    My weight is 100 kilos

    I've broken spokes on normal bikes so it's not an ebike specific problem..

    Hiya folks, lightweight ebike options

    Really don't like the look of these motor to crank gear arrangements, doesn't appear to be designed for longevity..

    My Carrera Vengeance Ultimate/ TSDZ2 build (in progress..)

    Cheers!. Think the Surly is the way forward, to be fair I never tried it chain onlybso I may get lucky with the tensoin (unlikely..). Could do with another Gtech frame with horizontal dropouts..

    Opinions on reliability of Impulse 2 motor and Nexus gears

    Have a good long search before you make your mind up. There was a database on a German site iirc and it didn't make good reading.

    Pedelec community support for DIY battery pack replacements

    Insat (sp) will recell most battery packs I believe. Personally I can see the upside of diy but it can also go very wrong..

    New e-bike owner

    Could the forum width be increased?

    I use my Samsung S5 for internet, it is fine as it is (for me!). If you make it wider I'll have to scroll left and right whitch would be a major pita..

    Why Derailleurs gears?

    I've gone for a Nuvinci hub on one and the other is single speed. Prefer the simplicity and self containment of a nice hub system, plus less to clean..
