I have a sensor on the derailleur but I just stop peddling / drop the throttle to shift the hub.

It's still fine after a few thousand miles. Gives me all the ratios I need with the 9-speed on the back. Biggest cog and lowest gear on the Sturmey is enough to lift the front wheel off the throttle and climb the steepest inclines. Smallest gear and highest on the Sturmey is enough to hit 45kph...

The looks sweet Woosh. How much do those go for?

My ebike battery is pretty much bolted to my bike frame and isn't easily removable. I'm not riding during the winter and the bike is in a closed bike-shed in my garden. I discharged the battery to the cell storage voltage (3.7V / cell) before putting it away and unplugged the battery from the...

Looks like a hell of a lot of fun though.

I did a Felt Compulsion 2 (2009) recently with no clearance issues. It's a good frame if you can find one. Plenty of space in the triangle for a battery if you can find a Large. My Medium wouldn't take a dolphin or shark but I could have mounted it under the down tube. In the end I built my own...

Not sure I'd trust those 24 spoke wheels either.

I think I need to get some of those crank arms. Mainly for looks TBH.

Another vote for nkon.nl. I bought my 30Qs from there and they were spot on. 4 days from ordering I had them in my hand. They came well packaged too.

I'd offer it up and see how it looks before making a decision about which side to put the spacers. Bear in mind that it's hard enough to get a decent chainline with the BBSHD right up against the BB.

Looking at that, I think the Luna ring will hit the frame. Only just though. You could probably adjust the frame very slightly with the old 4lb precision adjustment tool.

Indeed. Also flying his drone illegally too. Idiots gonna idiot though.

Stick an SSD in it and it will fly. I use a laptop much older than that to do programming and it boots in 20 seconds flat. The difference is that I have an SSD in it.

30q for sure. My 14s5p pack doesn’t even get warm after a 1 mile hill climb.
