    Greetings from Italy! New to e-MTB scene

    Check out the Amflow as a lighter weight alternative with the DJI motor and decent size battery.

    New Bosch Gen1–Gen4 Unlock Tool – No Chip, No Errors, Full Reset

    Sure, but not worth my time going to a metal shop when I can order online in minutes and have it delivered to my door. None of my e-bikes are limited to 25klm/hr. They were all available from the bike shops already unlocked to higher speeds with correct wheel diameters, speed and odometer readings.

    New Bosch Gen1–Gen4 Unlock Tool – No Chip, No Errors, Full Reset

    Sounds like the speed sensor trick is the way to double your speed on modern motors. Epic e-bikes sells a replacement speed sensor disc for the DJI Amflow to acheive 50 klms/hr……nice 👍 https://epicebikes.com.au/product/amflow-pl-carbon-speed-unlock-disc-double-your-speed/

    How do I order a replacement chain

    Mine is medium too. Has been on my bike for just over 2 years now and no plans to change it. Can’t say I’ve done all day rides though, nor do I wear padded cycling shorts - just sports shorts with compression liner.

    How do I order a replacement chain

    Good choice on the saddle. I have one of these on one of my e-bikes and the Selle SMP e-sport on the other.

    Three Years with my RadMission, new brake pads

    One of my bikes has Tektro brakes too. They came with the green coloured backing plate pads which were useless for slowing down from higher speeds. So I changed to pads to the red P20.11, upgraded to Shimano ice tech rotors with a larger front rotor…..and cancelled my life insurance! I need to...

    California Highway Patrol eBike Certification Class

    The 6.00 o’clock launch method would be slow (and precarious ) from a hill start. I tend to use there launch method, or 2 to 3 o’clock start position for a hill start depending on the gradient.

    More speed for Ebike

    So a total of 9,600 bike crashes in 2022, and of those a fraction were e-bike crashes, and of those 4 e-bike crashes were fatal. Don’t get me wrong, fatalities are fatalities, but it’s hardly an alarming stat 👐, Love to know the number of fatalities riding acoustic bikes. Are they getting a...

    RIP m@Robertson - Tale of Two WHeels

    He will be certainly missed. He was such an ambassador to the e-bike community with a wealth of knowledge and experience he was only too happy to share.

    The Future of eBikes: How Fast is Too Fast?

    Not in my state in my country either. Doesn’t stop them though. It’s usually teens on off-road dirt bikes and there have been deaths where they have hit people,

    The Future of eBikes: How Fast is Too Fast?

    Best thing to do is read your policy and confirm your understanding with your insurer. My policy is more concerned with how you ride it and who can ride it (min age limits) rather than what you ride……for now.

    The Future of eBikes: How Fast is Too Fast?

    For now my home and contents insurance covers public liability and property damage for my family when riding our e-bikes. Next time the policy is up for renewal they (and e-rideables) will no longer be covered……. regardless of speed.

    Narrow Wide Chainring: Chain Placement.

    Of course I knew about the proper alignment! 😉. When the time comes to change my KMC e9 chain on my other ebike, I’ll need to check if the same applies.

    2022 Levo 2.2 motor replacement

    Not the longest lasting motors based on what I have read on EMTB forums. I think one guy is on his 5th or 6th motor 😳
