another vote for NCM https://www.leoncycle.co.uk/NCM-Venice-Plus-Trekking-E-Bike on offer at the moment at £1199 - 768wh battery will get you to work and back easily on a single charge and I think the Das Kit hub motors are pretty pokey so no problem with hills

Guerney will be along in a min

I haven't re-read the whole thread, but I guess you have already upgraded to a 180mm front disc rotor (and caliper spacer) ? Very cheap upgrade for better braking power if not

I try to do a couple of cycling tours every year in Europe, the past couple of years on the ebike. All independent (with my brov), train with bike down to Dover, then on DFDS to Dunkirk/Calais (foot passenger with bike £25 each way) Ibis, Novotel, B&B Hotels group etc and rides between towns...

Also available in Carling branded cans

Thanks guys. My local tip lists car batteries and 'batteries' as accepted so I'm hoping they'll be able to take the ebike battery. I've heard Aldi have recycling bins instore that it would seem are managed by a company who recycle batteries, however, I don't fancy taking apart my battery and...

Hi all I have a 5 year old Yosepower Hailong 36v 13ah downtube battery that has failed. I cannot charge it (charger initially sent 30-40w into it for a few minutes then went to green)and although I can intermittently get it powered on (the leds on the top of the battery flash up full) and I...

Did the rubber o ring get stuck on the bleed pipe screw when you bled the reservoir on the brake lever end ?

Someone needs to come up with a throttle that looks like a retro bell !

Yep so on highest assistance and peddling the throttle wouldn't make any difference (other than acceleration from a standstill) up to your set pedel assist limit (25kph) but the throttle would keep the assistance beyond 25kph when open up to whatever you set the throttle top speed (on the motor...

Yep I agree on avoiding the area even if it means a longer detour. Maybe change your shift pattern to finish earlier too for a couple of weeks. These goons will move on to something else to entertain themselves

Maybe it's time in addition to upping to 18a to also fit a throttle with a higher assist top speed (in the controller settings), you can still peddle like hell but with the throttle open it'll overide your normal 25kph pedal assist fixed top speed

Looks like a Hyundai i20 possibly the n line version

always an option to add a third in the form of a rivnut. add some velcro straps, my hailong on a Boardman frame aint going anywhere

Yep, whatever floats yer boat. I was wondering about mid drives on the basis of how durable the Nexus 3 speed when paired with a mid drive. Plus I have a Bafang BBS01 mid drive as a spare. If it munches the geared hub with the extra grunt then its a non starter

Some cracking deals on Vitus bikes at the moment Has anyone ever converted a 3 speed Nexus hub geared bike with a Bafang 250w BBS01 ? There's a great deal on one for 260 quid...

Another vote for cycle.travel to plan routes and then export the gpx files to komoot for turn by turn navigation. Been using this combo for the last few years and it's served me well. As mentioned, Komoot lifetime worldwide maps can be had for sub £20 when on offer

They say it has a built in tracker

There was a discussion on these bikes a while back, the co founder was responding to questions, but not offering much detail on the specs, battery cells, motor type etc Most pointed out the positioning of the on/off battery switch and charging cover, right at the bottom near the bottom bracket...
