Aren't Brose one of, if not the largest manufacturer of electric motors for car windows / power steering etc. Supplying the likes of Mercedes. I would be amazed if their actual motors were carp so was pleased to hear it's just a software issue. On Bulls I would like to know what the issues are...

Liked the link.....funny comments. I'm nearly always given a nod & a hi by bikers.

If I wanted a "fast" roadster I'd look at the Giant Phil and others ride. I've ridden it and it's quick. Lightish, and the battery integration is excellent. Couple that to a proven brand and Yamaha motor plus a grand cheaper than this and you have a no brainier. All IMHO if course.

Agree. Basic rules of getting a foothold in market is to sell at almost cost price. Business plan should be to turn a profit in 3 years. All depends on financial backing.

Thought you are the OP.

Sorry to be pedantic but the maths aren't quite correct. Import duty is 6% and VAT is 20%. That doesn't make 26%. It makes 27.2% as the VAT is added on top of the duty. Just like it is on fuel.

I was surprised to read you found it hard to get your leg over in the Philippines...

Remember we'll want pics. :D

Is that because it's 20 tines too small.

I wonder how many used low mileage ebikes for sale by one careful owner were "dongled"?? :D

Once you open the motor housing haven't you invalidated your warranty??

It all depends on what floats your boat.....they do say beauty is in the eye if the beholder....but if you're after a "tug" I'm sure there's an easier way....:D

Why not buy a trail bike. Ok it's petrol, but will be legal if insured and taxed the other won't be. If trail bikes are banned in the off road area you want to use it so will a 1000w ebike

15mph + 10% leeway. Just shy of 17 is therefore legal. But who the hell is going to know if it's 16.5 or 17.5.

Would that caveat be "only one engine replacement allowed a month"??:D

You should see his light sabre. :D

You've answered your own question....but as was said a recell may be beter

these look very interesting....https://issuu.com/velosat/docs/gepida_2017_ebike

I thought the whole point of a snow tyre was to get the snow to stick to the sipes in the tread. The theory being the best grip on snow is more snow. That's the rationale behind snow sicks on cars and winter tyres too. Try wearing a pair of over sized thick sock over your shoes in the snow...
