    Magnet adhesive

    What you describe would of course be an issue .....but you’d be very unlucky . I don’t recall ever hearing of such a failure in quite a few years of ebiking and forums My reaction was based on “if you hear hoof beats , think horses not zebra " analogy Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Tyres

    Further to my prior flippancy , I also find smart sams to be perfect for South Downs xc riding and also for road based daily commute They are single best compromise I have found to date over 8 years . I strive hard to find it as I hate bike maintenance and repair . I want do it all , bullet...

    I would also second the connection fault as most likely suspect I’ve repaired a few bikes with this symptom that were traced to dodgy connection one way or another Try hall sensor , phase and then battery connections Especially if old style jst type Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I love this!

    It works for me too for same reasons(mostly) . And I’d add the crucial demographic of people prepared to cycle commute in all weathers But I’d still take an ebike as it gives me cycle path access , zip past stationary cars on roads and can park anywhere (more or less ) . This can’t do that and...
