    Kalkhoff BS10 Endeavour

    Sadly my beloved bike is now on eBay. I'm moving house soon and i need to raise some funds for the expected expenses therein. All the details are in the eBay link below, and i'm willing to end the auction early for any member of this forum offering me £1700 for it...

    A few Bosch questions

    The only time i use the walk button is when hauling the heavy beast up to my girlfriend's first floor flat. It's great for that... I did try it, out of curiosity and found it's too fast to keep up with, over 5mph, but maybe it is faster on the 350w motor.

    Gearing finally sorted

    With that gearing it should be capable of climbing walls! :)

    how much faster by eBike.....???

    Maybe the batteries are under rated, this would also help companies live up to their longevity claims. I know in general with my RC batteries, that if i buy a 5000mah pack, it'll usually charge up to 5500-6000mah, at least until it's pretty well used. Due to charging them at very high currents...

    how much faster by eBike.....???

    I cruise at 26-28 most of the time, on either sport or turbo, and i always get at least 20 miles out of it. Usually that's with lots of stop-starts in the city centre, so i'd expect a touch more on rural roads with similar gradients.

    Hmmm, it's a very narrow forum on my 1920 pixel wide screen.

    Johnderh kalkhoff BS10 400 Wh

    I've had mine since September and done around 500 miles one it. No issues to report. There were some loose screws when i got it, so i recommend going around it and checking everything is snug. It's an amazing bike, and you really get places quickly when you can cruise at over 25mph. I've...

    The Rake and Holcombe Hill, second attempt!

    I reported a while after getting my bike that i could not make it up the insane The Rake hill climb, or the even more tough Holcombe Hill without stopping for a rest. So today i tried again with my Leonardi Factory General Lee cassette adapter installed, this allows me to go about 2mph slower at...

    Yes, that's normal, download the codec, it will be fine.

    Aldi HD Action Camera?

    I've not tried it in daylight, but the focus is fine on the original files. I havent tweaked them in any way and YouTube is really killing it. I can easily read the numberplates and road signs on the original.

    Aldi HD Action Camera?

    Christmas has come early ;) Got my Drift Ghost-S yesterday and took it out for a ride through Manchester's rush hour. Er, and yes, i jump a red light early on, by mistake though, it wasnt intentional, i was too busy watching the car and bus. Video quality is exceptional before YouTube gets...

    Aldi HD Action Camera?

    I wouldnt buy a Contour, the company went bust a while ago, so there's no backup for any remaining cameras if you have problems.
