Hi guys. Thought I’d post a message on here as I know this forum is quite popular, Also been getting a fair bit of work from recommendations from you guys!
I posted a while back in regards to my ebike kits selling page at COGS Y GOGS!
I’ve recently had to split my business in two from advise taken from my accountant > I still run (cogs y gogs ) and still install motors on top of !normal! bicycle servicing)
But my ebike selling website has changed to www.RedDragonebikes.co.uk
If you guys can spread the word for me that would be Ace

regards and all the best. Neil

Since your a UK company, selling I presume to UK customers, would it be possible to flag which of your eBike products are legal to use on UK roads ?

A quick look there is a note quite low down on the page
that says
UK Legal Status
The Bafang BBS02B is not for on road use.

I think it would be good if that was in a more prominent position, and also stated that it is not for use in public places off road either: eg on bridleways, cycle tracks etc.

~~~
I've not used your service, but I noticed that you had a very satisfied customer (for your road legal kit) on the Cycling UK forum.

you can buy electric scooters in currys no signs on any of it, they dont care same as Halfords and all the others lol

dont forget the biggest haibike dealer in this country sells and fits dongles and honors the warranty when no one else can even gen 4 smart motors.

i did ask them if they could get me a 3rd party batt from Germany from ebike vision and said no because bosch does not make them, yeah like those dongles you fit, twats :p
