Product Description

Banner Moscow Plus Ebike

NCM Moscow Plus

In a nutshell – This bike is awesome! We kept everything people loved about the highly popular Moscow, and then built an improved and robust Moscow Plus. Most of all, we wanted to offer you a performance packed cycling machine at an unbeatable value.

We started with the suspension fork and threw in a customizable 100mm Suntour XCM with preload adjustment and a lock-out option for those steep climbs. But we didn’t stop there because with greater travel comes greater stopping power. The Moscow Plus was also given bigger 180mm rotors and a Tektro hydraulic brakeset to make sure you can stop quickly and smoothly.

The 24 speed Shimano drivetrain will give you plenty of range to tackle steep hills and build up speed in flat runs while shifting smoothly. Your shifting system is pretty much bomb proof. But wait, there’s more. We put even more juice into your battery pack for a total of 768wh and we’ve upgraded the display so you have more options, features, and information at the tip of your fingers. Our LCD display is now capable of separating from the button controls for better cockpit design options.

Don’t get us wrong, the Moscow is already a high performer, but if you feel like you need a little PLUS in your life, our NCM Moscow Plus has more than enough to satisfy even the hard-core trail blazers.

NCM Moscow Plus QC

Quality Inspection & Final Adjustment

When you are happy, we are happy.

In order to ensure your peace of mind and adhere to our high-quality standards, our bicycles are subjected to a functional test at the factory level.

To make things easier for you, our bikes are only delivered pre-assembled and after following a few simple steps it should take you between 30-40 minutes to assemble the bike. Tools required included.
We highly recommend a fine adjustment and inspection by a third party, support your local bike shop and have them inspect and give your new whip a good tune-up Any costs incurred for this cannot be covered by us.
Lastly, and before riding, please check that all screws are properly torqued for strength and integrity. Carry out a fine adjustment of the gears and brakes. Check the tire pressure (flats are fun…said no one ever), and ALWAYS wear protective gear.
Depending on the bicycle model, the final assembly and inspection of the components should take between 40 and 90 minutes.

Essential Accessories For All New E-Bike Owners

E BIKES, E-BIKE INFO, GENERAL INFORMATION
Electric Bike using lights at night

To complete that electric bike, you’re going to need the best electric bike accessories. Do you need some useful extras to take your electric bike to the next level, or to finish off the perfect build?

We have you covered. Here we have 10 of the most useful accessories you’ll need for your electric bike.

Helmet

Giro Fixture Bike Helmet with MIPS

This is more of a courtesy accessory. If you don’t already have a helmet, stop reading and get one right now. You have such a wide range to choose from. From expensive helmets such as the Bell Super 3 or the Smith Optics Overtake. All the way down to the ‘El Cheapo helmets like the Schwinn Thrasher and Kingbike Helmet.

These will do the job, but keep in mind that the more expensive they are, the better quality they are. Which translates to how well it protects your noodle in a fall! (Up to a point the more expensive ones are better. After a certain price range you’re just paying for fanciness, like a Custom Predator Helmet).

Search around to find a helmet that you both enjoy looking at, and that fits well. It’s important to also consider getting a safety rated motorcycle helmet if you plan on going fast on the road. Helmets like the Fuel Helmets HH Series are more rugged than a bike helmet and are held to the Department of Transport standards.

These are good for more safety, but without a full face motorcycle helmet. If you’re after more safety, you could consider getting a full face helmet like the ILM Motorcycle Helmet.

Lights

If you’ve ever driven a car past a bike riding at night with no lights, you’ll know why you need lights. E-bikes are invisible at night time. You’ll be hit in a matter of minutes if you go riding at night.

LE LED Bike Light, Bicycle Rear Light, 3 Lighting Modes, Clip On Cycling Taillight, Batteries Included

Unless of course, you get yourself some awesome lights to make you glow! Depending on your country or state, you may need to have active or passive lights on your e-bike. Passive lights are also known as reflectors.

These are mostly installed when the bike is manufactured. Often reflectors are built into pedals too. So if you buy new pedals you’ll still have passive lights. Active bike lighting is what you would normally think of when someone says bike lighting.

It’s best to have a white light on the front, and red flashing lights on the back. The front light allows you to be easily seen when you’re coming towards other motorists. It helps with assisting your vision also.

