Most people NOW laugh at me on my bike..
And I hide the batteries..  My bike looks more like a moped/motorcycle than a bike.
If you've seen the short video of my ebike on YouTube, you know why.

Once I have the bike fixed up again..  I'll post a new vid of all of it at night. (so you can see the amp/speakers/neon going!

that would be real good 8)

i've got a thumb size mini cam which i've attached to my bike to try and record my city commute, but it keeps switching itself off, I think it doesn't like the vibrations too much.

Hey LOLO I live in Australia and drive a Citroen Berlingo car hehe I love it. Pity it has no power though lol
That guy on his bike looks to be using a twin cyclone/nuvi kit - top speed with those wheels & gears is 100kmh+ achievable. I actually like the sound too

Haha how much trouble did he have trying to keep the front wheel on the ground lol
