    Ebike in Torrentail Rain

    i shat the bed the first time i got caught in a torrential downpour on my Woosh Krieger, both for the sake of my electrics (which shrugged it off without a trouble) and for fear of taking a 36V 20AH hit through the bike to my knackers! thankfully i discovered my bike is weather proof, my...

    seeking advice choosing sub £1k very gutsy climber in Dutch style

    Woosh Santana CD, Woosh Big Bear LS, or Kudos Liberty Santana the only real option if you want chain drive otherwise it's a choice of the other two. Find the nearest showroom for both makes and go try them, these bikes are too expensive to buy without testing first.

    Krieger vs Zephyr-B

    Will the end of full speed throttles in January 2016 cause a rush to buy.

    it was the main reason i got mine now rather than waiting, not that i use it often but from standing start at traffic lights its great to **** off drivers who look at you like you slept with their daughter

    my 250w TCM crank drive motor combined with 15AH battery is listed as giving me 60-70 miles, i hit half way on the battery meter at 35miles or so and thats with some hills on my commute and my fat arse riding it at a push i could get 60 miles i think, generally using PA 3 out of 5

    Woosh Krieger Review

    lithium-ion batteries are fairly simple to look after, e-bikes are no different. do NOT do lots of small recharges (eats through charging cycles destroying the long term life of your cells) DO discharge to around 50% at least before charging (will give you the best charge cycle to battery life...
