@Bonzo Banana I agree with your assessment of the current crop of BBC "journalists". They wouldn't know how to handle a real news story if they walked straight into a bank robbery. Their journalism is definitely not even handed and impartial any more. I do take issue with your assertion...

@neilhapgood This may assist BB limited space Cheers Tony.

Good alternative, but I wanted a higher current output for mine at 10amps.

Brian I did this with mine-not the prettiest addition but it's been working for 2 years now, and it's waterproof. Buck Converter Amazon do it:Amazon Cheers Tony

After spending 33 years in Australia where helmets are compulsory for all cyclists, I did no cycling over there. It is no fun in 38deg having to wear a helmet even on dedicated cycle paths, so I didn't bother. I had a motorbike instead and loved it (wearing a helmet all the time-it's totally...

The bike to which I referred was a Whoos bike about 10 years old with a mid-drive motor. I have the Tongsheng TSDZ2 fitted to my own bike.

@sjpt You can always fit something like this: https://www.amazon.co.uk/VGEBY1-Switch-Electric-Button-Combination/dp/B07WSYNMKK There are many different ones on the market. This is cheaper...

The best way is to create more hydro-electric, but I don't know what the Welsh and Scots would say about us flooding their valleys to power English houses.........

Just came across this thread and I sent an email to the Researcher at Bournemouth University (100 yards down the road from me) about something that has been troubling me for some time. I had a nasty fright yesterday when exiting the Talbot roundabout from Fern Barrow. I drive a Nissan...

When there's a gusty headwind I use it with care and vary the assist.

I couldn't agree more. Sorry to hear yours was stolen. The throttle is an absolute essential for me (and many others) I can be downright dangerous at busy traffic lights wobbling all over the place when starting off as the lights change, with the throttle I am usually off first and straight...

This picture is from when I first assembled the bike, my beautiful EOS is sadly no longer mine, the fuel bills were getting unmanageable 18mpg if I was lucky! The wife decreed "it will have to go". Happy wife, happy life (so they tell me) so I bought the Leaf. The bike is looking a bit...

@Wheelie Lots of good advice on here for you. I fitted my TSDZ2 a couple of years ago, bought from Whoosh, excellent service from them. I use a bike rack (towbar)on my Nissan Leaf to transport my last century Specialized Crossroads bike. I am a fairly fit 72 year old and have no difficulty...

My throttle works ...as a throttle. No pedalling at all required. I use it for starting off on gradients and at dodgy intersections to avoid wobbling. It's a Tongsheng kit purchased from Whoosh and came as standard. It's a great safety enhancement, do I care if it's 100% compliant with...

You need to tell us whereabouts you are. I'd happily solder it for you if you are Bournemouth/Poole area.

Tony/Andy Thanks for your help with Vaughan's bike, I received the rotor yesterday, will attempt fitting Wednesday at the Men's Shed.

The mains supply is pretty well regulated here in the UK, compared with many other countries. I have rarely seen the supply drop below 220v and never seen it go above 250v. The vast majority of the time it will be rock steady at between 230-240v. There will be larger variations outside urban...

No longer required to remove the chainring assembly, finally managed to get the armature/stator off the bike. Thanks all!

There is one in the Men's Shed (Southbourne Bournemouth) where my friend Vaughan (his wife's bike) and I go on a Wednesday but it is just a couple of millimeters too small-always the way, ain't it.....

It's from a friend's very old Whoosh step-through pedelec. Tony
