    Cost theory of EBikes by weight.

    eMTB firms do and will charge what the market is prepared to pay. And right now is Bonanza! So why the hell not. Many premium eMTBs are built in a mega-factory in Taiwan in large volumes, bringing cost per unit right down. This gives them extra margin... good for them! The other day I spoke to...

    Sciatica ?

    Hey ZF, For a change I can return a favour. Two months ago I had Sciatica after falling backwards while climbing uphill and landing on a hard object. My PT and Physio were great help, and you should see a physio ASAP! In the meantime... 1. To relax your lower back nerves you should assume...

    I agree with MH75 on three accounts: 1 vadll attitude is rather unfortunate and his lack of decent feedback cost me dearly 2 it is our risk / decision 3 Shimano is built for higher speed or it would not have this option, or there would be large number of warranty returns in the US, leading to...

    Is that in prep for your night ride to the vampire castle? Now it all makes sense... first was body armour thread, second I saw him practicing with chainsaws, that was closely followed by a stash of garlic... next will be wooden stakes and silver bullets [emoji102]

    Dengfu E10 - The CHEEB V1.0 - Discussion

    The power output is electronically controlled and restricted to comply with specific requirements. Most motors are capable of much higher output. It’s the same with motorcycles, cars and trucks. It is just more efficient to manufacture one strong motor in large numbers and moderate its output...

    vadII I have been asking on numerous occasions if the ST-U app will be able to change market settings on f/w 4.9.0 It appears that it doesn’t. If you only bothered to answer my question, I wouldn’t waste my time upgrading and now having to downgrade.

    There is something deeply satisfying in building your own eMTB! I am watching with keen interest, this will be a great Spring project! Rob Rides EMTB will you provide us with a BOM (Bill of Materials)?

    @ZF, looks good, seriously late for any advice, but I would: (1) remove the log in the centre, (2) seal the steak for 4-min on one side, (3) seal [emoji3052] for 4 min on the other side, (4) sink your teeth in it, if it doesn’t kick!

    vadII Will I be able to change market setting from EU to US with 4.9.0? I don’t want to mess with circumference anyway. Max 32km/h is perfectly fine for eMTB, where I ride.
