Nice vid electric dream. I should think with my novice guide complete with mistakes and lack of tools, knowledge nor skill and your pro like vid with correct gear it will really encourage loads more to have a go. I didn't even think to change the handlebar for a much taller one like you did...

Further info; I didn't consider it at the time but this rear cassette is an 11speed 11-42T meaning it has a 42teeth on the largest cog at the rear. Great for going uphill without assistance but with assistance a waste of at least the largest two cogs as they will never be used. I would recommend...

reaction has bigger battery, better fork, better chainset, sleeker design, better brakes

Newly designed frame which looks smarter Gen 4 bosch motor 500w battery as standard

I bought from pswpower from their EU warehouse and it arrived in 4days. The kit and battery cost me £540 although you can save £125 if you get the 500w battery. http://www.pswpower.com/ven.php?cargo.2018-4c-gj4p http://www.pswpower.com/ven.php?cargo.2019-7y-bu86 I would have liked to have used...

I have done this as a resource for novices like I am/ was who are attempting their first kit. Someone like me with no relevant tools, who has never even tightened brakes before. You can glean much of the following information on this forum but I wanted to bring it under one thread which would...

Thanks for replies. I did set it up today and obviously the screen now gives speed, distance etc. and motor assist cut outs at 25kph. I also shortened the motor to cable battery considerably and used waco connectors hidden inside the battery mount. I managed to get all of the cabling looking...

Just installed my TSDZ2 and took it for a whiz yesterday not quite finished as it was getting dark without the speed sensor attached. Worked perfectly. Is there any reason to connect the speed sensor other than to know the speed you are travelling at? Just seems like more wiring and another...

Got my kit in post today and picking up voodoo tomorrow. Could anyone be kind enough to advise if these are the tools I need to remove pedals and bottom bracket?

Good point Whoosh. The Agwe is a single 42T so I presume that's a good start to suggest it should fit. Its a hybrid bike with 40mm tyres and I believe doesn't flare out too bad like the mountain bikes. I am sure I have read somewhere, probably here, of a non problematic conversion of either the...

I was too late on ordering that Merida and they sold out in my size. I have since settled on a hybrid (without suspension as all my riding is paths, gravel, poor tarmac) and figured the Voodoo Agwe seems suitable. I think others have converted it without problem. My local Halfords store doesnt...

thanks for coming back to me on that. Reassuring to know. The spec looks decent for the money barring the fork

Resurrecting this thread as the lockdown makes me want to get a bike sorted now. I have been looking for used bikes for last week but nothing of interest in my localityy. Tredz have this which I can get a further 10% off making it £450...

thanks all for advice, saved me making an error.

I have a carbon hybrid and find it a bit jarring on the tracks, dry bridleways and kerb hopping that i do and as that can't be fitted with a mid mount kit I guessed a MTB might be better. I live on an island and used donor bikes are pretty hard to come by and this voodoo is a cracking price. I...
