I think its a rack time. Form and function are hand and glove with it. Everything you can think of snaps securely on it.What’s with the tiny little cargo rack? Yes, it’s aesthetically pleasing, but form and function seem to have gone in opposite directions here. Otherwise, a nice looking machine.
Thanks. I’ll check ‘em out. Do they sell here in the states?I think its a rack time. Form and function are hand and glove with it. Everything you can think of snaps securely on it.
Any regular old school rack seems wide and secure- until you try bungeeing stuff to it. Racktime is the best thing to come out of Europe………………………………………….maybe ever!
To be a truly 45kph (28mph), ebike, it has to have a chain ring with a minmum tooth count of 46. Your cadence will be at most 80 rpm at 28 mph.I dunno, but for me personally being limited to 25Km/h is "what the hell is the point" territory. Even at 32Km/h I get passed by regular road bike cyclists.
Other than that, nice looking bike.

25 km
Because it's designed for use in a country that's located in the heart of the Alps...
I mean even if you delimit the speed, at 36 teeth you will be "clown pedaling" at 102 rpm going at 28 mph.Chain ring isn't the issue here, it's limited to 25km/h. That front chain ring can be upgraded pretty easily.

I presume your wife's ebike is a yamaha?I'll admit, that confuses me. My Bosch powered bike came with a 15t ring, which I upped to a 17t one. Delimited I can hit up to 60km/h before running out of gear with a basic 10 speed Deore drive train that has a 11t smallest in the back.
On my wifes bike I did a conversion on, the motor came with a 46t front ring, and it's completely different. Based on my experience with my Bosch equipped bike, I expected to have to drop it down to a 36t or something. I didn't have to change a thing, it was perfect for a 32km/h setup.
Must be something about the Bosch motor..

Road bike? With that size tire, fenders, and a rack? Stretching the meaning of the description in my opinion.
