    Vekkit

    I've actually just started re-using over the last few weeks after a winter break, due to me being a fair weather cyclist, rather than any issue with the kit! Seems to be working fine, I'm pleased to say. The only issue I have had, was when the elastic band holding the cadence sensor snapped...

    Vekkit

    3 speeds = 30/70/100% on handlebar, and press and hold to power off completely If you use the app, it allows you full control in 10% increments. Just cycled up Haytor this morning, which was 1650 ft of elevation and about 14 mile round trip. I knew I'd been up a big hill, but made it without...

    Vekkit

    Used the Vekkit both Wed and Thursday to get to work and back - 30 mins each way, for about a 15 mile round trip, and a days work in between. Really impressed, and faultless operation throughout. Car journey time is often pretty similar due to traffic, so I can see myself riding quite often...

    edit just realised I forget to mention battery charge -it was showing about 70% after the 65 minute ride, which was about 16 miles, so range looks perfectly adequate for a 2-3 hour ride. I have the 7ah battery, and the 250w traveller motor btw.

    Vekkit

    So my Vekkit was delivered on Wednesday, and I must say I am very impressed. Not having used an ebike before, I have nothing to compare it too, but I took it for a test ride to work and back, which is about 8 miles each way, on mostly flat cycle paths, but there are a few of those over the dual...
