Well, I heard from others about oil leaks and stuff like that which made me think: Leave your fingers off that. You live since you ride a bicycle which is in my case since 57 years with cable brakes and the ones you do have now are by far better than what you are used to so leave it as it is...

You might be right, but my thoughts were: If they have the technical skill what I would expect from a technical support they would have pointed me towards adjustment. But as they proofed to have no clue of this I thought they haven't deserved it any better. My apologies for being like that.

I am happy with the mechanic brakes. The less complicated the easier to maintain

The 2nd Eleglide does now have 350 km driven. So far I am still happy with it, but lat week I had the following incidence: All of a sudden my rear brake was out of order. It moved t brake pad towards the disc, even bended the disch slightly towards the inner brake pad and then it released. So I...

Must have been a typo. It is supposed to have 14.5 Ah

Just saw they are available again as I saw HERE. And the mid-motor versions as well. Cost is 1249€. To be honest: The price situation is slowly relaxing and before I am going to buy one for 1249€ noone is going to fix I am going to get a 2022 old stock non-mover for 300 € more or build my own.

It appears Eleglide Ebikes aren't available in the EU any longer. I was looking on www.geekbuying.com and searching for eleglide brought no result at all. Searching for Ebikes brought some results, but once I sat the filter to "Only from EU warehouse" this ended up in showing only accessories...

That is always a question of how well it is looked after. Even a bicycle in the higher price regions will be scrap at a certain stage if you don't look after it and maintain it here and there. On the otherend, if you buy cheap stuff but you are taking care of it it can last an eternity. Besides...

I love diversity so my range of motorized two-wheelers as of today is as follows: ELEGLIDE M1 Plus 29", 250 W (1/3 HP), built 2023 BMW R1150 GS, 85 HP, built 2001 Honda CM 185 Parallel twin, 17 HP, built 1980 MZ ES 250/2 single cylinder 2-stroke 19 HP, built 1972 JAWA 175 cc, 9 HP, built 1960...

No, mine wasn’t smoking. Only downside of it was that due to the engines position on a hot summer day my arse was getting f….ng hot . Other than this I really enjoyed it. Built in 1983 I bought it 2014 for 1160€ and sold it 2022 for 1000€. Only spares besides consumables was a used oil/water...

That is an argument I heard quite often on motorcycles I bought as a bargain with "ugly" colours like purple. My reply was then always: "Might be, but I don't care. I don't see it as long as I sit on it. It is a motorcycle whichs purpose is to ride, not to be sent onto catwalks!" :)

As you can see HERE it looks as if Eleglide is shortly going to offer a mid-drive Pedelec as well. Still not visible on their website neither on geekbuying.com . Let's wait wich price it will be offered for.

How powerful?? Well, how should I answer this? Powerful enough for me who is a.) 62 years old and b.) 110 kgs light and c.) kind of limited as I was having a bypass operation in my left leg 11 mths ago and I am still wearing surgical stockings. That is all I can tell about "How powerful is...

Would 750 Watt be legal in th UK? Not in the EU

If it’s self-built I‘d agree, but with a finished off-the-shelf Pedelec in the 600ish Region I would not want to risk it

Wow, that would be a good choice to build an ebike on your own with a Tongsheng mid-drive

Let me add some comments to this subject as well though I do definitely not have as much experience as you guys do. First of all, CHEAP and CHEAP isn't mandatorily the same. Cheap can mean poor components and poor workmanship, but cheap can also mean reliable though not newest technology...

Thanks for translating. My Spanish is limited to „dos cervecas por favor“

That makes sense. Thanks for sharing

But it isn't available any longer as I sent the bicycle back. All in all they were quite generous. I guess a local dealer would have tried to blame me for having abused the vehicle.
