Purpose of this blog

The purpose of this blog is to learn more about electric bikes. Partly to learn myself more and hopefully be able to learn you something.

I have had a electric front wheel kit for a number of years (about 10 years), but barely used it, for a while I wanted to make my own electric construction for the drive, but I never got that project ready. Meanwhile the lead batteries fairly quickly died out.

I´m slowly planning to order a new battery and check if the electric motor and the electronics still work.

In this blog I will write about electric bikes that I find interesting. Everything from batteries to electric motors.

I will also practice my English, bear with me, I´m from Sweden.

Here are some pictures of my Miyata Trailrunner and electric hub engine.
