When I switched it on it was about 10 minutes faster ! Yes, I just wanted to see how much "motor drag" affected it when ridden unpowered

When I converted my wife's folding bike , I had a little 9 mile test circuit. Before I did the conversion it was taking me around 40 minutes. After the conversion (1.6 kg akm-75 + Woosh 36v 10ah bag battery 1.8 kg) I tried the same circuit unpowered and it took 27 seconds longer (3 seconds per...

Another idea https://www.merlincycles.com/metroneer-eg-10-comp-gravel-e-bike-282643.html And how to get into the advanced settings https://www.pedelecs.co.uk/forum/threads/metroneer-eg-1-0-comp-gravel-e-bike.46480/post-718713

The other thing to mention is other members here have confirmed that the department of transport has stated that the 10% tolerance on speed limits applies to motor assist cut off. So, if you calibrate your speed via GPS, you could adjust your cut off to 27.5 km/h (assuming your display allows...

Slightly off topic but I have noticed the power output on the display varies with cadence, am I imagining that ?

If you wanted something quite lightweight and just want to use the motor for inclines, and with low resistance when you are not using the motor (and you are not too heavy) this seems a bit of a bargain https://wooshbikes.co.uk/?faro Not sure of the gearing

I'd quite like to do this as an experiment - it wouldn't interfere with the folding I think - I know this is a silly question but how do I find the correct screw thread for the headtube

I would be very interested how the Orbea compares with the £699 16.5kg Woosh Faro (with 8Ah battery) . I know the Orbea has drop handlebars , but I was wondering how much hype there is around the X35. A replacement Woosh battery only costs £199. A new Faro costs less than the Orbea...

Not sure where you got that from, but it did cause me to look it up. We come under the Hambleton administrative area that had 9.5% more deaths in 2020 vs 2019 (compared to the England and Wales average of 14.5%). Some of the poorer urban areas had it much worse, Middlesbrough (our nearest...

Replace it yourself ?

An even more catastrophic number ! https://news.sky.com/video/doctor-describes-trauma-nurses-experienced-during-covid-pandemic-13222513 The vicar in our little North Yorkshire village is retiring, in his final newsletter he recounts how he conducted 84 funerals during 2020.

Just musing about battery placement - my mother in law is quite petite so I think a 36V 10Ah battery will be fine I was thinking about a seat post battery, either mount it on the seat post , underneath the saddle, or on the handlebar tube , or wondering if I could do something with this...

Last time I looked , it was £500 in the UK for the sale price of the Switch kit. eta The Swytch Go (180Wh) is £359, sale price, (if you sign up to a waiting list ! )- that is a very small battery. There is Go+ (280Wh) and Go++ (370Wh). Woosh do a front hub wheel, sensor (with the option of a...

This one has been mentioned before. Torque sensor 360Wh battery, very light https://www.merlincycles.com/metroneer-eg-10-comp-gravel-e-bike-282643.html

yeah - seems ok for £200 - quite funky BMXy looking. My mother in law will look very cool cycling round Didsbury :)
