    Oxygen S-Cross Intermittent power loss

    Following a ride to work in the drizzle last Friday morning my Oxygen S-Cross CB has developed an intermittent power fault. The symptoms are: Assistance will fade or cut out altogether when riding Turning the system on/off sometimes rectifies the fault, or it will cut back in of its own accord...

    Gaadi double-ended inner tube

    Seems a novel solution. I'd be worried about how easy it is to thread around the wheel. I swear by schwalbe marathon plus tyres. I was sold by this YouTube review: particularly the part at around 1.32. since having them 2 yrs I've only had 1 puncture from a 2cm shard of metal. Other than that...

    Bafang 8fun BFSWX02 36v 250w technical drawings

    Does anyone know where I can find the specification for a Bafang 8fun BFSWX02 36v 250w rear hub motor? The closest I can find is this here: http://www.elifebike.com/upfile/dtpic/2012/8A/RK1S.8TKFU/8NQF6B_EWH14.jpg But that is for a BFSWX02-P. I'm not sure if that makes a difference. I'm...

    I'm looking to buy an Oxygen S-Cross CB

    The service is great, they offered to fix the wheel for me if I dropped in it, but I'm at work when they're open. "Sports mode" is the one that isn't in Oxygen's manual at gets me to 20mph... :oops: From the factory there are 6 assistance settings, and you can also select 3 power modes (Eco...

    I'm looking to buy an Oxygen S-Cross CB

    I own an S-Cross CB and have been commuting 16 miles each day on it for the last month. It is a great bike, and very similar in feel to the S-Cross MTB. I am a great lump and have had no problems stopping with mechanical disks in dry and wet weather. I have had two problems so far: The joint...

    Reliable commuter machine + Sheffield Hills

    I wouldn't buy blind - too expensive to just try and fluke it. Any bike which I can actually go to a shop and see/try will be towards the top of the list!

    Reliable commuter machine + Sheffield Hills

    Thanks for your replies. None of the bikes suggested were one I was thinking of! But that's good, I clearly need to do some more homework. These are the bikes I was thinking of: Woosh Big Bear Ebco UCR 60 Kudos Eiger Smarta Gt8 Would any of those be inappropriate? I will definitley visit...

    Reliable commuter machine + Sheffield Hills

    Hi All, I've been commuting 9 miles to work for the past two years on regular bike. After being clipped by a van, having my first child on the way, and a continuing desire to live, I've been trying to find ways of improving my commute. I don't want to get a car, and thought an ebike was worth a...
