    Rear wheel / hub motor replacement options?

    That´s the same motor as mine, but it may haveb been meant for the UK or canada. If so, the speed limiter in the controller would need to be unlocked & reset for 500w ( spd over 25kph) The code for that has been floated here,

    Rear wheel / hub motor replacement options?

    got mine from Calibike. but I don´t think they still sell ´em. It was a whole kit less battery for $350. These days their kits start at 2000w & go to 6000w it you like crazy fast. Their batteries are pretty reasonable

    Rear wheel / hub motor replacement options?

    250w? 500w is standard for moscows in the U.S. unless Oakland has a limit. Get the 500w, that´s a bargain at $100 +shpg. I´ve got 4700 mi on mine, strong as ever with never a motor issue. Did you get an error code? I have a 1000w plug & play wheel as a spare but a $100 won´t buy it. Whatś yur...

    Police - questioning the power rating of your E-bike? or Ticketing you?

    Cops here are very well paid out of gas tax to do next to nothing, but that´s fine cuz there´s next to no crime here, maybe the occasional petty theft or a cat stuck in a tree. They must be bored to tears. My one horse dorp makes Mayberry look like Chicago in the 20s. Cops here all know my bike...

    Why do I always know better?

    KOA is my last resort for a shower & a charge. It´s not so much KOA as the clients. Being deaf, I try not to be drawn into unintelligible conversations with Ozzie & Harriet. The best I can do is smile, nod, & pet the dachshund, chihuahua, snot nosed grandchild, whatever.

    Why do I always know better?

    Thatś too bad, I´m guessing there´s really nothing wrong with it other that it was cheap. I´d take it, but I don´t need it & the wife has on pain of death limited me to 4 bikes. I don think that´s fair. The last time I took off for a short expedition she gave away 2 storage bins of ´vintage...

    Why do I always know better?

    Nothing wrong with being a connisseur,(sp?), but for the less affluent a box of wine will have the desired effect at little cost. There are still many among us who have not acquired a discriminating pallette, (my spell check is down)🥴

    Why do I always know better?

    Stefan likes pricey bikes, okay, but if yur a novice & screw up you´ll be out a lotta dough. My 2nd bike cost less than half what the 1st, (now parts bike) did, & frankly it is a much better bike that the 1st. You don´t have to pay $5k to get a good bike, If you do & break something,(model...
