    Pedals Locked to Rear Wheel - if Rear Wheel turns, pedals turn

    Not sure what I'm doing wrong. Hub Motor. I don't know what you call the set of gears on the rear wheel, but on the old setup they could stay still while the wheel turned. On the new hub motor they are locked so that if the rear wheel turns, the pedals turn with it. This can't be right? It...

    Roguoo Worlds Most Comfortable Bike Seat ?

    You know, I have a seat similar to the Rogouu one I posted above and you know what? It is large and seems to get in the way when you're peddling, creating extra unwanted friction against the seat with every down stroke. The seat you posted might eliminate that issue.

    Roguoo Worlds Most Comfortable Bike Seat ?

    List time I did a 26 mile ride on my mountain bike (peddle power only) I couldn't walk properly for a few days. It's flat amazing how painful a seat can become on a long ride especially if it's only your pedal power moving it.

    Looking for recommendation for cheap ebike. Probably asking the impossible.

    The ebike was her only bike. She gave up on bikes after that. I forgot the name brand but it was purchased from a high end ebike store locally and cost a fortune (imo)

    Looking for recommendation for cheap ebike. Probably asking the impossible.

    I'll let you know. He who dies with the most "toys" wins ! PLENTY YouTube videos where people have bought and assembled cheap Amazon or ebay ebike kits and enjoyed them for years. A gal down the street spent $2000 on her top quality ebike and it was put to the curb as garbage just into the...

    Looking for recommendation for cheap ebike. Probably asking the impossible.

    ebay or Amazon KIT $320+ 10Ah Chinese ebay battery $200 All you have to do is put it all together. Viola !! How long will it last is anyones guess. But a year is a reasonable expectation. With very good care, maybe two.

    Would either or both of these ebike batteries be OK ?

    By being a member of numerous Lithium Battery forums and many forums where those batteries are used frequently. How many people use this forum? How many members of this forum have had such a catastrophic failure? Let's see your evidence that the statistics support your claim. There are tens...

    Would either or both of these ebike batteries be OK ?

    Fortunately, there are nowhere near as many horror stories to publish as some would have others believe. And many if not most of those can be traced to user error. Maybe not "everyone", but most people probably have no problem telling of their bad experience because it helps others. I suppose...

    Would either or both of these ebike batteries be OK ?

    The example you posted only pertains to cylindrical cell packs. such as 18650. LiFePO4 ebike packs do not have cylindrical cells to rub together so they are not subject to this issue.

    Would either or both of these ebike batteries be OK ?

    That price is for the 10Ah battery. The 20Ah battery is around $320. I have considerable experience with LiFePO4 and Lithium batteries. I have conducted reliable tests on the battery I received. as noted above it seems to pass all tests. I have no complaints at this time. If and when I do...

    Would either or both of these ebike batteries be OK ?

    Not really. Very few batteries are capacity rated at 1C. Normally much lower than 1C. like .1C or .2C or less. Walmart group 29C large Marine deep cycle batteries are rated at 825CCA and 122Ah (at ONE AMP discharge rate) Most batteries are not frequently used at a discharge rate of 1C...

    Would either or both of these ebike batteries be OK ?

    Good information. Thanks Do you know the weight of your inbound 25Ah pack ? Mine is 14lbs or 6.35kg. A bit on the heavy side maybe. What makes my battery much more tolerable to me is the fact that it is a 1 Kw battery pack so it will also be very handy in case of power outages. Dual purpose.
