Harry's Electric Bike Tours around Quito

My name is Harry and I have been living in Quito since 2018. I bought an E-bike during the pandemic and fell in love with the freedom it gave me. I have cycled all over Quito and the surrounding areas so I bought two more electric bikes to take friends and family with me on my rides. I have decided to extend this to you guys so that you can see Ecuador in a unique and personalised way when you visit and book a private tour and join me on some of my favourite cycling routes!

Tours Around Quito

Inside the city I can take you on 3 hour half-day tours. Either through the city streets on the bicycle lane or to 'Metropolitano park'. On Sunday the city is closed from North to South to cars and we can cycle through it including the historic centre - called the 'Ciclovia'. All city tours cost $45 per person and include water, a snack and a crash helmet. All tours are for one or two people - perfect for a solo traveller or a couple who want to see Ecuador in a different way! Book Now on Airbnb Experiences https://www.airbnb.com/experiences/3727642

Tours Outside Quito

Full day tours from 5-8 hours can also be arranged. We will start and finish each tour in Quito but will go by car to the start point from 30 minutes up to 2 hours away. Tours to 'El Chaquiñan', 'Bosque Nublado Yunguilla' and 'Cotopaxi' are available. Full day tours from $65 to $95 per person depending on the location - including water, a snack, helmet and a lunch stop. Book Now on Airbnb Experiences https://www.airbnb.com/experiences/3799135

About the Bikes

The E-bikes have a maximum weight limit of 100kg and a minimum height limit of 150cm. They are pedal assist which means the battery kicks in only when you start pedaling. They have a range of 50km so all tours are designed that we cycle no more than that. You should be in reasonable shape as you are still required to pedal for the entire tour - the electric motor just means you won't feel exhausted when you do it. If you can ride a regular bicycle then you can ride an e-bike, there really is no learning curve!

How to Book

Tours in Quito are available Monday-Friday in the morning. Full day tours outside Quito are available on Saturday and Sunday. All of the tours are available to book on Airbnb Experiences or alternatively you can contact me to arrange a tour and pay a deposit through Paypal. The scheduled calendar on AirBnb is not definitive so if you don't see a tour on a specific date feel free to contact me and we can arrange something!

I don't list my trips to Cotopaxi on Airbnb; please use the contact form or WhatsApp to arrange with me. I only offer this at the weekend and from June-September because the clearest days and best views are at this time of year (especially July and August!). Cotopaxi national park can be extremely cold and on a wet and cloudy day it is not a particularly pleasant experience by bicycle. It lasts around 8 hours and costs $95 per person. We will start in Quito at 7:30am and take the highway to the south entrance of the national park. We will leave the car and ride the bikes into the park until Limpiopungo lake roughly 16km from the entrance. We will stop for a snack and a drink and you have the option to hike around the lake. We will cycle around taking in the views and nature before returning to the entrance of the park by bicycles. We will load up the bicycles on the car and stop for a late lunch on the way back to Quito. This trip is for experienced and fit cyclists only. The road begins smooth and paved before turning into a steep and rocky offroad track. Even though you have an electric motor you will still be required to use a lot of energy on the steep climbs. It is quite technical on the down hill ride on the way back.

Cotopaxi Volcano

If you are not sure if this is the right tour for you feel free to send me a message and ask any questions. I can send you more photos and videos of the national park too!

I will try to keep this section updated with photos as I do more tours!

AWARD-WINNING SERVICE CUSTOMER ACCOLADES RECOMMENDED BY ADVENTURERS

Challenging, fun and exhilirating.

“It’s clear these guys have spent hundreds of hours finding the best roads and a bunch of unique places to stay. The riding was challenging, fun, and exhilarating. Some of the hotels were so cool I wished I could spend a few days at each. This trip will want to make you come back for more. Note, you should have some off-road skills or take an off-road course unless you are planning a 100% asphalt trip. Dirt switchback roads in the rain are fun but intense - not for the inexperienced rider.”

Dan L., Ontario Canada

Once in a lifetime trip.

