It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

For me I've been riding my new mten5 around a lot. It gets about 20 miles of range and will happily cruise at 20mph (max is somewhere over 30).

I also have an ebike, escooter, and 3 other electric unicycles (EUCs) but this little ripper has been my favorite this week.

It’s a fully 3D printed titanium bike unlike anything else in the word. Naturally we interviewed the designer and got details.

Still ridiculously expensive IMO but if anyone was looking to pick one up this might save you some money.

Hello!

I got a BTWIN RockRider 540 some years ago and use it for some light trails, but nowadays mostly just roads. My region is very hilly and has multiple >10º hills, which are perfectly fine for cars, but not really for bikes 😅

Since I'd like to start doing more things in the city center (which is itself also on the hilly side), I was considering either getting an e-bike or converting mine. I'm more inclined towards the latter option, since I really don't need another bike (already have an extra all-terrain bike for trails and a vintage road bike), it would just be a waste of materials and, from what I understand, money. I'm really not sure where to start looking for appropriate conversion kits, so thought to ask here :)
My budget is flexible, but I'd like to keep it under 200€.

Any comments are appreciated!
