I've fitted something like this: https://www.ebay.co.uk/p/18034933790?var=463968195034&iid=164355102907 to several of my bikes and found it the ideal way to address issues like yours. Easily fitted and perfectly safe. The only caveat is that they also effectively move the bars back slightly...

No, it simply slides over the sensor and is a push fit over the round pick up. They recommend that you move the magnet a few mm from the sensor and turn it round 90 degrees, but that's also easy. My BadAss 3 has a rubber band securing it. I think the latest version is even simpler.

My suggestion would be for the Cube you listed above. I've recently sold a bike with a very similar drive train (an Ortler Wien 7-speed). The Active Line/Shimano Nexus combination worked very well together. The PowerPack 400 battery should see you achieve your range goals. I've got a Cube now...

No, just irrelevant...

I blame Bosch...

Why? Sounds a bit dog in the manger-ish to me...

I have exactly the same 'perk' at my work. My MP - a very good one at that - used his bike for constituency duties and claimed what he was entitled to, only for the Scum/Sun to harangue him for doing so. There's no story here - move on...

The battery charge display is one of my few Intuvia gripes. If I have two bars showing, that could be anything between 40% and 21%. That's quite a disparity. Why didn't they just put a percentage display, or have 10 bars?

My only advice would be to steer you away from a mountain bike. The ride geometry will have you leaning more forward than you might be comfortable with and you'll need to hold your head up more, putting strain on neck and shoulder muscles that won't have had that strain put upon them for a...

The bike isn't easily accessible, I'm afraid...

My Oxygen eMate is fine mechanically, but was always flaky electrically. As a result, it's sat unused in a garage for 2 years. To get it going again, I'll need to replace the entire electrical system, of course. I want to get it going again to use off road. My Cube Kathmandu Pro is a superb...

I've just had an eBay help person ask me to 'bare with him'. Luckily, I'm only wearing shorts...

I doubt whether there are many on this forum of that age, and those here should know the difference between pedal and peddle. Textspeak is intentionally lazy and I expect short cuts there - I have teenage kids.

It irks me that on a cycling forum so many people cannot spell 'pedal'. 'Peddle' and 'peddling' mean selling stuff. No big deal, I suppose, but then it's not that hard to get it right, either.

In my pre-ebike days, I was riding along a country lane in Warwickshire on a commuter bike with a dynamo front hub. I was fitter in those days and able to set a fairly good pace. I was passed, slowly, by a group of mature club riders on expensive bikes and clad in club colours. One of them...

I have a Suntour NCX and I can't tell if it's doing a good job, so it is doing a good job, IYSWIM... One small problem is that the bulk of the mechanism is such that it's not possible to fit an under-saddle bag. I've always had one of these to put tyre levers, etc. in and I now have to put them...

The QR seat clamp could be released and the whole rack swung round 90 degrees or so with the seat post, to allow the battery to be lifted out. It'd probably need any bags taken off first, but it could be done.

Tricky! Depending on how high you have the saddle, you might be able to fit a beam rack like this one: https://www.halfords.com/cycling/bike-accessories/bike-pannier-racks/topeak-rx-beam-rack---v-type-346871.html That would limit the weight you could carry, so check its listing. If there was a...

Thanks. In which case, it renders the facility useless to all intents and purposes.

I'm connecting my phone up to the display OK and I even get a pop up on the phone asking me if I want to charge it. Although the phone display says it's charging, in reality it isn't. When I'm using OsmAnd (a sat nav app) the battery discharges quite rapidly and at the same rate as if it weren't...
