    Where are the brake levers???

    It's mind controlled - just think of braking and it brakes :) Just joking - braking by going backwards on the pedals

    Buying your first e-bike

    Hub drive or crank drive ..... More infor on that point could help many. For me I ended up wiht a crank drive as the bike with hub drive here in Denmark vere noisy and expensive. I also prefer the drive trough gears experince compared to the hub drive. But that just me! :)

    Lights (again, sorry)

    I use a Hope Vision one, and it's a fantastic light. Loft of light on dark lanes and paths, and when in the city one can use a lower or flashing mode to save power.

    PMT - power meter trouble

    Don't worry about it. The reason for the lights going out and coming back on again is that sometimes you draw a lot of current for instance up-hill which put some strain on the battery, and when you are drawing less power then the light omes back on. I Ride an Enduro and If you use pedalec...

    Winter riding checks

    Well - the bike need some preb too. For cables not to frezee up they need to be olied before frost sets in. All bolts and bare alu parts can be sprayed with liquid wax etc. to protect from salt / corrosion.

    Tonaro Enduro - First impressions

    I bougt the Tonaro Enduro 100 Km's ago from Powerpedals. I must say, that they give an excellent support to me as a customer abroard. So far I must say that I for the price are very satisfied. I live in Denmark, and a bike comparing to this would have cost me 40 - 50% more here. (But would...

    Observing bikes in Amsterdam

    Many Dutch and Danish bikes has the brake build in to the rear hub, so you brake by turning the pedals backwards. Works only on the rear wheel though. Simple and very reliable system, never nedds service or repair, but lacks some power compared to front brakes.

    protanium electric motoers and bikes

    Protanium is indeed a Danish founded company, but mostly they deliver motors/ e-drivesystem to many bikefactories and makes. Their main strenght is the e-system, not the bikes themselves. Many - or most danish bike manufactures use protanuim parts for their e-bikes.
