There shouldn't be too many problems using it on a towpath however, I would suggest that the standard tyres be replaced with something more suitable. The stock tyres are more suited to tarmac. I tend to use my bike mostly off road on gravel tracks however, whenever I encounter patches of mud the bike takes it in its stride albeit with some slipping due to the tyres. In 250W mode you will have no problem with your 15 mile commute however, if you intend using it in 1000W mode 15 miles would be about your limit.Are these bikes up to the job of handling a quite often very muddy towpath as part of a daily commute?
My daily ride is 15 miles and the one I have now isnt ideal.
The rest of the ride is a mixture of dry gravel towpaths and a bit of tarmac road.
Many thanks
If you opt for the 500W may I suggest you go for the 15ah battery and I would definitely add the thumb throttle which will come in very useful if negotiating muddy tracks.Thats useful to know, many thanks.
I might go for the lower 500watt I think as it is unlikely I would need that extra speed...unless I fancy a swim in the canal!
My throttle keeps going. On a flat piece of tarmac the throttle only will move my 1000W at around 26mph (I weigh in at 18 stone). On a downhill stretch I guess the sky's the limit although I normally lose my nerve at around 35mph.Yes, jsut looking at the different options....the 15ah should be more than enough for my trip...does the throttle cut out at 6kph or does it keep on going?
I believe there is an option to have a pannier rack battery on the stealth so by that reckoning I cant see why not. May I suggest that you give Zak a call at Cyclotricity with any questions you may have. Zak is very knowledgeable about his products and easy to talk to.Ok, sounds great....im hedging towards the 1000w now. Sorry for all the questions, but would the bike take a pannier rack...could do with one for my work junk
Press and hold the up & down arrows together until the display starts to flash then release and press the centre button once. This will reset the trip but leave the overall distance.Can anyone tell me how to reset the trip counter please?
I've downloaded the LCD manual but it doesn't say how to do it....just to cycle through the different screens
