    My OneMotor review

    Most ebike batteries are rated for a certain number of cycles (full charges) so they don't give a time period. I can't recall what 1M said, but I'm sure it's on their website. Most of the batteries I've seen are either 500, 1000, or 2000 charges, with the prices increasing dramatically with the...

    Review: My OneMotor drive (formerly Shareroller)

    The thing is that the 1M works on multiple bikes. I've got two, many people subscribe to the N+1 so they have more than that. Even an inexpensive hub system will easily cost that much for two bikes. Yes, it is pricey if you have one bike, unless it's a super light road bike and you want a...

    While I normally don't like to ride at night ... at all ... I ended up needing to go about a mile and half after dark yesterday. I put on my little blinky lights and set out. I was really surprised by how well the blinking lights on the 1M worked! They annoy the crap out of me during the day...

    I reached out-give it a week and let me know if you hear.

    Hi. What's your backer #? I can reach out to Grace for you. Fwiw, they are working 12 hours a day, 6 days a week, to get units shipped. It's just the two of them. And - folks who get more recent units are going to have some improvements baked in; I'm going to have to send mine back to get the...

    The price is competitive, especially given the ability to use on multiple devices. If it's too pricey for you, then just move on already.

    Review: My OneMotor drive (formerly Shareroller)

    EBR (Court) now charges suppliers for reviews. 1M is reinvesting every dime into product improvement (they just bought and installed a new high-end 3d printer). Supplying units to less popular review sites probably isn't going to generate enough to compensate for a lost sale. At some point...

    Review: My OneMotor drive (formerly Shareroller)

    I always envisioned taking my bike with the motor traveling, but you made me realize something - I don't always have to do so. The kickstand mount is universal, as you said, and it's a single bolt attachment so super easy to install. It's also automatic in positioning. So, as you said, I can...

    Best 1M moment today - some little middle school teen twerps were riding towards me on the bike path and one twerp decide to "play chicken" and try to scare me off the path (a wide path with a dividing line). I turned around and flipped on my motor and hit the throttle...he and his little...

    Mounted a Marathon Racer on my pakiT's rear wheel yesterday. This is the same tire I have on the 20" Dahon Mu Uno I ride. The kojak is a softer tire compound and I found the racer seemed to work better with the 1M so wanted to try one on the pakiT. Because of the increased tire volume I had to...

    You can hardly even see the motor but it's there - 25 miles today around the Bay and over to Treasure Island. I got home with just a little juice left (11%) but my friend had dropped her car off for service and they told her she would have to wait 45 minutes extra for the shuttle driver so - I...

    1M has revised their software so that the assist kicks in faster on take off, which is great. Right now, I pedal a full revolution before the assist is applied - which would be fine except I shift up a few gears when using the assist so there is a lot more resistance unless I remember to...

    Review: My OneMotor drive (formerly Shareroller)

    Today I appreciated the versatility of the 1M system. I had to run an errand and hadn't gotten around to charging, so I had about half a battery for the motor and about half a battery for the handlebar controller but I had run the PAS sensor dry since I use it all the time. So - I threw the PAS...

    We need pictures! And, of course, to hear what you think. I'm super excited for you, I know your install will be super easy (the Brompton mount is not as complicated as mine was). Be careful, don't go speeding like a looney right away, get used to it first. Have a blast!!!!

    Review: My OneMotor drive (formerly Shareroller)

    So I have definitely found the sweet spot using my 1M. I have pretty severe osteoarthritis in one knee, and I'm used to being in pain the night after a ride. I don't feel any pain while riding, it comes later. As result, I've been riding my BF in 5th gear, easy gear inches, and spinning a high...

    Ok well today's ride was awesome! My son kept up his usual 22-24mph, and using level 1 and sometimes level 2 PAS with 7th gear and pedaling my ass off (90rpm) I managed to only run a little behind him. I was being really careful about battery usage since I had no idea how much further we would...

    Big ride planned tomorrow 33 miles with my adult son. 1M will be absolutely necessary so he doesn't have to wait for me every mile to catch up. Should be fun. Learned today that using my 1M can actual provide great exercise - as much as riding manually but in a shorter time. With the motor set...

    Ok, totally unrelated to biking (I'm home with a nasty cold so not riding) I realized as I was thinking about putting together an earthquake kit (been "thinking" about it for decades, lol) that my 1M battery will charge my phone multiple times if the power goes out for a long time. Kind of a...

    Ok, keep in mind my measurements are not precise, I'm using a sewing tape measure, lol. Approx. 4cm around the tubes, about 4 cm for the length of the bracket itself, and about 6 cm between the tubes. The distance between the tube fittings is adjusted by two long bolts that connect the two...
