    White Mountain Double Century and Final Race for the CA Triple Crown Stage Race

    Old record was 10:53 I set it at 10:41 with with slightly revised course being 4 miles longer and a few thousand feet more climbing. I guess one of the riders asked the sag driver how can a recumbent can climb so damn fast and his response made me laugh "because the rider is stronger then all...

    Bruce scores 2 Cruzbikes

    ...Or replace the existing BB and crank, with a Bafang BBS-01 or 02, and use it for bitumen hill climbs. Using the gears allows the electric motor to stay near its most efficient motor speed, and extends the range dramatically (2 X) if any hills greater then 2% are ridden. Also there is no 20+...

    Vendetta V20 Build diary 2016

    And that's a low estimate by at least 489.....I'm guessing the e-tap are pretty strong, and I forgot the C2032 in the speed sensors. Garmin Remote, and the Remote for the head lights. So it's probably closing in on 29000mAH.... Fortunately there are a few bikes in the garage with Zero mAH...

    Riding on dirt roads

    A friend called and asked if I wanted to go on a ride with him. I used my Sofrider and my friend has an upright with an electric motor in the front wheel. Much of the riding was on dirt roads. Some of the hills were very steep so I had to walk some of the hills. Walking up a hill I pasted...

    electric assist

    I have looked on the Internet and can not find ANY actual users reviews of the Electron Wheel, max speed 20 mph, with 24V 10.7 Ahr (256 Wh) battery At 20 lbs (9.0 kgs) for the wheel, you will definitely need an air shock (Manitou Radium R 165 mm compressed, 38 mm movement) for the rear...

    electric assist

    If you want the Electric drive to assist in hills, I would ONLY go with a bottom bracket motor like the Bafang BBS-01 350W 36V, 3.8 kg, from EM3Ev of Hong Kong, so it uses your rear cluster to give 15% gradeability, WHILE still operating in its max power (66 crank rpm) to Max efficiency (78...

    Rohloff SPEEDHUB Silvio S30 v2.2 Build

    Thank you, thank you. With a Gaadi tube I am now able to change a tube without removing the wheel from the hub. Removing a Rohloff front wheel may be impossible on the road. English speakers do a Google search for Gaadi Tubes. Update: Gaadi tubes work well. Front tube change is quick. No...

    Rohloff SPEEDHUB Silvio S30 v2.2 Build

    What size rims and tires do you use on your beautiful bike ? Rohloff hub in frontwheel : I can see your point and the consequences when getting a flat tire , so maybe this tube solution could help out ? http://www.gaadi.de I tried the 26 " version with a Presta air valve on my home made...

    Electric Quest

    So you could do that. The change would require you to get the wheels redone as 451 or better yet 406's so you could get big apples etc. Then you'd swap out the front chain stay for the shorter version, cruzbike should have them and if they don't I have two in the parts bin. Then Poof it fits in...

    Electric Quest

    Having enjoyed my electric Sofrider so much over the last 1.5 years, I wanted another so both me and my partner could ride assisted and in laid back fashion. I also wanted to try out bringing an electric bike with me on airplane trips, but the 26" wheels may make this impractical. I've yet to...

    Kaboom!

    ...off of me and then try to sprint from behind? Was he going to blow right past me and make me chase him down? Did he have a hidden electric motor in the frame? I was so surprised that I just had to wait and see. So he closed in on me, rode parallel to me, and then (wait for it...) Kaboom...

    Drill and Build Ok it was time do the build out. Working off of what Steve and Buddy did I achieved a pretty nice result. This is an 11speed Ultegra setup; but I keep my SRAM Crank Set and Rotor Q-Rings. I went with an all internal cabling setup the same as what Buddy did. First...

The electric motor is on the front wheel, with the battery just behind the lower part of the seat back. The 'top box' is still in place (just out of view in the photo...

    Sofrider as a Hybrid-Electric HPV in the Making

    Hi TH, Even if you only use Hi TH, Even if you only use the electric motor and never pedal the bike, it is a huge improvement over using a car. I have a friend of mine who lives where it is extremely hilly. If it wasn't for his electric bike, he wouldn't be able to get out and ride...

    another electric option

    e-Cruzbike We have a Sofrider here in NC with a very heavy battery and hub motor on the rear wheel. It's very fun to ride, but not so fun to load in the car. Adding electric assist to make a FWD bike "all-wheel-drive" is very tempting. All recumbents can be tricky getting started from a stop...

    another electric option

    ...the best forum for this, but I'd most likely be electrifying a Softrider, so here goes. A very different and interesting looking electric motor option. Still in development, so we'll have to see if/how it works. 600 Watts peak sounds a lot to get through the small contact area. Hmmmmm...
