    Wow wonder where I could get one of these? but guess it would be illegal to use in the UK :-( Going to see if my Brabus legs can get me to these speeds on my bike :) https://www.electricbike.com/brabus/

    What speed can you reach after power cut out at 15mph using leg power?

    In truth I am enjoying my bike a lot but it is a touring bike for elite people, not a racing bike, I feel that soon I will want to move on to something as you mention that may allow a clutch to be used to disengage the assist, as an ex commando I like the aggressive side of biking and pushing...

    What speed can you reach after power cut out at 15mph using leg power?

    I agree on the short burst and gearing, thats why I am moving to a 20 cog from 22 at my next service, but that doesn't get around the resistance at 15.5mph but will enable faster leg power speed which is a work out in itself. I have used regeneration going down very steep hills, it almost acts...

    What speed can you reach after power cut out at 15mph using leg power?

    My reason for the test was more fun after seeing it yesterday, I get frustrated when I hit the assist cut off because on clear roads I am ready to move along a little quicker, I just hit resistance over 15.5mph which is annoying, its like hitting glue but power can drive through albeit for me a...

    What speed can you reach after power cut out at 15mph using leg power?

    I was out today and I set off an auto speed sign that shows your speed, I was shocked I firstly I didn't think it would pick up a pedal bike, and secondly that it showed 22mph, that has given me the incentive to go back tomorrow and see if I can beat that, also keep an eye on my speedo. If...

    I beat the rain today.

    I'm glad I live in London, that looks awful, goodness knows what diseases you got on your bike, no civilisation near, mud and all that scary space, I like clinical cycle tracks where I don't get any dirt on my Daimler Mercedes Designer Smart eBike, I just can't imagine even walking in that...

    Should I change my teeth? Designer Daimler Mercedes Benz Smart eBike

    I was in a bike shop only today (no eBikes sold there), it is dire in the cycle industry at the moment from what I am told, I heard the same a couple of months ago before I went to France, very few new bikes are being sold, they can't even get rid of second hand bike at give away prices...

    Should I change my teeth? Designer Daimler Mercedes Benz Smart eBike

    Yes it will fit you no problem at all, they come in one size. Re transport to Aus, you will have a problem due to the battery, the only way would be by land (out of the question really) and sea I believe. It would need to be crated up and advice sought re the battery packing. I bought a huge...
