It should have come with the bike :mad: that really annoys me. Here pay big £s for your bike you will love it P.S. if you need the brakes set bring it back to your dealer :mad: My brakes were a kit I mounted and the Torx key is of course in my onboard tool kit.

shemozzle999 since when have customers really counted? :eek:

Just noticed the stand is that a problem for a BB motor?

What is that chain guard made from? Looks like a fabric of some kind? If it is: - Scrap it - mount a BB kit - add another chain guard that works with your BB motor That rear rack is too fabulous to scrap so that you can put a battery rack there, put your battery in a pannier bag.

I know, I know, I know :D You have to release the brake from the fork and push the pads in so they touch the rim. Squeeze the brake lever gently so that there is 1 mm gap then reattach the brake. It may take you one or two tries to get it right. There is a good video on YouTube that shoes the...

I can't answer this on an open forum, one never knows what the future may hold. I'll just say that after studying French and EU pedelec laws and using a particular form of French business it is possible. Please, you are English... noun: donor; plural noun: donors synonyms: giver, contributor...

It is no good then... My motor starts after the third magnet has passed the sensor i.e. about 1/3 of a rotation. The kick in isn't sudden - unless you are in assistance level 5 and the battery is fully charged in which case yes, you will be shot forward against the nearest hard object. You only...

It isn't about the money! I wrote a business plan for building tailor made pedelecs, I don't have the capital to start so it isn't going to happen, my target was to sell up to 35 bikes a year from a starting price of 2300€. I could imagine building a one off for someone with deep pockets for...

I'm ready :)

I have seen a Porche 944 towing a caravan in real life :eek:

100€ for me on that link trex. Supernova lights 300€, integrated rack and mudguards lets say we choose wingees 130 € a Keyde lightweight kit $790 on a decent road bike like the one I saw in Irun 970€ Lightweight isn't cheap. Closer to 2000€ than 1000€ I think

I am on the Coboc site and the Seven Vesterbro... Be still my heart! 52 - 17 + 250 W, now you are talking my language! :rolleyes: And 15. 4 kilos...

I think that a small format touch screen tablet instead of the cheap Chinese console supplied with kits is a good idea. It is connecting a small computer to your controller and you get the added functions computer control can bring. I would prefer a USB connection over Bluetooth because the...

An example of range with a 10.4 A bottle battery with Samsung cells 77-78 kg supply quite a bit of effort Have a very big hill on my usual route and wind from time to time 250W (15A) motor Yesterday when I left home there was 26 km on the odo and when I got home 69 km and after recovery from...

Instant on my bike as soon as the pedals stop turning. The motor spins down but stops drawing power. I unfortunately tested this afternoon a young lady pulled out from a stop sign in front of me. Of course I blocked the brakes and as soon as the back locked up instant stoppy and I almost went...

My brake levers are still in the box with the throttle... Never had any problem in 2000 km.

Thanks for the correction I modified the price of the brake conversion for hydraulic cantis. There is a huge weight savings with hydraulics if you are aiming at staying below 15 kg. My next build will have hydraulic rim brakes saving unsprung weight in the front wheel and almost 1 kg in weight...

The French are just as good as the Italians when it comes to electronics. The make you mostly see on flat bed trucks here is Peugeot, I had friends who had Peugeots and well you just stopped asking where their car was (answer: at the garage). Now when it comes to electronics the Germans... oh...

There is an 11 A version of the Raptor and for 199€ the brakes can be swapped for Magura hydraulics which are lighter than and just as powerful as mechanical disks.

If they make it in Yellow without the stupid graphics it would get me going back to the petrol station, 65 kg! It just needs a rack and some pannier bags, oh and a dongle to get over 45 kph... :D
