I know there are dongles available for higher end brands like Gazelle, Cube, Kalkhoff etc using Bosch, Yamaha, Shimano Steps CD motors, some maybe fitted with walk mode switch? But my question is can throttles be added to any branded bike with a branded cd motor allowing throttle only to...

Ive seen a few pedal and electric bikes with carbon fibre drive belts and solid driveshafts as opposed to traditional steel chains. Are these innovations the way of the future for IGH? I can't see how they would work with derailleurs.

I would like to hear your comments on this passage, agree? disagree? Taken from a bike builder. With a CD Drive eBike solution, the bikes’ complete crank set is replaced by a motor drive unit with its own chain-set incorporated in the assembly. The motor unit will directly drive the bike’s...

Albeit the bikes compared exceed the UK legal limit, this video highlights a good non-pedal comparison. sent via huawei P9

Went to the local bike shop here in mindanao, island, Philippines just to get a handle on sitting on a bike as last time I did was probably 50 years ago. Nothing like the uk here but did have a giant and a trinx but both were 27.5 inch wheels, I could barely get my leg over and the seat...

Let me start by saying that I'm a novice here but I'm either blessed or handicapped with a very enquiring mind. Recently I stumbled on a 2012 thread with d8veh and kudosbikes being the main contributors on an electric bike called the Tonaro Bighit with a torque of 128/nm. Trex gave some...

On a pre-built bike the new uk law is pretty clear any electric bike manufactured after 2016 with a throttle the throttle must be restricted to 6kph. However if a conversion, if the pedal bike was purchased in 2014 but the ekit was purchased in 2016 or vice versa then how does that stand up...

Instead of buying a pre-made electric bike are there any companies or individuals in the UK that specialize in converting a standard pedal bike into an electric bike using a conversion kit? sent via huawei P9

I notice at least two fairly new manufacturers using this gear system on ebikes, Momentum and Aerobike, I have also seen questions posed on these forums from competitor companies asking feedback. Do you think we will see established brands in 2017 and beyond adopting this gearbox? Whilst...

I read on the Woosh website that the big bear has the most powerful motor in their range but aren't all 250w hub motors equal? The weight limit is 18 stone but not clear how this works if over a bit and on the flat? The throttle is restricted to 4mph? How can this be deristricted for use on...

Saw this Oxygen bike in a car park how is the rider powering it?

At the sub 1500 quid mark under the new law of using a throttle only up to 6mph, which is the best bike for a lazy person to use like a moped? Is there a way to ride on power only just using pedals? Or is it still possible to use a throttle version bike if its an older model?

I see several bikes that tick most boxes for me, wisper, oxygen, woosh, however from memory I remember how hit and miss it was in the old days when changing gears on a bike with derailleur gears and sometimes the chain coming off and remember having to pedal back when changing. Has the...
