Again thanks for the input, i am starting to build up a picture of what is now available, I did not hear back from the Richmond club secretary, for some reason the email bounced back at me? We decided to get some practice in today as it would have been quite a trip to turn up at Reeth if we needed the acu membership.

My post may have been slightly miss leading, I did have to pay the difference between the 2 bikes but still the shop were spot on and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them, Richtoy Scunthorpe, not quite on my door step but worth the trip!

Thank you so much, Email sent, hopefully i will get a reply in time.

Thanks for you reply, he has some bike experience over last few years but only riding round fields on my dads farm, I really wanted to start him off with a easy conducted trial but they seem quite hard to find around the helmsley area. The one up at reeth sounds perfect really , do you know if you can just turn up at that one, I have not as yet got him acu membership or joined any club. Adam.

Anybody know anything about this trial tomorrow as I am thinking about taking my son? Is youth d a conducted route does anyone know and will I be ok just turning up?

They were really good, apologised and admitted it was there fault giving my wrong charger, they offered me new batteries and car correct charger but ended up changing bike for a new one so I have a very happy boy tonight!

Thank you, need some sooner rather than later now due to a charging issue!

Thank you! Will get on the phone in the morning!

Yes 3 batteries 36v , he's given me wrong charger then, no wonder they nearly blow up, think I was lucky it didn't fire, side plastics on bike were even warm!

Charger does say 48v can anyone confirm this is correct or incorrect?

Ok thank you, will contact shop tomorrow and see what they say! I had a very disappointed boy this morning when he couldn't ride his new bike!

I hold my hands up I left it on over night but I did not get any charging instructions with the bike. It's the standard charger, should I be contacting the shop where I bought the bike as I only bought it yesterday or would you say it's a direct result of leaving it on too long?

Ok so bought my son I used oset 16 racing yesterday, after we got home he spent a good hour or so riding so I put the bike on charge, standard bartteries and charger, went to it this morning and I could smell the batteries, anyway they are now dead hot and swollen up, surely the charger would cut off when they are full? Is this my fault for leaving them on too long or a battery or charger error?
