    Haibike sDuro HardSeven 5.0 2019 Yamaha (delimited) vs QWIC MD11 PERFORMANCE 28MPH SPEED PEDELEC

    Have a look at oxygenbikes. Note the legality of derestricting bikes in the UK, but if you’re happy to ignore it then the Oxygen S-Cross MTB and the more road focused CB can be derestricted in about 10 seconds using the display. http://www.oxygenbicycles.com/e-bikes/s-cross-mtb...

    2019 : Our Rides in Words, Photos & Maps

    Early morning (left at 5.30 am) ride around Essex. Road and Gravel on the CCS. Very tempted to get a CCX as the CCS in eco mode is too powerful on narrow paths.

    How many miles do you have on your ebike?

    I’m on my second bike. First one I did 1068 miles on, before selling as I found a very cheap CCS for sale. Second one (CCS) I’ve now also done 1068 miles on! I did laugh when I realised both were on exactly the same mileage. First bike I had for 1 year, the CCS has done the same mileage in 6...

    Longest rides

    Just wondering what everyone’s longest rides have been using their electric bikes. Mine was last weekend where I took out my CCS and a spare battery with it. 52v battery was fully charged and I got 66 miles out of it before swapping over to the 48v one (48v one was tucked up on the top of the...

    What a difference level 2 makes over 3/S! (and a battery question)

    Hehe, I did think would be quicker to walk the 1.6 miles than get the bike out. I’m not really using my CCS for commuting, mainly as my latest job I stay away from home and use a normal bike for the mile or so ride in. Mainly using the CCS at weekends, when I first got it (this is my second...

    Dual batteries :-)

    Thanks. I’ve found a longer version that should fit the battery.

    Dual batteries :-)

    The CCS can use both 48 and 52v batteries. I’m not hooking them both up at once, will just swap them over mid ride. Thanks for the bag suggestion

    Dual batteries :-)

    Had my second battery delivered earlier in the week. Thanks David at Hilleater. So now I have a CCS with: 48v 19ah 52v 21ah Just need to work out a way to secure the 48v battery to the top of the rack and then I’m off on a few very very long rides. Can’t wait!

    Using Negative Experiences as Learning Opportunities - What is there to learn from this?

    Hi Alaskan, sorry to hear of your accident. Hope you’re beginning to recover. Unfortunately being on a bike there’s always a vulnerability. All I can say is take care but don’t let it put you off going out on the bike. It’s impossible to concentrate for the entire time you are out though. I...

    CCX Accident

    Hope you are getting better ebott. As above, it’s pretty easy to fly over the handlebars if you jam on the front brake. I’m glad my adult biking experience was gradually built up via off-road, commuting and some weekend road rides before getting a powerful electric bike as your awareness of...

    Hi, looks like Reid had the same error a while back (code 30). https://electricbikereview.com/forums/threads/juiced-support-is-on-the-ball.23739/ Might be worthwhile running through that thread

    With so many electrical components onboard, how do you wash/clean your ebike?

    I use these for all my bikes, takes grease off the chain, easy to fold one round something thin to clean the cassette and front ring. Dust comes easily off the bike and wheels. Dug in dirt anyway on the bike just comes straight off...

    Your Hopes & Goals in Buying an Ebike - How Has the Reality of It Worked Out?

    Alaskan - always like your Posts. Keep on cycling! I bought an electric bike after my usual cycle commute of 25 miles a day in and out of London got a bit too much to do 5 days a week on a normal bike (I’d been doing it for 4 years). Tried a few ebikes, I’m in the UK so have quite a different...