You can get rechargeable lights that clip to your handlebars and seat post. Lights such as the Blitzu Gator Rechargeable Bike Light or the Ticoze Bike Light Set.

However some would argue (myself included!) that it’s much easier (and way, way cooler) to install custom lighting that runs from your main e-bike battery. This means you’ll never run out of juice (assuming you manage your main battery life well) for your lights when you least expect it.

Something like the 20W Motorbike LED would certainly do the trick! For the back, just get a Rear Red LED and you’re sorted! Pair those with some cable and a switch for the handlebars, and set it all up together, and bam!

Easy light setup. You’re safe, happy and can see the road ahead! Be careful what voltage your lights are rated for! Many will only work at 12V.

If you have a fully charged 48V battery, it will put out 54.6V. A fully charged 52V battery will output 58.8V! So either get yourself some lights that can handle up to 60V, or get a DC-DC converter to take your high battery voltage down to 12V.

Bike Locks

You need ebike security. You’ve just created or bought a masterpiece of engineering. Worth a few thousand, and now you need to secure it. Getting a bike lock will increase the chances that a thief will ignore your electric bicycle and move along to something easier.

Bells

E Bike Bells

Being courteous is a big part of being an e-biker. You’re faster than most cyclists and certainly faster than pedestrians. So you’ll need to warn them of your looming, speeding presence.

So they can act accordingly. Nothing says “Hi buddy, I see you’re ahead of me and I don’t want to run you down so could you please move out of my way so I can pass by and we can carry on our days just as great, if not better than, before” better than a short ring of a friendly bell. Screaming and yelling “GET OUT OF MY WAY” isn’t quite as nice. So I generally don’t do it. Bells are inexpensive and another great way to add some personal touches to your e-bike.

From classic bells to nice looking bells, all the way to oddly designed bells, super load electronic bells and weird bells, you really have a huge selection. Get one to suit you and your e-bike. From a pedestrian and biker, thanks for getting a bell instead of yelling at me!

Mirrors

If you’re going to be commuting with your e-bike, there’s nothing better than having eyes in the back of your head. But you don’t need to have another set of eyes, you can simply get a mirror! Handlebar mirrors are fantastic to put on your ebike to keep an eye on the traffic behind you. Are they sneaking up behind you?

E Bike Mirrors

Drifting into your lane? Or not paying attention at all? You can see all this and more with a bike mirror. You can get them as convex bar mirrors or even larger motorcycle-ish mirrors. Alternatively, you can have bar-end mirrors. Or even crazy mirrors that attach to your eyeglasses?!? If you have a mirror, you’re infinitely better off than the other biker on the road that does not. Do yourself a favour and grab one while you can!

Mud Guards

Get some mud guards. They’re also great if you want to take your ebike offroad too! Stones in your face are not fun. You can go cheap, which will do the job. But not very stylishly. Or you can go nice with these FJQXZ Mudguards. Really anything will do, and it’s just down to personal taste! Get crazy, or stay super stealth. I prefer stealthy mud guards!

Hand Grips, Seats, Pedals

TC-Motor Racing Carburetor Carb Blue Air Filter Throttle Handle Grips Cable Switch Kit For 2 Stroke 50cc 60cc 80cc Gas Motorized Bicycle

There’s only 3 parts of the e-bike you touch at all times. The hand grips, the seat and the pedals. So why settle for anything less than absolute luxury? If you’re going off on long rides you don’t want a sore hand or bottom! Nor do you want your feet getting achy.

The best decision you can make for your e-bike build is to replace the seat and grips. Be wise about what you order though. Please don’t use just any grip, you’ll regret it. Your hands will not forgive you.

Ergonomic grips are way better! Or even some nice BMX grips. Next you’ll want a nice place to sit down on. There’s two ways about this. You can upgrade your seat post or your saddle. Or both!

Upgrading your seat post to include suspension will soften the ride immensely. This will make it feel as if you’re gliding through the air! The Suntour SP12-NCX or the Cane Creek 3G Thudbuster are the upper end of seat posts. These will feel silky smooth.

If you just want to experience seat post suspension, you could opt for something slightly cheaper such as the Diamondback Suspension Seatpost. No frills, but should give you a good intro to world of suspension seat posts! Lastly you can replace your saddle! The actual bit that you sit on.

