    Mycle classic step through, Ampere deluxe, Volt Kensington, Juicy Malva?

    Yes, I saw that - I think that’s the Mycle folding bike that’s being discussed? I’m interested in the Classic, which has a bigger battery (9.6Ah). It’s the risk of rain splash I’m worried about, and I have similar worries about the battery with the Volt Kensington - although the rest of the...

    Mycle classic step through, Ampere deluxe, Volt Kensington, Juicy Malva?

    Has anyone got any experience of these bikes? I am looking for a step through bike. I prefer having the battery in the frame rather than on the rack at the back, hence the choice. I could go higher on the budget and have looked at Volt Kensington but am concerned about the exposed battery (I...

    Seago CityLite Pro folding ebike - folding handlebar hinge “worn out”

    Thanks all. I am pretty careful with the bike - it has a full service every six months, and is only two years old. (This is because I have severe arthritis in my hands and need support with the maintenance.) So I don‘t think the underlying problem is neglect! I am hopeful that it will be...

    Seago CityLite Pro folding ebike - folding handlebar hinge “worn out”

    I’m having some trouble with my Seago bike and wondered whether anyone else has had this issue? (Or a similar problem with another brand of folding bike…) The front of my bike started wobbling uncontrollably as I was cycling over Waterloo Bridge this afternoon. It was pretty scary! I was able...

    Chainset folding Seago CityLite pro

    @Cancunia I think @Nealh will have some suggestions if you add a picture of your set up and/or details of the bottom bracket. :) Re the accident, I am more annoyed than anything - and am looking forward to being able to use my bike again. I collided with an older person on an escooter - and he...

    Chainset folding Seago CityLite pro

    Thank you I am going to have to get help doing that given the current state of my hands! my stepfather is coming in a few days so I will ask him to help with removing the crank. I‘ve worked out that it has a 52T (single) chainset and I think (based on specs of a similar model with a very...

    Chainset folding Seago CityLite pro

    I was knocked off my bike today and in addition to some impressive bruising and a broken bone, the chainset needs replacing. A local bike shop mechanic had a look and said that they didn’t have anything that would fit, and that I should contact the manufacturer. I’ve emailed Seago to ask about...

    Battery compatibility query

    I need to get hold of a new battery for my Seago CityLite. This is the battery it uses: https://www.dhgate.com/product/10s3p-36v-10ah-lithium-battery-with-top-ncr18650bd/419115856.html#seo=WAP As I need something quite quickly, a friend has pointed out that my bike is very similar to the...

    20 inch Tyres...

    Last night I attended a MS Teams class about fixing a puncture. It made me realise that the combination of my poor dexterity (arthritic hands), the weight of the bike, and my complete terror at taking the wheels off (disc brakes, the motor hub) is not a great recipe for easy puncture repair! I...

    E folders under a grand?

    @RossG I have a 2020 model Seago CityLite and have been looking for a new battery - thank you so much for posting that link! (There is nothing wrong with my current battery - but I can’t use public transport until there is a coronavirus vaccine and I need to make some longer trips so planning to...

    ebike service/repair SE London

    Can anyone recommend where to get an ebike serviced or repaired in SE London? (mobile service would be especially good as I am immunosuppressed so am still avoiding indoor places and public transport). I have a folding Seago CityLite (2020 model) and am very happy with it so far - although it...
