I have a Nexus 7 as well and I'd hate to be without it, use it probably 2-3 hours a day, every day. I'm on my second Nexus now (Hubby still uses my first one) so I've used one daily for about 4 years. You can still get new Nexus 7 or refurbished with 12 months warranty on EBay UK for around £90...

And who, pray, would replace them?

I agree with you about the forum - it has helped me loads.:) Let us know how you get on with the battery and good luck with it.

Good that you are sorted and thanks for getting back to the forum - it helps us all. I use Google Drive and have pasted your information under my 'Electric Bikes' folder for when I need a new battery, so thanks again.

That'll be 25 years down the line for me then!:rolleyes: In fact I won't ever have to lube my bike cos I probably won't be around anymore:( We have one of those little oiling machines as well, don't know why I bothered!:oops:

I passed a lycra clad guy on a mountain bike a few weeks back. I was on my sit up and beg Juicy bike and I felt so bad for him that as I said "hello" I almost added "sorry, electric bike"! Just a few miles up the road another lycra clad guy with gynormous thighs passed me before I even knew he...

Apologies, I'm thinking of another Alan - with a Big Bear.:oops::rolleyes: Silly me!

I got my bike about the same time as Alan but I don't doubt I have done nothing like the mileage that he has done! I found this an interesting point in the Sheldon Brown article: "New chains come pre-lubricated with a grease-type lubricant which has been installed at the factory. This is an...

You could test ride a Juicy Bike whilst your there Kevin (I have no connection to them either, 'cept I have got one and it's rather nice!:D)

Individual circumstances Eddie.:) We are fair weather riders and water rarely gets near our bikes (unlike you who rides most of the time through mud!). Our bikes are in a locked garage in a decent location and exit is barred by a locked car as well. I guess you have to weigh these things up and...

We charge our bikes in situ. Clever Hubby has made a 'charging trolley' which sits beside the bikes. Much easier than removing the two batteries.

Hi Kevin, welcome to the forum. E-Bikes Direct seem to have knocked a few quid off the Whisper (I have no connection with them). I noticed as I was doing a Google search to see what your bike looked like.

If I use it just for the breakdown cover, by stating the bike value at the cheapest (£200), it comes to £22 for the year. Good for peace of mind. Hubby has a lighter bike than mine and would be able to ride home without electrics, but mine would be too heavy for me. I think it may be worth...

A surprise? Hope she doesn't get to read this forum before you get chance to do the deed!

Their breakdown covers irreparable damage to the bike so I don't think they'd recover you for a flat battery or some sort of electrical problem say. looks like they are covering accident damage rather than break downs (might have read it wrong but that's how I interpret it.) Just for...

Blimey, they closed that loophole quickly didn't they? I'll have to take a look at Brittania Rescue's T&Cs. They tend to be a bit more relaxed about things than the AA and RAC so you never know.

Rob, you are really close to Juicy Bikes (your side of Manchester in fact) and Bob will give you a lot of advice, moderately good coffee and test rides on his bikes. Juicy Bikes are good on after sales support and they have lots of hills near the shop where you can try out those dodgy knees of...

Well he did say 'thanks in advance', so maybe he thinks that covers it!:rolleyes: He seems to have a strange problem with gaps after commas. Maybe he talks without pausing for breath!:oops:

Just a thought. In the event of a leccy bike break down, I wonder if the vehicle rescue services would come to your assistance? We used to ride motorbikes and Brittania Rescue had no problems with taking us home in the event of a puncture. We are covered for any vehicle that we ride/drive so...

Hubby's mum was Austrian and we used to get chocolates sent from Vienna. Every one of them was full of some kinds of truffle stuff, horrible soft gooey and sweet. They never managed to put nuts or fruit inside them. Nowadays, sad to say, most chocolate, wherever it's origin is full of truffle...
