May 16, 20169 yr im really happy with my GSM mid drive convertion. It's been a revelation and I love using my bike. The only downside is the weight. The bike and kit is really heavy. I want to convert a second bike, is there a lighter alternative?
May 16, 20169 yr you should start with a very lightweight bike then we'll look into what kits are available for it. My bike is 16kgs all in. It's possible to shave about 1kg from it if the battery is a 10S3P instead of a full fat 15AH that's on it. http://wooshbikes.co.uk/2016/gd5/gd5-3-1920.jpg
May 18, 20169 yr no, my Giant is a cheap £299 10.2kg bike. This one (12.7kg) built by Mechaniker is the bees' knees. similar electrics but starting off from a carbon Radon Spire, under 7kg bike. It goes to show that you don't have to spend £1500 or more for a good e-bike. http://www.pedelecforum.de/forum/index.php?attachments/spire-jpg.85436/ http://www.bike-discount.de/en/buy/radon-r1-105-465292/wg_id-6668 Edited May 18, 20169 yr by trex
