    ep8 motor, who's going to be first to retrofit?

    I personally wouldn’t bother with E8000 to EP800 conversion, unless I burned-out the old motor after warranty expires. I ride mostly in 20-50% assistance. The extra Nm don’t excite me, unless you are riding at the rugged edge and you are able to utilise the extra torque. At my level of...

    Foam tyre inserts ?? Are they worth it

    I had cushcore at the rear for approx 1000km. When I replaced the tyre, the cushcore lost all its form, it was as flat as an additional tube, just a little thicker on the thread side. I didn’t have any puncture with cushcore, so it has done it’s job. Nowadays I ride tubeless with snot/liquid...

    I have one of those as well… excellent carrier, my bike frame fits it perfectly. The only wish… would be to have a fixing/tightening handle a-La Thule, instead of flat-iron spanner.

    What did you buy your ebike this week?

    @Zimmerframe , I recall you posted that you bought slick bar-ends that protect your outer fingers. I can’t find your post… it looked like turned-in short horns. How are the bar-ends working for you? I have longer horns but when I hit branches I have to muscle my handlebars straight...

    Thanks @STM I went to the woods with it last night… this is the best light, eva! [emoji102] My riding buddy had an exposure next to me. When I switched to setting #4 my light flooded the road to such an extent that his light on the road became almost invisible. I also like the fact that the...
