OK, so lets get down to reviewing this thing... 1. Delivery was really quick, within a week to the UK from CZ. TICK 2. Well packaged and protected. TICK 3. Decent tyre with a Schrader valve tube. However, I changed this for the existing tyre and Presta valve tube as that is what I have on all my bikes. 4. Build quality is very good, has a quality feel to it TICK ... but it's heavy! :-) 5. I bought the cheapest V-Brake version but they still send you the unfitted DISK ? BONUS... TICK 6. Lightweight phone holder comes with it too... I (my wife) wont be using it though. Now for negatives, not very big one's but they are still there: 7. The wheel body catches on the 'drive-side' fork by about 3>4 mm and splays them out. Most forks have a small inward step above the dropouts so I'm surprised they have not thought about this... It's not a deal breaker by any means, you put a couple of the supplied washers in there to create a good clamping surface, but I'm an engineer and it just niggled me to 'compromise'. The other side is completely clear as I don't use disk brakes. 8. The other thing they don't mention is the width of the rim... it's wide! The rim is 31mm and a standard rim is about 23mm so if you have v-brakes you will have to reset them. This means that you cant just switch wheels back to normal, you would have to reset the brakes & cables again. Pairing with the Bluetooth app (iMortor3) is a doddle and there are plenty of setting you can change if needed, like the amount of help it gives and how quickly it kicks in etc. The wife will be going out for a ride today to test it out so I'll come back if there are any issues. I don't expect there will be though ;-)

R0bb0 It's the size of your bike wheel. 26 is a mountain bike wheel. 700c is a road bike size wheel

R0bb0 Myreview has been edited :-( 6. It's NOT lightweight!!! 7. The rim is 31mm WIDE so you have to alter V-brakes/cable lengths. 8. The drive side fork catches on the cover, you have to splay it out 3>4mm with washers... see photo.

R0bb0 Ithas a 3 pin connection for a throttle but you need to order it separately. You dont really need the throttle anyway, just switch to 'sport' mode in the app if you want to go faster :-)

R0bb0 Theonly restriction is on the drive side, the fork width needs to be 100mm. It also needs to be parallel for at least 30mm to clear. i.e. the clamping area is 60mm diameter, it then steps back 6>7mm.
