That is almost like having to drive a new car in first gear at no more than 1000 rpm despite it being advertised with a 100mph top speed. The bike motor should be capable of taking any power humanly possible without damage. You are lucky you are able to ride without power where you live

Canna do it Captain - the dilithium crystals are flat oot

I Like your suicidal approach to roundabouts at about 18 mins!

smart wheels!

Don't forget also you cannot "force" energy back into the battery at the same rate you draw from it; you can perhaps draw 15 amps or more on discharge under heavy load conditions, but the battery will only allow a charge rate of say 2 to 3 amps. So to replace the discharged energy could take...

I thought I saw something similar at Willen Lake in Milton Keynes this summer, but it was not obvious if they were electric bikes - the rear shroud design looked very similar. There seemed to be various drop off and pick up points over MK for those with the appropriate "pin" number or cell...

I use this on my car, have checked it against calibrated garage gauges and it is totally accurate. It holds the tyre pressure reading until you press the button on the side to release the internal pressure and reset the needle to zero, so there is no rush to read the gauge whilst on the valve...

Don't forget about yourself as well as the bike. Link attached to windchill calculator, especially when going into a headwind! http://www.srh.noaa.gov/epz/?n=wxcalc_windchill

Be careful if you grease anything such as brake cables or pivots. At low temperatures the grease can become very viscous and almost set hard, so the first time you apply the brakes they will be difficult to apply, or even more likely difficult to release. The RAF had to apply a special grease...

Its a light but not as we know it Jim...

And your machines were also calibrated in metric RPM

Years ago ('85) we had a stealth labrador, matt black non-reflective finish. Taking her for off-leash walks on our local airfield she was utterly invisible. So I made a collar with two (what were then) high power yellow LEDs and a small battery pack. I could then see these two yellow streaks...

Try a band of "Gorilla Tape" around the handlebar where you intend to fit the light - this gives a grippy surface rather than a chrome or polished paint surface. Then use cable ties to anchor the fitting on as tight as you can make them - should give a secure fixing especially for something as...
