    Review of Argos £285 Folding Bike

    As I understand it, with a speed controller, the power supplied by the controller to the motor gradually reduces once you get above the "speed" for that PAS level. So on my Woosh Lishui controller, I was usually pedalling above the "speed" that is set for the PAS levels, as I increased...

    Mid-drive hybrid?

    For a long road / cycle path trip, wouldn't a hub drive be more relaxing (and less strain on the chains & gears and lighter and "bulletproof" from a reliability point of view) AKM 100 (2.1kg), KT controller and display, 36v 25 Ah battery Start off with something like a secondhand boardman...

    Battery Fires

    That sounds a great idea - is it very expensive to do ? That sounds very easy to do - 24v, 36v, 48v and 52v have distinct ports and chargers and people can't get it wrong. Idiot proof. What does this involve ?

    Review of Argos £285 Folding Bike

    I fitted a 7 speed DNP freewheel on my 6 speed folder and just left the 6 speed shifter (iirc you suggested it) and just don't use the largest cog. Needed a bit of messing with washers and stretching and indexing gears to get the wheel centralish. It completely transformed the bike (52/14t ->...

    Prices of the electricity we use to charge

    It was this rumour that North West Infidels, North East Infidels, etc used as a pretext for the anti muslim / anti mosque riots. Neither have the Manchester Airport suspects - I wouldn't read anything into it either way She was also arrested on suspicion of inciting racial hatred, which, if I...

    Don't be silly, she was arrested because her tweet was the first recorded instance of the false rumour that sparked the riots (ie that the perpetrator was a Muslim refugee that had arrived on a small boat and was on the MI6 watch list) Obviously the police wanted to see if she had made this up...

    Yosepower kits.

    Yes, on that post I had 2 links, one to a KT controller and one to a KT display - I was suggesting changing both together (it didn't seem too expensive, even including postage) - I wasn't sure if the pas sensor and throttle would fit though

    This one was just a few quid from topbikekit, so I included it (and a front light and a few tools) when i ordered the controller, there was no extra postage cost. https://www.topbikekit.com/34540cm-adjustable-mtb-road-bicycle-kickstand-parking-rack-p-532.html?zenid=9elhgtpmat6c1r6ggqq4rur880...

    Pedelec Nirvana

    Here it is - I have put on the throttle and brake sensor - can use the KT settings to make the throttle legal (ie not twist and go). Cabling is very messy - might have a try at tidying it up at some time. Battery (48V 20Ah) is a tight fit but it does slide on and off (this is the 20" frame)...

    Comfortable saddle for long distance?

    Yes, I have one of those and they do help. I recently got an old, but well maintained full suspension bike and moved the conversion kit to that (from an old Carrera Vulcan) and on longer road trips it is very comfortable and a plush ride and I come back from long rides without any aches and pains
