Okay chaps, very close now. I found a local builder those going to do me a bike. He's suggest this. Anything glaringly wrong? Price okay? Keen to put my search to bed. Appreciate all your help.

Can you be a bit more specific? i.e. >750W, >48V, >16ah <29kg. Also, if I derestrict the Moscow, does that mean the Watt improves, or does it just remove the max speed? Thanks.

This was the bike I tried which flew up the hill in question. The guy said it was 750W. It went about 20mph (with me cycling also) up the hill which is what I want. What are the specific stats I am looking for in the bike? When people say a certain bike won't suit what I need, I don't actually...

:D am I after a unicorn? I'm after a bike that will go up a smoothish pathed hill quickish for about 2 miles. If the moscow plus can do that after being derestricted, then I'm done. If not then it would be a waste of money. The right bike would be life changing for me because I would get so much...

and the leon guys came back to me saying they have a moscow plus in 29". does anyone know any other good custom build people? Thanks

Haven't had many responses from the custom build shops yet. Only this guy on ebay saying:- " New message from: pi-power-ups (871) If you go up to £1500 I can do you a orbea mx50 2021, I have a large frame almost new. Also could fit 750 befang motor with a 52v 14amp(I use 52v batteries as...

Good point. I need a donor bike anyway so may be I can get that on the scheme and then turn it into an ebike. Will save me a bit of £

Ledge, thanks

Ah yeah, sorry. A lot to learn so takes a couple of reads to sink in.

Okay, so I've googled what all the acronyms etc mean... :confused:, and it seems you are advocating getting a rear wheel drive rather than a mid-drive motor..? I've found some local custom ebike build shops so I'm going to email them to ask if they can build me a bike to those specs. "ebike...

What do you suggest? I would go with the NCM Moscow because I can derestrict, but it is out of stock. I need a bike that matches my criteria and is in stock. If you have a recommendation, then please say.

Cheers bud. I'll let you know how I get on.

Ah, thanks. This is a rabbit hole I'm dying in!! I did have a go on a mid-drive bafang 750W and it flew up the 'hill in question'. Too much if anything.

I'm not really after the opinion of a trades men. That's why I'm on a community forum. (I am on a community forum aren't I...?). Also as I mentioned, half your bikes aren't in stock. What I'm after is an unbiased, experienced person to just send me a link for a good deal which would suit my...

What specs should I be looking for in a bike/battery which means it would give good power if derestricted? (Nothing crazy, just enough to go more than jogging pace up a hill). And how do I know if a bike can be derestricted and it is okay to do so (it won't fall apart from the increased forces...

:D lol

I went to, someone beat me to it. Half think it was someone watching this group :(

Any other suggestions :confused:
