Hi, my urban mover has a pair of single white wires coming from the controller, which have male and female sockets, so act as an optional link for the controller. Any ideas what this link could be for. Could it be regenerative braking? or an enable/disable for the 15mph limit. As supplied, the...

Hi have you checked the connector from crank sensor to controller, assuming there is one. They are quite small and fiddly. It is possible to get an intermittent connection, also possible for a pin to be pushed partially out on connection, leaving it intermittent. (hence stopped after dropping...

Hi, The urban mover is a 6 speed screw on freewheel with 14/28 as previously stated in thread. I have looked into it all....The chain wheel is an all in one with rotation sensor, so it doesn't look possible to change at all. I checked the Shimano site and there is only one alternative 6 speed...

Hi, does anyone know where I could get a waterproof switch to go in parallel with Brake swithc on Urban Mover UM36 to cut off power when I don't need it. Would prefer a flick switch that I can operate with left thumb? thanks, Jonathan.

I found out that torque sensor with springy pedal is a brand new option at £49. My first reaction is that I'm wished I had it. But then it's more to go wrong. It's adavatages are that it gives less help (and acceleration) when going slowly, so power take up is controlled. But then I'm thinking...

Hi, so the supposedly puncture proof tyres are made by "Heng Shin" and called "CST E-BIKE PRO all purpose long life tyres". Will wait to see if I get puncture. The front sprocket is 40T and the back is a shimano MFTZ06 with 14/28 teeth and 6 speeds. Interesting, because I guess I could...

Will do one too Jonathan.

The tyres on it are claimed to be puncture resistant, described as "UM-T puncture resistant" will have a look to see what they really are....... I wasn't offered the torque sensor option, I don't think I've got it. Motor just cuts in when pedals are turned. They showed the bike on the Gadget...

Hi, thanks for comments on Giant Suede. I test rode it and an urban mover UM36 on Friday. No comparison for me, as a bike to ride for comfort and ride quality the Uraban Mover was much better. Also lighter at 22.5Kg with battery. Seems relatively new, company is based in Cheltenham, but bike...

Thanks for the comments so far, really helpful. The other one that I found in this "mid price" bracket is the urban mover sprite. It is £100 more at £699, and it seems to be new to the market, whereas the giant suede has been around for a year at least. Any comments on urban sprite welcome...

Hi, am thinking of buying a giant suede, but the specification on sellers sites is limited. Specifically, things like battery type, range, tri mode? speed limited to 15mph in assist mode, and weight. Can anyone answer theses for me, or give URL for a site with full specs. Views from any owners...
