Forever Aloe Propolis Crème works wonders!

Strava won't be used for the purpose of banning e-bike riders. Last night I was in a bit of a hoofed off mood, so gave it the beans cycling home. work shirt and trousers were dripping in sweat but it did the trick https://www.strava.com/activities/578038065 Anything over 15.4mph is 100% my...

My batribike was less than £800. an i'm banking on it being a commuter for years to come

on my road bike I fitted Slime inner tubes, one lasted 2 miles before went completely flat after picking up a thin nail. I then tried Halfords own brand slime, which is orange, in standard tubes, and never had an issue, my e bike has Halfords own brand slime in the tubes and it's gone well so far

Probably faster, but my fitness level is nowhere near where it needs to be for that yet. I bought my e bike for commuting so I can cycle to work as there are no shower facilities at work.

Update: did a 31 miles run, mostly on assist 3, pedalling with reasonable effort, 3/5 bars remaining https://www.strava.com/activities/561121499

28 miles with 2/5 battery bars remaining. (taking a reading whilst cycling with moderate assist) standard batribike 10.6Ah battery. using assist 3/4 most of the way with a few miles on throttle, just to try it out haha https://www.strava.com/activities/550170558

Haha, yes the Granite thing did pop up when discussing this with friends :) First ride to work today, what a pleasure! I've done 60 miles on the bike in a week and it's better than i expected

Well the bike arrived, very much loving it! I've done 50 miles so far, including a 30 mile run with moderate assist, and still had 2/5 battery left when i arrived home.

I have used strava for a few years now, big thumbs up!

A little bit of shock, then loosen it a little, then tighten a tiny bit, to work it free. some things you'll never get out, like a steel bolt in an aluminium casting!

Fair enough! :) I love you idea, I'll be looking down this route come battery replacement time!

My cyclo mio 505 displays text messages, however, trying to read them whilst moving is nigh on suicidal!

I've used lipo's in RC cars under very high loads, up to 50c, and drones at moderate loads, and I've never conditioned new batteries. the critical voltage for lipo's is 3.2v per cell, below that it's a goner, the rule of thumb we used to use was about 3.4v per cell for the cut off voltage, 3.6v...

Shaft every time! the only thing i had to do to my Divvy was put a bit of hammerite on the shaft casing!

There are a few problems with using fluids for lubricating chains, The first is fling, oil gets everywhere, and for people like me who don't have a shed, it also gets into your carpets! The second is that the film is wet, and allows dust and fine grit to stick to the chain, which causes a lot...

Welcome to the forum! have you decided on what bike you are going to buy?

i use rock 'n' roll gold on my road bike, that what i'll be using on my e-bike once it arrives. http://www.rocklube.com/ It actually cleans the chain as you apply it, then you wipe off the excess and you are good to go in ten minutes! I tried the blue one, but it was too wet and attracted...

Thanks for the warm welcome, @supersneak I'll be travelling from Torry to Portlethen, it's a fair trek whichever route I take! Yeah hoping the weather improves over the weekend!

Hi all! Well after stalking this forum for a while, reading reviews, pondering, and just being indecisive in general, I've decided to take the plunge! I've gone and ordered myself the Batribike Granite Pro from e-bikes direct. I actually had a look at a second hand one, though it hadn't been...
