I take panniers to the shop with me, so they don't attract unwanted attention. I took a car to the mechanic few days ago and paid £200 to fix a puncture. For £200 you can have a hybrid or mountain bike in mint condition bought on Ebay. Bicycles are super cheap comparing to other means of...

I am not sure what is it about big black plastic boxes that attract so many people. It is just a bad idea. Making savings on safety is just a false economy. Changing pressure in tyres will make a little difference. Try proper panniers and you will see the difference.

You can add suspension stem and seat post for increased comfort. Personally I ride bike like a horse. Secure cargo, reduce speed and avoid potholes.

He joined over three years ago...

Yes, positive approach is a way to move forward. There is no way you can outsmart 11k Chinese companies... If you can't beat them, join them. What is this man's address again? You should register for VAT at his address too ;) One more brown envelope won't make a big difference to him anyway :)

I am not sure if I should laugh or cry... It is honestly pathetic.

If not on road, then where this bike should be used? In the shed? Totally ridiculous.

Did you manage to get 250W motors?

New motors by Tongsheng. Unfortunately for me only 500W and 750W, but for you it might be a good option to consider. https://www.pswpower.com/products/tsdz2b-tongsheng-48v-500w-350w-15a-tsdz2-electric-bicycle-mid-motor-with-torque-sensor-throttle-e-brake-lever-vlcd5-vld6-xh18-lcd-850c-292

Did you consider TSDZ8?

Would you kindly share some direct links to recommended places to buy Toseven/Bafang/Tongsheng kits?

Does it make any difference if it is front or rear hub?

There are very few reviews on Trustpilot. People are complaining of problems with warranty and faulty motors. I find it worrying, but I think I will take a risk and order kit from them as they have motor I want and price is good. Did you buy anything from them?

https://www.pswpower.com/collections/toseven-mid-drive-motor-kit I have no experience with Pswpower though. Their reviews on Trust pilot are quite poor.

I think I spend to much time on reading about batteries. It is time to put my battery on charge for a bit and fire up my smoker. Smoked salmon today :)

I try to charge to 80% - 90% on most occasions and charge to 100% to balance cells from time to time while avoiding draining battery flat. I simply don't trust them. Do you?

Thanks. I can't find exact dimensions of BBS01B. To be specific the gap between the bit that goes into BB and motor is a concern. This gap must be wide enough to accommodate cables and frame.

I am thinking about converting my old Cube Attention SL. Bafang BBS01B 36V 250W is my first choice with TDSZ2 as close second. I thought removing bottom bracket is a good first step... I admit I have never removed bottom bracket before, so here is my first silly question: What "do not...
