature is restored, Thanks
  11. Howdy, looking to get my first ebike .. My mate has done colossal miles on Wispa Kalkhoff etc, ie 18k, and now is quite happy with his £550 china argos folder.. So now I must make up my mind, I have found these Ezebike https://www.ezebike.co.uk/product/ezebike-electric-mountain-bike-mens-mrk4-disc-brakes/ 1000w £1.3k They do have good selection of aesthetically appealing road bikes, but I think a mtb is wiser for me, being more stable sturdy, tho I wonder if the wider tyres would use more Oomph from the Battery? Thing is the China has 1 yr guarantee on battery, batteries are real cheap to replace, plus the whole bike costs less than Eg a replacement Kalkhoff battery.. The Ezebike is British and is strong on power, but pricey.. Just wanted simple feedback/experience has anyone had either, know of any similarly priced/powered ones they care to recommend
