Many are rightly asking for facts instead of the inane propaganda that both sides are issuing in the EU dabate. Here for once is an actual case which includes many of the consequences that will accompany Brexit and any attempt to limit EU migration. This isn't part of the propaganda, it's...

Since we all use electricity to charge our e-bikes, I thought I'd post this here as well: Something very close to home, FUEL PRICES. For those of you what dont yet know the new prices from April 1st, I've received mine: I'm electricity only and my current month bill for this 20th January to...

Hi, Just interested to know how many of us are using our e-bikes off road, and if so, What bike spec are you running? I'm currently running a GT aggressor with a BMS 500w rear wheel with a centrally mounted ( wedged in the central triangle!) 36v 20ah battery. I can honestly say I am...

Apple's all aluminium iMac amd Macbook shells are supposed to act as heatsinks - my tiny Sony VAIO P does the same - doesn't even contain a fan, heat dissipates through the aluminium shell. Apple should just fill them with oil. Desktop CPUs from Intel and AMD use too much energy, ramping up my...

Hi, I am trying to ascertain who is having issues with Impulse II motors on Kalkhoff or Focus e-bikes (both made by Derby Cycles). Personally, I had a first motor replacement after 900 miles (4 months, loud clacking/clicking noise), and then another failure at around 900 miles (7 months, very...

With a referendum in due course on whether we stay or leave, it's as well that all know what's involved in leaving, something that's certainly not true at present. For example, how many appreciate that we have to give two years notice to leave, or that we have to seek the agreement of all other...

...back into shape was the no1 thing that made me want to get back on two wheels (and the hills around where I live was the no1 reason to buy an ebike to let me achieve that original goal!). However one thing I’ve come to realise, and this is especially true the older you get, is that you can’t...

Bargain of the year if you have any money left after Xmas. I just checked the Oxydrive website for another thread and saw massive price reductions. £479 for a Bafang CST kit with 13ah Samsung battery. That's the same stuff that's on the Oxygen MTB that costs £1700! Stick it on a Carera Kraken or...

Of course it depends what you mean by "best". I've tried just about all the Ebay ones and the ones from Banggood. This one is outstanding. The first thing is how small it is - about 25mm diameter and maybe 50mm long. It has the jack that matches the 4-cell lithium packs, so if you already have...

Hi, I'm looking to get a tongsheng tsdz2 and I came across this alternative from "TOSEVEN" on psw power website: https://www.pswpower.com/collections/toseven-mid-drive-motor-kit-15 I asked them the difference/benefit/pros/cons and they replied that it has a different torque sensor and sent the...

Gtech known for their cordless vacuum cleaner, has just launched their first ebike. Notable features are 16kg weight, no gears, no chain but uses carbon belt, and custom bottle battery with builtin controller. Looking at the videos and comments it guess it maybe a torque sensing. It cost £1695...

The European Bicycle Manufacturers Association has filed an anti-dumping complaint with the European Commision.....claiming cheap chinese e-bikes are flooding the EU market. This is typical of the EU,if you cant compete,call it 'dumping' then put a massive tariff on the product to protect the EU...

With "only essential" travelling now mandated, I can't see our bikes, used purely for leisure, going out for some months. What is the best "lay-up" practice for my wife's bike, that one is an e-bike? I seem to recall talk of taking the battery SoC down to about 60% of its normal range?

Took delivery of my new Oxygen S Cross MTB. Ordered from e-bikes direct. Took me a long time to decide on this one as my next bike, which will be used mostly for commuting up to 40 miles a day, 4 days a week. Hopefully it will live up to my hopes an expectations. Slap bang in the middle of a...

Hi, I have a Kalkhoff Pro Connect 10 bike, purchased a couple of months ago. I have done about 1,000 miles with it so far, mainly on flat towpaths (so with the minimum assistance most of the time). Originally, some loud "clacking" noise came from the motor when I was using the maximum...

I was going to put this under the 'Conversion kits heading' but decided this heading as it is a cargo bike. My Kona Ute has been waiting for conversion and still is. The Ute in Burgundy finish. This arrived today well packaged up, 10 days from ordering. Opened up to find!!! Supposedly 48v...
