    Bike Rack for Car.

    I've just bought a car fitted with a towbar, I'd like to have a Rack for to carry my EBike, can I get a rack to fit on the "Swan-Neck" type of towball? I think it might be a bit expensive to change that to the Two-bolt Flange type. Regards, Robin.

    Conversion Candidate?

    Thanks Kirstin, I was only "wondering out loud" and at present I'll avoid the Classified section which seems plagued with gremlins eg auto-repeats of peoples ads. I might even convert it myself with a simple front hub motor and take it to Norfolk where my daughter lives. Robin.

    A Bit Slow!

    Thanks for those replies, it's a mid-drive motor, but I guess thete still must be some effort needed to spin it when it's not "motoring", yes I'd love to pedal harder, but at 77 and with C.O.P.D that is a bit of an ask. I only posed the original question because 15.5 mph is significantly...

    A Bit Slow!

    I wish! It seems that once I've gone beyond 15.5mph the Ebike gets much harder to pedal compared with my "conventional" hybrid Dawes, even on the flat with no headwind, I guess there must be some drag due to the motor?

    A Bit Slow!

    Thanks LeighPing, over the moon to get such a quick reply, but, I'm a dummy here, how do I go about finding/getting a dongle? My bike has a Bafang mid-drive motor.

    Hi, I've recently bought a Freego Martin City, yes I did get a good deal! It's a great bike but I do have a naughty hankering to go maybe 20 mph with PAS, any suggestions? Cheers,Robin.