If you want high end, you can get the Ergon SME3 or a Seatylock! But you could just as easily get a reasonably priced, comfortable looking seat such as the Daway (or this Daway or Cloud-9. Slapping on a nice soft gel cover and being on your merry way! Keep in mind though, if you go high end saddle, you’ll never go back! They’re just so darn good.

Baskets

Nothing separates a serious commuter from casual weekend rider like having cargo baskets. It gives you a place to hold your helmet, bicycle lock, and gloves…along with sunglasses and possibly a dozen other personal items that make your rides easier, safer, and more convenient.

Having a front basket may not be macho (I’m a hairy old guy), but it puts your most often-used items in easy reach when you are sitting on your e-bike, and it also keeps them within eye-view when riding. Rear cargo baskets (I’ve heard them called “panniers”) should not extend any more forward than the rear-wheels’ axle (on a conventional frame), because your heel would keep bumping into it when you pedal.

Of course, if you have a longtail cargo bike, that is not an issue. If you are riding your e-bike to work, then you definitely need a place to store a few wrenches, a spare tube, and a CO2 canister…for those times when you get a flat tire. Whether your baskets are “affordable” or fancy, large or small…they are an incredibly useful addition to any e-bike.

Fenders

Fenders are one of the items that are rarely found on entry-level e-bikes. Customers are always price-sensitive, and deleting the fenders is one way to keep the purchase price down on an e-bike that might still be over $2000.

However, if a street e-bike turns into something that you end up using frequently, you will soon find that adding fenders can save you from getting splashed with mud and water.

Digital Multi meter

Not always a first thought of an accessory for your e-bike, but I can assure you it’s worth it. If you’re troubleshooting your build or creating a fancy lighting circuit for your e-bike, a digital multi meter will be invaluable.

It can help you check your voltages or check continuity of cables to test if they’re broken. There’s nothing worse than frying your electronics because you thought the cable you were using was 12V instead of 48V.

New York City Creates Space For E-Bikes

E BIKES, E-BIKE INFO, GENERAL INFORMATION
new york city e bike

On any given afternoon in the city of New York, Brooklyn, or Queens, a pedestrian must come across within seconds, an e-bike.

The battery boosted bicycles are very famous among the 50,000-plus transport cyclists registered in the Big apple metropolis.

New York E Bikes

You’d find them zipping down streets and avenues carrying take-out dishes, laundry, documents, booze, and anything else the people of New York care to order online. Practically overnight, the city has grown to become a safe haven for them.

The wait will soon be over, some electric bikes will be officially legal in New York City starting next month.

The Department of Transportation published a new rule Thursday clarifying the legality of so-called pedal-assist bikes, which give riders a motorized boost while still requiring them to use their legs.

City officials announced the planned rule change in April amid a police crackdown on electric bikes. Faster throttle-powered bikes are still illegal to use, and riding one can come with a fine of up to $500 and possible seizure of the bike.

“For now, we believe that this new rule will help us join other world cities opening the door to an increasingly popular, safe and low-emission mode of travel that helps cyclists climb hills and travel longer distances,” Transportation Commissioner Polly Trottenberg said in a statement.

The new rule, which takes effect July 28, legalizes electric bikes, also known as e-bikes, with motors that turn on only when the cyclist is pedaling and turn off when the speed hits 20 MPH.

Pedal-assist bikes must bear a label showing their maximum speed for New Yorkers to legally ride them, the rule says. The rule also bans certain modifications to the bikes, including any change that lets the rider accelerate without pedaling.

The E-Bike Revolution Is Here

E BIKES, E-BIKE INFO, GENERAL INFORMATION
Ohm Urban E Bike

E-bikes are growing in popularity, and it’s not hard to see why, after all, who wouldn’t want some free speed to take the sting out of any ride?

e bike safety tips

e bike safety tips

Still need a bit of convincing? Here are a few other reasons to join the e-bike revolution…

Of course, electric bicycles offer many of the same benefits that regular cycling does but because you’ve got an added bit of oomph on board, you’ll be able to travel greater distances and ride for longer. They’ll also allow you to go faster than most cyclists and in some cases cars.

