    Prices of the electricity we use to charge

    Nah, I buy caviar can-apes with the profits, I live in the middle of an estate, shoot peasants for sport. Being a kind and caring socialist I find it better than watching them suffer with disability and madness. You of all people must agree Shirley.

    Prices of the electricity we use to charge

    What is this "ruski gas" of which you spake several pages ago? My house now has ASHP, Solar and Battery, selling more voles than I'm eating. I also buy them and freeze them at night while they are asleep, sell them to my poor neighbours to eat at tea time when they are expensive. About to get a...

    Making a torque throttle instead of a speed throttle for a cheap controller

    Thanks, I have a small bum bag on my headstock all the excess wires and connectors live in, I'll probably tape it inside a small ziplock bag initially so it can't short out etc. The switched fused live feed and wago connectors for lights and phone charger live in there too. The money pocket...

    Making a torque throttle instead of a speed throttle for a cheap controller

    Hi @saneagle Hmm, I fancy the legal low speed throttle arrangement for bbs01b. I find the throttle useful. I was thinking about going the DVLA low speed moped route but this is cheaper and neater, still legal to ride bridleways and footpaths. I've ordered the trimpot and a 3 pin extension...

    I'm back

    Well, that just confirms my theory that there are lots of lovely dog owners and there are Mad Cat Women, some of whome go in the guise of male ecyclists. Do you collect all the dead small birds to eat in pies too?

    I'm back

    And cats, there's more than enough on facebook. So many cats, not enough recipes! I hope they've been trained to **** in their owner's flowerbeds.

    Brompton conversion: Woosh vs Boost Vs Swytch

    I fitted the woosh kit with frog battery, very neat, battery locks on to the mounting block that fits onto the bag mount block. The frog battery could be improved with a white lense on the light, the red lens is useless for the front.

    Queries: E-Bike Touring in France

    Re handlebars, a while back I met an aggressive tram track and patch of tarmac that did for my wrist temporarily, a few months while it healed. I bought a Humpert Handlebar, swept back, so now I ride in a sit up and beg position, no pressure on wrists, comfortable.

    How Do You Track Your Rides Without an App?

    I use Google Fit on Android to track my rides and walks, there's a basic mode by default and a more accurate mode, select for walk/cycle. It does average speed, altitude etc. I don't need to export anything, I've no need. I generally just check It out when I've got home. It just works while the...

    Bbs01b fault

    I fitted a new speed sensor, doubt it's that but I will test old and new. If not that, what else, is the throttle not working a different issue, does that normally cut out if speed sensor is not working?

    Bbs01b fault

    I got an e21 code on the screen the other day. Checked sensor clearance, no joy. No flashing red light. The throttle wasn't working but power stayed on. I have fitted a new speed sensor, nothing has changed. Fault code pops up about a minute after riding, throttle not working from the start...

    DIY Indicators Turn Signals

    I was born with wirefree stalk indicators. They've worked for years with very little maintenance, just a daily wash under the fixing point.
