    Custom Nicolai with Shimano motor and backpack battery

    As you point out, it’s the wrong type of way to go about reducing the weight. I remember on EMBN they had that race with Olly Wilkins carrying extra dead weight, and I think that proves my point: I think it’s better if you have the weight doing something (which I think it is by improving the...

    Haven’t seen it on the forums, so thought I’d share.

    Brainstorming thread - have a biking idea? Share it here!

    I just had an idea... what if tyre tread was retractable? You could have a mud and slick tyre all in one!

    eBike Experience Survey

    @skrotsamlaren When I try to complete the survey question 6 says it requires an answer to the theft protection and tracking app, if I select it as one of the features. It even says completed 7/7 questions. Bugged survey, not good.

    What features do you like from the 2020 offerings?

    Finding out about the Nicolai G1 EBOXX E14 blew my mind. Also would blow a mind-blowingly sized hole out of my pocket as well, though.

    Answered Silent rear hubs... do they exist?

    Did a little digging and it appears Onyx also do silent hubs. Anyone tried those?

    Answered Silent rear hubs... do they exist?

    Yeah I just checked them out. Cool. Expensive, but cool.

    Answered Silent rear hubs... do they exist?

    The whirring ticking noise I want gone. I bet it’s some kind of legal requirement though?

    Answered Do Shimano ME7 Spd shoes work with crankbrothers Mallet DH Pedals?

    Yeah I thought as much (change the shoe or change the pedal). When I bought both I was blinded by top reviews. Seeming as the shoes cost me more (they both RRP at roughly the same price though), I am leaning to getting Shimano pedals. Any recommendations on this?

    Answered Do Shimano ME7 Spd shoes work with crankbrothers Mallet DH Pedals?

    So I followed the instructions for both, but could not get them to clip in and out. I have tried adding a shim to get them to work with each other. I don’t think it helps with the fact the cleat holders are held together to the shoe via a sticker. I have put the cleat in the most forward...

    Assist cutting out at 12.3mph on Eco, plus other issues

    So the sensor and magnet on my 2018 Giant Dirt E+1Pro are lined up properly, but it still cuts out at 12.3mph. It also works intermittently above 8 mph on the other modes. I hope it’s a software issue. Has anybody experienced this? I know you can’t really help and it will be back to the shop...

    Word of warning when trying to use all the battery

    I got the every charge = one cycle from EMBN If you disagree with me, take it up with Chris or Steve.

    Word of warning when trying to use all the battery

    There should be a better battery management system to optimise the battery life, making life simpler. Having to keep resting battery % at 60% or whatever, then remembering to only go down to 20% is faff I shouldn’t have to deal with when buying a premium product that costs several hundred pounds...

    Word of warning when trying to use all the battery

    Somebody was bullshitting me on the Pedelecs forum, then. It’s good to use a full charge anyway I think, because every recharge counts as one cycle of the battery.

    Word of warning when trying to use all the battery

    Are you telling me the memory of the system would disappear once the battery would be depleted? But as stated about my Haibike, it varies from system to system. I think the 0% turning the motor off is a better way to do it.

    Word of warning when trying to use all the battery

    Well you should drain the battery completely every 5 or 6 cycles. How exactly is it a safeguard? I mean it keeps the display working, but that’s pointless without assistance.
