    After a ridiculous amount of thought I'm going to start my Kona Hoss BBSHD build

    I sold my A2B Metro ebike last fall due to no longer needing it for commuting. However, I miss it and I want something to explore trails and old forestry roads west of Calgary. The A2B was a direct drive 500w rear hub motor, 36v 13ah battery, and had 20" wheels with a frustratingly difficult to...

    Mid drive on Yukon?

    Thanks for the input, I ordered a 68mm BBSHD and 48v 21ah battery today to install on my 2007 Kona Hoss 22" frame. Total cost (less bike which I bought new in 2007 for about $900 CAN) approximately $1500 CAN, if it works out well and I use it a lot this year I'll consider getting a fat tire bike...

Though since posting my question I'm leaning strongly...

    Voltbike Yukon 750 vs Biktrix Duo 750 hub vs other?

    I've recently sold my A2B Metro ebike, great for commuting but no good off road mostly due to the small diameter wheels and poor tire options. I bought it used about 10 years ago and got good service from it. It was 36v 12ish Ah 500w direct drive hub peaking close to 750w. Now I'm looking for a...