"We booked this Guided tour many months ago and looked forward to our arrival in Quito to see the folks at Ecuador Freedom! I have read so many 5-Star reviews for this place and truly thought that it had to be too good to be true! Not so!! All of the reviews and comments about how great the service is, how detailed the trips are planned, bike maintenance, etc are spot on. This was a once in a lifetime trip and we were not disappointed at all! We took this tour from June 29-July 8th and we were able to experience so many different aspects of Ecuador. One of the things that really sticks out is just how knowledgeable these guys are about the country. It is not just the roads and the places that they take you to visit, it is more about the depth of knowledge that they have about the history of Ecuador and the villages/people that we encountered. Not a question went unanswered and they always offered much more detail to explanations to our questions. That being said, the miles produced a lifetime of smiles as the scenery and area is breathtaking. All items that are mentioned in the ads for the tours are exactly what you get. All-Inclusive (except for alcohol/souvenirs) and that goes down to the fuel, bike, support vehicle, etc. Nothing is left undone and no detail has been missed. If you are into Adventure Riding of any kind and are at all on the fence about either going to Ecuador or using Ecuador Freedom.......get off the fence! Do it and get it booked right now. You will NOT be disappointed in any way!"

Honeymooners from London

We were looking to go on a bit of  an   adventure  for our honeymoon, but also wanted a little bit of luxury along the way. Freedom bike provides exactly that. We did 1000 miles in total across some of the most incredible and at times challenging terrain. Freedom Bike provided us with a BMW F800GS which never missed a beat on the entire trip. The locations and hotels were fantastic, to the point that it is impossible to pick our favourite point in the whole journey. Lagoons, waterfalls, ziplines, cloud forests, beaches, jungle trekking, canoeing and even floating down a river in the Amazon on a rubber ring; you'll struggle to find anything better than this. My wife is a vegetarian and she never once had any issues finding a good meal on the whole trip. Food for both of us was top notch.  Our lowest point was knowing it had to end! We almost had tears in our eyes when we had to hand 'Archer' (we named the bike) back. If you want  an  exciting honeymoon, or holiday in general, this is exactly what you should be doing. The whole team at Freedom Bike are incredible. So welcoming and friendly. Constantine makes a killer G&T too. Exactly what we wanted on return! Top tip: if you can get down to the shop the day before to complete all the paperwork and attend the briefing it makes your start day a bit more relaxed.   - Nic, London England

We Will Be Back!

I am not gonna dwell on the tour we did instead I shall talk about the experience I had with the company. The reason is because this is such a professional outfit I cant believe your customer satisfaction will be any different than mine regardless of the tour. The owners name is Court and although I had limited experience with him I can tell you one thing for sure, he knows the right people to hire. Andy our tour guide was not only a great rider, but a great guy. He made me feel not only welcome but as though I had made a new friend almost immediately. He seemed to have a sense that allowed him to choose a pace that was fast enough for faster riders, but worked for the slower ones as well. Bravo Andy this is a tough trick to pull off and you did it with seeming ease. As an aside his grasp of customer service was so superb It seemed hard to believe he was not born to perform it. We had a group of five so a chase truck was included. The guys in the truck were Raphael and Dave. Raphael was the support guy and once again the qualities he showed were the ability to make strangers friends in an instant excellent customer service skills and compassion for the riders when they were inevitably tired, hot, cold etc. Dave was the video guy and when he wasn’t taking outstanding pictures and videos was (you guessed it) the most helpful friendly guy you can imagine. Can you see a theme here? Ecuador freedom gave me and my group a terrific  ride . That I am sure was the easy part. This difficult part was to make us feel as though we we were the only reason the company existed. The sad part was not that the  ride  was over, but that I was leaving a group of friends behind. I would like to tell you this was the  ride  of a lifetime, and it was. But I am sure I will be back not only for another  amazing   ride , but to revisit the friends I left behind in Ecuador. -Steve, Covington Kentucky USA

These Guys Rock!

