Are you going to try and build a lightweight road electric bike with similar characteristics out of generic parts ? This would be my attempt Bafang G370 hub...

Some quite good references here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/You%27ll_own_nothing_and_be_happy And https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/w3ct6qts?partner=uk.co.bbc&origin=share-mobile

I'm really surprised it isn't more popular as a lightweight kit, it avoids a lot of the disadvantages of a front wheel kit, can be pedalled unpowered with very little drag , can choose a suitable generic battery, can use KT controller and display, much cheaper than Cytronex (or x35 bikes) Could...

This looks legit £85 seems good ? https://www.amazon.co.uk/HUAWEI-Watch-Smartwatch-Touchscreen-Continuous/dp/B07H4Y9PG7/

google maps - directions - choose the cycle. Fitness bands will record the route - Mi-band or Pixel watch - go into the app and it will show the route

The other "micro hub" is the 1.7kg Bafang G370 that @Nealh uses : E.g. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/186229806245?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=nZudNSwhRcS&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=e7wJGK-DRD6&var=694267081944&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY @Nealh - is it the 201 rpm version you have...

Yes , sorry I don't really have any answers, apart from perhaps selling your existing bike, buy a sub 10kg road bike off facebook marketplace (£500 for a nice one) and adding a AKM-75 front hub motor (1.44 kg) (or Bafang G370) and a top quality celled 36V 10Ah bag battery (1.8kg) and small LCD4...

An "old" thread here https://www.pedelecs.co.uk/forum/threads/dyi-battery-extender.43112/

How about a 1.44kg akm-75 hub 36v 201rpm motor, maybe build your own wheel , coupled with a 36v 10ah bag battery (1.8kg) with top quality cells (like the ones Woosh offers). Add a KT controller, little LCD4 and pas sensor. That's going to be less than 4 kg added. I think the 201 rpm version...

@saneagle what about rigging up a "generic" battery "in parallel" as some members have done with their Bosch systems ? ( I think this is how the x35 "range extenders" work)

Both of those are very good bikes ( the components are Chinese, incidentally !, but none the worse for that). Wisper customer service and support are excellent. The problem with buying second hand e-bikes (as several of us have found to our cost) is that you can't know the condition of the...

Or , if you have the budget, excellent customer service and support from Wisper £1199 for 375wh battery model version https://winstanleysbikes.co.uk/wisper-806-20-inch-2022-electric-folding-bike#172=295&389=18250&414=20825 Also worth talking to David for @Wisper Bikes directly - see if he has...

Or https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1491650801527762/ + new battery https://winstanleysbikes.co.uk/wisper-375wh-rack-battery

What does everyone think of these : I'd probably choose this one : https://winstanleysbikes.co.uk/ezego-fold-special-edition-2022-electric-folding-bike https://ecobikecompany.com/products/ezego-fold-folding-electric-bike or alternatives ...

Yes, the tbk-74 (rebadged akm-75) has a 12.6 reduction ratio on the 328 rpm version (suitable for 20" wheels)

When I switched it on it was about 10 minutes faster ! Yes, I just wanted to see how much "motor drag" affected it when ridden unpowered

When I converted my wife's folding bike , I had a little 9 mile test circuit. Before I did the conversion it was taking me around 40 minutes. After the conversion (1.6 kg akm-75 + Woosh 36v 10ah bag battery 1.8 kg) I tried the same circuit unpowered and it took 27 seconds longer (3 seconds per...
