Some interesting ideas here. I'm sure there are lots of options (and more being developed as we speak). Excuse my ignorance (I'm no Techy!) but wouldn't something on a smartphone potentially be "chargeable" (Don't laugh if I've completely lost the plot - I only have a basic mobile phone!). The...

I'd be interested to hear other people's thoughts and experiences on Sat Navs designed specifically for cyclists. I currently use the Mio Cyclo and have found it invaluable. (Also can work as a car Sat Nav - to get you to the start of your route). The one I have is the Cyclo 300, which I think...

Hmmm, I guess the frog battery isn't one that is used much in the sort of bike I'm looking for. I think I will bite the bullet, and go for something completely different (I'm thinking Woosh's Big Bear!)

I have been using a folding e-bike for about 18 months but now want to add a non-folding bike to my collection - and one that has more power (for hills) and more Ah, for distance. However, I want the option of changeability between my current bike and the one I will buy - which means I am...

Many thanks for your help.

.....but I should have asked, will "any" 36v charger do, as long as it has the right connection/fitting? Or should I be getting one of a particular type? e.g. I've seen one described as "36v 2.5A DC 42V 10Ah"

OK. Thanks for that advice

Great - thanks. Its obviously going to be a matter of "giving it a go" - which I'm happy to do. I suppose knowing how much charge is left (as I cycle) isn't a make or break issue - but I might look into the £3 voltmeter, which, presumably I can fit onto the bike so I can monitor the situation...

PS: I should probably add (unless its obvious) that its the type of bike where the power only kicks in when you are actually pedalling (and switched on!)

Thanks. See attached. Hope that is what you were looking for - its the only "electrical" bit that is on the handlebars

Very many thanks for your reply. The LEDs being on all the time would be a problem (I like to know how much life there is left in the battery as I'm cycling). Presumably the best option would be to change the controller which, hopefully, is quite straightforward. Is there any way I can find...

I currently use a Frog battery, rated at 24v, 8.5Ah. I'd like to use a more "powerful" battery. I'm thinking that a 36v would give me more power (for those hills!) and a 10Ah would give me more "fuel" (I could go further). However, I'm not sure whether a straight swap would be possible. I wonder...

Based in North Wales and currently just on a (cheap) Tesco Shopper e-bike - although not much shopping being done. I use the quiet lanes in and around Anglesey in North Wales, usually just doing 20 mile loops. I have set out many of these routes on the RouteYou site, which are available to...
