My bike is a chinese folding model with a 250watt motor and a 8ah lithium battery,pedelec only no throttle.I am considering adding a throttle as starting from a dead stop is tough fo me.I am a big guy,125kilo so I added double walled wheels and quality butted spokes (20" wheels ). In quebec...

I read your post with interest because I am in a similar situation.I purchased an electric folding bike in march of this year while I was in relatively good health.My health has deteriated considerably since then,(diabetes and siatica and my left leg is pretty much useless,I walk with a cane and...

I am wondering if going slower will increase the total distance travelled.I know that going 30kmh requires 90% of energy to overcome drag.What are the figures for going 20kmh and will going slower increase total distance travelled for the same battery charge. I love going fast,30kmh but is...

It is called an ebiko,2007,it is pretty much like the 2009 model.I have seen may other similar chinese bikes with a different name..The hub is quite large and very quiet. I assumed the controller was in the hub as well as it is not on the bike. 36 volt lithium ion 8 ah battery,no throttle...

This may sound like a stupid question but do some brushless motors come with only 2 wires going into the hub? I know that brushless motors require 3 wires,but do some have the controller built into the hub as well? There doesn't appear to be any controller on the bike other than the large...
