Review off Cytronex kit My wife and I, have been around and toying with electric conversions for touring bikes for quite some years now. Starting with cheap Chinese front wheel conversions with just a hand throttle, which not unexpectedly,didn't last very long. We then progressed to a pair of...

Orbea Ribble, or C1 conversion as lightweight options The problem with Orbea and Ribble is that the bikes are still “live” when locked up......more stealable than removing battery on C1 or removing display on Bosch/Yamaha The other problem is having the bring the whole bike inside for...

has anyone figured out just how to enlarge Haibike LCD LEFT HAND + and - speed/power buttons, to allow using them without having to look down They are so small, and one can feel barely any button to push against The Bosch buttons/paddles are far better, even usable with gloves on. I Araldited...

Bought just 2 months ago from Cambridge E-bikes, so almost full 2 year warranties, and just 70 miles or so on the odo Basically buying them seemed like a good idea....but was a mistake. At 78 years old, a good pair of walking boots and top of the range back packs would have been a more...

Having had out KTM MACINA s stolen, I am considering replacing them with Cannondale/Cytronex, in the full knowledge that better priced and better specced donor bikes are available elsewhere, Even Decathlon B’Twin. Lightness, plus excellent Dec 2017 forensic review in A2B mag. are very...

Wife and I cycled into London Town this afternoon, and securely chained 2 KTM Machinas to dedicated railings We used one Arbus Granit D Lock plus cable for front wheel and one very chunky cable, plus front wheel extension. One hour later, both stolen, and locks left unbelievably on the ground ...

Having had a Nano Brompton conversion bike for a few years, and rarely using it except for sticking it in the car, and using it to get home while the car is serviced, I decided to sell it as a complete bike. Getting the car serviced recently, and the bike got me up some steep hills and home...

I have an early nano brompton that has not been used for quite some time. However after a long battery charge it worked fine to get me 6 miles to get my car serviced, but wouldnt start at all when picking the car up, even after a days battery charge and lights coming on at throttle. It seemed...

My wife has a 6 speed Nano Brompton, converted by Tony Castle some time ago. As she now enjoys here KTM with large stable wheels, the bike has been unused for quite sometime, except for my using it to drop the car of for servicing, and 6 mile return trip.....but battery has been charged up...

I have a 2012 KTM Macina Race which has been great. My wife now has KTM Cross which she likes very much. The Race has 26" wheels and one would/might expect Schrader valves as max pressure is 55 psi, but it has Presta valves. The Cross, on the other hand, has 700c wheels and fairly high...

A good friend is mesmerised with a new Gocycle http://www.gocycle.com/Product_s/123.htm I have pushed him towards a Kalkoff/KTM/Haibike as a reliable 8 mile commuter, but as he drives an electric Smart, he is overwhelmed with the 'coolness' rating of the Gocyle what would this...

My wife,s KTM Macina 10 has started to show a fault code 503 This relates to the speed sensor on the back drop[ out, and after adjusting the spoke magnet was hoping for the best. But no. The bike still has Power, but has no speed or distance registering. The fault showed up after a heavy...

could this little device be the answer to the long commute/recreational ride.....or flat battery in the car or the phone, or ipad??? microstartxp3 | Antigravity Batteries looks fascinating

With the help of David from electrifyingbicycles, and Col from KTM industries, the KTM Macina Cross 10, was found to be the best replacement for my wife’s (unfortunately) oversized Macina Cross Nexus 8...

when buying a new Bosch bike, from a long term point of view, does the more expensive 400W Bosch battery make better long term sense than the lower initial cost of the 300w unit... rides would never be more than 35 miles, which with reasonable rider input, would be easily covered by either...

This is probably not the correction forum to talk about this bike, but, nevertheless, here we go I bought a new Machina Cross for my wife in May this year, and she has been delighted with it. The excellent David, at ElectrifyingCycles was the supplying dealer. My wife had a choice...
