    Expert Advice on a Used Quest 2.0?

    ...while not the sportiest, I do like this set-up with the rear suspension to use as a commuter / utility bike - possibly even adding an electric motor. I gather that this is a circa 2009 model based on it featuring a 3x9 "SRAM Dual Drive" which was a fairly short-lived product line as I...

    Electric Quest

    Yes, I’m looking for a pedal assist that I can engage to help climb big hills. I don’t need something that powers the bike when I’m not pedaling. I’d just buy a motorcycle if that’s all I wanted. Besides most Rail Trails and other multi use trails (which is my main riding terrain) forbid...

    Then you mean a Pedal Assist sensor (PAS)? You can put a cadence or torque sensor on the bottom bracket (crankset) at the front and use that to tell the motor what you want through a controller. I put a Grin All-Axle on my 2021 Q45 with thru-axles and used a cadence sensor - it worked well...

    Hi. It's promised to another member. If that sale doesn't go through, I will let you know. The electrics are not part of the sale, so I could sell you the bits to make a 12mm Thru-axle Q45 electric - that means the motor in the 26" rear wheel (and the corresponding 26" front wheel), the...

    Edit: Prices and links to all source parts have been added to the bottom of post #1. I got out of shape with the Covid silliness, and now I can't hang with the fast group any more. I'm too impatient and lazy to train hard, so I'm going for electric assist. With knowledgable direction from...

    How long do you think you would like to ride this bike? If you are thinking of a year, then do anything, and then kiss your investment goodbye. If you have a longer time horizon, you might spend your time and money on choices that will serve that. Do you hope to ride the bike longer than 3...

    Cargo bike FWD

    ...tax season and work slows down, will try to tackle this project. Excuse the doodle drawings I've got this mini velo FWD that I've been working on. Will try it on this one. With gas prices going up, maybe an electric motor on one of the cargo wheel and maybe even a back seat on the cargo box.

    I have been out of commission with an injury so haven't posted. The battery cradle mount is installed on the rear swingarm using the rack mounting bosses, and the under seat rack with it. The battery strapped to the rear cargo carrier seriously wagged the tail of the bike in operation, and I...

    Electric Quest

    Hi Folks, I am curious about an electric assist for my Q559 and liked the look of the @Romagjack setup, but have a few considerations to chew on… I only really want assist on ugly hills and inclined starts, so I am looking at the smallest option I can get. It is important to me that there is...

    I recommend that strongly, even if you can't get everything then. According to their blog (https://ebikes.ca/blog.html) the new Baserunners are in, but Phaserunners will not be available before mid 2022. The implication I read from this, combined with my own experience of ordering items and...