Although modern motors can travel at 50 times faster than cars of 100 years ago, gridlocked roads mean that the average car speed in traffic hasn’t increased at all. You can get up to 15mph almost instantly on an e-bike, while the average speed of cars in most central places is 7.4mph!

According to a recent report by the Transport Research Laboratory, regular bikes make it out of the shed fewer than 25 times a year, with 46% being used just once or twice a week.

In comparison, 30% of people with electric bikes use them once a day, while a whopping 81% ride them at least once a week. Which means that e-bike users are twice as likely as regular riders to get out there and ride.

Because you’re riding more, you’ll be pedaling more, even if that electric motor is helping you out on occasion. Which is good news for your heart, your lungs and your blood pressure because endless scientific studies have proven the link between regular exercise and reduced stress levels.

E-bikes are great, too, for people who love the idea of riding a bike, but feel they can’t because their fitness isn’t what it could be, or isn’t what it used to be due to age or illness.

Cruiser E Bike

Cruiser E Bike

You can pick up a new, decent quality e-bike from as little as $650 while upkeep costs are roughly the same as running a regular bike (for consumable parts like tyres, chains and brake pads).

In other words, far cheaper than buying, insuring and maintaining a petrol or diesel car, and a lot less than forking out for a season ticket or taking regular trips on public transport.

As for the cost of recharging your bike’s battery, we’re talking pennies when it comes to what it’ll add to your electricity bill. Most bike accidents on the road take place at junctions such as crossroads or roundabouts.

This is often down to the fact that it takes a few vital seconds for a halted cyclist to build up speed. Having that little motor to help you accelerate will get you out of the danger zone faster. For the same reason, you’re also less likely to jump a red light because you won’t feel so aggrieved about having to abandon all that nicely built up momentum.

You’ll be more willing to slow for bends and corners, too – where most cyclists come off – because you can use the bike’s motor to accelerate out the other side.

Finally, because you’ll be able to keep up with the flow of traffic more easily, fewer cars, buses and lorries will need to overtake you, which also means safer riding.

Yes, riding an e-bike is similar to riding a regular bike, but once you engage the motor, you’ll find that every time you push on the pedals – depending on the setting you’re using – you’ll get three, four, five or maybe even as much as 10 pedal strokes more for your money.

New York E-Bikes Come With Baggage

The presence of E-bikes in New York city has angered some people who think they are dangerous to everyone around.

new york city e bike

Mayor Bill de Blasio and the NYPD started cracking down on e-bikes, which are frequently used by delivery workers in January, arguing that they’re illegal and dangerous to pedestrians.

But cycling and immigrant advocates objected, stating that many low-income workers rely on these bikes and that safety concerns weren’t supported by data.

Towns in Germany and China that have accepted formal regulations regarding the usage of e-bikes could be instructive, Jon Orcutt said, as the e-bikes that are slower, and more manageable, are often the safer ones on the streets.

Here in the United States, Colorado adopted some legislations last year that specified where each class of e-bikes could be ridden, and which one required an age limit and a helmet.

The legislations regulating the technology is not fully accepted nationwide, with some states having little to no laws on their books regarding e-bikes. (New York City is still one of the only places in the country to deem certain e-bike classes “illegal.”)

In making the new rule, the Department of Transportation sought to strike a balance between embracing pedal-assist bikes and enforcing the state law barring the use of faster throttle-powered bikes. The department said it plans to reach out again to delivery workers, businesses and manufacturers to figure out a “legal framework” for converting throttle-powered models to pedal-assist bikes.

“We appreciate the feedback we received from New Yorkers through the rule-making process these last few months – including from those looking to find solutions for delivery workers who often ride throttle e-bikes,” Trottenberg said.

The city announced plans this week to add pedal-assist bikes to its Citi Bike fleet as part of a bike sharing service during next year’s L train shutdown.

JUMP Bikes, a Brooklyn-based company that operates electric bike-share programs in Buffalo, San Francisco and other cities, praised the Department of Transportation’s new rule.

E-Bike Brouhaha In New York

E BIKES, E-BIKE INFO, GENERAL INFORMATION
New York E Bikes

The rules surrounding electric bikes in New York has produced such social agitation thus revealing the huge potential this transport system holds. With the world combating global warming and climate change, there might be a need for another alternative.

