BUILDING AN ELECTRIC BICYCLE AKA PEDELEC

(1/3) > >>

Andre Jute:
At the request of several members of the forum I've described the electrification of my bicycle in six photo essays. So as not to overload the Thorn boards with photographs, I've placed the articles on the server of my publisher, CoolMain Press, where I have several hobby pages, including a bunch for my bikes. My general bicycling page is at http://coolmainpress.com/BICYCLING.html and the electrification articles start at http://coolmainpress.com/BICYCLINGbuildingpedelec1.html

Andre,

You've simply outdone yourself on this one! What a fantastic effort, and a much-needed and most welcome effort that will benefit many.

I truly believe we are on the cusp of an electric/electrified/electronically-assisted cycling revolution, and judging by the way they are taking off in The Netherlands, I feel sure your comprehensive photo-essay will soon become a reference work for others interested in converting their present machines.

A fine piece of work. I took a look through all the pages, and will now return to read it in greater depth.

Thanks, Andre, for making this information available in such clear, easily-understandable form, and for showing us the latest development of your very handsome and remarkable Utopia Kranich.

All the best,

Dan.
