yes, that's a good point, I definitely need some when I go 72Volts.

Hi -

Can you tell me how much cost the complete Riese und Müller Intercontinental (black) bicycle? It look very attractive and
perfect for ebike setup. I looked around the USA seems none have Riese und Müller Intercontinental bike sale.

Awesome video and awesome build! I love ebike tourers! This is perfect though. Way more clean than my heavy monster. lovit.

Meanwhile hitting 6000 km mark with this bike and still everything cool. Except that i was hit by a car recently, even though it was not my fault, it has scared the crap out of me. Luckily I got a way with some road burn and a broken front wheel.

Beautiful bike, what sort of range do you get out of this combo? At what speed?

Would you recommend the 5303, over say a 500W geared MAC at 48V?

I have a friend with a 500W MAC with 48v 15ah of Ping Power and it's good for 50 odd km/h also.

Is the drag on the 5303 noticable when you're off the juice?

Sorry for so many questions

Very clean and functional. I like !

After a few thousand km and salty roads its time for a new wheel

salt water pulls spokes

outch, rim is cracked, didn't notice that

lookin' shiny

This is the first time I'm seeing this frame and I'm amazed. How come no company has one like this in the US.

I know I'm just reiterating what was previously posted a few years ago by other members, but I mean this is a nearly perfect commuter ebike frame! Full suspension and an integrated rack. Going to change my shorts...

I don't know, maybe because it's expensive. the bike gets quite tail heavy if you use lots of batteries and rear hub. in the other hand these Panniers are the perfect camouflage, if you know what I mean. they don't even look at me. all through the frame did a good job so far.

 

[vodka]

sorry for the late reply

At what speed?

~56 kmh now using a 5304 for more torque

Would you recommend the 5303, over say a 500W geared MAC at 48V?

never tried a geared motor but I don't think they're very durable. and they make a lot of noise.
the new clytes are less heavy anyway

Is the drag on the 5303 noticable when you're off the juice?

the drag is immense.

I like those Cateye Universal Clamps you used on the fork to support the fenders. Going to put them on my bike! (Yay no more zip ties!)
