So whats the lightest ebike/ moped you can make ?

[gspeed]

What's the lightest bike available I really want one with a throttle if possible. I tried the Fiido D1 but I'm not well and it would be too heavy for me to take on the train.

IS this the lightest conversion kit available it looks like it

Don't bikes have to be folding bikes to take them on the train?

Well not on the train where I go from, they have a carriage with space for 3 bikes.

the ad says wireless kit and didn't mention the motor cable.

 

[Woosh]

getting back to your original question, I suppose the lightest bike would be to fit a kit to a Hummingbird.

What about coming back?

The same as going there the train could be the same train.

I live in rural Dorset and go off peak so it's all good, anyway I can wait for the next train if necessary I'm quite relaxed.

I use my 21kg+ KTM eRace on local off peak trains - weight isn't a problem as train doors are only a few inches higher than the platform. Just need to lift front wheel up first followed by rear and push it on.

Only time the bike's weight becomes a problem was returning via certain stations i.e Weeley where the bike needs to carried up & across a footbridge to get to the right platform.

Goodness know how disabled folk are able to use unmanned Weeley Station for Colchester / London bound journeys as they blocked of easy ready access to that side's platform

It's probably the indiego link I posted earlier this morning, the motor is wired but the other components are BT.

 

[Woosh]

the OP would like a throttle which is not impossible but very difficult to do wirelessly.

 

[gspeed]

I don't mind wires
