    New Kalkhoff S Pedelec

    I used to have a Kalkhoff S- Pedelec with the Impulse motor. Despite all the issues with the Impulse motor, it was a great bike. Its gone now and I have been getting by with a bike with a cytronex kit. Its great for what it is, but it cannot do long steep hills in North Wales ( overheating)...

    How to replace Kalkhoff Impulse motor

    The impulse motor on my Kalkhoff has finally given up - it now has short periods when the pedals turn but there is no drive to the wheels. This can only get worse so it seems I need a new motor. It so happens that we have another, but rarely used Kalhoff, also with an impulse motor, in the...

    Cheaper supplementary batteries?

    I wonder if anyone had experimented with this sort of battery to supplement their ebike power. It claims to be a 12AH Lithium Ion battery for £70 which is dramatically less than an ebike battery. I am not sure how this works with different voltages - does this equate to just 4AH on a 36V...

    n+1 pedelec bike with throttle required.

    My wife has a Kalkhoff Agattu ebike which she loves to ride - although the motor gets a bad press for reliability we have had no problems with ours so far.

    Hi, My wife has a Kalkhoff "Agattu Premium Impulse 8" with the Impulse 2 motor. She finds she cannot keep going on long hills due to a lack of strength, and has to stop and rest.

    Electric bike rider run down by fashion designer

    Not exactly what I would call "careless driving" more like dangerous driving since she admits she deliberately knocked him off his bike. http://www.standard.co.uk/news/crime/stars-fashion-designer-knocked-cyclist-off-bike-after-he-kicked-her-audi-tt-10145932.html

    Kalhoff battery range indication

    Does anyone here know how the "computer" on Kalkhoff bikes calculates the range remaining for the battery at each power level? I know that on my car the remaining miles is calculated from the amount of fuel remaining and the recent mpg. This has the odd effect that if you start driving more...
