    How many people are using there e-bike off-road?

    After an amazing ride on Wednesday with my ride buddy, I went tonight for an equally superb ride in the rain and mud. There were pretty tough conditions tonight. https://www.strava.com/activities/369008956 I can't wait for winter, with my favourite riding conditions. :) A sight that will have...

    They were quite an unexpected find, but sadly they didn't hang around for very long.

    Yet another evening well spent exploring new routes in readiness for winter riding.

    Wish i could have helped a little more :(

    Lidl's sometimes have a cheap and cheerful tool kit/saddle bag combo for about a fiver. The bag isn't bad, but requires a key ring to prevent the zip from working it's way open. The tools are just about functional, but are definately better than nothing, and can just be added to, or changed over...

    Actually, he is getting two. His and hers. :) Whilst I ride with two or three other people on peddle mtb's during the week day evenings, It'll be great having someone else with an e-mtb on my door step to ride with.

    Bike too long to mount on a carrier?

    I have also witnessed the carnage left behind when several bikes and a rack fell off onto a motorway. With that in mind, I have two cable locks that run through the bike frame, rack, and then down through the towbar bracket. I'd never be able to live with myself if an incident such as the one...

    Bike too long to mount on a carrier?

    Not that there is any real benefit to it, but I usually add a couple of those wrap around ankle/arm reflectors to each wheel.

    One of my neighbours is thinking about buying an e-mtb, so where better to start than a lovely evening spent riding mine, whilst I used the utterly superb Ultra 1964. Pooh Bridge.

    Haibike Fully 2014 - Caution: Loose rear screws!

    As I said, preventative and correct maintenance, is all that it takes.

    Haibike Fully 2014 - Caution: Loose rear screws!

    I'd sooner just carry out preventative, correct and regular maintenance.

    New Bosch Coming!

    The article doesn't even show the right motor and battery combination. Where is the price of a 500wh battery?

    I'd still use heli tape, or just not worry about it.

    Heli tape. Nice sunny day for it. :) It looks as though your suspension settings are too hard. You are both only using half of the available travel.

    Another lovely looking area. Getting lost is just part of the fun. I've found some very good routes whilst getting lost. I only had time for short ride this evening and filmed the first sections two mins from my house. Annoyingly, I had the chest mount set up perfectly whilst on holiday, but...

    Equally, the other guy should have, or could have carried some basic tools. my little kit, http://www.pedelecs.co.uk/forum/threads/and-the-kitchen-sink.19998/ the poncho has now gone, and been replaced with a proper pocket size cycling mac.

    Well compiled ride. :) Also a very healthy distance to have ridden. Sadly I'm having to grab evenings only for my rides, and unusually for me, have been lacking a bit of motivation. The forest section looks very much like the terrain that I often ride. Off piste is always good, and opens up far...

    Probably also the angle of the photo, but will you even get a 200mm disc in there? It looks tight on the swingarm.

    E-Ram

    I realise that, but the point that I was making was that they had left this minor detail out, when referring to weight. I don't know what a complete Oxygen kit weighs, but I bet that the figure won't be so far removed from this kit. Possibly 1- 1.5kg of difference? To my mind a product would...
