Allston has a chromoly fork, am unsure on size but believe if's standard? It sounds like I definitely should stick to...

    Montague Allston Conversion

    Thanks @Art Deco - can I ask what you ended up doing instead? I"ve probably gotta dig into the builds/conversions forum to get a sense of whether there's a cheap kit out there, haven't heard of the Bionix ones before so will check those out too. I don't own the bike yet, trying to keep my...

    Montague Allston Conversion

    Hi all, I'm looking at converting a Montague Allston and am curious what kits you all would recommend? Looking at a front hub motor and a battery that mounts on the downtube or on bottle cage bosses. I'd like to convert the Montague Allston because: 1.) Bike storage in my building is down a...

    A Detailed Purchasing Question

    Seems like OP has probably made up their mind - personally I’m looking for a full-size folder with a belt drive, which has been leading me to look at converting a Montague Allston. Am unsure what the best kit is though. Looking for something intuitive and, if possible, easy to remove.

    Second gen Bosch Performance CX question

    Thanks! Good to know it's not just like riding in an imperfect gear. I think I'll look more towards the active line or just wait until the newer performance line bikes get discounted a bit. Much appreciated.

    Second gen Bosch Performance CX question

    Hi all, I'm considering getting an ebike with an older Bosch system, to offset the cost a bit, and I'm wondering about how much friction the reduction gearing system creates when pedaling unpowered. I do like the flexibility of pedaling unpowered, and in previous threads in the forum, Court...

    Really fascinating to follow your journey, Marc! Are you presently still on hold / are most of the borders closed where you are? How are you faring?
