    Bafang Max Drive bikes

    That's reassuring thanks. Not long to wait to now as DPD delivering around lunchtime apparently... As others have also said I'm impressed with the delivery time as I should have the bike within 24hrs of ordering. Did I read that the crank arms should be tightened up as well when fitting the...

    Bafang Max Drive bikes

    Well I've finally bitten after lurking and reading the Bafang max drive threads on here for a couple of days and have now joined the ranks of Greenway Cross buyers...:D What's not to like ? Especially the price, and coming from 2 previous hub motors (currently an Oxygen Emate MTB) I'm looking...

    Came across this in my search for a 2 seater Pedelec

    I prefer the podride, once I'd stopped laughing at it's cartoon-like appearance and having watched the video demo...I'd buy one.

    Stolen Cube Hybrid with BBS01 kit in Liverpool area

    Absolutely, we've been keeping an eye on all of those. I suspect they might remove the kit and sell the bike separately as it's unique. Thanks, fingers crossed but likewise not expecting to see it again. We saw the CCTV footage yesterday tracking the scumbag walk in bold as brass with coat hood...

    Stolen Cube Hybrid with BBS01 kit in Liverpool area

    I suspect you're right on both points there. Since it happened I've been removing the battery from my Oxygen MTB locked in the same area (but with a Kryptonite D-Lock). Jeff is offering a reward of £100 to anyone who can provide information leading to the recovery of the bike. Thanks. Phil.

    Stolen Cube Hybrid with BBS01 kit in Liverpool area

    Hi. I'm posting this for my colleague and friend Jeff who's recent Cube Hybrid/BBS01 conversion was stolen yesterday morning from our office car park/bike stands in Liverpool city centre. From security cameras we believe it was stolen around 10:40 am and the little bar-stewards must have used a...

    Looks good Planemo..and good idea with the pump mount too. Does the bottle/holder get in the way at all when turning the bars hard left..? Nice looking bike too..that an Oxygen kit..?..ignore that..just read your original post saying its an Oxy battery..

    The medium spring one I ordered only came back into stock recently so they must be selling a few at their prices. Here's the link for the shim below. It's described as a seatpost reducer so I didnt find it first time either..but thats out of stock now too since yesterday. I nearly bought the...

    Oxygen emate 3 months later....

    Thanks Ric but I've ordered the standard version (with the spring) as I've already got the disc version of the rack on my Ezee conversion and having measured the width between the Oxygen's mounting points I realised I didn't need the extra clearance of those wide stand-offs, They also make the...

    Here you go Ric... http://www.pedelecs.co.uk/forum/threads/to-shim-or-not-to-shim.21564/ I've just ordered the 27.2mm version with a 30.4mm shim from Bike-discount.de for around £45 delivered (also opted for the neoprene cover for a couple quid..). Luckily my mate's taken the 31.6mm version I...

    Oxygen emate 3 months later....

    Hi Pete. Thanks for your reply and photos. I've only just seen them and not sure why I didn't get an email alert as I am watching this thread... Anyway John from Oxygen sent me a stand as mine should have come with one too, and it is an essential bit of kit as you say. Good of Oxygen to throw...

    I checked last night and found the stamp you mentioned. It is 30.4mm as you stated, so I could have saved myself some hassle by checking properly first..never mind. I'll probably get the 27.2mm version of the NCX post at some point and shim it as discussed elsewhere by James.

    This arrived today :)

    Also happy to report all good from my experience of the Oxygen so far. My Suntour NCX post turned up finally from Bike24 and it's very slightly too big for the seat tube...Doh..! I'll send it back and try my old Post Moderne Cushy for now, as that should fit ok. Should have gone for the 27.2mm...

    Tow bar bike carriers

    +1 for the thule 916. We've had ours nearly 2 years now for my wife's Juicy Classic and my Giant conversion and both mount and secure very easily and are rock solid on the move. Its such an easy carrier to use, if a bit heavy to carry, but weight = quality in this case. Its expensive but imo...

    to shim or not to shim?

    Hopefully it'll fit ok. Do you know when your Cube is coming..?
