    Just been talking to Paul from Eden-E Motion Ebikes and he sold 6 bikes at Penrith show on Saturday and another 8 in the shop on Sunday! Not bad for a little shop in a tiny village in the middle of nowhere. http://www.eden-e-motion.co.uk/

    Freego Martin Sport - Bafang MAX Drive

    34T-11T cassette but dont know chainring size and its not on their specs. Easy enough to up the power but no point risking losing the warranty.

    Freego Martin Sport - Bafang MAX Drive

    Its actually for a mate who wants to ride out with me to lose some weight. As a professional driver he wanted something legal. I am putting my BBS02 onto a Trek 6300 tomorrow so I can go slow enough to give him a chance to keep up!

    Freego Martin Sport - Bafang MAX Drive

    Went for a test ride but on the Martin City as the Sport had gone. Same motor and gearing though so good enough to get an idea. Test route included a 1 in 6 hill which I managed but was out of breath at the top. Gear change was smooth even in full assist mode so no gearsensor needed. After that...

    BBS02 on Cannondale Trail 6 Any challenges expected?

    I used a drill with a grinstone on for the weld but you may not have a problem with yours,just try it first and if it catches something then its simple to sort. I got some 5mm longer bolts and 5mm nylon spacers off ebay,just make sure its a UK seller and it will only take a couple of days to...

    BBS02 on Cannondale Trail 6 Any challenges expected?

    I have a BBS02 fitted to a 2014 Cannondale Trail 6. Only fitting problem was having to dremel out a little bit of weld inside the BB. Also dont forget to slack off the cable guide screw under the BB and tighten it back up afterwards. You will need to place a solid spacer between the downtube and...

    Freego Martin Sport - Bafang MAX Drive

    Going for a test ride of one on Thursday and will report back then. I dont think a gearsensor would be needed on only 250 watts.

    Towbar cycle carriers suitable for heavy bike

    Sounds good to me especially as the bikes will be further forward than if 3 were carried so less leverage on the towball. I use a 2 bike carrier for my 40Kg hybrid and its fine.

    Overvolting Pedalease Imortor

    That should be ok for maybe 10 miles or so. Most I had out of my 1000 watt DD hub on 10Ah was 19 miles and that was with me pedalling as much as I could. Throttle only it would run for 9 miles on the flat!

    Pre installation check list

    Latest BBSHDs have a gear sensor wire included. Check if yours has as it works better than using a brake cutout.
