I'd like a bike now to ride for the next month, but I'm curious if the drag improvement in the M2 system is really worth waiting the extra month and change to see the M2?
What are your guys thoughts on pricing of new bikes with the M2 system? Is the Amflow PL @ 6k USD a steal enough to just...
I am building travel friendly < 100wh battery packs for a 48V Bafang M820. Originally I was going to target the Panasonic NCR18500A cell : NCR18500A - Lithium-ion Batteries - Secondary Batteries (Rechargeable Batteries) - Panasonic
This cell has a capacity of 2.040 ah @ 3.6V. 13 of these in...
Rei has the cannondale ones on sale, the new and old vitus bikes, canyon, jensonusa. Etc. I'm seeing a lot of good bikes under 4k. Which one would you get and am I missing any?
How much does the carbon 700wh vs alloy 700wh Levo shave? Also the tero x is very interesting to me. Upright posture, which I like, 28mph limit. The thing is heavy as specced but if I remove the kickstand fenders etc I’m wondering if it is approx same weight as the Levo alloy?
Anybody have numbers?
Before I purchase my ebike I want to make sure that these motor systems will take a custom battery charged to the correct voltage. Essentially I'm going to build N x 100wH batteries (probably 6) so that I can make it TSA legal and fly with it, reassembling the battery when I land.
1.) Do these...
I'm considering the turbo tero x 5.0 as I want a commuter bike as well as a full suspension emtb for trail riding. I'd probably throw a 150mm front fork on that though. ideally there is a 28mph Bosch 150mm travel bike out there in carbon.
I hate being locked-in to a manufacturer and not being able to source the part myself. With these motor systems we can't just replace it if it breaks. Imagine not being able to replace a chainring and having to total a bike. That's where we are with these motor systems. So with repairability in...
I'm preferential to the Bosch system but I can go for anything. There are so many vendors, resellers, etc. that I'm curious what people are thinking? Ideally under 5k. I'm looking at the Canyon Spectral:ON CF 8 for 5k at the moment, but I'd prefer the new Bosch system. I should also qualify for...
Which bikes can be used with only a range extender, no internal battery installed?
Shimano and Trek both sell a 160wh extender that can be used with theie bikes and power them in isolation. 2x these and you can fly with a usable ebike. The problem is that I want a FF bike with a similar...
I'm looking to capitalize on that large amount of space above the rear shock. I measured it as a 5x4 inch triangle. Hypothetically a very small bag of this size could fit tools, spare tube, phone, etc.
Anybody running anything like this?
So I have very very long legs for my height (6'1). I love to have the bike seat slammed to the frame when fully dropped as it makes the bike so much more manueverable. But then I have too much leg angle bend.
Anyway I'm pretty sure my stock Large M20 came with the 150mm dropper post. Not being...