These guys rock !! I was traveling solo in Quito and got the urge to rent a bike and do a bit of riding in the mountains around Quito . Ran some research on the net and made my way to EFBR.  I could not have made a better choice. These guys are super professional and friendly and really know what they are doing. The setup is fab and fully equipped.  I did a 2 day rental without the tour and they went above and beyond in service even mapping out a few routes on the GPS ( which was not supposed to be included ), and guided me on some great roads to  ride .  Andy & Sylvain went out of their way to make me comfortable and get me equipped ( it was my first time renting and riding solo like this )  I had a great time , the machine was in great condition and ran faultlessly in all weather conditions and I had an  amazing  2 days thanks to these guys.  I hope to be able to return with some friends some days and do a longer tour.

4 military guys' trip.

Four military guys from North Dakota made the decision to fly to Ecuador and rent bikes on a guided tour from Ecuador Freedom Bike Rental in Quito. This was the best decision we made when it comes to riding in South America. The bikes were awesome and were inspected every morning. Raphael and Andy were our guides and they absolutely know the country and the unique places to eat and stay. "Pack For A Purpose" was  amazing  as we brought school supplies and musical recorders along to distribute to Ecuador elementary schools. Our hearts were blessed to see the schools and how we were helping the children. If you are looking at your first motorcycle destination  ride , then seriously explore Ecuador Freedom Bike Rental. You will not go wrong.  Rob K, North Dakota, USA

Simply the Best!

What is it you want to do or see in Ecuador ? How do you like your motorcycle to handle ? Just ask !  This team of passionate people will do everything to help you out and make your trip memorable. In fact, they are so good, we just had our third trip with them, all in less then 18 months. We were so well pampered that we immediately felt in love with Ecuador and we are still planning to go back soon.  Please note that my "budget friendly" appreciation refers to the fact that there is no surprises or admin fees. The advertised price is what you pay and almost everything is included (bikes, hotels, most meals). So when you plan, you can stick to that plan as prices in Ecuador are relatively on the low side.

-Patrick P.  Québec, Canada

An incredible organization

The front desk staff was fun and cheerful as they took us through our paperwork. The entire Freedom Bike Rental compound, in fact, is a whistle-while-you-work, wisecracking crew of folks who clearly enjoy one another's company and take pleasure in the work they do. Over two days, two guides gave us more than FOUR HOURS of unbelievably thoughtful briefings—on Ecuadorian road rules, relevant cultural mores, and the daily routes on the self-guided tour we were going to take. They've pretty much thought of everything, and that's not easy to do when you're sending people out on a motorcycle adventure this rigorous in a strange country. And when they welcome you back, it's with free beers, and open ears, to hear about your trip. Hard to imagine an operation of this nature could be any better. In fact, it's hard to believe it's this good.

The Best Experience!

This is my 1st experience with an adventure bike outfitting company, but I cant imagine it could get any better. A fun, easy going but very professional group at Freedom. Excellent support and information - from the website, pre trip communications, briefing and contact during the trip. I had never been to South America, yet felt comfortable with a self guided tour due to the preparation provided. Great equipment. Excellent knowledge of the routes. These guys have thought of everything.

Mind-Blowing Magical Adventure

John a . dirt deluxe self-guided tour.

So a friend and I just finished the "Dirt Deluxe" self guided tour on Suzuki DR650s. 5 nights. 6 days. The bikes were in excellent shape and meticulously maintained. Andy checked us in and went over the particulars of the bikes, navigation system operations, etc. Cort also briefed us on traffic/driving pointers and what to expect out on the routes. The whole process was extremely smooth and informative. The routes are easily to follow on the Nav system and broken down by days with points of interest and fuel stops indicated on screen. Daily routes sheets provided us with what to expect. Distances, elevation profiles, things to do and see along the way. The scenery is just beautiful. Riding through The Andes mountains and the small villages nestled in them is like riding back in time. This is a real adventure vacation not a watered down cruise ship excursion, but the daily distances were easily doable with plenty of time for lunch, touristy stuff, shopping, ect Now to the most surprising aspect of the trip. The accommodations. I could have never imagined how beautiful these lodges were going to be. Each one unique it is own way. Not generic first class, and each more amazing than the last. The dinners and breakfasts are delicious with several choices to suit all pallets. The staffs were there in what ever capacity you wished. I'm a low maintenance guy who doesn't require much pampering, but they were willing to attend to my every need. Once I returned from my supper to find my fire place lit and a hot water bottle in my king size bed! If you are a motorcycle enthusiast like myself or you want to try a different sort of vacation for a change, look through the website. They have guided tours also. Long tours. Short tours. Even tours in sturdy 4×4s. I am already looking forward to my next one!

