    Downtube battery on a step-through frame - is it safe?

    Bought this frame to build a new bike, but now it's here I've started to worry about whether it's a good idea to mount the battery on the downtube? A step through frame is already less structurally sound than a diamond frame, and electric bikes with step through frames always seem to have the...

    Are Enerprof batteries any good? (or any other eBay battery seller recommendations)

    Could anyone share their experience with Enerprof batteries (or even better, their ebay store)? Specifically the quality of the thing and how its held up over time? Or failing that, any recommendations for battery sellers on eBay? I need a new (48v) one, and there's 10% off on eBay until...

    Where to buy step-through frame to build ebike?

    I'd really like to convert my ebike to a step through frame, does anyone know where I could find one? I've been looking on ebay, but having trouble finding one with horizontal dropouts, disc brake mounts, and preferably a battery cage behind the seat tube. Bike stores seem to just have road...

    Trouble fitting disc brakes to XF08c kit from Woosh

    As per title, I received the XF08c kit today, but I can't get my caliper/carrier combination to fit With the standard mounting (caliper on the inside of the dropout) the carrier fouls the motor, but even if it didn't it would put the caliper way past the brake disc I thought of mounting...

    Conversion kit to match Carrera Vulcan

    I started a thread the other day about finding a suitable kit to help me get up a particular hill in my town. Someone in that thread suggested getting a test ride from Halfords so I could see how it dealt with this specific hill. I did that today and it felt like exactly the level of...

    Cheap kit to make a big hill feel like a small hill?

    Hi, I work for a Deliveroo, and I deliver in a town where the student campus is on top of a big hill. I have a bad back and I can only go up that hill 2 or 3 times before it gets painful, so I'm looking for an ebike kit that will help make this big hill feel more like a small hill (I'm about...
