I put a drop bar on, I'm looking to change out my brakes and shifters now to the standard road bike Style. I also install the planetary gear set on the back to fool the magnetic speed sensor. Just put it on today and gave it a quick test, it boosts me now well past 34 miles an hour. Was able to...

If I upgrade the motor on My Vado, I'll have a spare 1.2 T Brose. Maybe I could take out the crank of the Giant and put that in its place

I'm looking for options for a small motor on my mountain bike, it is a Giant Talon. I don't need a lot of power but I would like a little something because I'm really used to having a motor on my street bike now and bikjng without a motor just feels weird. I'm looking for something, maybe a...

I'd much prefer to eke out a few more miles an hour on this one then completely start over on a DIY.

I'm trying to find that product but I don't know where it is anymore. It was something three. He had YouTube videos on install, some German guy that did all the work on it. It was just a planetary gear set with a magnet on it to make the bike think it was going slower by changing the periodicity...

Cost isn't a major issue, I just need to know what's out there

Going off the speedo on the bike itself which seems to be decently accurate. I can do about 28 to 31 miles an hour on the flat in these areas oh, I would like some more assistance, doesn't need to be maxed out power but just a little bit to help me get up to like 36 on the flat. The up hills I...

It's not a bad idea, would certainly help with downhill. I'd like to get better uphill though, I moved to a new city which is why I bought this thing, each day I change elevation by about 1300 ft going to and from work and just around town. We don't have bike Lanes here so I'd like to be closer...

I'd like to mod my Vado 4.0 to increase its top speed, for how long it helps for What do you guys recommend?
