Sorry, yes, a rack battery. 48v. This one (apologies to @Woosh for stealing a photo from your website, I'll remove it if you like):

Hello everyone. I've got a Whoosh supplied Shengyi hub, which I really love. Completely hassle free transport. I have another frame I'd like to transfer the kit to - it has a much larger triangle inside the frame and the battery would easily fit inside the frame and make the bike far easier to...

Yeah, I see the advantages, especially with the rack battery on my bike. I'm just reluctant to have two bikes with batteries to fail and they're the pricey bit - I am not sure I'd get enough use from two bikes, one of them would probably end up being neglected. Very limited storage here, I can...

Tempting, but I am always a bit concerned when they say "customer returns". Packing even a little bike up to return is a bit of a faff.

Nice! Would there be any way to use it with my existing 48v battery?

A couple of thoughts: I run my 26 x 1.75front/26 x 2.25rear tyres at 55psi and it feels right to me - my combined system weight is about the same as yours. You should be thinking about tyre choice as well as tyre pressure, and remember your back wheel's carrying two and a half times as much...

Hello all I have a bike with one of these. Love it, but I have my eye on something that takes up a bit less room and is better to loan to people. I'm interested in the idea of a minivelo. To those not familiar with them, these are bikes with 20" wheels that don't fold. The most successful was...

Hello Thinking about ebike MK2. I'm looking for a high torque, low RPM motor for a 20" wheel bike. Any suggestions?

One thing you will need to look at if your photo is anything to go by is how you are going to keep everything sealed. There is nothing more dangerous to an electric bike than salt water, and it looks like you ride that on a beach. That would rule mid-drive out for me. Which IGH does it have...

There's a lot around me. I would totally 10000% build one if I was a teenager. It looks hilarious. Of course, I'm a respectable 46 year old, and most people can't even tell my bike is electric! Kids eh?

Hello everyone. I have been thinking about this, and have decided that while I'm not too worried about my bikes and theft I do want public liability cover. Does anyone do this for home converted ebikes? It's road legal, an (excellent) kit from Woosh. I know if I turned up with a Deliverooo...

Not done the best job of it so far.

Exactly. A joke is fine, but this is just stupid. What I do know is this forum which could be a really useful source of information is getting polluted with inane content.

Congratulations?

Well, you made fools of us. Well done.

Ok, well I bought a built up one in the end: https://www.mowdirect.co.uk/feider-brev40-40v-battery-powered-electric-wheelbarrow.html Cheaper than buying a hub, battery ad controller on eBay. I will do a thread when it arrives.

That is tosh. It really depends on the bike of course, but you are not bending that in normal circumstances.

Something like this? https://www.sjscycles.co.uk/bikes/thorn-me-n-u2-childback-triplet-yellow-new51237/ You could always add a motor somewhere. They come up for sale sometimes as kids outgrow them. Being a Thorn, they are quality and will hold their value for the next kids. Historically people...

Hello folks. I have a DWGC22 hubbed MTB. It's ace. Has a 48v rack battery. I want to do another build, this time with a BBS01ET. Or maybe a BBS02 (it won't see road use, in case you are wondering). I phoned Woosh about buying a kit without a battery but they never got back to me. How do I...

I haven't really experienced much rain now I have an ebike, but with conventional bikes I generally preferred something that was almost waterproof. Kept me a bit dry, but dried out quickly. I might well invest in a poncho. I never had the nerve to wear one when I was younger but I am happy to...
