  • The standard lights on my 2018 UA are a bit basic, any upgrade recommendations?

    It has a Bosche performance line motor and 400 battery if that helps. Do all these ebike lights have standard plugs? I'm familiar with dynamos but not ebike lights. Ta muchly

    Also, any idea what disc brake pads I need? It seems to be Deore brake levers, but i'm unsure of the callipers.

  • My UA has Shimano Sait Zee brakes. The pads that were originally fitted were Shimano HO3C which are metal sintered. They're usually £25 - £35 pair (ouch). The ceramic equivalent is HO3a which are cheaper but don't last as long. I recently found and alternative, sintered pair made by Vandorm at £18/pair. Only used for about 2 months but so far they seem same performance as Shimano Ho3C. Got them from bikeparts.co.uk but they don't seem to have them at the mo (wish I'd bought more than 2 sets)

  • Koolstop are pricey but seem to give best life vs power of any pad I've use in last 20 years.

    For hybrids used in city my go to regular pad is ebc red, can be used on resin only rotors aswell.
