guys! guys! lets keep it civilized. I can see tensions are rising. but the whole aim of this thread is to see who wants to end the confusion by make a section that is not any bit part of the e bike section. 24 out of 32 people so far thing this is a step in the right direction.

Cheese,
Z and I are not being uncivilized, we just have different points of view.
The way Anne was treated in the stuck thread is uncivilized.

I'm outspoken here because this is the same way Ebikes were treated before this forum was opened.
Trying to find any info about them always ended in a flame war of people saying they did not belong on the forums. The same thing happens here if an ICE biker starts a thread, I think that is a shame.

Personally I have a great interest in steam and using compressed air is something that I would like to explore as well. The batteries in my own e.tricycle are going to need to be replaced after 2 years hard use and I'm pretty concerned about their safe disposal. I had considered getting myself a wee pony to haul a little gig like one of my neighbours did for personal transport back when I was a smallholder, but that's not without its problem either since a pony takes a lot of looking after if you want it to stay happy and healthy. In seeking to expand the e.bike forum I'm trying to look to a much larger future not kick over anybody's personal sandpit.

vote for two forums
Hi all, I am new to this group. I have built an ICE bike and now awaiting my amped bike kit. My interest is in both and it would make most sense to have eached discussed individually in their own forum. As indicated each have their own issues to be discussed. I would subscribe to both and keep on topic in each.

Yes that's true Allen, - only NZ's sole major battery recycling plant recently caused a ruckus by springing toxic leaks and almost poisoning the neighbourhood around it. The problem has now been fixed, but it still was a stern warning that battery recycling is a dangerous business if it's not being done properly.
