Wow, just wow: http://www.cube.eu/uk/bikes/hybrid/suv-hybrid/cube-suv-hybrid-sl-275-glossyngrey-2015/

Still musing here. Keeping it legal probably means mid mount, and mid mount probably means it's worth waiting for torque sensor. Discovered South Yorkshire electric cycles is just down the road and they seem to carry a reasonable demo fleet - the proof is in the pudding after all!

I think it was having read about better weight distribution and not snapping spokes... Rear then, OK...

I am indeed confused. Do they do 350W front on 700C?

So a front hub 250w >10Ah seems to be the educated consensus? There's so much stuff out there when you start to look! The woosh option looks like a good all-round package but for the life of me I can't work out their website, I can only find mid mounts for sale.

Do all pedal assists require a square taper bottom bracket? I haven't had one of those for years! That could be a show stopper for my hollowtech II equiped bike.

Hmm, interesting points. The mid drive thinking was owing to comments about them being more suitable for hills. Good point about the speed/attention thing. I was thinking on my way back this evening that it might be better to limit top speed to save juice for hill assist. More research to be...

Thanks for the thoughts and comments guys. Present bike has 32-11 top gear (very low for road but I like the single chainring simplicity) and I can punt it along at 23mph ish Max, I'm more worried about the gearing going low enough than high enough on the bbs02. I guess my average speed is OK...

Hi all, nice forum you have here. So, all about me: reasonably keen cyclist, big bloke (100kg), reasonable fitness, lots of downhill and flat speed, struggle when it comes to the hills (Sheffield/Peaks). I presently commute to work twice a week, 15 miles each way, 250m of climbing on the way...
