  • Love that bike. Any details of the electrification process? Trying to read up on these things, dipped my toe at the endless sphere forum but got scared and backed out again.

  • I gave it to the folks at Binova and they did it for me. So basically i have no clue and that is scareing me aswell.
    I got the system for free and it works quite ok but I am thinking about converting it back to muscular power from time to time. To be independent from electricity and get back a normal Q-factor. I feel like a duck on it now. Also that big lump of plastic looks way crappier than some nice classic silver mountain bike cranks.
    They are developing a smallish motor for the back hub right now, hopefully i can get one to test because that seems like the sleekest solution to me.

  • motor for the back hub

    Friend had the bionix rear hub motor, it broke down and was replaced under warranty three times, fourth time they cut him off. Made me wary of hub motors. I'm sure your source makes a completely different product but anyway. Would be nice though as it seems so much cheaper than a mid engine!
