    Hello from Bulgaria

    To keep the pressure on the caps I used M4 nuts and bolts. Was told on the Endless Sphere forum it would be wiser to use nylon bolts in case there was a crushing accident and the steel bolts could cause a short and fire. I think if any battery is going to be in a accident where it is crushed...

    Make my bike seat cover nicer

    My grandson's seat on his balance bike has to much padding he couldn't get his leg over the seat or touch the floor. I took the padding out of an old seat and covered with faux leather. I used the two part epoxy resin from poundland. You will need to get a smoother finish on your foam or the...

    Update on N.I. e-bike regs.

    So how can DVLA just say "you can register a EAPC " as it says on Gov.NI no type approval, no MOT ? It can't be a L1-ea/L1-ea because they need type approval. Sent from my T1005 using Tapatalk

    Update on N.I. e-bike regs.

    Have DVLA Swansea used a waiver to allow EAPC's to be registered without certificate of conformity or MSVA ? No mention of these on Gov.NI just £55 reg fee,proof of identity and insurance. It does say it would need type approval if fitted with a throttle. No MOT required Have they made a new...

    Update on N.I. e-bike regs.

    Yes driver licencing. Has Anne set set some sort of precedent ? Wait until Boris or one of his cronies gets a hold of this. Gov.UK is the law 250w maximum plain and simple. Not some EU pages and pages of nonsense about how long a motor can run at 250w without overheating. Sent from my T1005...

    Your not wrong Tommie but try telling that to the powers to be. If they can't sort this how can we trust them to sort anything. Sent from my T1005 using Tapatalk

    Update on N.I. e-bike regs.

    So if you register your bike in N.I without CoC or M.S.V.A you still won't be 100% legal. Sent from my T1005 using Tapatalk

    Update on N.I. e-bike regs.

    And my other question how can The N.I. government give a clear path to regeistration without CoC or M.S.V.A. and they cannot give an E.A.P.C the same freedoms as us ? Sent from my T1005 using Tapatalk

    Update on N.I. e-bike regs.

    My objection is not the law in N.I. It is that if I or anyone else wants to visit N.I. from the R.O.I, England,Scotland or Wales on a E.A.P.C. they will have to register here first which you know if you want to register a kit bike here requires a M.S.V.A test £80 or CoC for new bikes. In Teds...

    Update on N.I. e-bike regs.

    N.I ebikers seem to have been given bye when it comes to registration Gov.UK says you only need £55 registration fee and insurance. If you want to register in England,Scotland,Wales or R.O.I. You will need a certificate of conformity (don't know if all manufacturers can supply one) or a £80...

    Update on N.I. e-bike regs.

    As far as I'm aware to register a L1e-a in N.I. all you need is £55 registration fee, insurance certificate and no mot. If you wanted to take your EAPC to N.I. from England,Scotland or Wales can you apply for registration the same way or would you need a certificate of conformity or MSVA ...

    Newbie - Advice required on conversion legals please?

    I think most vendors hate it along with the manufacturers because its the only way to do a fair range comparison between different makes and models. Pity they didn't put up a flight to save it must be a lot of customers that have it fit their own due to fitness or disability. Sent from my T1005...
