sorry I completely forgot to update this post. I ended up finding a good one on Amazon and it works amazing and works with the connectors that I have https://a.co/d/djaUi2L it works really well and I actually like this way better.

Mine is a peddle assist with torque sensing. I don't think I would want an e-bike without torque sensing, it's like intelligent peddling. and then I always love having a throttle on the bike. I have honestly never tried the half twist hand throttles as I was told by a few users it's very...

Thanks for the feedback! and yes I agree even with my bike I thought I wanted to go faster but what I really wanted was torque. anything above 42 km/h is scarry as s*it on a bike. you wipe out it's going to hut bad for a long time. But what I do like is going 35 km/h and having a peppy bike that...

I dont fully wash it down but I rinse it to get dirt off the chain and moving parts. I ride this thing in the Hydro Cut in Waterloo, a huge mountain bike trail system here. I do commute with it but I also ride mine hard in the trails, and that's when I rinse it down not after a city commute!

How do they impose wattage and class limits now?? They dont.. unless they have to because people are complaining or police see you doing dumb stuff. Same will hold true for speed governance on the bike. I could care less about speed limits on a road or trail. They dont need them the bike needs it

So i have had my e-bike now for 4 months and been pretty good washing it down after each ride but we went to the cottage and had to store the bike on the bike rack on the back of the car for the week and it rained a few times. Now i have rust spots in my bolt heads on my befang m620 my chain is...

I know but it's like saying there's a new law that says you can't spit on the ground we don't need police walking around and forcing it they're already walking around and forcing existing laws that they see you breaking the no spitting on the ground law then they can give you a ticket same as...

Are you being sarcastic or silly? If a cop with a speed gun is checking traffic they can point it at a car OR hear me out.... A BIKE. Or again if they are following you they can.... look at their speedometer!!!

Not speed limits on the bikes speed limits on the road, just like a car your can do what ever you want with your bike. You could then have 2 modes for your bike on road that the motor stops helping at 32km/h or offroad and you have to monitor your speed.. Hell i can cost down a hill and hit...

Exactly and police enforcement already have the tools to enforce it!

None one regulates them and sorry educated people did not make these rules in my opinion... again why would you limit a bike to an arbitrary wattage rating instead of a speed limit? Perfect example is if auto law makers limited cars to horse power instead of speed it makes no sense and again...

While I agree with what you are saying for me its funny that manufacturing is under no law or regulation to properly label a 750w motor as 750w they can just label it as 500w. So while the law is clear on what makes a legal street bike they are all different and there is no regulations. How can...

Sorry for all the replies.. Some one asked for some bike porn of my bike so here it is

Nope bought it in Canada because again it's not illegal as some will make you feel on here to own a bike that is above 1000w it is just against the Highway Traffic Act to ride it on Ontario roads. What is I wanted to buy the bike to ride on my farm all day? Its private land and the Highway...

It's not illegal it just violate a rule in the Highway Traffic Act, a tuckable offence if driven on Ontario roads. I can ride private all I want! It's always good to know your rights and know the law and how it applies to you :)

What ramifications???? I think you are being a bit paranoid. The only thing I will get is a ticket! if I get into an accident then they have to prove because its 1000w it somehow caused the accident! There is no ramifications!

Exactly, There is no industry standard even for what a 500w motor is anyways so there is no way to prove it!. Most motors rated for 500w are way above 500w. For example I have an iGo ebike (My partners bike now) that I used to commute to work throttle only as I didn't peddle much and it was at...

This is a great point and I have already verified with my insurance company that I have full coverage for liability for me and for anything I could hit and it does not matter if I'm doing wheelies down the road and hit someone or being a good driver and hit some one, I am covered. But it is...

@RabH Please don't take my comment as rude its hard on the internet to not be blunt. I get what you are saying, if the law says 500w we should be following it. But also don't get wrapped up in laws the only exist to give law enforcement a way to deal with a person that's breaking the law. If...

I ride my bike like it's a class 2 when on the road and never go over 30km/h so please explain how I am the problem. Get off the soap box.
