Here is another interesting candidate, 26 lbs for the carbon version! https://eeyo.bike/

i just saw this yesterday. Its a very interesting idea, I hope it actually pans out. It might be perfect for my Rolhoff equipped conventional bicycle. https://pendix.com/edrive/emachine

I started this thread because I would like to have a light, simple, singlespeed ebike. i think that such an ebike with a 250 w motor putting out 40 nm of torque would be workable with a 65-70 gear inch gear ratio. Never know unless I try it!

Actually a chain on that singlespeed would definitely be easier…and cheaper

I am a Luddite, old and cranky, and I abandoned Facebook several years ago, so I cant even see which bike shop in Medellin you are referring to. There are probably several hundred. Thanks for trying, but I do not have any desire to pursue that route. If I do opt for that, I have 2-excellent...

Thanks, but I am not interested in a throttle equipped bike, and my understanding is that all of the roadsters come with a throttle now

You have many of the same “second thoughts” that I have suffered through. I realized after about 3 months that the SL would have been a more appropriate selection for me. But I have decided to make the best of it for the immediate future! so what I have done is concentrate on the good points...

I dont know about any of that, but what I do know is that I have seen lots of cheap hub drive bikes cruising up the hills where I live. Many times they have groceries on the racks. So I know that hub drives can handle these hills. They are not long climbs, the steep ramps are usually less...

First, I am not looking for an ebike that will go up the hill unassisted. I am looking for a boost. I can make it on my 20 pound bicycle on a good day. A boost of a few nm of torque and I am definitely where I want to be. Working hard but not max effort to get up the steep ramps. For me an...

I have been looking at a lot of ebikes, and I havent found one that is “ just what I am looking for” yet. here is what I am looking for: singlespeed configuration rear hub drive minimum of 45 nm torque torque sensor disc brakes total weight less than 10 kg (44 lbs) could be either belt or chain...

Victimless until said cyclist gets t-boned by a car driving through a green light

I have to add a little caveat here. Everyone seems to be hypnotized by IGH HUBS with belt drive. IMHO for single speed, fixed gear, or IGH a belt drive has a couple of advantages vs a chain: lighter, quieter, no grease. The chain drive system on the other had has some real and substantial...

Damn I wish Specialized would offer the Turbo Vado SL in Colombia!

Lectric bikes may make great products, and have stellar support, but unfortunately for me, none of the models shown on their website are of any interest to me. I am interested in an electric assisted bicycle, not an electric moped with pedals. No disrespect there at all, there is a niche in...

I am a bit confused here. It has a pedelec mode (which is what I am looking for) and a throttle mode (which I do not want!)?

If I am not mistaken, the Lemond e-bikes are made in the USA, the carbon frames are actually manufactured in Ky I believe. They are pricey but they are also unreal light!

Does anyone know if the current production models of the V2 Roadster gravel edition is a pedelec or does it have a throttle? If it’s a pedelec does it use a torque sensor or cadence sensor?

Maybe I missed it, but I haven’t seen any mention of the Arcimoto mean lean machine. Not in production yet, but they are producing and selling their other models and I think the MLM will make it into production. Arcimoto is based in Eugene Oregon https://www.arcimoto.com/mlm

So far, riding my Turbo Vado 4.0 around Medellin I find that I average about 1 km per 1 % Battery drain. Medellin is a big valley and the floor sits just above 5000’. The valley floor slopes, so most of the time I am either gently descending or gently ascending. I live on the hillside on the...
