ARCC conversion

[Georgew]

Hi all.....sent my Moulton TSR 27 off for conversion to the above firm a few days ago and hope this will be enough to keep me cycling another few years. Very expensive, but I need the suspension of the Moulton and if it works it will be worth it.
Little information about this kit other than well-heeled London types commuting around the City but I'm going to be using it on mixed runs and hoping to keep up with my cycling club. I've bought a couple of extra 36V batteries to extend my range and will be interested as to what can be achieved under real conditions.

hope the kit pleases you..looks very nice and good quality. As with all the ebike kit/bike manufacturers who tend to vastly exaggerate , i'd be surprised if their claim that the" 4 ah battery gives a typical mileage of 30 miles" proves to be true . maybe in Cambridge withe the wind behind you and on the lowest assistance! Let us know how you get on

I have no worries about the quality but like you, do expect the mileage predicted to be optimistic. Having a couple of extra batteries to hand will help of course but time will tell.
I'll report back once I've given the thing a good go and until then it's fingers crossed.

Just had my Moulton ATB tandem conversion fitted with an ARCC kit, the first tandem they've done. Only had one trip so far, the 4Ah battery lasted 15 miles though it wasn't on the lowest setting. Bosch are introducing a 6Ah battery, we hope to get around 25 miles from that. The latest charger is lighter than a spare battery and will fully charge in about 30 minutes, so the plan is to carry that and recharge at refreshment stops.
