Two more key points: 1) Our heart-in-the-right-place narrator/KZbinr begins by showing an ebike with its battery attached (as is usual) UNDER the rear rack but tells us that rack batteries are placed on ie. on top of the rear rack. So his words don't fit the image shown 2) I waited in vain for him to mention ebike KITS - standard in-wheel kits have major obvious flexibility and transferability advantages that full ebike manufacturers obviously would prefer you not to be thinking about or know about eg. it's easy to buy another competitively-priced battery from any number of generic battery manufacturers and you can likewise easily upgrade to a longer range aka higher energy-density battery. It's easy to transfer a kit to any bicycle(pushbike) with the same wheel size. And ebike kits for the front wheel are much easier to fit, to remove and the bike's front/rear weight balance / distribution is obviously far better - and all the commonly repeated claims that front-wheel drive ebikes/kits are more difficult to control etc are much exaggerated. They're only trickier to handle if you're a crazy off-roader who's forever rapidly twisting and turning in every direction - so that applies to about 1% of ebikers. Paul G

Can you switch batteries on an e-bike, to make it go faster, and ride for longer ??

The video just states the obvious. Doesn't mention for instance that by putting the battety inside the frame it makes it impossible to buy lower-cost replacement batteries from a wide selection of battery sellers as you can with external batteries. And if the in-frame ebike manufacturer disappears 3-4 years from now you'll have to find someone who can replace the individual cells in your old in-frame battery or figure out how to do the job yourself - or give up and buy a new ebike or attach an external battery to your formerly in-frame battery ebike that you originally bought because you thought it looked so sleek, slim and sleek - and just like a non-electric bike. The video uploader needs to seriously up his game... Paul G

Super merci pour toutes ses informations

What I wish I knew before I spend my money. I made a nice setup got stuck with a 13S3P 7.5Ah 😒. thanks for the feedback! it says 30Ah lol it has 2.5Ah cells in 3P 😿

Thanks this video, that app looks like exactly what I am looking for. Can you provide more information on the specic app? I am having trouble finding something comparable to what you showed.

I bought a fabulous e-bike x2 havoc step through last year. After 3 months the brakes started to squeal and screech. I cleaned the brakes and rotors with a degreaser. They were fine for a couple of rides and then they started to squeal again. I changed the brake pads. Same thing. I brought it to the store and Lampro decided to check age again the brake pads and the rotor. Same problem. I was wondering if you experienced the same problem.

J'ai beaucoup aimé cette vidéo qui m'a fait voyager

I have a Scott escale with a cx performance bosch engine, that worked perfect on asphalt, trail, offroad, rain, snow, flud and rivers...for almost an year until on a nice sunny day shutted down and only starts for 2 seconds only from battery than shows on display empty battery and shuts down!!!! It passed over an year and no solutions, and I can't addres to local dealers cause they are like drog deallers, they promiss to take it into custody and look for the errors that a 25-30$ testing it offers but they are not trust worthy!!!! I think I will sell it for parts and never buy another...ever again!!!!😡🤬

Excellent ! Very creative ! 🙏 Thank you for showing your work !

I’m enjoying your straight to the point, informative videos on e-biking, thanks! Since laws vary regarding motor power, in the US, the most prevalent hub motor is 750W, and 500W for mid-drives. While it wouldn’t be apples to apples, I’d be interested in seeing a 750W hub drive on the same hill, but recognize this may not be possible in Canada. One other concern with the mid-drive motor using that much torque is the stress put on the chain. Unless you can do mobile chain repair (a good skill to acquire for long trips, I imagine), this is a consideration. Because hub drives work directly on the wheel, if you have a throttle, you can use it to get to a place where you can get the chain fixed, assuming you’re not riding far from civilization 😊. By the way, if the hub drive won’t get you up some slopes, and you’re concerned about the mid-drive overheating, sounds like you might need a motorcycle for the type of touring you’re interested in. What have you decided? Thanks again!

This is brilliant, just what I needed to know. Thank you so much!

Plus long à installer, moins grand et moins confortable q’un simple tente !

Bonsoir et merci 💓 sympathique Mounette 👍

And now being 2024 with the Gen 4 smart system performance cx 85nm and the brand new update theres nothing better! Bosch has completely transformed its systems today! If you haven't tried a bosch gen 4 smart system seriously get to a demo day you'll no want to give it back! Massive amount of changes have happened in the last 4 years from this video

Massive changes have been made to Bosch systems recently. I wouldn't buy anything else now! The 85Nm torque performance CX Gen 4 on the smart system is incredible. Everything can be adjusted in the app now, including speed, torque, and over-the-air updates and fixes. The new smart system and app are a pleasure to use. It's so user-friendly now with the Kiox 300 and 500 displays, and paired with the new Purion 200, it's a game-changer! You can also set an overrun if you need it, and it can be fully adjusted to the level you need. The new, simple walk-assist mode is a one-button push compared to the older, more complicated system. You definitely made the wrong choice with the low-torque motor and non-smart system. I highly recommend the new system. I won't touch anything else now, as they've pretty much perfected it. The new update in February 2024 made it even better!

Hello Robert. How are you? Just found your trailer. This is the best idea I've seen of bike trailers. It would be fun to have a plan for building one. I wish we had bike trails like the ones in France and Germany. I live in Wyoming. No bears in Europe as far as I know😂

Great build!

