    Need NEW conversion motor for Kalkoff E-bike

    That was a really good book. I loved it. And I loved it when her magical giant sled dog-wolf barfs an intact walrus onto Freud's rug! How's that for a phallus? She starts as the Whore of Frankenstein covered in jiz and by the end is a transcendent immortal goddess. Mary Shelley wrote the...

    Battery Display Settings

    This is why we have peer review. They have Samsung 35e cells with super premium BMS. Never run it all the way into the ground. And never, never leave it like that. The display shows half-bars.

    Battery Display Settings

    I agree. Most go down to 40V as the low limit. The batteries I use I think are different than most and it works just fine this way. Good point. Other systems might be different in the details but the concept of the chi square shaped distribution curve is still there.

    Need NEW conversion motor for Kalkoff E-bike

    The "algia" part of nostalgia means sickness. It originally had 200W; so, as sucky as a Stefan bike.

    Need NEW conversion motor for Kalkoff E-bike

    @EMXG, She had the old battery repacked. It still does not run. Port three may be for communication with the controller. Just like a speed sensor has three wires, red, black, white. White is the signal.

    Battery Display Settings

    Often on bikes the highest bar on the display showing remaining battery power takes you the most miles. The last bar takes you the fewest miles. What if each bar took you the same number of miles? How would you program that? I am programing a bike right now. It has a 48V nominal battery. The...

    Need NEW conversion motor for Kalkoff E-bike

    Even if the bracket were cut off there is a long horizontal section of the down tube. The motor would be too low and subject to strikes. I have made major mods to frames. But just get a different starter bike.

    The transition

    Yesterday at 5:00 was a big group ride that included lots of kids. It was promoted at all the grade schools. It was inculcation of the next generation of cycling citizens. It was slow, but worth it. We had to cross two major streets and I put myself out in the middle to aid the crossings. The...

    The bike is a Yuba Mundo cargo bike. It has a TSDZ2, before the 'B' addition. I now use the DM02 with a different mounting system that is quiet. The climate in Coastal Nor. Cal. allows for riding bikes all year.

    The transition

    A family was struggling to replace a second car. I made a kid hauler cargo eBike for them. The mom uses it for 90% of trips in town, saving them $1000 per month in payments, insurance, depreciation, licensing fees, gas, and maintenance. That frees up $12,000 per year and they have had it...

    As of late April 2026, Marin County has some of the highest gas prices in California and the nation, with averages for regular unleaded hovering around $6.20 to $6.27 per gallon. Prices in the Bay Area have surged due to Middle East tensions impacting oil supply, making Marin one of the most...

    If I had a Tacoma I would add an 'M' to the end and then a space to the middle. That way it would be a Taco Mama. There is nothing like fresh made tortillas.

    They were also chain smoking unfiltered ciggy's in confined areas. There were sets of days when a person could not see across the street.

    Need NEW conversion motor for Kalkoff E-bike

    Exactly. This woman's starter bike was $100 at a yardsale. It was a Covid buy and never ridden. I gave it some upgrades and installed the motor and battery. The tires had a seam flap of rubber along the center. New its a $900 starter bike. Now it will rundown and pass $14,400 bikes from stores...

    Clicking Noise At My Bike Rear Wheel

    The thing to do with a double walled aluminum rim is to put a couple of BBs between the walls. The sound goes away at speed. Then crazy glue one BB inside each schrader valve cap, so when the caps are tightened air is slowly released. And if it has an external PAS magnet wheel, then reverse its...
