:eek: Lucky you didn't say the temperature in Celsius... Tomorrow I am going to have to dress warm it is only going to be 20°, yes C not F. I can see why off road bikes with knobby tyres are so popular in that area. I am thinking two wheel sets: one slick road set to get to riding area and a...

You have never owned a Bosch washing machine... :rolleyes:

Yes water is fine on a lithium battery. No water is not fine on a connected charger. Immersion in salt water is the recommended way to fully discharge and neutralise LiPo batteries I am guessing that it may be more complicated with Li-ion which are in metal cans.

I am guessing your rim is either 19C or 21C so tyres from 35 to 62 mm will fit

I think the screws at the dropout hold a removable plate. The photo isn't showing the joins.

Not legal, not fitted. I sold all mine to a forum member. Not useful on old bike or new because of superior PAS. I would like to build one of these however: Full twist throttle, 1000W motor and enough lipo to do say 50 km at around 45 km/h. Blonde or brunette, haven't decided that bit yet...

I hope the Chinese copy the handle bar buttons! They are perfection. And more/just as important than the spindle lengths is the choice of spider including a double chainwheel version. Now if a couple of well known Chinese motor makers that have standard BB mounting versions would just take...

Folding are lighter than wired. No steel wire...

Stuart... Throttles are dangerous! Not like a wheelie, that WAS a wheelie :p

I read that and so I only have sine wave controllers. The Mxus one is a little noisy the one I have now is dead silent except for loud regular "clack" noises when drawing full amps. At first I thought it was a pedal problem but no, just very loud noises coming from the controller box that have a...

The last time that river flooded it was on the 8 o'clock news, several villages were badly hit. Thunderstorms on mountains after hot sunny periods = flash floods. Today it was >30°C Yes. Probably a wee bit lower Wh average with a hub but that is down to my riding style.

For trade to work you need trust. I can see "Can't trust the English" becoming a popular phrase which only seems right after all those years of you lot not trusting the Germans, the French, the Italians...

If the motor has 250 W stamped or cast on it it is 250 W it doesn't matter how many Watts you actually draw. Your legal limit is that the motor must stop assisting at 25 km/h. 48 V is the best performance option it is also the maximum legal limit for voltage (nominative you will be over 54 V hot...

I'm feeling more "normal" than last year when I was learning the ropes and really giving it some welly I was down around 5.7 - 5.8 Wh per km once I got fit. flecc said I didn't even need a pedelec! But then there are those hills... :eek: I think during a normal ride when I am really needing the...

A what if? ride So my 20Ah battery was all charged up to 41.5 V time to try something new. I did my usual station run but left the assistance set to 5 all the way and tried not to pedal too hard. Kept the right cadence of about 70 and used the gears properly. Result 8.5 Wh per kilometer. Cool...

I see you haven't been reading my posts about GPS :rolleyes: I have been riding with a tablet (no sim) since last year. Oruxmaps, Strava, Google offline maps...

A 14 km each way (leisure) commute to the metro station which includes a 3.8 km climb on the way there and a shorter steeper climb on the way back. I do this about 2 or 3 times a week on average from November to March now but previously all year round. Most of the 3200 km between June 2015 and...

I was going to say "come over on a Thursday night and I'll teach you how to be moderately intoxicated" but he is English and that will never work with Spanish red wine... o_O
