I find rucksack better than panniers. Take the (folding ? ) bike in with you wherever you go ?

I would be inclined to go with the TSDZ8 although I think the TSDZ2 would cope. My sister uses it all the time for long steep climbs with no problems. I think it is a better engineered, better designed, better made and more resilient motor

Woosh do a beefy DWG22C 48V 60NM rear hub rated at 250w (201rpm at 48v iirc)

Oh 905, yes possibly

Yeah, the only manufacturer 250w rated akm-128 motors I've seen are on Wisper 705 / 905 / maybe others You do see them occasionally for spares / repairs

Where will you order it from?

She was queen of the hills on the 48v TSDZ8, nobody could keep up with her up the hills. She did say on the flat the Boshers seemed to have a slightly higher motor assist cut out speed (I'd set her bike to 15.5 mph) I wondered if they were taking advantage of the 10% tolerance ? I'd be...

@Nealh has said it happened to him and permanently damaged the controller

oh this one does a 100m external routed one which looks like would fit a small seat post tube https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005008260975824.html

I've only hit this problem going up very steep hills, slowly (<7 mph) in max assist level.

When the temperature goes too high on mine, (KT) the power stops completely or greatly reduces , the display looks normal

thanks - yes I did have a look at those, but the smallest size I could find was 125mm range which I think the post will be too long

Hi all, So I posted on here a few months ago about converting a bike for my sister's coast to coast ride. She did it, all went very well, she was the only one on a converted e-bike amongst all the Bosch e-bikes. She wanted a dropper post fitted , so it's an extra small frame, so I was thinking...

There's quite a lot of us that have converted bikes, either using hub motors or mid drive kits. The bikes with mid drive kits seem fine for off roading, even going up rough, steep inclines quite slowly, but I would probably draw the line at big jumps, I think you are then in the realm of Bosch...
