    Which ebike to choose?!

    Do you know if the bottom bracket on those Rocky Mountain Elements is compatible with a BBS01 / 02 ? As @saneagle says, for a mid drive it's probably worth finding a steel replacement cassette (and maybe ebike grade chain)

    Which ebike to choose?!

    Does 2* 48v 20ah batteries affect the handling or the suspension? Where do you mount them both? That must give a huge range

    Which ebike to choose?!

    That's very interesting, what size battery do you use with it and where did you mount it ?

    He wasn't really making money out of YouTube until COVID, his nursing training videos had thousands of views, not millions. The fact that he has written some Nurse training textbooks doesn't make him an expert on pandemics or vaccines

    Which ebike to choose?!

    What makes a good donor bike ? Not sure it is quite the same criteria as choosing an analog bike ? More emphasis on how rugged the components are rather than lightness, particularly the chain / gears in a mid drive that is going to have to cope with several times the power a human could...

    Brake Sensors

    I like the idea of touching the brake lever to activate the brake sensor to change gears on a mid drive going up hill. On my BBS02B (without gear sensor) I seem to able to change down gears on assist levels 1-5 (up to 50% power on my set up ) with the motor driving the chain with no (audible)...

    Not owned one, have bought a kit from Woosh, v good customer service. If I could only have 1 ebike that would probably be the one I would choose

    Is it adjust this with an allen key ? (I think that maybe just adjusts the reach)

    Help! New e-bike for 16 mile commute

    That's very interesting - comparing for instance the Bafang G01 (std) vs G01(Fst) with a 700C wheel - the standard does get you up hills quicker but with 100W human power there is very little difference in the top speeds on the flat. However with 250 or 300 W human power the Fast does pull...

    Help! New e-bike for 16 mile commute

    I'd compared some on the Grin Motor Simulator site that you can get quite different results for different motors so comparing a Aikema G75 with 14A compared to a DGWX with 20A on a 12% slope Not sure how representative that is of your motors and the windings - my XF08C that I got from Woosh...

    I've found "Dutch style" bikes like the Santana very comfortable for 40-50 mile rides

    Help! New e-bike for 16 mile commute

    Looking at the Camino, the handlebars look quite high, looks like a quite upright position to me. The motors are slightly different specs, @Woosh would I be correct speculating the Camino is a slightly better hill climber , when the speed drops ?

    Review Tong Sheng TSDZ2 Owner Survey

    I have this problem with all battery level displays, 36v, 48v, kit based and on my wife's Wisper, It seems like I get a 1/3 of the way through the useable voltage drop before the battery displays move off 100%

    I think any of the bikes mentioned would be able to cope with your weight on those hills with you adding some pedalling effort.

    A pedelec sounds ideal for your commute Can I ask how heavy you are ? Also what sort of gradient are the hills ? - the "predictor" tool on the Woosh bikes website is useful eg Possibly https://wooshbikes.co.uk/?santana3 or https://wooshbikes.co.uk/?camino
