    Potential interest here - just what is a mid-drive :confused:

    Tongxin/Cytronex/Pashley Guvnor

    Think that's what they call enigmatic. Pashley have responded to say they do not to any mods or custom models - which is a trick missed in my book, but it's their business. Voting with my wallet, I have made contact with another producer of path racer cycles. Also investigating a...

    Hehe - you sound like my boss: "Never had a problem he couldn't solve by throwing money at it :rolleyes:" I have sent an email to Pashley...

    Tongxin/Cytronex/Pashley Guvnor

    A disc brake at the front is going to be obligatory methinks. Heavy bike, heavy man, assisted ride, traffic... If the wheel needs re-building anyway, obviously need a motor which can accommodate same, and rejig the brake cabling as required. Hmm, rear drum/front discs, where have I seen that...

    Tongxin/Cytronex/Pashley Guvnor

    Guessing if that's coming from China HMRC are going to want their pound of flesh, plus another pound for 'handling'. Can't say I'm the development engineer type, nor have I really got the time for trial and error, hence the appeal of the Cytronex - or indeed the others mentioned above.

    Tongxin/Cytronex/Pashley Guvnor

    Thanks everyone to date. This has I think a ways to go, and I will keep everyone posted on the project. First Jerry, "making one myself" LOL! If it's that's easy, why are Cytronex taking so long ? Mike told me he's got 6 people working on the kit project now. Next, where are you buying your...

    Tongxin/Cytronex/Pashley Guvnor

    A stone heavier since my knee op @ 14st, which I guess is relatively heavy although the plan is (!) to get back down to 13... not as they say holding my breath. 16-mile round trip commute with a fair climb right at the end of the morning trip in - Colchester is right on top of a hill. (All the...

    Beat the traffic

    It's brakes that worry me always. Other than reflexes of course.

    Tongxin/Cytronex/Pashley Guvnor

    Been thinking for a while now about trying to convert my Pashley Guvnor into an electric bike. Cytronex have been my big hope, but taking a while, here we are summer (?) 2013, I ain't getting any younger and the traffic ain't getting any better. Just wondering if a Tongxin motor would work with...