David C - Self-Guided Cloudforest, Coast & Craters Tour

I had always dreamed of riding my motorcycle through South America. With a family at home, making time for a trip never allowed me to go. After scouring the internet and researching the rental and tour options, I decided on Ecuador Freedom. Convincing a lifelong friend to go was made easy with how well the self-guided tours are set up. We arrived a day early to get aquatinted with Quito. The first day we received a thorough briefing about riding in Ecuador, our route, and expectations along the way. Our 7 days on the road were simply amazing. Each day had a perfectly laid out route (a full day with stops, but not overwhelming), fantastic food suggestions, and amazing hotel accommodations. No single day was like the previous. We chose a dual-sport option and experienced some of the most incredible paved roads, phenomenal dirt roads, and even little trails we would never experience without the well laid out routes. Each day had its own route in the easy to use Garmin GPS. Each night we were met with a unique hotel that included breakfast, from beautiful beachfront to secluded luxury in the cloud forests. Each place is very memorable in its own way. The hosts at the hotels were equally accommodating to all of our needs. The food was simply fantastic (so much for losing a couple of pounds). As far as safety goes, we were pleasantly surprised by how good cell phone coverage was throughout the country. Even in the most remote areas, we both had cell service. Court answered our call during a road closure and quickly rerouted us right back on course. Once we finished, Court and Sylvain went out of their way to make our final few hours great. We had a few beers, a warm shower, a birthday party, and we left our bags at the shop to enjoy a nice meal in Quito before our 3 am flight home. They arranged a cab for us back to the airport at 11 pm. They genuinely care about their clients. There is simply no possible way in 7 days to get the same experience we had, except in a self-guided tour. I live in Colorado and ride all over the west, but none of that compares to what we experienced during the tour. Everything is so well planned for you, but you’re still on your own. I can’t recommend it enough and can’t wait to go back!!

