    Go Faster Dongles! Here's another to consider

    It has made the bike exactly what I wanted from an e-bike. It gives me options and choices about how I ride dependant on mood and how fit I feel. Battery consumption is roughly the same, but with higher average speeds. A less hilly ride of 9.5 miles done in 32 mins, can now be done in 25 mins...

    Horizon monitor me

    Interesting programme about how mobile phones can monitor our health. BBC Two - Horizon, 2013-2014, Monitor Me and 10,000 steps is about 5 miles :eek: http://www.thewalkingsite.com/10000steps.html

    cycle computer apps?

    Wow that's not very good, you could plug in to the Bosch panel (if you have one), but then you'd need something to mount your phone in/on.

    So I've tried a few but still confused

    It looks like you need to look at some more bikes, how about a Scott on ebay not sure if it has the latest improved display though.

    hypermiling...the xtreme and cross way ;)

    Thanks, I reread your post and spotted the tyres. I tend to ride on full power, that does mean I can't really share my rides on Strava as I tend to end up with about 5 KOM's on every ride I do :o

    hypermiling...the xtreme and cross way ;)

    I'd like to see data on average speeds and altitude climbed etc? failing that a rough idea of the speeds and location of your rides. I managed a whole 28 miles from my 400 wh's the other day. Edit; 70 psi seems low to me, what tyres does your bike have? I'm thinking of changing the tyres on...

    Crank drive comparisons - Impulse .v. Bosch .v. Panasonic

    Having looked again it has a minus 295 feet elevation, clearly not a 25% ish grade hill. Winnats at 15.2% and nearly 500 feet of ascent takes a lot out of a battery, especially if the wind is blowing straight at you as it often is. http://app.strava.com/segments/1976323 the whole climb seems...

    I've found a 23.5% grade hill, I can't quite work it out though, the small section looks like a wall, something not quite right? Strava Segment | Ironbridge Road Climb

    Navigational events could be ideal for ebike sporting activity

    I've seen a few of those events locally very recently, usually mountain bikes, I've never looked the event up afterwards though, time to investigate, I imagine you'd need a lot of battery power to even consider doing one. I also wonder if anyone has ever done a cyclosportive Wiggle Shropshire...

    Hello and where have all the sellers gone

    There is certainly a stigma attached to riding an e-bike. I'm doing my little bit to try and spread the word around me :D

    Hello and where have all the sellers gone

    and the New Mills shop is a fraction closer Contact Juicy Bike: stylish electric bikes and scooters although none of the bikes are to my taste.
