    Working fine and now dead

    Hi, sorry it’s taken a while to reply, the bike shop was really busy. The purion display had failed, Bosch replaced it for free, I just have to pay £40 for fitting and diagnosing the problem, which I’m happy with as I never bought the bike from there. It seems strange that it failed with...

    Working fine and now dead

    Thanks for the really informative replies. I have found the receipt for the bike, it was purchased September 2018, so hopefully if it needs any expensive parts they should be covered. I have it booked into a Bosch dealer on Monday, I hope they can diagnose the problem, one dealer I contacted...

    Working fine and now dead

    Thanks for the comprehensive reply . I am from England. I have tried turning the bike on using the button on the battery, the battery flashes the charge level but nothing else happens. I am very confident there is no corrosion , it has never been out in the rain and has been kept in the house...

    Thanks, if it’s not eligible for a warranty repair (can’t find receipt) I will see if I can fix it myself.

    Working fine and now dead

    I went out for a small ride on my Cube Elly bike with Bosch activeline motor, it’s probably done less than 200 miles from new, it’s maybe a couple of years old, my mother gave it to me as she never uses it. It was working fine, a few hours later I went to ride it again but it’s totally dead...

    Front light that can run from intuvia micro USB port

    Thanks for the replies, I don’t need a light to charge from the USB port, just be powered by it, it does not have to be a powerful light as it’s just secondary to my Cateye Volt 1200, so a low power flashing one would be fine, I like to have a constant light and a flashing light front and rear...

    Thanks for the reply, there probably are but I’m not very technically minded and don’t want to open up the motor.

    Is a mtb style viable for short commute?

    I commute 28 miles each way on a mountain bike, I put a pannier rack on it, and put some slicker tyres on, it seems to be working out really well.

    Hello from Gainsborough, England

    Hi I've just got my first ebike, this forum has been an amazing resource. I've ridden normal bikes most of my life, but a few years ago I started to get arthritis in my knees. I thought my cycling days were sadly behind me. My 75 year old mother had arthritis in her knees as well and has...

    Crazy Stupid Commute

    Today is my first attempt at a 60mile round trip commute. I wouldn't even attempt it with a regular bike, I'm not very fit. I got an ebike a week ago and this is the first long ride. It's limited to 15mph assisted as I'm in England, and I might get tired of such a slow speed eventually but it...
