    Ongoing reliability of Kalkhoff/Focus Impulse 2 motors

    Hi, Just some input from an Integrale I8 user. I purchased my bike from 50Cycles back in November 2015. About 12 months later I had problems with motor, took it back and had a new motor under warranty. I again had problems with the motor in April this year and had what I believe is a 3rd...

    Conversion of Giant Revive semi recumbent

    Conversion Hello flecc thanks for the reply. The model I have is the 21 speed SRAM model, so rear hub motor would not be possible.

    Conversion of Giant Revive semi recumbent

    Hi Guys, I have a Giant revive which I purchased a number of years ago because I had a severe back injury and it was the only bike I could ride for any distance. I now would like to convert it to an electric bike, are there any views or pointers that people could give to help achieve this?
