The later Bosch display and remote switch will as far as I'm aware allow your system to have walk along, but I have to say it isn't that good, assist speed is too low for my liking and pressing the button constantly is hard work. Perhaps adding some larger sprockets would be a better solution...

No you change at the exact points you need to, on racing bikes this is even possible now whilst honking out of the saddle, and with 22 gears to go at being in exactly the right gear is as good as it gets.

The comment came up in another thread, and I can't just find it, so I'm really in the wrong thread with this. Hopefully Col is reading and can try it out up here in the Pennines.

It would be great if Col at KTM could do a more definitive test, I know he first talked about commuting on the E-race, but I think the weather got the better of him. There was talk in that article about two very different riders if I remember correctly, and the fittest was on the Panasonic hub...

You've discovered the achilles heel of crank drive. I got about twice that distance from my wider hub chain. KMC seemed amazed by how many miles I'd done :confused: I'm on a slightly narrower X1 now on their recommendation http://www.kmcchain.eu/products-single_speed-3_32_hi_performance Only...

Indeed, I'd say 'range from just 19 miles'

On looks alone the KTM does it for me, although the Cube looks neater just above the motor. I don't like Cannondales myself, and it has the older style motor. Not what you asked I realise, but that's how I'd choose from those three bikes.

Hello and welcome, yes they're great fun aren't they, good luck with the weight loss. I'm 13 stone and still feel overweight.

A nice bike, certainly one at the top of my list if I was in the market for a new bike.

Isn't that one Bosch though? http://www.shop.flidistribution.co.uk/p/2014-ktm-macina-sport-plus-400wh I wish mine would do that :confused: actually that's not true, I do want and like the exercise ;)

Indeed, thanks Martin, as suspected the same unit bar the set-up. I see they have a 20 mph ish speed limit in America. www.youtube.com/watch?v=LMz6MydeKK0 ooh hang on, wrong video, this one www.youtube.com/watch?v=zbXLAKvA9VQ

You could of course just use the edit button before it vanishes. Anyone know how long the edit option stays for?

Ooh good timing, I've just been trying to find a price of one.

More than ever this highlights the need to try before you buy. Also goes to show the wide range of requirements of e-bike users.

Ultra low. When I'm putting a lot of power in on my bike chasing segment times high power input and a nice cadence gives me less power, so I end up in 8th gear pushing a less than ideal low cadence, and that's on some uphill bits!

Ah OK, I stand corrected.

You missed my point, which at the time I wasn't 100% sure about. Nexus is only used on hub gears from a quick internet search, so if you have a Nexus shifter designed for the Nexus 7 hub gear I'm fairly certain it doesn't work on a derailleur system.

Is that for a hub gear? or derailleur?