Rainbows over Ecuador

Let me start at the end. On our ninth and last day of riding in Ecuador, we were returning to Quito with several of our party concerned about making flights home. Roads were being closed ahead of us as a result of torrential rains and landslides. We got an early start from our mountainside lodge, setting an aggressive pace along winding roads, rivers, and waterfalls. The key route to Quito closed just as we reached its entry point, some hours later. Until road crews could clear several points ahead, we were stuck. What a great time! Our party by now rode, worked, played, and relaxed well together. We also ate well together – so, lunch! Court and Sylvain, our guides and leaders (and the owners of Ecuador Freedom) just happened to know some people and a place back up a side road. In fact, they knew people everywhere – and that made a major difference in our trip. For our entire time in Ecuador, we traveled as part of the local communities, not as tourists riding through them. For that rainy lunch, we ended up at a small roadside restaurant that specialized in local trout, good coffee, and a warm fireplace. The rest of the small restaurant was occupied by a local wedding party – before we left, we were part of that party too, enjoying wedding cake as our ending sweet and dessert. It is easy to hit the guidebook sites for punch list check-offs – but experiences like this one enhance the soul. And this was the kind of experience we encountered repeatedly thorough our trip with Court, Sylvain, and Hannah, our third guide. The road opened (kind of…) and several hours of incredible riding (including through an active waterslide) brought us to the fringes of Quito, slowly clearing skies, and an enormous rainbow arching from one side of the horizon to the other. Seemed appropriate. We returned to the Freedom garage not as customers, but as friends. From the beginning - In July 2019 my daughter Melissa and I joined the Andes, Amazon and Pacific tour. She rode a BMW 310GS, perfect for her experience level and stature. I rode a VSTROM 650, which suited me very well. Three couples, riding two-up on somewhat larger bikes, made up the rest of our party. The range of available motorcycles and equipment was impressive – the condition of the bikes was excellent. I suggest you take a look at the photo gallery for that trip (July 2019 Andes, Amazon & Pacific) to get a real sense of how much we all enjoyed it! Court and Sylvain distinguish Ecuador Freedom from other larger and more advertised motorcycle tour options, in Ecuador and elsewhere. They have made Ecuador their home, and they have explored and experienced it first-hand. With and through them, we became a part of the culture and the people, not just the scenery. As an example, we stayed for two nights in Canoa, on the Pacific Coast. Did the checklist – walking to the seaside, thatched-roof restaurants, tropical drinks in the hot tub, motorcycling on the sandy beach, late-night conversations with the owners and friends. Canoa welcomed us in an unexpectedly warm and open manner – in part because Court and Sylvain were in Canoa during the massive 2016 earthquakes, experiencing the destruction first-hand and participating directly in the immediate rescue efforts and subsequent rebuilding. A connection like that cannot be booked as part of a big-company group reservation. Outside of Canoa was additional evidence of the depth of connection to the area – we had been asked to bring school supplies and related materials from the US for distribution in rural schools, and enjoyed a morning doing so, sharing books, dictionaries, teaching cards, and other educational supplies. One of our group also brought soccer balls and a pump to inflate them. Take a look at our photo gallery on the Ecuador Freedom website (July 2019) for a look at the expression on the kid’s faces as they got to sit on top of our motorcycles. Looked like naturals! In Baños, another two-night stop and the location of a waterfall dropping next to steaming hot baths, we also connected more deeply than tourists. We stayed almost next door to the baths, welcomed as family members more than strangers. It seemed the baths attracted the entire town for an after-dinner soak – I had a long and pleasant conversation with an Ecuadorian gentleman trying out his English (and my very limited Spanish) while up to our necks in hot water. A great equalizer, I might add. The next day, wandering through the local farmers’ market, I shared lunch at a small table with a three-generation family, grandmother spoiling grandson and granddaughter while mom and dad smiled on. What a way to experience local chicken soup. There were other highlights reflecting the consideration Ecuador Freedom gave to the specific interests of our party. One couple with us owns a plant and flower growing business in Pennsylvania. On their behalf, and to our great pleasure, we were invited to a rose growing farm and given an exceptionally interesting tour and introduction to that business – an important export for Ecuador. My suggestion – stay away from the rose flavored wine… Other highlights included motorcycling along the ancient Incan cobblestone roads, lunch with hummingbirds, and swimming underneath forest waterfalls, far off the beaten path. Sautéed grubs with jungle herbs, served in an indigenous village, was optional (but surprisingly tasty). Not all was perfect – which was, in a way, even better. I have visited perfect resorts and not enjoyed the experience in a visceral way. We had one night’s lodging at a banana plantation that had gone downhill since the last visit. Way downhill, to the extent that there were frogs and other interesting fauna in what was once a swimming pool. We all dealt with it with humor, as a bonding opportunity and a chance to order Rum from the town down the road. This contrasted with other lodgings – one so beautiful on the banks of an Amazonian tributary, with our own plunge pools and incredible food, another directly on a white Pacific beach, and yet another offering a late-night heated pool to take the edge off the day’s ride. On the whole, authentic rather than plastic, Ecuadorian rather than conventional and domestic. Wonderful. On my next trip, I will make two changes. First, I will make a better choice in waterproof gloves. There were high altitude rides through the clouds that got wet, and cold. For the same reason, I will bring a heated jacket and a patch cord to connect to the battery. Not a big deal, but it will make some of the higher altitude parts of the trip a little more comfortable. Prior to and after our tour, we stayed at the Sheraton Quito, right around the corner from the motorcycle shop. It was a very convenient location, and they took good care of us. More in Quito than of Quito, but frequent traveler points made it free. Next trip, I will add a day before and one more day after, to see more of the City and the area – unless we opt for some of Court and Sylvain’s new routes into Peru. My daughter and I loved the trip and loved taking it together.

