    1000w ebike ???

    I,m afraid Morphix you are wasting your time on here. This Forum could exert plenty of influence over the things you mention..Generally posters are apathetic with some defending their freedom to break law to the hilt.. A few take a similar stance but not many. Many argue its been like this...

    Anyone built or successfully using a ducted fan powered electric bike ?

    Yes I agree with that too. There is bound to be a reaction of some kind. For a start the jet is surrounded by moving air helping the free flowing of jet...so yes you are right.. I was under impression RR developed this technology purely for noise suppresion after having lost contracts in USA who...

    W Where abouts Paul ? Must agree I love doing same but I,m going somewhat slower...good day average 12 mph... I don't want or need a dongle, I,d go half as far twice as quick and run out of battery as far as is mathematically possible away from car..ie half way around. Besides dongle doesn't...

    If you read their intro/ rules for pedelecs you,ll notice a 20 mph limit..yes not a great deal but completely different. They also have completely different attitude to "off road"..in that they have one...afraid ours went years ago... So yes it might be international but relevant to uk...not...

    Yep I,m afraid you are right. There is no way on earth National Parks will tolerate bikes capable of 20 mph plus on their tracks. They cant/ wont tell difference between them so it will be end of emtb...( not sure but think there is already s blanket 10mph limit, signs are appearing !) Ranger...

    Anyone built or successfully using a ducted fan powered electric bike ?

    Flecc I was under impression it was purely done in the interests of efficiency ( not sure how) and to blanket the engine in compressed air to suppress noise. I agree with Tillson. Infact there are arguments ( as outlined in post above) to redduce CSA of thrust. Think we are confusing two...

    Anyone built or successfully using a ducted fan powered electric bike ?

    Great post Tillson. Isn't there something about smaller nozle increasing speed of stream and so increasing momentum exchange..yrs I know momentum and ke have to be maintained.....or is momentum exchange constant ( ie pre nozzle lower speed higher cross section/ post nozzle higher speed lower...

    Great idea... Like I,ve said before powerful ebikes are fine, yes Government probably should let us legally ride S Pedelecs or whatever. But fact is at moment they don't, so just think folk should stop telling everybody about doing 35 mph not pedalling, or giving build accounts of 1000w...

    And whilst I,m on my high horse..the off road section sends out completely the wrong message. It implies off road illeggal is ok, or 1000w ok.. It should read on private enclosed land. Off road will be first to suffer in any clamp down. Besides in reality the lower power legal mtb is at a...

    Well perhaps us pointing that out on here will help... But why shouldn't forum reflect this. Shouldn't illegal bike threads but put in right place ???

    Too right on that Flecc...but Government/ National Park authorities don't need EU to ban ebikes..Rangers near us are asking quite pertinent questions already... Mountain bikers are worried they,ll be tarred with us......They look on here and think we cant tell a 250 w Bosch from a 1000w...

    Perhaps you should be asking for the threads about blatantly illegal bikes being closed. Would make much more sense.
