My sisters Crossfuse has the same Active line plus motor as my Cube acid one, the only difference being my 500 battery vs her 400. Both cost less than 2K and ride pretty much the same and both capable of 40 miles but my 500 battery has a lot more juice left after a 35mile ride. I’d happily buy...

do you know any engineers ? If it was my bike I’d strip it down to just the frame, put said frame on a milling machine and bore it out to size. Alternatively, I’d spend a few hours with a drum sander in a pistol drill ! https://www.toolstation.com/drum-sanding-kit/p15110

Hi Mark, I’m a similar weight an have 60-622 big apples on my acid one. my pressures are 35 psi rear & 25 front for the road bu when I go off the beaten track, I’ll drop down to 25 x 20 maybe a little less.

No it’s not a recommendation as I’ve never had a need for such a product. There are also such things as waterproof helmet bags available.

this one has two holes for a padlock (on the left of the latch) https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/323795390363?hash=item4b63b58f9b:g:95YAAOSw28Bcyqv- if it’s just your helmet you’re worried about you could simply put a cable lock through one of the many holes in the helmet and lock it to your bike...

Hi folks, 6 of these used Drift USB power banks came my way for only a small outlay. Initially I thought they were made up from 18650 cells and i could strip them to use the cells in other applications that use 18650’s like my 8.4v lights. Alas, the description on the case says “polymer...

You may as well ask Kawasaki, Honda, Suzuki etc to make there motorcycles with interchangeable motors or Bosch and Black&Decker to use the same batteries. There’s no financial incentive for any manufacturer to make there products live any longer than the designed life. They don’t even have...

Mike I’m afraid you’re thinking of the wrong type of clamp. Rob’s clamp doesn’t have a serrated part, it has a solid top clamp plate and a smooth floating bottom plate. The two clamp screws adjust the angle of the saddle, as you tighten up one screw, you loosen the other to achieve the desired...

I have the same problem, What saddle are you using ? Wittkop medicus trekking has been mentioned favourably on this site in the past, I have 2 on the bike i ride for hours at a time but I still wear padded shorts On long rides (2 to 5 hours) alternatively, I’ve a big ass saddle on my cruiser...

Yes indeed, my 57-622 Smart Sam’s are more than happy on 20c rims and on another bike I have 60-622 Big Apples on 19mm rims, I must admit the frame clearance is only 3mm but it’s a cruiser so doesn’t go in the mud ;)

Here’s Schwalbe’s fitment chart so you can see what width of tyre fits on different rim widths

The alternative tyres you mentioned are available in different sizes, not just 42-622 (42 is the width of the tyre in millimetres and 622 is the diameter of the rim it fits) your biggest limitation will be frame clearance, you need to see how much space there is between your current tyres and...

Also an ALP owner. I had the same problem and used a short counter sunk head hex bolt to plug the hole, I can’t remember for sure the size as I have screws and bolts scattered throughout my garage, maybe 6mm or 8mm. Also as the cranks can be blumin tight, I warm them with a hot air gun first...

just spotted this and I thought some may find it interesting...

I don’t fully understand this statement, have you actually removed 3 cells from the battery so it no longer has the correct amount of cells to work properly ? And what did you do regarding the BMS. has the bike worked since you did this ?

Probably from the same thread bu here’s what I did with my acid one (on post number 37) https://www.pedelecs.co.uk/forum/threads/cube-acid-400-chainring-upgrade.34673/page-2

I don’t believe it’s possible. As Bosch motors, controllers and batteries communicate with each other in order for the system to work it’s highly unlikely/completely unlikely that a Bosch battery will work with anything other than a Bosch motor. if you’re desperate to make use of the Bosch...
