    New Lightweight Yosepower Torque Sensor Hub Motor Kit

    ...in my warehouse but we haven't continued with that project. The Tongsheng TSDZ8 is probably the nicest crank drive kit we have now, also, the Tongsheng 85TS is a rear hub, very lightweight, excellent kit that is easiest to fit too. https://wooshbikes.co.uk/?tsdz https://wooshbikes.co.uk/?85TS

    It's a shame you guys always live miles from civilisation. I'd have that Ado 16 fixed in about 5 minutes. Motors don't break, especially in 16" wheels.

    Change off mind from yose power to mid drive

    I'm now considering a 36v BBS01 250w kit with 48 tooth gear wheel (to keep the gear ratios the same as it is now) possibly with a 36v 20Ah battery. It shows an rpm 78/83 but I won't be pedalling that fast, maybe somewhere between 60-70 It has a 11/34 cassette, so I think would be ok up steep...

    ...a really good idea for Katy. It would help her getting started on slopes as there is a slight lag before assistance engages. Most lightweight bikes are unsuitable as they won't provide sufficient assistance - this rules out Mahle, Fazua, and Specialized systems. I would not worry too much...

    Disabled cyclist; with one bad choice behind her, needs help with a new bike

    The problem is that lightweight and high power don't normally go together, except for bikes with small wheels (20"), which are generally smaller and lighter, and you get higher torque because of the mechanical advantage of the smaller wheels.

    Disabled cyclist; with one bad choice behind her, needs help with a new bike

    Drop off a suitably low weight step-through bike to a professional conversionator, ask for a centrally situated battery, and possibly motor too, for more even weight distribution than your Crusa, and a suitably low weight high power cadence sensored motor kit, for overall lower weight than your...
