I would actually like to know those data. Shimano knows. But they do not release it from their STEPS black box
Well. Yeah. And battery efficiency Einstein
It can be useful in trying to figure out what gear / effort you want to be doing for max efficiency. Although TBH, cadence seems to work better for me.
But why would you need a bolt on power meter on an Ebike? They already have torque sensors to determine how much power to send to the motor.
I didn't mention bolting on anything.
As you've realised all decent mid drive motors already have the relevant sensors to give power data. To what accuracy will depend on the motor. And availability of that data down is to the manufacturer.
there's nothing radder than justifying your purchase of an ebike to the masses by claiming you don't really use it, and instead just use it as a much heavier than necessary pedal bike.
Like that tacoma I got that I push to work....
From the back saddle I presume...
are you attacking my e-cargo bike purchase
I used it to pick up Raising Cane's the other day. and it actually was great for that.
I have to admit the first time I saw a Bakfiets I thought it was a porta-coffin kind of bike. Like you would crash, and the coffin would already be there for you to be buried in it.
I test rode one of those. Handling was too weird. Mine is a conventional longtail instead.
you should be banished from the DH forum for thisI test rode one of those. Handling was too weird. Mine is a conventional longtail instead.
if i had the coin i‘d be rocking one of those bad boys:
Load4 60 – Höchste Fahrdynamik, keine Kompromisse | Riese & Müller
Premium-Cargo-Bike mit perfektem Handling und tiefem Schwerpunkt. Mit Control Technology für absoluten Fahrkomfort.
"The masses"?
I've never needed to justify any purchase with anyone I actually know. Nevermind 12 internet forum users.
Ps. I've no idea what a tacoma is

Pull any sweet wheelies?
I serviced a fleet of 10 of those on Tuesday for a Scottish Gov funded initiative. (in other words a complete waste of public money)if i had the coin i‘d be rocking one of those bad boys:

They're def not a thing I'd personally ever want to live with
I'd prefer a Hilux over a Taco TuRD Brodozer, but americans demand extra tall and long hoods and other aesthetic modifications. The long and tall hood looks extra tough when combined with a 4' bed to show off that you don't actually do any work with the truck, and that extra 18" of empty space in front of the radiator is key for intimidating folks when stuck in traffic!
Ah. Thanks.
Other than dodging badly driven ones I don't tend to pay a lot of attention to cars.
But do remember this...
...and sneering at folk passing them while pushing a chain around the cranks of a bicycle. Even more so if it has a tiny little 250w motor?
gotcha
Its a small pickup truck that americans buy to pickup ebikes in the woods when the batteries die

you should see all the tailgate decorations we have for themfair enough
Its a sign of our freedom and individuality
The fact that when a DH bike uses 4" of its 8" the seat still gets shredded by the rear wheel. To stop this you need a full length seat post and can only ride seated.
Oh, and ad aluminum nips too
How fucking short are your legs?
it's the official mountain bike rig in the shore to sky region. fairly comical how ubiquitous these things are here.
