    how many people here don't actually own/drive a car or drive less these days?

    I have 3 bikes, a MTB, a racer and my Ezee. The Ezee gets used far more than the other bikes and, like other people I use it for local stuff >10 miles. Living in suburbia it is far more pleasurable than the car, I am always relaxed and I get a bit of exercise while I am at it. I am not a...

    Can I de restrict an Ezee Chopper

    Thanks flecc. I was hoping otherwise. The Cadence has been excellent with 17mph and 40 miles ish so far (I am still conditioning). The problem I have is I find it pretty irritating waiting around for the missus to catch up on the Chopper doing 13mph and of course it would be nicer to improve...

    Throttle versus turbo button?

    I agree with fishingpaul. 80% of the time all you need is an on/off button but for the remaining 20% the extra control is very useful, like tackling the tight corners that you find regularly on wheelchair ramps for instance.

    Can I de restrict an Ezee Chopper

    I have got 2 Ezee bikes; a Chopper and a Cadence. Because the Chopper has small wheels it only does 13mph under power. Can this be de restricted to get the speed up a bit. It would also be nice to do the same on my Cadence but it is not such an issue. Any help would be appreciated.

    Where Can I get Ezee Batteries from In The UK?

    Hi Nick Does that mean fully discharge and fully recharge 2 or 3 times or discharge once and try to reacharge 2 or 3 times without actually discharging. The latter doesnt sound right but I am just checking :confused: :o Flecc: No worries.

    Where Can I get Ezee Batteries from In The UK?

    I have read that Lithium batteries need to be kept charged rather than letting them run right down and then fully charge them. At the same time I have reads that new batteries need to be conditioned before they reach their full capacity. This is confusing me and considering the cost I am...

    Where Can I get Ezee Batteries from In The UK?

    Thanks Flecc and Conal. I'll try Onbike; is there no problem with the 14ah instead of the 10ah battery, physical size the same and the existing charger OK? If that fails I'll try Cyclepoint again, I just hate being ignored repeatedly.

    Where Can I get Ezee Batteries from In The UK?

    I need to source two Ezee 10ah 36v Lithium Ion batteries. I originally ordered them from Cycle Point but I am not happy with their communication. When I placed the order they warned me that it would take a while which is fair enough, but since then I cant get in touch depsite leaving...
