Having covered 9,000+ miles on my ProConnect and another 5,000 on my ProConnect S feel that the status lines are rather limited. I certainly have FOUND my (electric) wheels!

What an awful update. What was the matter with how it was. Now it's gaudy, and takes far more space up for each message on my tablet. I DO NOT LIKE THIS! Someone should start a poll going - I would but haven't set one up before. Mike

Totally off topic but..... I notice the picture of your bike has a backdrop of a Fiat Ducato. Have you carried the bike in the back of it? I'm looking for a suitable vehicle to carry two Kalkhoff ProConnects in the back - out of the weather and wondered if something like the Fiat would be...

Anyone have experience with water ingress into handlebar control switch on a Kalkhhoff ProConnect / Agattu? We were out today and unusually got caught in the rain. (We're allowed to get wet but not the Kalkhoffs). My wife has a 2008 step thru ProConnect. When we returned to the bikes after lunch...

Think you're right. The front wheel is a 24 spoker. The ad says the rear wheel/hub was rebuilt by 50cycles recently for £100 and new gear change fitted for £35 and it looks like 36 spokes. Reckon my wife's Pro Connect from the same era was a variant, they must've started changing the step thru'...

Think this is a 36 spoke variety. We bought 2 Pro Connects around that time. Mine was a diamond frame with 28" wheels which were the 24 spoke variety. However, my wife's step thru Pro Connect had 26" wheels and 36 spokes. Touching wood, I've not had any problems with the 24 spoker after 7,000...

Thanks - an interesting site. Also looked at all traffic English Channel!!

Hi John. Welcome to the forum. Will keep an eye out for you - always good to bump into other pedelecs (tho' not literally!;)). We are often seen on the Castleman Trailway or Hurn Forest to Avon Country Park on our various Kalkoffs. We are based in Bournemouth. Mike

Agree with most of the other replies. My experience is the same, Slime's a waste of time and messy and the plastic Slime insert chaffes and cuts the inner tube. The only real 'solution' is Schwalbe Marathon Plus tyres or ones of a similar spec.

My wife and I both have had Kalkoff Pro Connect's for nearly four years now and I have always recorded our distances and battery performance/ recharges. We've covered about 6,500 miles and my battery has been recharged 61 times and my wife's 55 times. I generally recharge when 3/2 lights are...

Have travelled many hundreds of miles with a ProConnect diamond frame and Pro connect step thru' on the Euro916 ebike carrier. It's been excellent with absolutely no problems. Previously had another Thule carrier on which the ends folded inwards for storage. Again no problems and travelled...

All done - hope it's successful

WOW! Found the density of cyclist deaths in Bournemouth (21 cyclists out of a total of 49 deaths in the period) alarming!! Significantly higher 'hit' rate than Liverpool for instance. Around the A3040/A347 line into Bournemouth centre being particularly awlful (6) for what is a suburban road...

Hi Tara Thanks for all the info on weight etc. Think I might get one as well.

Hi Tara Can you give me some idea of the weight of the lock. I'm keen to keep our bikes secure, lock 'em up and seldom let them out of sight when we're out, but conscious of all the weight we always seem to be lugging about with us. Like the look of this as another line of defence.

Thanks David -excellent bike in as new condition. Been out on it and it's GREAT. Looking forward to next purchase :D

Can you pm me with contact details - I live in Bournemouth and may be interested myself or have a friend who might me Mike

Thanks for the heads-up info BigEd and the info not yet available on the web site. There's a couple of clothing items I'm wanting to replace. Aldi cycling offers will also not be far away - need to keep an eye on them.

Blackpanther Maybe a half-way house if you were considering them would be to buy just one (right hand) and then get a left if you had a good experience with it. The ebay ones aren't at any discount, and you have to buy the pair, whereas you may still be able to buy direct from Winkku and can...

My personal thoughts and musings. I've not had a good experience with these indicators, but what they did do was to convince me that rear view mirrors were a great idea and I then went out and bought some for both my bikes and my wife's - just simple rear view mirrors without the 'gimmicks' and...
