Here’s an update of my ebike experience so far with many thanks to all who answered my earlier posts. I’m delighted with my Cube Touring Hybrid 625. I passed the 1st year on my ebike in late September for 5200Km (3231mls) plus another 800Km (500mls) on my other bikes. Once I realised how much...

Great autumn weather here in Ireland yesterday. Normal service resumes later today, heavy rain!

Done. Hopefully, you will get a wide cross-section of cycling society to participate in your survey. Wishing you all the best for your thesis.

Thanks all. Mine is a mid-drive and I reckon the chain has now done its work. Time to change before damage is done.

I have 3380km (2100miles) on my 12 speed Cube eBike. Is that about it for chain wear or should I expect much more?

You should try aviation where altitude is in feet, runway visibility is in meters and speed is in knots. But hey, it all works!

Weather is a little warmer here in Ireland (+15c) than Canada for much the same latitude. I took a ride yesterday to Dunany Beach, north of Drogheda, absolutely deserted. The route gives good views over Dundalk Bay. There were a few Brent Geese out near the water's edge, too far away to...

Your '252 steps' photo was very nicely composed.

You should be able to feel the vibration when the phone rings!

Spring is coming to Ireland at last. Time for my first post on this thread. This ride is northwest of Drogheda so I stopped at some 10th century ruins at Monasterboice and Old Mellifont Abbey. Then on to the Boyne canal, built between 1748 and 1800 which bypassed the rapids to allow canal barges...

Interesting survey. I hope you get sufficient responses from a wide enough cohort to make your survey valid. Best of luck with your thesis.

Hi Stefan, I left the tyre pressure at 3.8Bar. Yes, the 159km was on one battery charge from fully charged to zero Kms range indicated. However, it was divided into trips on several days and I made a big effort to use as little battery as possible.. I re-charged the battery fully and set off...

Hi Stefan & JRA, Thanks for the correction. Henceforth, I will refer only to Wh/Km. The Intuvia display only gives 5 bars to indicate battery charge. So the actual charge could be anywhere in that 20% segment, assuming that the bars are more or less linear, which might be a big assumption. I...

I realised the hills were getting tougher with every passing year so I bought myself a Cube Touring Hybrid EXC 625 recently. It’s much like a Kathmandu with a Performance Gen 3 drive/65Nm and a 40T crank with12 speed 10/51T derailleur. With this setup I hope to resume touring the Wild Atlantic...

Hi, I recently bought a Cube with the Intuvia display. The first thing I noticed was that the distance recorded was much higher than my Garmin GPS. I reduced the circumference setting over a few rides until both were reading the same.
