    Add-e, Go-e or Hidden power kit

    Oh look! A battery in a bag... :rolleyes: That looks like a Q85 motor from bmsbattery. Small problem: every time you remove the bag you have to unplug the wires to the controller, believe me you will be bored with that about the second or third time. If they have 3.5 kg with battery then they...

    North Road handlebars - black

    It' a German thing... I think they crash test handlebars or something. They are working towards normalising every part of bikes, lucky us the Dutch don't agree so stupid security levels won't be imposed on the rest of Europe. Don't get me wrong I am all for safety standards but just not...

    Add-e, Go-e or Hidden power kit

    That is what your Dahon will weigh converted without the battery... And just over 16 kg with. That is a very light bike. Where are you going to be lifting it? Into car, remove battery lift 14 kg into car.

    Micro connectors?

    He isn't cheap but he has a lot of cool stuff. I looked at the higo connectors but it is only worth my while if I had internal cable routing. Yeah well you could make a very pretty controller from a big standard one I guess.

    Location for 52v battery pack

    For the moment mine is in a pannier and the weight is just above the axle. It is in an aluminum toolbox with a stainless ring bolted to put a cable through. So it can be stolen by a well equipped thief. What he will then do with 4 lipo bricks... Maybe try and cut the wires? That would be fun to...

    Silence

    Imagining you riding along with a boom box on full volume thinking to yourself "Hey! I can't hear the motor" kind of funny :D

    Guest Bike Conversion

    Magura HS11 will fit you to a T. But I wonder if those rims will like the extra pressure?

    Question about tyres

    Just back from the LBS the lady has just ordered a set of Mondials for a client who wants to do just what you do. She said as they are a new 2016 tyre they aren't cheap. Here is the fitting information: http://www.schwalbe.com/en/reifenmasse.html As your bike has a 40-622 a 50-662 should fit...

    Question about tyres

    I did a few km on gravel with my Big Bens the other day. Didn't enjoy it, reminded me of all those crashes I had as a kid in NZ where you had to ride 7 km before getting to a sealed road... The Mondial in 47-622 should be just fine for your use, well spotted.
