As a mobile app developer I have to pull you up on a few of those claims, flecc: - 95% of the population have coverage. It's not geographical coverage, and it's not guaranteed good coverage all the time because mobile cells 'shrink' depending on how many people are using them (in London - a...

A takeaway AND a working battery? Life is good.

I'm sure someone will be along soon to explain the pros. . . . . Oh oh oh - I've got one, I've got one! - being able to negotiate a better trade deal with other countries than the EU can. Yeah, I'm sure that's an easy one.

Ah, I misread emotion for ebikemotion. Ignore my earlier post, and apologies for not being able to help.

I'm sure some of those companies will resume shipping to the UK once they've had a chance to digest the finer details. However, it helps to put your EU head on - do I really want to ship to 27 countries with no friction, and then go the extra mile and ship to the 28th one with extra hassle, when...

If it's under warranty, isn't first port of call the warrantor, and ask their advice before opening it up?

> They're much safer than these silly bike hats which don't protect the sides or front, usually let in rain and quite a lot of them don't even have reflective areas. Cyclists generally need a bit more fresh air than a motorcyclist, since they're excercising more - hence holes for the rain to...

What colour is it flashing? Purple light = error, but not necessarily terminal. Download the app, connect via Bluetooth and find the error code.

Being primarily a service economy is fine as long as those services are required (which they currently are). Physical goods aren't the only thing of value in the world. However, as the banking capital of Europe cutting yourself off from Europe isn't smart. Follow that up with the double whammy...

But never quite as good as the outgoing system. A bit slower, a bit more expensive. A bit like taking a 15.5mph bike design, adding some extra wiring and an extra controller that absorbs a few watts, and ending up with a 14.5mph bike. Oh, and a revised pricing as of 1st Jan - 4% on RRP. That's...

You're quite right, they're pretty rare. The 2019 figures (RAS40004) are: Pedestrians hit by bicycle .. 379 of which: killed .. 4 of which: seriously injured (unadjusted) .. 122 seriously injured (adjusted)4 .. 132 My point probably wasn't made very well. It's not the...

The kinetic energy of a 25Kg speed pedelec at 20mph is around 2.5 times that of a 15Kg bike at 15mph. Push the speed even further to 25mph, and it's around 4 times the kinetic energy. The kinetic energy transferred to a pedestrian is what determines the amount of damage to them. Either speed -...

Not true: - road traffic deaths per month in 2019 is 146 (1752 / 12 months) - a jumbo jet (or equivalent) carries 300-500 people You're over-estimating by 270%. Quite likely to be true: - 4 pedestrians were killed by a cyclist in 2019 - 1 cyclist was killed by another cyclist in 2019 No...

If the invention is directed toward a universal solution that is considerably less than, say, £250, then it may have legs. But I can't see how you get to that universal solution without expensive cabling, control systems and awkward modifications. And that's probably the reason I'm not an...

Solved, I reckon. It's simply a second battery. For a considerable price, it has to be said, but available for ebikemotion bikes (Orbea, Ribble, Lapierre, etc), and Fazua-based bikes too (Boardman, Cairn, Canyon, some Cube models, etc).

SOLD! (can't actually see a way to remove the post. Apols.)

Used Orbea Gain F40 eBike for sale with integral ebikemotion X35 system. The frame is Large, which Orbea suggests is suitable for riders 5'10" - 6'3". Full dimensions can be found here: https://www.orbea.com/downloads/product ... 019-EN.pdf I'm happy to double-check any dimensions. For an...

Just to help (not having a dig, Neal ;)) : - PAS: Pedal Assist System (but can also be 'Sensor' in other posts) - SOC: State of Charge - BMS: Battery Management System - LVC: Low Voltage Cut-off

I can recommend Cycling UK (aka CTC -Cycle Touring Club - in the old days) for the personal cover and 3rd party angle. I've claimed successfully with their help. You get a decent magazine every other month, and it's a charity too.

Always review your insurance every year, regardless! It nearly always rises by more than inflation. By using comparison sites can you keep it roughly in line with inflation, risk, etc. Oh, and don't rely on a single comparison site - use at least two. They're known for also warping the offerings.
