It’s looking awesome mate! Especially the custom frame bag - sounds like an exciting adventure in your future. Can I ask a question? Given the hauling power of the eBike and fact you’ve got front fork panniers on your bike, going super aerodynamic probably not the #1 factor in terms of bags…...

Looking really good mate! I was thinking about front fork storage for my gravel bike. I usually ride with a water bladder backpack which is great for fluid hydration, but also means carrying up to 3kg on your back when it's full. I was thinking about storing water on the forks so may look at...

I’m also in South Island (chch) and took about 3-6months to spot another one… in fact it was a pair, with stunning custom pink paint jobs: I saw quite a few more in Switzerland & Germany in January this year

C Could you have placed your wheels on the 'rail' to the right of the stairs and used walk assist mode to walk it up the smooth part of the stairwell? I have a Rohloff on my custom bikepacking gravel bike (not electric) and was also disappointed to get an oil leak around the 2K mark. ruined...

The irony was I riding a very, very safe trail at slow/moderate speeds so it’s inexplicable how it happened and the injury is completely disproportionate to the risk unfortunately. Knee pads would likely be great protection against abrasions and impact injuries. I suspect I must have applied...

thank you my friend - I'll be back on the bike in a few months!

Great looking bike - enjoy! I’ve got the Matte Curry version and love it so much. Sadly, I’ve not been able to ride it for seven weeks after falling off my eMTB and rupturing my quadriceps tendon. I needed a surgical knee reconstruction and looking at 9-12months for full recovery. 😔 This is...

About 30cm (forum not letting me upload photo right now )

I love that bike shops are engaging customers in a way like this -high engagement. I wish my LBS did this stuff.

I saw this from an Auckland, New Zealand based eBike store. They're hosting a guy who biked the length of NZ on a Delite as part of the Tour Aotearoa route (Tour Aotearoa: Home) and then came back via the Sounds to Sounds route (Tour Aotearoa: Sound to Sound) Impressive stuff! Looks like it's...

Varia all the way for me - I mount with a cheap bracket off Amazon on my seat. Works perfect. All the reviews of the Varia with camera say it sucks. I don’t have the camera version but I do have a Garmin Dashcam that has the same camera and app software to connect and THAT does suck too. To the...

I get your feeling, and I too always want to make sure what I buy is the latest model so it ages well. That said, I’ve got the SC2 with your motor and my wife has the so called “smart system” on her Multi charger mixte - I don’t see too much on there to rave about to be honest. It still feels...

Christchurch Electric Bicycles

yes, I had to walk up there with my suitcase to our hotel! glad we got the free transport ticket from the hotel so we could ride the MRT up and down the hill to the waterfront each day. Beautiful city.

Thanks @Gaylween - I had an amazing time in Lausanne on my wider trip - there are a few photos here if you're interested (I'm sure you'll recognise a few places): Favourites (adobe.com) 2016 Roadster hey! Positively vintage! I was impressed that Switzerland and Germany had so many bikes...

same for me.

Wow - you've done some legit distances on your collection of bikes mate! Impressive stuff. I'd love to see some photos of your touring set up if you were willing to share? Interesting problems you've encountered - I'm sitting around 11,500km on my SC2 now and it's mostly still going in good...

Yes, Switzerland is tough on our exchange rate - in Zurich 2x Japanese bento lunchboxes and 2x drink = NZD$114 ! Lausanne, 3x vegetarian taco & 1x quesadilla & 2x soft drinks = NZD$85 Munich proving a bit cheaper. Didn’t manage to get to Amsterdam this time - keen to return for that though

Nope, been all over the place. My daughter did a semester in Glasgow and I was picking her up from there, so we have been: Scotland: Glasgow, St Andrew’s, Edinburgh Ireland: Dublin Northern Ireland: Ballyclare, Giants Causeway, Belfast England: London France: Paris Switzerland: Lausanne (on...
