    eProdigy's secret sauce?

    I don't know, most likely plastic composite but you can ask the company in Canada.

    eProdigy's secret sauce?

    The only thing similar between the eprodigy and the TQ is the placement at the center of the bottom bracket. The eprodigy uses an outrunner motor design (similar to many hub drives) and the gear reduction is by the use of planetary gears...

    Going against the trend and changing my 9 speed from a wide ratio mtb cassette to a close ratio road bike cassette. (11-36 to 13-25)

    I know people here wants the widest range possible so they can conquer the steepest hills and also pedal on the down hill at 30 mph. After more than 2000 miles on my full suspension Giant Stance2 with BBSHD and 48 teeth chain ring, I haven't really used the top end except when going down hill...

    Changed Cassette, Not Happy

    \ You need to have a cadence meter so you can accurately describe what spinning too fast is to you and what comfortable cadence is for you. On, my ebike if I want to maintain higher speed, I use the 9th gear of my 10 speed ebike since the 10th gear gives me a slower cadence (of less than 80...

    Changed Cassette, Not Happy

    If you don't want the assist to cut off at 20 mph, you might consider a simple trick by fooling the speed sensor. https://www.ebiketuning.com/e-bike-tuning/badass-box.html

    Jones H-Loop shamelessly copied

    Jones H-Loop shamelessly copied

    It is a blatant patent violation but just like everything else, China has violated all kinds of patent and trademark laws in the book with impunity. The entire country does not observe the international patent and trademark law, in fact, the government seemingly promotes people to do it. It's...

    E-unicycles are getting more popular now. What's your opinion on it?

    I searched about e-unicycle crashes and apparently, these are just few of the causes; 1. Speed wobble. 2. power cutting off / loose connection / system failure. 3. Over-riding the top speed and falling off forward. 4. Rolling over a big bump or deep pot hole. The fact that it relies on the...

    E-unicycles are getting more popular now. What's your opinion on it?

    I guess it makes you do core strengthening exercise to keep yourself balanced and also muscle toning on both the midsection and lower body. Probably a viable option to alternate with cycling exercise.

    Actually, ebikes will get you much LESS exercise

    I wouldn't be riding that long if it's not an ebike since the hills and head winds take away the fun of bike riding in the first place.

    Added rear dual panniers would be nice to increase the cargo capacity. Cool thou.

    Hub drive vs mid drive, round 2.

    Probably someone else did the test drive on Pedego mid drive. Since the BBSHD has no torque sensor, it would feel sluggish from the start up. The torque sensor on other ebikes ramps up the power at low speed / low cadence to help you accelerate from a stop. That's where the throttle comes in...

    Long Commute - 70 miles round trip for eNoob

    If you don't want the fat tire, there is another capable ebike (the CCX) that competes with the Stromer market in terms of performance and application and also has the 1 Kwh battery and a horn option. youtube.com/watch?v=S2Cl2A0GCjA

    For those who are shopping for their first e-bike....

    Most people here have been to a lot of ebikes, mid drives, hub drives, class 1,2,3, cadence only sensor, torque sensor, manufacturer and LBS support, owner serviceability, etc.. You name it, you'll get an answer. Seek and you shall find, ask and you shall receive.
