    Pure torque control. Cadence and others if included leads to unnatural ride.

    I hsve nrver felt that. if I rest my foot on my petal a bit to hard the ike will jump forward. worse when I was ruolling the bike in my shop and the pedal hit something it would jerk forward. there is no delay at all. even on my bosch powered tandem.

    Comfortable E bike seat

    for me I found the seat that works best but if I am tired or sick then it feels hard as a rock with sharp edges, when I feel ok it's fine very frustrating. but when I am that tired even a padded chair feels hard.

    Show Us a Tool

    I wanted a small pen to carry with me and I love the fisher space pens as they always write. I found a cool really small one with a keyring so got it on my clip-on ring and it took a month or so and it unscrewed and fell apart. I lucked out and found the parts and used some purple Loctite on it...

    Pure torque control. Cadence and others if included leads to unnatural ride.

    No lagging power delivery on the start on my motor. It even from start to finish. if the system is not setup for it you may not be able to do anything about it.

    Pure torque control. Cadence and others if included leads to unnatural ride.

    having a motor is artificial. torque sensing is artificial. adding them together makes the bike feel great. bosch and specialized and such make great feeling bikes some of the best and they don't just use torque sensing.

    Pure torque control. Cadence and others if included leads to unnatural ride.

    if you have a bosch or specialized or such they use a lot of sensors including cadence. without all those its never as smooth.

    The Dirty Dozen - A 37% Grade Hill Climb in Pittsburgh

    he is on a road bike so you're kinda stuck. but if you had a 20t-50 it would make a big difference. on our tandem, we did a 22% grade and we put out 450 watts the motor was bottomed out and we just made it. when I did 550 watts it about killed me but I still found the bosch had not quite reached...

    The Dirty Dozen - A 37% Grade Hill Climb in Pittsburgh

    nope unless really low gearing. to climb a 20% grade on my trek and keep the rpms around 80 I had to put out 550 watts. in turbo you may get up a 20% grade in turbo and only put out 200 watts. but remember that motor will only put out that much torque if you're putting out a s*it ton of torque...

    Is mid-drive vs hub drive efficiency differential affect by pedaling cadence?

    Plus your stuck with a free hub with lousy gearing unless you have a grin motor