New York E Bikes

Let’s not forget the huge traffic situations, packed roads with buses and trains emitting riders due to crisis-level pauses and slowdowns. With all this surging problems, E-bikes might be the alternative we need.

E Bikes – reduce toxic fumes

E-Bikes don’t have tailpipes belching poisonous fumes into the atmosphere. They also eliminate the oil, fuel and hydraulic fluids dripped by automobiles onto the road surface — which means less toxic runoff into local waterways.

We should also remember that bicycles don’t burn gasoline. A healthy bike culture will help ease pressure on supply once gas demand returns.

Electric Bikes Are Not New

E-bikes aren’t new, they’ve always been in existence but the expensiveness and the limited battery capacity has kept it at bay, this majorly in the States.
Other bike-friendly European cities like Copenhagen, Amsterdam, Utrecht, Berlin, Paris and Lisbon to mention a few, boast a significant amount of electric bikes.

energy efficient e bike

E-bikes generally are more attractive to both the old and the young. They get to enjoy the days better because they aren’t as worn out at the end of the day, or because they move through routes quicker.

Biking communities these days are putting their focus on E-bikes. While the bikes cost more to acquire and maintain, companies avoid passing along those costs to customers on bike tours.

Companies see e-bikes as a complement to, rather than a competitor to traditional bicycles, and report that cyclists of both kinds ride happily side by side on trips every day.

7 best ebikes of 2019

The Audi E-Bike

Following Audi’s purchase of Ducati valued at $1.2 billion, Audi has spent money on the layout of bikes, focused on the development of E-Bikes and the overall two-wheel market.

This could be seen in the Audi E-Bike very clearly with the extent of attention paid to details and the slick carbon fiber frame. The overall concept of the bike is looking into the future with bikes being equipped with cutting edge technology and constructed with only the best of materials.

Audi E Bike

The Audi E-Bike may be compared to only a minimal amount of bikes in the globe as can its hefty price tag. With weight around 4lbs and a 2.3kW electric motor and lithium ion battery the bike’s total weight is 24lbs (11kg).

The combination of various top engineers, fascinating alarm systems and integrated LED lights can only leave cycle lovers to similarly speculate over other unknown capabilities.

The X1 Explorer

X 1 Explorer E Bike

This is a sophisticated, eco-friendly, and long-range bike. It is well fortified with GPS tracking, remote key fob start, and an anti-theft alarm, it is compact and portable since it folds to the size of a golf bag in just a second.

This bike stands out from the crowd due to so many features yet with an affordable price reaching impressive speeds of up to 19 mph. You can take this bike anywhere, ride it on the train or bus stop, then fold it and pick it up onto any public transport.

Levo FSR Electric Mountain E-Bike

A perfect bike for those in love with nature, the mountain terrains. One of the stealthiest electric mountain bikes around with integrated battery and motor technology from Brose.

Responsive and zippy without producing a lot of noise, you don’t get shift detection here but the motor relies partially on torque sensors so it works naturally enough.

The battery pack can be completely removed, reducing the weight of the bike by nearly 7 lbs and enabling you to charge inside with ease. The front wheel offers quick release and you get some neat SWAT accessories for trail maintenance and rear wheel removal.

The tires are tubeless ready, seat post dropper has internal cable routing (along with most of the wires), the frame is e-bike specific with custom suspension and a large battery capacity.

The Skillion Max Classic E-Bike

Skillion Max Classic E Bike

Lopifit Walking E-Bike

Lopifit e bike

If you thought the e-bike revolution was over then right here is something to prove you wrong. The Lopifit combines top characteristics of scooters, treadmills and cool e-bikes into one.

It comes as a remedy to folks who thought that technology had ruined humanity’s need for bikes. This unique build combines an electric powered motor assist system and treadmill powered execution. The idea was to get a bit of walking exercise when you are out on the road and can not hit the gym. Like any other e-bike model, it calls for some effort from the rider for the motor to provide assistance.

The effort in this case is like walking motion that sets off a sequence of actions. In fact,to start it off, you just need to place one foot on the surface and side it towards the back. As you walk on the treadmill, the motor continues running and in order to come to a stop you will want to engage the hand brakes. What a first-rate work of art!

Stealth B52 Momber Electric Bike

As the name implies, the Stealth B52 electric bike was created to blow minds. It operates at a top speed of 50 mph and offers a range of up to 60 miles when fully charged. This makes it one of the most powerful e-bikes on this list.

