    Torque sensor not working

    I've tried everything I can to get my torque sensor working on my 1st ebike. 2014 Eflow E3 Nitro, great fun ride, but the torque sensor is fickle and frustrating! Anyone know if there's a replacement or upgrade available to use? I know the technology has improved, and newer bikes are much...

    Unsolicited comments about your ebike lately?

    I haven't gotten any snarky remarks since I stopped passing the Lance wannabe crowd! After I thought about it, I would've been PO'd too back when I was younger and riding to train for a race or event. Now I just take a different route when I see a paceline in front of me. The rest of the people...

    Anyone just do a basic ebike conversion

    Viribus kit, 1000w hub for 28" wheel. 48V 14ah battery. Nothing special, but we'll see how it works out.

    Anyone just do a basic ebike conversion

    Well, the bike is together. No testing yet, but it runs and moves. Lots of tweaking and tuning, but it's assembled! I wanted a bike that didn't look like an ebike, and think I got it! Will let you know how it works and rides. Stay tuned!

    Anyone just do a basic ebike conversion

    I'm into my build, and ran into a problem I need your help with. My bike has Shimano Hyperdrive system, which uses an all in one gear shift/brake. I took off the front derailleur and brake lever combo, and replaced it with the brake only lever with power cutoff that came with my kit. I'm fine...

    Anyone just do a basic ebike conversion

    Good intel, people! I'm gonna go with adding a hub motor/rear wheelset, keep it very basic, with a cadence sensor and cutoffs with a base monitor. Battery and controller mounted to rear rack, hidden inside a storage bag to keep it stealthy. Most of my riding is flat, paved using PAS about 50%...

    Anyone just do a basic ebike conversion

    Has anyone done a simple, basic conversion to a nice donar bike. What I'm thinking is, add a hub motor/ rear wheel, throttle and skip the sensors, cut offs, etc. Just basically power a regular bike with a throttle only. Thoughts?

    Where To Vacation With Paved Bicycle Trails, E-Bike Rentals & Nearby Lodging?

    As a former icehead from MinDak area, spent lots of time in Bemidji area. Lots of great trails there, almost all paved dedicated to bikes in summer and snowmobile in winter. Here in FL the rail to trails are pretty extensive. OP was correct too, when it gets below 60 here, no one ventures out...

    New old guy in FL

    Nice to meet y'all! I did get my old bike to behave on a ride yesterday, and when it works it's more fun than a barrel of monkeys! Got a wonky torque sensor, Sondors has a cadence sensor, which always works. Ride mostly mornings, temps cooler, rain usually happens in PM.Gotta keep moving, active...

    New old guy in FL

    Howdy all! Found this venue while looking for info on my oldest bike Thought I'd stay awhile and see what's new. Been cycling for 40+years, built bikes from scratch, raced some, but mostly like being in the saddle outdoors and enjoying the ride. Got into ebikes like most when time caught up to...
