    Yes, but with no load (wheel in the air) the display shows 54 km/h (33.5 mph). That's a big difference, or?

    Just tried the kit with 12S (cold and dark with no light on the bike). The display showed 41-42 km/h (26 mph) no pedal as I had no chain. About 50 V and probably 20A --> 1 kW. If that's the case I'm a little disappointed. About 800W on the wheel or? According to this site 500W should be enough...

    Received two packages today. Everything looks good (I think...). I did expect a slightly wider rim (it's 622x16). Hmm, I don't think the wheel is laced the right way.:(

    Cheapest gents bosch centre drive bike?

    If it had the 400 Wh battery and the new 2014 Bosch it would probably be a lot more expensive... And I already started a tread about the new Cube hybrid. http://www.pedelecs.co.uk/forum/electric-bicycles/15644-cube-hybrid-2014-a.html

    15 x 260/201 x 48/40 x 28/ 26=25 mph If the cst 270 rpm gives 42 km/h with 12S (26") (your first post) the Xofo 260 should do about the same. I'm happy with 25(+) mph.
