    The "UNOFFICIAL" Helios FAQ thread....

    I know pushkar reported in another thread some time ago that he had heard bad reports about a SA with more gears (5 or 8 I think) and thats why he went to SA3. Hope pushkar responds to this question.

    The "UNOFFICIAL" Helios FAQ thread....

    Oh no, darn. What happened to the SA 3 speed option? I want rear igh with gates belt and now only a $1,3000 Kindernay is showing on the configuration page even though it still shows up on the chart page. That puts the bike futher out of my range. Anyone know why the change.

    anyone wondered how to convert hill steepness between degrees and %?

    I know this is not exactly what this post is about but it gave me an idea of what to expect. here’s a rough guide to how various gradients might feel: 0%: A flat road 1-3%: Slightly uphill but not particularly challenging. A bit like riding into the wind. 4-6%: A manageable gradient that can...

    Frey's new 2021 model

Is he no longer a dealer for you? "Hello guys. I’m Simon from England in the United Kingdom and just joined...

    Early Stages But Kyle Chittock of Bolton Ebikes is Alright With Me

    I wonder if the Archon x1 that watt wagon sells and is using as an option on their bikes could be added. Reports say it makes the ultra as refined and smooth as any mid motor available. Maybe Kyle could offer that as an option.

    Apples to Apples? Bosch vs. Bafang Ultra

    McCorby, you may want to look into the controller that Watt Wagon uses, the ARCHON X. It gets rave reviews for adressing the jerkiness you mention of the Ultra.

    Hydra - Kindernay vs. Rohloff?

    I would also like some comments not only about durability but how this handles an occasional steep hill on paved roads. I don't think I can do the additional $1,000+ for the other igh. Thanks for any help especially if you have used the Sturmey.

    Does the Dost use torque or cadence sensors?

    Here is the one from EBR also saying it is cadence not torque. "The Bafang BBS02 is known for being reliable, fairly quiet, and very powerful, but it only utilizes pedal cadence signals vs. cadence and torque. This means that motor power output isn’t as fluid or dynamic, based on how hard you...

    Does the Dost use torque or cadence sensors?

    This is what Electricbikereview review said in their review. "DOST Bikes has outfitted the Drop with a mid-drive 750W Bafang motor with 1000W of peak power and 120Nm of torque. This hearty motor is mounted low and centered on the bike. The motor relies on a 24 magnet cadence sensor to provide...

    Priority Bicycles just launched the most affordable Gates belt mid-drive e-bike

    If the Current just had front suspension (a throttle would an extra bonus for me) they would have my money even if it added a bit to the price.

    Priority Embark anyone?

    The Prority Current looks nice but I wish they offered it with front suspension. I know it would add a bit to the price but not that much and would greatly increase the number of potential buyers.
