    Efficiency?

    Hm, I search optimal efficiency, and find 420 results Probably should smoke more

    Torque assist or using throttle, which is more efficient?

    Probably, for me requiring to have tumb throttle is not worth it Although I am kind talking about same thing with throttle for amount extra watts. Those round shifters that you twist and turn. That way you dont have to actually hold down the throttle. And the motor stops when you stop pedaling

    Torque assist or using throttle, which is more efficient?

    Interesting, well you can set your torque sensor to certain parameters, so motor kicks in when you need it. For example starting from stop, or on other end using it at top speed. So it works automatic how you want it, and hand throttle is manual control over that. Other then not having to use...

    80 new EV models from VW by 2025 !

    Yah, we can even go step further and say that electric bikes alone, wont solve those transportation problems. My father rode his normal bike to work his whole life, anyway he also has a gas moped that he rode instead on nice sunny days. Once I got interested in electric bikes, trying to...

    80 new EV models from VW by 2025 !

    This is what wikipedia has to say "Bark beetles play an important role in forest ecology, for example by creating complex early successional forest.[2] In undisturbed forests, bark beetles serve the purpose of hastening the recycling and decomposition of dead and dying wood and renewing the...

    80 new EV models from VW by 2025 !

    Cant argue your logic, just saying I get enough wood from my propery sustainably to do something with it. There can only be that many wooden spoons you know, so I choose to burn it to keep myself warm. For example, there are bugs that attack old timber laying around in forests that has to be...

    80 new EV models from VW by 2025 !

    I am not exactly digging up wood, have small orchard and I can get enough wood to burn during winter. Ofcourse it isnt enough to keep the house warm at all times, but I get enough to fire up the fireplace from time to time to set the mood. And thats sustainable. Its same with forests, you can...

    Wanted:Ebike that looks like a Motorcycle

    Awesome, somehow goes hand in hand with what users were argueing in 2011... If it goes 45kmh why wouldnt be the same as Ebike? Difference is, you can indeed trick people believing you are riding something much less powerfull.. But I dont care how it looks, aslong as I can pedal it for...

    Best double suspension base for XC in a bafang

    Hi, looking for the same thing. This is not full suspension, but maybe you will be able to enjoy the design https://www.klever-mobility.com/klever-e-bikes/

    Wanted:Ebike that looks like a Motorcycle

    I just get the sense this forum is so much about DIY wich I love. But you guys pushed this ebike thing so much into mainstream, somepeople eventually will make money from it. Its past keeping this ebike thing on the downlow, surerly best thing now is to produce lots of bikes at current...

    Wanted:Ebike that looks like a Motorcycle

    Digging this up, blast from the past. How does everyone feel about proper looking electric bike, that can look like hulk hogan if u wish. Street legal, possibly autobahn speeds

    Europe/ 90km street legal electric bicycle

    And now this design can be made so much better, with torque sensing, crusie controling adapters and whatnot

    Europe/ 90km street legal electric bicycle

    This mopeds used to be made here in Slovenia,.. maybe mid drives ARE the future, and its just about converting this design to electrix. I dunno, so confused

    Europe/ 90km street legal electric bicycle

    I would like to build street bike, triangle rear, possibly rear shock, rear hub electric bicycle. Havent seen any good open source designs yet. How does one go about building this type of bike. Surely there are some designs out there with funnily small battery, but I want to be able to fit my...

    PAS design/ pedelecs design / control question

    Dude, am just claiming its fun for me, and can be made even better, So thats all, just excited for the possibilities Like Amberwold said, controller with cruise control, paired with torque sensor, could be awesome fun

    Electronic brake lever

    Thank you both. Amazing, and here I was thinking I have an original idea. But hey as long as its out there. Ive seen big shift to ebikes with mid motor drive tho. Dunno, for me braking alone has to be big advantage of rear hubs.

    Electronic brake lever

    Hi, so I figure one could completely replace rear disc brake with nice electronic brake lever. Where it would be machined so well that you could feel first click when you cut the power to the motor, then after pressure would increase exponentially to provide regen or motor breaking. Does...

    PAS design/ pedelecs design / control question

    Thinking abojt my idea, first think one would need is proper electric switch to cut the power on the brake lever, and maybe some progressive regen braking when further squeezed

    PAS design/ pedelecs design / control question

    Its fun. I would like to have system working almost somewhat like downhill biking. I figure it would be great fun for urban biking. So you would pedal pedal and somehow wound up the throttle, so it would continue to provide power even when you stop pedaling for a while. Could also work for...

    ebike Battery sellers

    It is mentioned in some beginners post to include your location in profile to make it easier for rest to help you. Here in Europe I consider Varta to be reputable battery maker, and I know they used to make batteries for Ebikes, but dont anymore. Possibly they made deal with some company, to...

    List of available e-bike frame kits/DIY frame kits

    Great list. Any newcomers? What would be best choice for road/touring ebike. So as road happy/efficient as possible Edit: I guess its ok if its full suspension, just want to be able to convert it best, to agressive road bike stance

    torque sensors

    Yeah its interesting, even with torque sensor I need some button or throttle to add extra power when needed. I my case its a +- button to change from 70% extra effort from motor to 150% added power from motor. But I really like it when more or less crusing, so you dont need to hold the...

    torque sensors

    I am sure alot of people do. I have Bionx kit which has pre-fitted fitted some sort of torque sensor But yeah, I find this technology amazing, love how you then use the pedals as throttle I use gears, 2 sprockets front and 9 in back. Most times on road (when not on pedestrian zones etc) I use...
