Do you know how you ride a bike? No you don't, nobody really does. Not even scientists.

I’m not talking about electric motorbikes, they are a completely different category of vehicle, though to be honest I’d love one 🙂 I have a full bike licence but not the cash.

So why buy an electric pedal assist push iron? Simple, they really really do help you get up them thar hills.

Electric bikes differ visually from a regular bike very little, with newer e-bikes you could be hard pressed to...

Believe it or not, there is right way and wrong way to use them, and if you love your bike, protect it with something Sold Secure Gold.

It’s better than buying a complete new pack. Why? Because there’s a guy out there who will replace the individual cells. I’ve been quoted a price of £140 or a possible upgrade of £170 depending on how many cells and their configuration (series and parallel).

So i think what you have there is 10s4p battery pack or 10s5p
I will be able to make it like new 10s4p (13.6AH ) for 140GBP...

Last week I had my first ever holiday on my own and my first holiday in nearly 3 years, my first day off, my first lie in and my first holiday with my E-Bike. Before I set off I planned a trip around Loch Linnhe and Loch Eil with Google Maps.

The maximum assist I used was 25%

The total distance I rode was just a little over google’s estimate as I detoured around Inverlochy looking for a bike...

I’ve held off updating the blog with the fix for the power cut-out on the Carrera Crossfire-E, I wanted to be sure that I wasn’t just fooling myself and to make sure it stays fixed. 300 miles later and I’ve had zero cut outs.

Way way back in April 2016 when I got this bike and experienced my first power cut I noticed that a zip-tie was around the cable and the frame. But just before going on my...

I shut the site down after selling my crossfire-e, or rather I didn't do much with it and let it lapse.
I did have a backup of all the topics and files but I accidentally deleted it ALL!

So I'm currently trawling the web archive looking for pertinent topics I can repost here. I'll add them to this forum instead of creating a whole new website.

As you no doubt know, I’ve had an electric bike for over two years now, and it’s left a fantastic impression on me physically and mentally too.

About me, I’m 47 years old, I’ve smoked for over 30 years, I live in Halifax West Yorkshire (a VERY hilly town), I also suffer with depression and have done for 20 years. I bought this bike because I’d started cycling again the year before I tore my knee...
