    European members: Speed unlocker and police

    Well, you know we Greeks say I bought a pig in a bag (and what a BIG PIG) this is, but I trusted the reviews. I am sure it won't fail me. I am so looking forward to this bike!

    I carry pepper spray too... :) Thanks for the info. Money is an object. This bike is like a dream come true. Like when I was a child and would save up the whole year to buy a game on Christmas.

    European members: Speed unlocker and police

    Thanks but I do not want a bike for commuting. I am an enduro rider. I ordered a fully mountain bike, I just thought that with a speed upgrade I could possibly have better chances at escaping those *** dogs that are lurking literally everywhere. And anyway, if I were to go through the hassle of...

    European members: Speed unlocker and police

    Hey everybody, I ordered an ebike with Bosch Performance and I would like to have the speed unlocker installed. Recently I read that this is totally illegal in Greece (and probably in Europe) and a ridiculously huge fine awaits the black sheep who dare break the law. Now, I never heard of anyone...

    I do not smoke and I exercise outdoors more than the average person. I am just a low energy person and I can't handle high power exercise well. I am always left behind when hiking or mountain biking. But I love being outdoors for hours exercsing moderately. An eMTB might help me catch up with...

    Thanks, that is encouraging. I am at your age too and I have never been a fitness monster. But I love to pedal, I really do.

    Thanks, I hear you. After COVID I will have access to dealers in Thessaloniki. I am sure I will love any eMTB I ride first time, because compared to my turtle speed going uphill while my lungs feel they are about to burst, I am sure it will feel like a superpower. But if I can't compare the...

    Thanks for the advice. I really do not know what to do, I wish I could test ride both a Bafang monster bike and a light weight Bosch bike for a month in my area to decide... Price is a problem actually and if I do not do my own conversion whatever I buy is already expensive enough. But if I do...

    Yeah, Frey Ex Pro is one of the many options I am looking at. The weight is my concern - if it is agile on the trails. How does it ride for you? What do you use it for?

    I live in Greece in an endless mountain forest with no soul around but me and my bike. So I am not worries about illegal. I want to explore every corner of our mountain so that is why I need the torque. But I thought that if i want to cozy ride around and exercise myself I can still set the...

    Good points there! But regarding the superbike vs cheap conversion this is unfair, cause I would not convert a piece of junk to en eMTB but rather fit a superbike with a motor and a battery, if I were to convert it on my own. And if I put the BBSHD with a 52V21Amp battery on a superbike I will...

    Hello, thank you for your insight, I really appreciate that. Can you please ellaborate on Bafang" and "e-MTB" don't agree with each other well. What do you mean by "heavy illegal bikes ride you" as opposed to you ride them?

    Thank you for your feedback! Actually I am thinking about either doing my own conversion with the BBSHD on a second hand downhill or all mountain bike with the proper frame, which will be relatively lightweight, or, alternativey, buying a bike from a manufacturer which will already have the M620...

    Hello everybody, thank you for accepting me in this community, nice to be here. I need an eMTB in my life and I was hoping you could advise me on what to buy. I live in a mountain forest area with endless steepy trails full of rocks and fallen branches, but also with long, cozy service roads for...
