Shebeen Posted October 4, 2017 Share I really think this is what is going to make Ebikes more widespread. http://www.srsuntour-cycling.com/e-bike/ats-front-motor-system/ It's a front wheel hub motor, so you could very basically have a simple swap out system to have a normal and Ebike config. there are things to iron out, but i see this one having potential. plus there are definite benefits to 2WDhttp://www.srsuntour-cycling.com/fileadmin/_processed_/csm_fm-gruppe_cc9c84e52f.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F0rest Posted October 4, 2017 Share The mountain is the only place an ebike belongs.Straight to the berg with a hiking bag and the location of a dry cave, you wouldn't see me for days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gummibear Posted October 10, 2017 Share Doing a 60km ride on Sunday and I see that Ebikes will be allowed on the 15km and 28km routes. There’s no prize money or medals involved with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
