    Bosch motor help advice

    GOOD! If you can get rid of the bike, do that, but talk to the people you used to pay, PayPal or credit card, they can wield a very big stick when needed. Do not get "pushed" into accepting anything at all by the seller..... Andy

    Who is Liable to Exceeding 15.5 mph on an E Bike

    Can you find that out for certain, I was unable to confirm that at all... Even then it still sounds horrifically expensive to me.... regards Andy

    Which Battery for a Raleigh Array E-bike?

    For such service, you should return the bike. Did you pay with a credit card or Paypal, as you should be contacting them as well. You only just got the bike, and this is probably the BEST service you can ever expect.....sadly! Andy

    Who is Liable to Exceeding 15.5 mph on an E Bike

    Anyone owning a de-restricted bike, and who is riding well above the 25KMH allowed, will be picked out easily by the eyes of the law. To be safe, the rider must say within the legal speed limits, so what has he gained from his de-restricted bike's performance? Basically nothing! And at any...

    Which is the best Android app for a sunny ride?

    Let us know how you get on please. Also, the modern "Ear Buds" without cables (BlueTooth) may also be a good option, but only on one side, as you need to hear the traffic still! Andy

    Controller and two batteries question

    We are both putting it simply and of course you are fully right. The dangers from these batteries for "newbies" are huge.... regards Andy

    Problem with Impulse 2 motor

    Many thanks. I found the following in both English and German versions, showing the types of problems the bikes had:- https://pedelecmonitor.wordpress.com/the-impulse-motors-from-derby-cycle-constructional-changes-in-2018/ The translation was done by a German speaker, as is obvious to the many...

    Which is the best Android app for a sunny ride?

    Make some sort of sun shield, that you can stare down into and put the phone on maximum brightness. Like a square tube, slightly bigger than the screen, and longer, say 10cm long at least, then mock something up with cardboard to see if that helps. If it works, buy some square plastic tubing...

    Controller and two batteries question

    But they never do! These Li-ion Batteries need to be most carefully handled. Between two batteries as the Op is talking about, is basically a specially designed BMS also needed! That bike fire on YouTube is according to a friend of mine, an attempt by the biker to do just that. You can even see...

    resurrecting old ebikes

    Its certainly possible to do, but you need to be a relatively good DIYer, have a reasonable tool kit and access to a MIG/MAG welder IMHO! Its a labour of love, and if you do not add the cost of the hours you will need, it can be a very cheap way to get mobile again on an electric bike, one of...

    Problem with Impulse 2 motor

    Sad. The Mileage is IMHO, not very high at all..... Which manufacturer makes the motors, or is it possibly their own make? Andy

    Power expectancy and Wattage.

    Maybe I explained it in a difficult to follow manner, I may need it to be more explicit, so see if this helps:- "I only pick on rude people after they have been rude to me!" I may make general comments of my opinion, as everyone is allowed one, but it appears that certain sensitive folks...

    Broken derailleur

    Safer! My wife believes that swimming in the Rhine river as a small child, with all its pollutants then, allowed her to "develope" fully at a later age!!!!;);););) Maybe....... The Thames was also badly polluted at the time, with basically few living organisms for a great many years, from...

    Power expectancy and Wattage.

    The MAJOR DIFFERENCE IS, that I NEVER address someone directly, until they are rude to me first!!!! Look back! And if you, or anyone else, takes onboard a general comment of mine, addressed to no one personally, that sort of makes the comment tend to look far more accurate! No smoke without...

    Broken derailleur

    Luckily for you, you are apparently uninjured. Such a happening could even throw you in front of a car or worse!! Your luckiest day maybe? Andy

    Power expectancy and Wattage.

    I have ridden them many times, but never wanted to waste my money on one as I have seen what can happen to the bikes, especially Bosch and especially once the guarantee is up! Bosch treats its customers very badly over here in Germany, the way the various parts are coded and communicate with...
