    If you're thinking about running batteries in parallel, I recommend the fbc battery combiner. Battery combiners seem to be hit or miss if it's not from a reputable source.

    • @TheBasementGardener
      @TheBasementGardener  9 дней назад +1

      It's about 75-80lbs with the battery. It's not light by any description. If you're in shape you'll manage, but definitely not something you'd wanna have to do say in a 3 story walkup apt or the like .

      No. I wouldn't. Get something brake pads are available for. This thing eats them and they are impossible to find.

    about how many kilometers would it run full battery in summer?

    • @TheBasementGardener
      @TheBasementGardener  3 месяца назад +1

      About 25 to 30km on a flat bike path under pure electric. Obviously a bit farther with the use of pedals, but you really wouldn't want to pedal this too far .

    The reason your front brakes are screaming is not a dirty rotor you just need new brake pads

      Nope. It's dirt. Pads are new...just like the rest of the bike. Cleaned em...no more noise.

      yes. you could for instance leave the bike in a garage and take the battery indoors with you to charge. its made that way.

    is this considered a class 1, 2 or 3 ebike? I see other reviews of this thing going 31mph, which would be in the class 3 category.

      @@TheBasementGardener Found this information...The Ridstar Q20 electric bike is considered a Class 2 e-bike:
      Class 2: E-bikes with a throttle and a maximum speed of 20 miles per hour
      Here are some other e-bike classes:
      Class 1
      E-bikes with pedal-assist only, no throttle, and a maximum speed of 20 miles per hour
      Class 3
      E-bikes with pedal-assist only, no throttle, and a maximum speed of 28 miles per hour
      Class 4
      E-bikes with motors exceeding 750W and a maximum speed of over 28 miles per hour. They are treated as motorized vehicles and require licensing and insurance.
      But these things have 1000W and RUclipsrs show they go 31mph
      That put’s them into class 4 territory
      . Wonder what happens when someone on one of these causes an accident and proves they were going over 28mph.
      Legally, they would be in the “insured” requirement category.
      Seems a lawsuit in waiting to me. I'm struggling on whether this thing is appropriate for my 15 year old son. I'm leaning towards no and wonder what others think.

    It’s a dope bike, might try and get one soon. Just worried about cops in ottawa/quebec, because the law is actually pretty clear for e-bikes : 500w max and 32kmh max (dumb af). But good to know they don’t bother you 👍 thanks for the review!
