I worried about the breaks too,I have a bike with combination brake levers gear change,in the end I added it as an extra lever but I sincerely never use it,cutting electricity manually is never an issue,the little run on when one stops peddling is not an issue for me

I saw on the website the 13 ah 36v kit was on special for I think 599,I've got this on a 700c bike and am very happy with it,I find the bottle battery much easier than the design on a kalkhoff I tried,afraid I don't experience other oxydrive kits

sorry just saw you queried sensor earlier

that rules that out, in my (fairly amateur) way the next port of call would be the PAS - it needs to be close, but not touch, though I would go through all the connections as anotherkiwi suggest as well, the power delivery should be linear without interruption within the speed range so this is...

I had something like this at the start - in my case it was my installation of the cut out break lever(I put it on the handlebars as an emergency way to cut power in addition to two combination gear change/brake levers) - it was too horizontal so on inclines it would partially close and cut power...

I read a very good article in atob by mole (will find and paste it) about this - and why schwalbe big apples have such low rolling resistance (it has to do with the footprint being round) - and indeed they do (I've tried them, it's astonishing how easy they roll at around 15mph), but...

for the money I found these http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/avid-single-digit-5-brake/rp-prod22386 absolutely great on a self build town bike

I get 24 mph with a15A controller quite easilly to qualify the skidding bit, for me road surface has a great deal to do with it, on one long steep descent on very smooth tarmac in the mornings 38mph feels fine and solid, later on the way home there's very rough tarmac where the tyre seems to...

yerrss...that would explain all those fat knobbly tyres on tour de France bikes. I have a city bike with fat marathon plus' - I've come off several times at relatively low speed, I have a high speed racer I regularly commute at 22 to 24 mph on on very skinny 700c 23 duranos, never any risk of...

FWIW I have a code 10 in a very skinny 700c wheel (700 by 23) with almost the same diameter as a mountain bike tyre 26 wheel - the no load speed derestricted is 24 mph, on the level I get 22/23 mph or maybe 24/25 when conditions very favourable. On my bike anything faster becomes demanding and...

if it's mainly a pollen issue, believe it or not local honey really works

unless building it yourself is part of the fun (I can imagine this, having done a self build), why not just pick up an odk replica from alibaba (see the odk thread)? it looks a wonderful cargo bike. speaking of which does anyone have experience of buying over alibaba? is it at all reliable?

My brompton always feel perfectly balanced when with front luggage and weight in front: crazy thought,but will a few rivnuts intrude too much into the head tube? If not could the battery mount vertically there,is there enough cable. I have same battery on oxydrive and she me how imagine...

There's a flashback, the fourth declension,appropriate that its not mota I guess

using it more or less like you describe I get 30 miles on a charge - but it goes with two bars showing on the meter - and it sometimes shows a "code 6" - however, a charge later and I get another 30 miles no problem.

I sortof really agree, though I also think there's a big gulf between publicity/telling people what to do - and them actually translating that into awareness/changed behaviour. I have a dozy friend I like dearly, but who cycles much the way she walks and talks and lives generally - without much...

many thanks, will order one, hopefully I've diagnosed it right

I just noticed there is what looks like a Chinese crank drive version too

thanks for that - I - deeply - like the green copy - moreso for $760 US - the tubing looks very substantial - if I were in the market for that the final piece of the puzzle would be whether it could do 20 mph average, the realistic minimum I need to get anywhere as quickly as I have to

dear all, apologies if this has been covered before: but is there a bottom bracket that definitely works with the small PAS sensor that goes on the non-drive side? I simply couldn't get it to fit on two BB's I used on the conversion I did - then I hacked the large PAS sensor that came with the...
