    So I need to find out if the wooshbike lcd can derestric the motor easily. My bike will only have 8 gears with this kit but thats a lot better than the 2 or sometimes 3 gears depending on the mood of my last bike.

    So Im now looking at buying the BBS02 36V 25A from wooshbikes. Im I right in saying that I would have to lose 2 of my chain rings, so losing most of my gears? Also Is it easy to derestrict the wooshbike motor?

    Hi I feel a bit silly now. The actual max gradient is 22% acording to this great website: http://veloroutes.org/bikemaps Do you think the 350watt woosh bike kit would be able to get me up a 22% elevation?