It also adds to the usual pedal power using a nine-speed gear shift system that offers enhanced performance over all manner of terrain. While the range mentioned above is achievable on economy mode, full speeds would cut it down to 25 miles.

It has a well-placed display that shows important information. This display is intuitive and guarantees a user-friendly experience even when on the move. Its battery takes about three hours to recharge fully and this information also shows on the display.

Another highlight of the bike’s design is the fact that its digital inverter contains no moving parts and is therefore not prone to wear and tear. Other features also show its keen use of latest technology, for instance, its completely silent acceleration.

E-Bike Motors & Drivetrains – Essential Info

E BIKES, E-BIKE INFO, GENERAL INFORMATION
e bike motor

The electric motor is the single most important feature of an electric bike. The different types of motors that can be found on most electric bikes are the front hub, rear hub and the mid-drive motor.

Front hub motors are located on the front tire and provide propulsion by spinning the tire. The motor creates the sensation that the bike is being pulled forward.

Rear hub motors provide propulsion by spinning the back tire. They push the rider forward which can feel more natural to traditional bike riders than front hub motors.

Mid- drive motors send power to the bike’s drivetrain instead of a hub. Its central location creates a more natural riding sensation than hub motors.

The drivetrain provides the power and torque necessary to manually turn the wheels of the bicycle. Mid-drive motors send power directly to the drivetrain, making chain cranking easier. Most drivetrains also allow the rider to shift gears. Electric bike motors are available in a wide variety of power ratings, from 200W to 1,000W or more. The legal limit within most countries is 750W, although different states can set their personal limits.

Think of this limit kind of like a horsepower. A better rating means that the bike could be capable of pulling greater weight with more ease but at the cost of the usage of more battery capacity whilst doing so. consequently, a 750W motor will drain the battery much faster than a 250W one, but it will be more powerful.

Batteries

Since the bike’s battery affects the weight, the style, and the range of the bike, its choice is crucial. Batteries play a huge part in how electric bikes work. Most batteries you’ll find being sold on the market fall into one of the following two categories:

SEALED LEAD ACID (SLA)

e bike motors

These batteries were once the appropriate battery type for most electric scooters and electric bicycles. These days, most electric scooters still use SLA batteries, while electric bikes (which often require human input) have opted for newer battery technologies to keep the bike as lightweight as possible.

Advantages: Inexpensive

Disadvantages: Heavy and bulky. Offer a shorter riding range. Shorter life span of about 100-300 full cycle charges. Require more maintenance, and need to be charged immediately after use
LITHIUM (ION/POLYMER/MANGANESE/ETC.)

These are the newest technology in batteries. A lithium battery has a lifetime roughly 2-3 times that of an SLA battery. Lithium batteries are much lighter and also are largely maintenance-free.

Advantages: Lightweight – high-capacity, 36V10Ah Lithium-Polymer batteries can weigh as little as 6 pounds! Offer a longer riding range – battery can travel up to 40 miles in pedal-assist mode (or 20 miles on throttle-only). Longer life span of about 800 charges or 3 years of virtually daily use

Disadvantages: More expensive – starting at about $1,500 to $3,000 and above

Controllers

Available in a variety of patterns, the controller lets you operate the electrical assistance on your electric bike and is an important component in how electric powered bikes work.

The controller is placed at the handlebar for ease of use. There are different types of controllers – pedal-activated and throttle-primarily based controllers.

Pedal-activated structures provide electric powered assistance as you press down at the pedals. There is no need to engage the throttle – easy pedaling will do the trick.

Electric bikes with pedal-activated systems have a controller mounted on the handlebar that helps you to adjust the level of assistance that you receive as you pedal.

You can dial in the quantity of assistance you need, ranging from no assistance to a great deal of assistance.

Throttle-based controllers work with a simple throttle mechanism. The throttle will either be a twist-grip type or a thumb-press type.

With a throttle, you simply pull back or press the throttle to get hold of the electric assistance. a few electric bikes require nothing more than activating the throttle, allowing you to ride with out pedaling.

By and large, electric powered bikes are easy to use, ride, and preserve. overall, they require little maintenance past that which a standard bike requires.
