    I'm beginning to hate (some) cyclists

    Hi Eddie, Here's my thread on this rig: http://endless-sphere.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=64837 I hasten to add endless sphere is an awkward forum to use compared to this one. Chris.

    I'm beginning to hate (some) cyclists

    I've had a few roadie TC abusers over the last year of eBiking. It used to wind me up but I just ignore them now and whiz past. On a downhill stretch or even on the flat with wind assist they pass me so if you give them a serve in the first instance you might cop a return volley later. Over...

    Dillenger Electric Bikes Conversion kits

    Hi prb, 60km (37miles) is about it for the 10AHr pack. That's on max pedal assist. The PAS (pedal assist sensor) is fitted and works perfectly rain or shine. FYI I upgraded to a BBS01 | 250w | 14.5AHr Panasonic LiFe and get around 80km now and top-out comfortably with a 46x12 top gear combo at...

    Dillenger Electric Bikes Conversion kits

    I've had my Dillenger 250w 10AHr front hub for 2000 miles now since Feb commuting to work and back and it's pretty much bullet-proof in all conditions except snow. I live in Tasmania at sea level. The PAS failed too but they sent a new one gratis and that was 600 miles ago. Battery performance...

    I'm warming to this forum. The ease of use is impressive.

    It's having trouble with Youtube and Vimeo URLs. I'm unfamiliar with XenForo (this forum's software) but I'm guessing a module hasn't been "enabled" to allow videos.

    What it says on the tin; inserting images, inserting links, editing and re-editing, email notification, it's all a delight to use. Well done Pedelecs.

    From way down under | Tasmania

    Hi Geebee, Not mine, swiped off CycleZee's site. Mine is more like this. See photo. It's a great bike. My only reservation is how I can't push it beyond 35km without enormous retardation...it might be the speed limiter kicking in. I was following a very serious looking MTB pilot on the way...

    BBS-01 kit and hidden wire brake sensors

    Oooh you cunning fox. \ I'm in the same boat as Kramer. Thanks for the tip amigafan2003. Speaking of Amigas I've got an A1200 with an '030 board that used to run rings around my PC. Breathless 3D kept me entertained back then and needed the extra grunt.

    I've got a carbon MTB commuter with 250w front hub and pedal sensor and twist throttle on the right bar http://endless-sphere.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=56711 I love the twist throttle because I can leave it in top or second gear and still get away from the lights with instant max...
