    Xiongda front hub problem

    I have 2 Swytch kits and one of them is giving me trouble. The motor makes a loud clunky noise and stutters. I tested it with the bike on a stand and it works perfectly, at every power level, but as soon as I try it on the road the problem shows. Since the motor is fine when on the stand I guess...

    New BMC

    First weeks with an eBike

    I'd like to share my thoughts after my first three weeks with an electric bike. I've been using my fathers' old bike (a pretty good hybrid bike-road frame with mtb gearing a handlebar) for a couple of years to go around the city center whenever I could. I never thought of using it for...

    Hi from Italy

    I've been reading this forum for a few weeks now (it was very helpful for my decision process) and since I just got my Cube Cross Hybrid Pro Allroad I think it's time to become an active member! I never rode a pedelec before and after riding mine for my 16km (one way) commute I can't get the...