Many Bosch CX Gen4 riders are finding their out of warranty £700 motor is junk just because a cheap sensor has failed. Bosch do not provide sensors or PCBs to anyone. Scandalous!!!

Thanks for this very helpful video. We are planning to ride to Ottawa on this trail next month. We'll be on touring bikes. I'd like to avoid the really rough parts of the eastern end. Where would you advise picking up the trail instead of Rigaud? We're fine riding on roadways to get to a decent staring point. Appreciate your advice.

That looks yummy!

Trop mignon!

AWWWWWWWWWWWWW WHO DOESN'T LIKE KITTIES?? 🥰🥰

LOL I wonder if your friend will go bicycling with you

Hello friends cats love milk but it's terrible for them it's too sweet

Nice one.

total , absolut genial ausgedacht. Klein aber insgesamt ein starkes modell. ich persönlich fände es besser das die Räder dran bleiben, man wird ja nicht jünger.

Hello, this is a very nice video you have made. I also have a e-bike that I use for commuting and bicycle touring off-road. I have a small cargo trailer that I can pack all of my camping equipment into. Everything that I need to go out into the Wild and Free Camp next to a lake for instance. One of the unique things about the bicycle trailer is that you can turn it upside down and use it as a table if there is no table available Where You Are camping. I'm not really interested in solar because I usually will bring a reserve battery along with me I also have a battery charger that I can plug in at the cafe along the way or if I happen to be in a campground there is usually a place to be able to plug in the charger. I am going to subscribe to your channel. And I like your glasses you look like a World War II Aviator

Nice idea just like all the other bike campers but it's great to see a really compact one made from corrugated plastic how ever you stated you wanted less set up then a tent but this looks to be more set up then a tent and with added bulk. never the less it's great to see all the different ideas people come up with for bike campers.

Pire encore les velos moustache....ca rouille de partout

Seems like if you want to compare how hot they get you need compare apples-to-apples and try to keep to the same road speed on both.

I like Respected Dear

Buying an ebike online is for people who can fix them. Many, while assembled, should be looked upon as a kit you can build into an ebike. The best you can hope for is that they will replace parts you can prove are bad. Expect that they will want videos or at least pictures. Some may ghost you. If you have the skills you can replace almost anything yourself from amazon. This is why I can buy from the lowest tier. I accept that I may be on my own. Your average Jane or Joe should probably stick to the big brands. Don't assume retailers or big box stores can help.

Well, riding my honda atc 3 wheeler down the road wore the tires fast. You'd get back and could see the difference. I'd say knobbies wear twice as fast on pavement to offroad

This is one of the best bike campers I’ve seen, thank you for sharing with us

Achète un Fat Bike l'ami, tu vas adorer le confort +++

Salutations distinguées des Hautes-Pyrénées

Fat tires are a marketing trend that the public fell for hook , line and sinker. They sell them as they are great for riding on snow , beaches and dunes. The majority don't EVER ride their bikes in winter and have never even seen a sand dune. And if you actually try to, you will quickly learn fat tires suck in snow and sand. They create more friction and actually slow you down and yes, more wear on a tire that costs more money to replace versus a regular 2.24 MTN bike tire. They add more weight too that you have to pedal. They look cool, that's why people get sucked in.

Il est fou acheté une tente ça ira plus vite 😂

Stop whining and enjoy the few weeks you have left 😂

Good Morning Robert. I bought my e-bike last March (2023) and so far I rode over 9,300 km and my tires are still in good condition. They are Kenda Slick tires that came with my e-bike. Thank You for this Video & Always Ride Safe 😎

Thanks for this video - I've been riding on what came with my RAD, even though I almost never leave the pavement. Will research some replacement ideas!

Hello Robert, My fat bike Chao-Ying's tyres (or whatever this miserable product is called) wears off mainly on the side walls. Eventually after riding on the stones and roots side walls rupturing giving way for the tube to bulge out. I have made mistake to buy those again (we are not spoiled by choices in NZ) after riding mainly on the tarmac in Auckland in the past and indeed I got the same wear pattern as yours. Now riding mostly off road in muddy and rocky volcanic terrain of lake Taupo and it wears off differently. I tried to repair the tyre by sewing with the dental floss and rubbing liquid rubber into it - it helped for a while until Juggernauts come from China...I will see with them but indeed you should not have knobby ones riding mainly on paved roads. - your particular wear pattern also suggest that you may keep pressure too high - try maybe lower and it should provide more contact spreading the wear. It may come on the expense of battery life of course but also give some more comfort and puncture protection.

Thanks is working 🎉😂

Its not a cadence sensor its a torque sensor, great video though thankyou

As a relatively new ebike rider who is just beginning to venture out on multi-day tours, this is of great interest to me. I ride a NCM Milano Plus, which has a 48v 768w/h battery. Based on your calculations, in theory I would be able to be confident of a range of about 90km in fairly flat terrain, and about 64km in fairly hilly country. Add a full load out for camping, with about 35kg of luggage, I am thinking that I should be able to confidently plan for 70km and 50km respectfully. Is this a fair estimation?

I will be visiting Lisbon next week. You have inspired me to rent an e-bike. Thank you!

I`m live in Poland. You yelo machine inspiration for my. Good live for you :)
