I am glad you would recommend it! I have made up my mind. Thanks bro Best,

If I don’t overuse a throttle, would it be alright for the battery life? (I do like pedaling. I just want a bit of help by using a throttle.) What do you say?

Thanks for your answer. Thought using a throttle could even cause the battery to be ruined. I am not going to use it all the time. I do like pedaling. But sometimes when I ride a bike on hills, I want a bit of help. Best,

Thank you for sharing your experience. That’s exactly what I want a throttle for TBH. I am not gonna use it all the time. I like pedaling. I just want a little bit of help to pedal on hills. I can consider getting one now Best,

Hi, I have been riding a 250w ebike, Uni Moke(urban drivestyle). I just wonder whether having a throttle on a 250w ebike is really not recommended. According to what the company says on the website, it can make the battery life shorter. Has anyone used a throttle on a 250w ebike? Secondly I was going to upgrade my bike by reprogramming the controller(Bafang but I don’t know which model it is). But it turns out it is a bit complicated to me. Is there any place, such as ebike shops, where I can get some help around North West London? Any advice would be appreciated. Cheers,

Thank you for all these things. Now I roughly know what to do for my bike. Definitely it would be worth reprogramming. I think I can do this myself. Although I am not sure if I can manage other ways on my own, I see what you try to say. I might get some help from someone who can do this for me. I really appreciate your advice. Best wishes,

FYI, I did try holding down the + and - to change settings Sorry. I was wrong. I suppose this is the controller you meant. Thought it was a motor. I think you are right. The LCD seems a C961 like you said. (And FYI, I have tried holding down + and - to change settings but I could find the speed setting. )

Considering that the Motor is from Barang and the last picture (it is from the website), I assume the controller is also from Barang. Not 100% though since my controller is just covered by the company name.

You got the point!! I am glad you said all these things. That’s why didn’t want to register my bike. I rather get a motorbike. I also thought about adjusting something from the controller. I have seen a few ways on Youtube. But my controller is designed by Urbandrivestyle. I don’t think I can change the setting on the controller without their permission. How can I get more power without changing the motor? Cheers,

Hi folks, I have been using my 250w UNI MOKE ebike in London. I could’ve taken a more powerful bike but I just decided to take 250w one due to the UK e bike law. I have seen many people riding more powerful bikes around. Few of them are probably riding their bike illegally I suppose. Anyway I am thinking about upgrading my bike with a 500w motor. To ride a 500w ebike legally, what are things to be done? I do have a driving licence, of course. What else should I do? My google research says the bike needs to be registered as a moped. Should I just register it to DVLA? Is that all? If any one has some advice for me, I would really appreciate your help. Cheers,
