Here is a TEST video of this fantastic bike!!!<\/h3>\n
*** I found another video on my phone!!! ***<\/p>\n
Not long ago, our electric bikes were unfortunately stolen. If you are a Power E-Bike customer, you probably received an email from them asking for help finding the bikes. I would like to use this space to warmly thank the Power E-Bike team for their help.<\/p>\n
Sadly, the electric bikes were never found. Once I had come to terms with the loss, I decided to roll up my sleeves, open my wallet and start a new 29-inch electric bike project.<\/p>\n
For this new bike, I set myself the following very ambitious targets:<\/p>\n
- \n
- Reach a top speed of 60 km\/h!<\/li>\n
- A range of up to 60 km.<\/li>\n
- Power between 1500 and 1800 W.<\/li>\n
- The new electric bike should come with front and rear lights, mudguards for winter and, above all, front and rear disc brakes, because the V-brake pads on my previous bike tended to wear out far too quickly.<\/li>\n
- It should be able to cover long distances on both stony tracks and tarmac.<\/li>\n
- It should accommodate a child seat, adding 15 to 20 kg.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
After much searching online, I finally chose the Cube Travel hybrid bike in 29 inches<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
*** The model I used is no longer available, and the newer bikes now come with road tyres as standard. ***<\/em><\/p>\n

<\/p>\nin 28 inches ….<\/strong> 28 inches on a 29-inch bike???? Yes… when sellers describe a bike as 29 inches, this ultimately refers to the overall size of the wheel with its tyre.<\/strong><\/p>\n
Having already received the motor kit, I was able to fit one of the tyres I had chosen to replace the original ones, which the manufacturer described as<\/p>\n
Schwalbe Smart Sam, Active 29 inches x2.25<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n
new tyre SCHWALBE Super Moto Evo \u2014 29-inch MTB tyre x 2,35″
