We got our first two eBikes from the internet. The Raleigh for me was fine, but the Cyclotricity just kept falling to bits as Mrs DG rode it. After that got the next bikes from LBSs and found that to be much better. DG…

My contents insurance covers eBikes up to £3500 only. As our R&Ms are over this, we’ve had to take out separate eBike insurance. However, there are many companies in the U.K. providing this service now. But you do have to check carefully the cover they offer as this can vary considerably...

Enjoy the new adventure. DG…

If this was the UK, there would be so many complaints. Unfortunately, country pursuits in the UK is often misunderstood. DG…

A nice leisurely ride around the villages of North Buckinghamshire this morning. Started at 0730, but then called at a friends for coffee for about an hour, then off again. There was no fog early this morning and the temperature when I started was 17oC (63oF) but when I finished, it was...

You need some gonads to do that. DG…

We’ve had thick fog too, in the early mornings, but then it is burnt off by the sun. DG…

Unlike @RabH, I did it the non-sensible way as Mrs DG wasn’t working till the afternoon. So started at 14.45 when the temperature was 301oC (87oF). It was very warm, but did create some breeze whilst riding. Went round some new parts of Milton Keynes, which I am finding out has an amazing...

I have had issues removing the front Quick Lock axle bolt in the past on my Nevo3. Once undone, if stuck, I use a socket extension bar and a soft headed mallet to start to get it to move, which usually does the trick then pull it through. When reassembling, give everything a good clean, then...

@ChrisV Morning and yes it’s another lovely day in the UK. And welcome to the world of retirement. I took early retirement in my late 50s, five years ago and have never looked back, so enjoy yourself. There are brand sub forums which you could post in. Or post the question about the issue on...

Try using some copper grease on the threads of the new bolts to stop them seizing. DG…

This is interesting, finding out further information regarding UK law. More details; “Electric mopeds and motorbikes Electric motorbikes, like conventionally powered motorbikes and mopeds, are categorised by power and speed and different laws apply for different kinds of bikes. The same rules...

Found some more information from Wisper. “Wisper are now offering a limited run of their 806, 705 and 905 electric bike models with a full throttle capable of powering the bikes up to 15.5mph without pedalling. David Miall, Founder and Director of Wisper, says: “I am particularly excited to be...

No, they have managed to make them legal up to 15.5 mph with the DVSA. I think the only manufacturer in the UK to this. DG…

I don’t know if you have Wisper bikes where you are, but they do a full throttle legal version in the UK. May be worth investigating. DG…

Another nice day and nice ride around Milton Keynes. Some nice views with the sun. DG…

I just use a 15mm ring spanner. DG…

Same in the UK. You see a lot of young people on all types of bikes. Steering one handed as they are doing something with their phone, not paying attention and weaving all over the place. Of course, no helmet either. Another thing you see, particularly with family groups, Dad not wearing a...
