    New installation of frame mount battery for off road

    I used one of these when I mounted the battery on the boom-tube of my tandem. No drilling and very secure: https://ebikes.ca/shop/electric-bicycle-parts/battery-accessories/triple-bob.html

    The price quoted on their web site is the price you pay. As previously suggested, I would contact them directly to discuss your requirements and review any options. They will give you sound advice.

    Rear hub or front wheel hub? Help!!

    I'm a newbie to the world of ebikes too and have just finished fitting a rear hub motor to my tandem. I got a lot of information from the forum prior to purchasing my rear motor kit from Woosh. The best advice I could give you is to deal directly with them and get one of their recommended hub...

    Comfort V Weight penalty

    Weight considerations aside, if comfort is a priority, the Marathon Supreme is an excellent tyre. It rolls easily and is very compliant. I have a set of 35mm on my Specialized Tricross Sport and they are very good.

    Extension cable for Lishui Controller

    sjpt, I did check with Woosh if they did a tandem cable set and they advised that the 'normal' one had been extended a bit to accommodate the needs of tandem installs. In fairness to Woosh, if I had installed the kit where you are meant to (on the down tube rather than the boom-tube) I don't...

    Extension cable for Lishui Controller

    Whoosh DWG22c 48v rear hub kit fit march 2021

    I think I did the same, but nothing appeared. Hopefully my review will appear in due course. I've been impressed with the battery range too - I wasn't expecting great things as the battery is having to cope with the weight of a tandem, but we did over 30 miles and have at least 60% of the...

    Whoosh DWG22c 48v rear hub kit fit march 2021

    The timing of your post was quite convenient for me as I've just fitted the same kit to my Orbit tandem. Like you, I have written up my observations. I have tried to start my own thread, but I believe it needs to be approved by Admin first?
