^^ this. Not sure where you're based but the Birmingham NEC show on 27th- 29th September is less than 2 weeks away and there's an E-bike village where you can see, sit on and try out a load of bikes. The exhibitor list is here : Cycle Show 2013 - Electric Bike area If you line up a few that...

Maybe so for a non-eBike. But for a PAS sensor bike, especially if you ride clipped in, this is very unnatural and awkward. Also, using the pedals to get back on your seat when pulling away makes you much more likely to trigger the motor during the process with unintended results as to initial...

I know what you mean about the adjuster dial on the handlebars, but if my hazy memory serves the idea is to...

Glad to hear Eddie's enjoying life :). It would be quite a shock if he wasn't going to have a Bosch unit powering his 2014 e-bike ! It does make me chuckle a bit that you need a separate battery to power your derestrictor. Went to so much trouble to get rid of separate batteries on lights, have...

It's a shame they don't fit racks designed like the Topeak ones which have a secondary bar to fix your pannier hooks onto a little below the top of the rack and a little bevelled out to the side. You can see the design on this ...
