Bollocks to your excuses. I have scoliosis, stenosis, gout and countless other conditions. Best thing for any joint pain is to keep moving n drink lots of beer.

How much does that set up cost?Beaker wrote: ↑Wed Jul 10, 2019 3:04 pmRainMan wrote: ↑Wed Jul 10, 2019 12:13 pm@ Beaker, I have an electric mountain bike back home, a good thing but the battery life is about 6 hours with pedal assist, with the extra weight of a cyclo it would drain quickly. You can buy the power kits&battery that bolt on the back wheel but maybe too under-powered and pain/expense to set up on a cyclo.

This is the bike I ride here in the KOW 1000w 48v does 47km/h without pedaling on the flat.
The technology has really changed in the last few years much more powerful motors , 3000-5000w is common, and the battery can be as big as you have room for.
There would be no problem powering a cyclo .
I would use a bottom bracket motor and with a geared rear wheel or double direct drive motors on the front wheels,
There's a hill between my faaarm and the pub which I think even 'orace would balk at on a regular basis and sometimes the publican contrives to remove the keys of my marvellousy powered Mercedes from me.
That little battery thing might be the just the ticket.

I also believe that those batteries are quite heavy and the power produced is not similar to an engine and not really enough to go up steep climbs. Hence their popularity in the relatively flat lands of Cambodia n the Mekong Delta.

For using in an area with hills or mountains you want to use what's called a bottom bracket motor. It allows the motor to run and utilize the rear derailleur and gears and they have much more power. Lots of people use them for off-road mountain bikes or even 2 wheel drive bikes that can climb up anything or reach speeds 100km/h+ and are much lighter than motorcycles

^^ Gay.
I am now in the Sierra Nevada after six months cycling the Andes, ( which did defeat me I must admit) and there ain't no one on an ebike here as there wasn't there, and every climb is ten per cent at least with loads of 15 and 20%.
Ebikes are for school children and fat lazy fuckers, simple.

I agree with horace. Why an electric bike? Bicycle or moto.
You can buy a cheap moto for under $300 here, and reasonable bicycle for under $200, electric bikes are more, afaik.

E bikes are not going away. All the big brands have invested in models with high quality motors and components that can be ridden hard. Canyon for example:
Personally I prefer my own pedal power, but I certainly see the attraction.

one of those cyclos would make a good ebike conversion 48 volt and almost unlimited space for a battery,which would give you quite some range.

Electric scooters have proliferated in Western cities, buzzing down bike lines and on sidewalks. I mean scooter in the sense of something you stand on; not a moto. I have to admit, I was impressed with the speed I saw someone zooming up a hill at. I'm shocked there aren't more accidents with them though.
I don’t see the connection LL, apart from they are talking about batteries?
Anyhoo. All Mercedes fobs have a physical key that pops out the fob for that exact reason.
Not sure why people go to extreme lengths to create a superfluous video!
pew, pew, pew, pew!
