squib, Any bike with the Bosch Active Line Plus motor or a Haibike with a Yamaha motor will have negligible resistance when the battery goes..

squib, Welcome to Pedelecs Forums. Try the Forme bikes, both rear hub drive and central crank drive versions, up that steep hill and see how they, and the two of you, perform. It is best to get a bike with the 500Wh battery for greater range and dealing with the demands of steep hills. Both...

Raboa, Thanks for that excellent video on the Delta FWD.

Ian, I agree with vfr400. It is useful to have the throttle in reserve, especially given your medical history. Having said that, look at vidtek's review: https://www.pedelecs.co.uk/forum/threads/whoosh-crank-drive-tongsheng-kit-review.34071/#post-489738 Extract: When the weather improves I...
