    Oxygen S-Cross CB or Wisper 905 torque mk2.

    the easy thing to do with the oxygen is tp fit the supplied throttle (easy) and then when starting off on hills just use it to get wheels turning. Really simple

    Freego Eagle - 2013 Model

    although I have bought a new bike I have kept my 6 yo Eagle as a winter bike so may consider a new battery so would be interested to hear how you get on

    New to Ebikes

    totally agree with Eagle, they are a great value bike and with the 27 gears I find they allow me to cycle more with low power or without altogether

    Oxygen MTB annoying rattle – fix.

    JP there is a way to actually tighten the battery. Dale at SYEB showed me how to do it. If you give him a call he may be able to help you and explain better than I could.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    sorry Flecc don't quite understand why a national tax on sales needs to be complicated. I vaguely remember purchase tax, but surely that's all that vat is. One tax to cover all UK and also online sellers with no exceptions. Should not be too complicated, but then again we are talking about...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    you may be right but would it need to be complex in the uk. Just thinking that USA has many different states and jurisdictions etc. It should not be difficult to keep it simple.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    maybe when we leave the EU we can get rid of VAT and instead apply a sales tax which everyone pays. I think they do something like that in US. Prob much less bureaucracy

    Freego Eagle - 2013 Model

    my 6year old Eagle is the same in terms of torque but still goes well on flat. I recently got a quote from Insat for battery to be recelled at a cost of £285 including collection and del. That was for latest technology in batteries. One poster on here Eaglerider had his done and I think ended...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I do believe we should leave the EU. The people in this country never voted to join the EU. It has been forced on us by scheming politicians. I cannot see how it can be so hard to come to sensible trading arrangements with Europe without being a member of the club. They have what we want we...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    that's a bit rich coming from you. Someone who thinks that everyone who voted to leave is a fascist and a racist. I won't take of any notice of anything someone as bigoted as you says.

    Battery charging for the occasional rider

    is it too simplistic to say that if a full charge = 30 miles the lifetime of the battery at 800 charges should equal 24000 miles. I suppose there will also be an age factor to take into consideration, ie natural deterioration of cells

    Battery charging for the occasional rider

    the manual for my Oxygen states that when charging battery it should not be unplugged until fully charged, which is what I tend to do anyway, but am curious as to reasoning behind this. Also when it states that battery can be charged for, say, 800 cycles is this the amount of times it is put on...

    Careers vengeance hard work pedalling!

    Hi Rick I know just what you mean. As other posts on here state a lot of the treacle/drag feel is down to the extra weight of the hub and battery. I have a Freego Eagle for 6 yrs and found exactly the problems you state. I have just changed to an Oxygen S Cross and am now able to ride much more...
