That looks great. I wish to have something like this but usually 16" wheels are too slow.

what is the bike weight, speed and distance?

 

[Tex]

About 13/14kgs. I get approx 30ks with two 2300 packs at 25kph.

Specs seem good. Exept the speed. Do you know if it's possible to increase the speed to 35-45km/h?

Saw it on The Gadget Show last night, the large bag hanging on the front didn't look very stealty though.

The presenter said it had a range of 60 miles.

60?!

The one from the Gadget show is a nano-brompton. This one is I think smaller.

Also, for the 60 miles ranges I think you'll need peddle assistance. This distance wouldn't be reachable on full throttle.

Pretty much the same as my DIY one.

Full thread HERE

Mine had the added facilities of cutout brakes, kill switch and cable parking when the bag is removed.

Bike 13kg, bag approx 3kg with A123 Battery.

As pointed out not the most powerfull machine but definately one of the quietest, lightest and most portable ebikes around.

Brompton have announced their version of an EBrompton due in limited release in the next month or so.
