    Specialized turbo X modding???

    That's what I said "YOU" i.e. you, yourself,... cannot de-restrict a Go SwissDrive the Eproms are in the controller which is in the motor. How can I be more clear? There is a lady on the forum who has a Stromer with a de-restricted Go SwissDrive motor and she wants to go legal. You don't mind...

    Specialized turbo X modding???

    You can't de-restrict a go SwissDrive you have to get the s-pedelec version. The reason being that the controller is inside the motor and there is no external speed detector or options you can get to from the LCD. Just thought: you could swap motors with the lady who has a Stromer ST1 s-pedelec.

    CONEBI S Pedelec testing - report Jan 2015

    I have had this file for quite a while. Of interest is the failure of trekking bike components to pass stress testing. If you are building an s-pedelec use MTB components! Interesting document.

    sugestions for full rear mudguard 26" mtb not seatpost mount

    With longer bolts the mudguard can share the mount with the rack. SKS here too but I have the street version nice and snug against road tyres.

    Maximising range

    37.7 mph here. On 26" wheels I feel safe at 35-38 mph. Over that speed I am going to want bigger wheels and suspension up front. Back on topic: use the assistance levels like you would your front derailler. On the flat and small hills I use level 2 of 5. 5 on steep climbs and 0 or 1 on downhill...
