Hi, I originally posted this in General Discussions, in reply to someone advising that Cube ebikes are poorly specced & there are better options out there... Can you point me to ANY 'class 2' ebike (70/30% road/light-trail suitable) with a Bosch performance CX mk4 motor that sells for less...

Morning all - Long time, no post - Been too busy enjoying myself ☺. After ~7 years of cobbling together bikes & kits, bit the bullet & invested in a brand spanking 2018 Cube Reaction Hybrid pro. Having put 12,000 miles on it in 3 years, decided 'twas time for a new one & marched into Clive...

Morning all, Just a note to update any long-standing members: It''s been 8 or 9 years now, since I put that 1st bafang conversion on a 2nd-hand Carrera & I've done a few miles, chugging around mid-Cornwall on a variety of steeds since then. Currently on a Cube Reaction with a Bosch CX: Had it...

It's been more than 18 months since I last posted on the forum, mainly because my focus shifted from being an ebike enthusiast to a bike-riding enthusiast. However, I now have a bit of a problem and, knowing which side my bread's buttered, decided this should be the place to ask for advice. The...

2012 Volton Alation Electric Bike Review: Nice looking bike with frame-integrated battery _ Boring Yank video :rolleyes:

Tapatalk is struggling with the campsite wifi :mad: For some reason, uploaded spurious files, refused to upload this one & wouldn't let me edit the post!?

Got my chores done & managed to go awol, on the bouncer for an hour, while the better half prepared dinner this afternoon. Absolutely like a kid with a new toy; off-piste for the first time, on tracks we've walked for 40 years, but took on a totally new aspect on the bike. Enjoyed myself so...

Thought I'd submit a short resume of my E-Bouncer build... 03 09 2014 – Ordered Bpm2 (200rpm) built into a 26” wheel; S-12s controller; Lcd3 display etc. from BmsB. 12 09 2014 – Order shipped through Fedex. 18 09 2014 09:50 – Order delivered :o) On unpacking, it was obvious the box was open...

Evening all, My Bpm2, S12S controller & Lcd3 display arrived this morning :-) and I've got it all fitted & working. As I'll be using the bike solely for offroad, mainly singeltrack, the last thing I need is to carry-on over the summit of a big climb with the throttle stuck wide open; which is...

We'll never convince these guys they need a motor :confused: The commentary is err, insightful.

As I've decided to put a bpm in the back wheel of my old bouncer, I thunk it would be a good time to fettle the bike a bit: It's shortcomings have been brought to light since I've been riding its unpowered replacement (a 2007 GT i_drive comp); most noticeable being the way its @rse boings up...

Morning all, Time has come to replace the gng chain drive motor on my full-suspension MTB. I use the bike strictly for single track, forest and trail-centre riding: No road work whatsoever, and the gng is a raucous beast that makes it obvious to anyone within quite an extensive radius that I'm...

Is anyone using this version of Tapatalk? I've just had to replace my tablet computer & the new one runs android 4.4 (kitkat), which has this version of Tapatalk. Previously, it displayed the most recent posts from all sub-forums on one screen, but this version seem not to. Does anyone know if...

A salutory tale... Yesterday I was enjoying a hurtle down my favourite route to town, glanced at the speedo & was gratified to see 42mph, when there was a loud SNAP, a vicious lurch & an overwhelming urge to stop & see what had occurred: It had got caught in the back wheel, but luckily broke...

We're having a few days away on Exmoor & this afternoon were walking down Hawk Coombe into Porlock, when a flock of fit-looking blokes on, mostly high-end, mtbs came charging past on their way up the coombe. It was good to have them all thank us for moving over & keeping the dog sat as they...

I really owe this lad an apology for nipping past him - Twice. I just hope the link thingy works - It's all a bit beyond me :confused: www.youtube.com/watch?v=PmeYeayqSy8&feature=youtu.be Nope - Didn't work: Oh yes it did. Finally got it to work - Thanks Shemozzle :D PS. Keep the volume low...

http://www.cornish-alpine-ebikes.co.uk/review.html I've finally got round to writing-up a review of the Ezee kit, as fitted to my Trek Mamba. I've put it on my website to save bandwidth on the forum. I just hope the link works :cool:

Just a diary note for anyone in Cornwall over the weekend: The new Cycle Hub at Lanhydrock House has its grand opening at 10.00 this Saturday, 15th feb. 10k of cycle trail, probably mostly flat, but not sure, as they won't let anyone on the track yet. Aimed at beginners & families, with bike...

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-25926572 What an absolute disgrace. The helmet debate will roll on... But what about the 2nd. Objection - Thou shalt cycle not more than half a metre from the edge of the carriageway? I've always understood the dft to reccommend cycling at least 60cm...

Sorry, can't post the utube video link for this, so I give up. I'll maybe start posting again when the forum lets me post with android & win 8.1
