I've found in my pre ebike days that I only really needed at most 3 bikes - a MTB, a road bike and a hybrid bike. Then I entered the world of ebikes, and now I have convinced myself I need: a mountain ebike, a hybrid ebike, a small wheeled folding ebike, a cheap ebike (argos), and one...

The Guy Martin of the ebike world !

I had a big off a couple of years ago, ran out of talent on a greasy patch of off road chalk trail, went down hard, broke 3 ribs, bashed up shoulder etc etc. Took a few months of recovery and a few more of physio, but was back on the bike after about 4 months, albeit quite nervously for the 1st...

I think it might be this one, but double check and check again and shop around for a better price, search Phylion Joycube SF-03, you should be able to get a similar one from yosepower, pswpower or aliexpress for cheaper...

Happy Christmas all. Good to see more and more ebikes on the roads. Wishing all forum members good will and thanks to the forum owners for continuing to run the pedelec forums in 2024 and into 2025

I've been using the same AliExpress seller for ebike batteries for the last 5 years. The batteries I have purchased over the years from them are well built with Samsung/LG cells and are still delivering the same great performance/range as they were new after a lot of use. Great comms, good...

There's probably a theoretical equation that can work out the extra effort required by yourself when comparing the max torque of your current Trek's cx motor (85Nm) and the nax torque of the sx motor (55Nm) minus the approx 10kg weight difference in the two bikes. Perhaps try riding up some of...

This is 22kg so no lightweight but has probably the most powerful legal motor 108Nm and a big 720wh battery (480wh on small frame size) and now reduced to £1999 so huge saving...

I stumbled across this article earlier comparing lightweight eMTBs, might be useful https://ebike-mtb.com/en/light-e-mtb-test/

I'm still running my BBS01 36v 250w motors at 15a, so peak power is 540w which I find is enough for me. Does your motor run very hot at 20a, particularly in the summer, and, say, after a long hill climb ? I'd be a little concerned I might be shortening the life of the motor and/or my batteries...

I originally bought the bike not with the intention of converting, but couldn't resist the deal with the spec of the bike. The original chainwheel was a 32t, so I thought I would get chainline issues, but as it turned out, it's running sweeter with the stock 44t bafang chainwheel, which is...

I've just finished my latest conversion for some off road fun, brand new Forme Curbar Pro 29er MTB hardtail (£230 deal on ebay) with a Bafang BBS01b 250w 36v middrive (my new spare motor picked up on a deal at about £200 a couple of years ago) and 17.5ah battery (one of my existing). Weighs in...

Baz, not sure if you are after a new carrera compatible battery ? - this one fits the original crossfire-e and similar other previous design carrera vengence ect. Comes with charger, and new mounting kit (you won't need that if using existing mount). It's a simplier design so you don't get to...

So Sir Chris says... "“I envisage somebody with an old, tatty bike that they’ve had for years, or maybe they just bought on eBay — something that they’re happy to leave locked up outside their office,” Hoy said. “Nobody’s going to bother stealing it, or even look twice at it. But then, they can...

I run Schwalbe Energiser Plus in all weathers, good puncture proof, low rolling resistance and good grip in the wet

I'm familiar with that view in the bath during my time trying to break in a Brooks B17 !

Aaagghh !!! That quill handlebar stem !! I cannot unsee it now, burnt onto my retinas. Make it go away, PLEEEEEASE !!!

Currently I'm seeing 8% quidco cashback being offered for millets. Yep agree about the fork, but at least it's an Air fork so I'd expect it to be better than the cheap pogo stick Suntour forks.
