    Which helmet for ebike? What do you use?

    What kind of helmets you are wearing with ebikes? I use full face motocross helmet during winter but need something more ventilated for summers. Any suggestions? For my commute I average 18 mph(30km/h) and max speed 45km/h. Mips is good thing to have in helmet.

    Good hardtail bike to convert rear hub ebike?

    Thanks for the information, didn't know about shallow dropouts before. I have 2x torque arms with my current bike and going to use on the new one also. Steel frame could be nice but there aren't many with disc brakes.

    Good hardtail bike to convert rear hub ebike?

    I think this site is the best one to help me, very knowledgeable people here. None of those articles talked about converting them to ebike to be honest.

    Front suspension for my ebike

    Thanks for the link! Can you trust these chinese knockoffs though? Compared to more known brand like Suntour? Price is good though.

    Here in Finland winter riding could be quite bumpy and I have to use Schwalbe marathon winter plus 50x622 tires and they aren't soft to ride so that is the reason I would like to go for suspension work.

    I have quite wide 740mm handlebar. My friend told me that my bike geometry is more towards mtb also. He said I should be fine with front suspension.

    Front suspension for my ebike

    I don't have problem with my butt I lift it up at pot holes etc. I can just feel them in my hands when going fast speeds. Do you have some sort of suspension saddle? Can you link it?

    So my problem is that PAS is not working. When I pedal pas sensor red light is flashing but doesn't give any engine power, it's installed to left side. I've tried c1 settings 2-7, with some c1 settings it gives a bit under 1 second push when starting to pedal but stops there. Throttle works...
