    Pedelec Nirvana

    Prompted by @saneagle's comment - What is your Pedelec Nirvana ? Here's mine 48V 15 A Sine Wave controller with power based PAS levels - plenty of smooth quiet power for the steepest road hills even for people that are not as slim as they used to be Rear Geared Hub motor - something like...

    Pendleton Somerby - how to fix broken cables at rear hub

    I bought a pair of cheapo Shimano MT200s off AliExpress for £35 including delivery (they even swapped them round to Right Front. Left Rear before they sent them for me) My Facebook marketplace £50 15 year old Carrera Vulcan donor bike (that didn't look if it had been used) had cable disk...

    :) Exactly the same - I fitted the MT200 at the front - no maintenance - just as good as the day I got it, I'm getting unimpressed with my rear mechanical disc brake, which I swear has got worse over 2000 miles use and I have a MT200 ready to fit (total convert to hydraulic brakes - bloody...

    You don't need a folder to go up 16% hills if that is your only reason for getting one. I have an ancient Carrera Vulcan with 26" wheels and road tyres with the very commonplace 48v Bafang G020 rear hub kit. (E.g...

    McLaren ebikes...drool...

    True - I wonder how many people that buy the McClaren will use it for hard core MTB ? A lot of my retired friends have £6k Bosch mid motored full suspension bikes and potter along off road trails. They tend to stick in eco to make the battery last the ride. Could probably choose a lower max...

    Anyone ever tried to implement regenerative braking?

    :) This is my lunchtime ride yesterday The big opportunity for regen is that 1.2 mile downhill stretch "Clay Bank", but I can pretty much get down it without touching my brakes - the Roadies seem to go down it no problem with no brakes...
