Most likely okay, as they have the Bosch motor and battery. lf it dates from 2017 check the mileage, to see if the battery still has plenty of life. They can usually be charged around 500 times so a very rough estimate would be 10,000 miles, l doubt it will have done anything like that much.

The wheels on the Mirider actually measure 15" The controller will only select 14, 16 or 18" so it comes from the manufacturer set to 16"which makes the speedometer read about 8% high. So if you set it to 14" it reads around 8% low instead and the bike will go a bit faster. A 15" setting would...

Yes l guess a lot of parts will be generic Hopefully the O/P's battery can be repaired

This is the issue with a lot of these "online ebikes" from China No spares backup or after sales. lf it fails under warranty (and the ship isn't stuck in the Suez Canal) you'll get a replacement. After that you are on your own. That's why l bought my Ebike from a company based in the U.K., it...

Yeah the Onebot is half the price. However There's more differences (between the Mirider and Onebot) than just the controller, my friend has the Onebot S6 and l've got the Mirider 1 The Mirider is just better all round, the brakes are better, the seat post has more adjustment, the saddle is...

As above, hardtail or full suspension MTB if you plan to ride regularly on rough tracks. However the good ones start at £2,000 or £3,000 for full suspension.

Ah okay. So it's a bit different to mine then, l had seen these "3 speed" controllers and wondered how they worked. On mine you set the assistance level and then you can ride it as fast as you want, with the assistance provided, up to 15.5mph

l've found out how to change the wheel circumference on my Mirider 1. l was messing with the controller and l held down the "boost" button while turning on the power. The display then showed "OPTIONS 1" Nothing else happened so l turned off the power. l then discovered (and l don't know if...

You could try a lower assistance mode, maybe 2 rather than 3 On my Kona the cutoff is a bit abrupt in the maximum power mode.

On that bike? Highly unlikely. However you should be getting more than 14mph out of it. My Mirider does just over 16mph before the assistance cuts off and it doesn't pulsate at that speed, the assistance just fades until it's gone by 16.5mph l guess ebikes have come on a bit since yours was...

Last weekend l collected the missus's Mirider 1 The bike is for holidays in the caravan, hopefully l will be taking my Kona FS Ebike. However l've been having some fun on the Mirider, l did a 19 mile ride on Tuesday and tonight l decided to try one of my regular off road routes. It's obviously...

On my Kona (Shimano E8000) the remaining battery level never changes, so once it's down to (say) 2 bars it will never go back up. l assume the BMS is better on these Shimano/Bosch etc premium drive system. However the "remaining range" indicator will vary depending on what you are doing, for...

The O/P has never been back since posting their question two years ago. l've just bought a folding ebike and am having great fun on it, it's the Mirider 1 which costs £1500 However there's a similar looking one called the Onebot at half the price and reports say it's okay. l am really...

As above, give it away or sell it as an ebike, to convert it (to a non ebike) you'd need to replace the wheel for one without a motor, and then you'd have a heavy Klunker of a bike that nobody would want.

How many miles each way is your commute, and is it flat or hilly, on tarmac roads or a mixture of roads/tracks?

So, this afternoon l went for it and set out on my regular 18 mile loop. The first 3.6 miles were road and then l got to the first beast of a hill, a one mile partially out of the saddle climb, at the top the battery showed two bars (from 4) Hold the warp drive Scotty, we're experiencing a power...

l think that's just the prototype. The website looks very good, but l can't find a review of the trike. It would be interesting to hear from someone who has actually ridden one, they do 250w and 1,000w versions. l would imagine the 1,000 watt motor would be pretty much essential looking at the...

Sadly l didn't go out last night, the rain was going sideways and l just didn't fancy it. l'll try for tonight. The Mirider is billed as fully water resistant to IP65 so should be okay.

That's interesting, thank you. After l've done the "full speed" test l may well give your suggestion a try and see how far l get. l could try riding to see my friend who lives 25 miles away and a fairly flat route.

l wish !! The ride will be recorded on Strava so l will know the actual distance. l will give both results (the bike and Strava) Looking at the weather, l will probably be testing the water resistance of the bike as well
