I think the alternative to the standard motor car they are most interested in is the SUV. me: what car does Rishi Sunak drive? ChatGPT: As an AI language model, I do not have access to real-time information, and my training only goes up until September 2021. Hence, I am not sure what car...

Simple microphone and an Arduino should do it; 'faster', 'slower', 'whoa there boy' is about all you need. (Of course, it will be pretty obvious how to hack into that system.)

Probably best to post some photos of bike and battery, especially any labels on the battery and the electrical connections between battery and bike.

Welcome, enjoy reading; and you should have some interesting questions later.

You don't say how and where you want to ride it. You'll may well do much better with https://wooshbikes.co.uk/?santana3. The Cryusher doesn't mention weight in the specs that I can see, but looks as if it may be rather heavy.

If there is nothing on the label to indicate the battery rating and you can't find its specs online it will be difficult to test. You'll find out when you connect it up on the bike and see how quickly power drops off on full assist mode. If it was a fairly cheap battery it almost certainly will...

Good luck with it. It must be a record for a first post: 5 pages of responses, almost all relevant and on topic.

Looks like a petrol lawnmower motor to me ...

You haven't said what you want the bike for. Look at Woosh (https://wooshbikes.co.uk/). You might count them as an 'internet' retailer, but they will give better advice and service than almost all local bike shops. You won't get the best bike ever, but you will get a decent quality one at a...

Halfords are better for test rides than any other bike shop I've come across (not many). But probably still won't give much choice of which ones are available for test.

ho;; Thanks for the clarificaiton. If I'm walking up a steep hill I'd be proud to reach the 3.7 mph even if being pulled by a powered bike, so I guess the difference won't worry me too much. I almost never use the walk assist on either our tandem (XF07) or solo (Bosch); partly because it...

The basic rules for legality are: * Motor must have a nominal continuous power of maximum 250w (lots of leeway in the words 'nominal' and 'continuous') * Motor may not assist beyond 15.5 mph * Motor should only assist over walking pace (?4mph?) if the user is pedalling (lots of confused...

Not sure of answer to OP, but I (and many many others) agree with you on that point. (from a walking point of view)

5 1/2 hours at 1.87 amps (constant) looks like 10.3 amp hours. How does that reconcile with the '5.329 amp hours added'

Yes, from the thread title 'Local Cop Clampdown?' I wasn't sure if it was a clampdown on illegal ebikes, or a clampdown on your local cops (for example, if you live in London)

£700 is pushing it for a new electric bike; its very unlikely to have a worthwhile guarantee whatever the sellers say. (previous post got in as I was typing. I agree conversion is a good way to go; but even with a good 2nd hand bike you'll have difficulty getting under £700 total with a decent...

Probably be fairly easy to fit, you will need a crank puller and maybe a special spanner to remove the bottom bracket. You may have issues if brake or gear cables or pipes are routed under the bottom bracket. You could have to reroute them, and possibly grind off existing guides. At a guess it...

The mileage is likely to be genuine. A battery will almost always appear to take full charge; that just indicates that it has got to the appropriate voltage. However, 'full' is likely to be much less than it was new. It will probably have a much lower range than it did originally, and might cut...

Yes, that's their expertise.

I don't think Swytch are bust, but from many reports their customer service is rather broken. Your older pedal sensor may not be compatible with the new Swytch kit, so you haven't completely ruled that out.
