What a coincidence! I am sure that you will contact them in advance and explain your need to test ride the bikes up Telford's hills and not just pootle about in the car park.

Oldmasons, There is plenty of choice in your price bracket, such as the Oxygen S-Cross Step Through, various FreeGo, Wisper and Woosh bikes etc. Do make sure to specify the highest ah battery available.

arthur49, This thread may help you: http://www.pedelecs.co.uk/forum/threads/battery-replacement.32078/ A re-celled 15.6ah battery using Boston Power Swing cells from Jimmy at Insat would cost £285. You may think it preferable to put this money towards a new machine. Only you can make this...

Mr P H Grigorian, Before you splash the cash on another unsuitable bike for your particular requirements, I suggest that you visit an electric bike dealer who stocks a broad range of different manufacturers machines for you to test ride (uphill) first. From your locality in West Wales you will...

UPDATE-2 I have just been out for a swift 8 mile run before breakfast, since fasted exercise is more efficient at reducing the excess pounds or kilos: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/health-fitness/body/exercising-empty-stomach-secret-weight-loss/ Re-celled 36v 21ah battery using Boston Power...

Very recently bought a top quality exercise bike for use when the weather is bad. It is not cheap at £549 (£599 normally) but it is worth every penny. There are only 5 star (88%) and 4 star (12%) reviews on Amazon. There is a £50 discount available until Monday 6th August if the bike is...

Thanks for the replies.

UPDATE Insat kept me fully informed and then returned my re-celled battery after 4 working days, which I think is pretty good. Jimmy, Cem and Mary are all very helpful and accommodating. I can thoroughly recommend the re-celling service from Insat if you are ever in the market for a replacement...

I don't know whether this the right part of the forum for this post. I have a Polar-compatible heart rate chest strap (5.3KHz) and I need a cheap heart rate monitor/watch to communicate with it. I am NOT in the £500 to £1000 fitness tracker market! I don’t want any other function other than...

My 2012 FreeGo Eagle’s 17.5Ah battery was dead as a dodo. I contacted FreeGo and was told that their present batteries are 15.6Ah and use Samsung Grade A cells. This replacement battery would actually have more capacity (range) than my original because of improved cell technology etc. The cost...

jhruk, That is an excellent download from Schwalbe. Many thanks. I have recently purchased some Schwalbe Road Cruisers to replace the original knobblies: Schwalbe Road Cruiser 26X1.75 Tyre with Puncture Protection 750g (47-559) - Black: Amazon.co.uk: Sports & Outdoors

This forum is probably a cleat-free zone, with a few exceptions. I think you would be better asking this question on a general cycling forum, such as CTC: CTC Forum • Index page

Whilst I agree that in general it should be a matter for the courts to decide, it should be pointed out that it was David Blunkett who signed the UK-US treaty in 2005, without any debate having taken place in Parliament. Many people in the UK feel that this treaty is skewed unfairly in favour...

d8veh, That is extremely generous of you. I must go away and do my sums. I think I need a bike stand (Park Tool?) as well. Your latest conversion with the Oxydrive kit does not seem to lacking in power or speed. Thanks for all your technical help to myself and others on these forums...

d8veh, Thanks once again. I would be using the Oxydrive sensor from that kit, not the Daahub. My Hollowtech BB is push fit, possibly Shimano BB92: Shimano Press Fit BB 92/89.5mm - The Bike Chain, Online Cycle and Bike Clothing Shop Video: Fit A Hollowtech Crankset - MadeGood | Free bike...

eddio, Just remember: :D But seriously.... d8veh, I am contemplating securing the 5 magnet plastic Oxydrive PAS, possibly via a thin plate if necessary, to the smallest chain wheel. I have no idea of the relative dimensions. Would this work? This is my Shimano chainset...

d8veh, Thanks for the rundown on the various hub kits. Cable operated disc brakes are fine but I much prefer the Giant Anthem's hydraulic ones. Also, the basic bike is much lighter to start with compared to the average electric bike. Let's hope somebody finds a cheap(er) and easy solution to...