Backroads of Ecuador Self-Guided Motorcycle Tour

If this is your first time riding motorcycles in South America, go with Ecuador Freedom? Our Backroads of Ecuador tour on Suzuki dr650's blew our minds on a daily basis - the routes are carefully selected to show the best of the Pacific Coast, the Andes, and the Amazon basin in just ten days! We traveled some of the most scenic roads, met locals and stayed at incredible lodges and hotels with swimming pools and hot springs. More, please!! The pre-recorded GPS tracks, pre-booked hotels, and daily roadbook sheets make it dead easy to travel - every step of the way, you've got restaurant recommendations, waypoints, optional off-road detours, places off the beaten path, and cultural experiences mapped out for you, so all you gotta do is jump on your bike and ride without worrying where you're eating and sleeping. It's like being on a fully guided tour but riding on your own - thumbs up for a brilliantly designed Moto experience?

Katy and Matt from Arizona

Top notch motorcycle rental in Ecuador! We have rented motorcycles all over the world and these guys are the best! They have a wide variety of motorcycles and tours available. We chose a self guided tour. We actually did two separate self guided tours with them while we were in Ecuador. Ecuador Freedom Motorcycle Rental provided us with a clean, well maintained motorcycle, tools, air compressor, first aid kit and plenty of luggage capacity. For the self guided tour, Ecuador Freedom booked our hotels and provided us with a GPS with all routes pre-programmed. Really easy to follow. The hotels were all special in some way, whether location, views, luxury or included meals. None were disappointing and some were really amazing! Along with the pre-programmed GPS, we also received a daily note sheet, one for each day of the ride. This included recommended stops for sightseeing and meals organized by trip kilometers. Very helpful! I should add that the routes are not just to get you from point to point. The routing itself is one of the best parts of this trip. Many great motorcycle roads, incredible views - some of the old cobblestone routes were the most memorable! Ecuador Freedom’s facility in Quito is clean, organized and fun! Their entire staff appreciates and looks after their customers. We didn’t take advantage of any of their riding gear, but they had a huge selection of quality gear for their customers. They have an organized and polished process of greeting customers and getting them on their bikes and on the road. For the self guided tour, we were provided with a thorough orientation of the route, Ecuadorian driving customs and any other special issues of note. We received a separate bike orientation with a point by point inspection checklist and a review of the tool kit. Customer service? We had a problem with one bike and Ecuador Freedom was at our hotel the following morning with a replacement! Ecuador Freedom provides you with a cell phone if you need to contact them. We called twice and received prompt attention each time. Ecuador Freedom Motorcycle Rentals has truly raised the bar for motorcycle tour and rental companies. Others would do well to follow their lead. We had an epic vacation, thank you!

Kommunikation zwischen C7 Display und Motorkontroller NCM Venice+ Das-Kit

I have already published my research and results in the 'other' pedelec and E bike forum, but I hope to also reach other interested people here. First of all, thanks to Arthus Dent who started over a year ago and based on his work. My NCM Venice + 48V e-bike with Das-Kit C7 display and probably Lishui controller. On the back of the display is C600-1705- B640 V2.7-EN . After entering the code (8018), the display only allows you to change three support levels (Eco Normal Power) and to select the voltage 36 or 48V. Lockdown speed and wheel diameter are not accessible. There are very poorly available € 119 tuning displays in which the last two things can also be changed. So I cut the cable open and found out the function of the cable and the pin assignment using an oscilloscope and logic analyzer (yellow is thumb gas with the usual about 1 to 4 volts) Messages with 9600 baud at 3.3Volt TTL levels are exchanged on the data lines so that I could examine the protocol via USB TTL adapter. At approx. 10 Hz, 12 bytes come from the display to the controller, which responds with 10 bytes. Without a message from the display, nothing is sent from the controller. If you put the switch-on signal on the supply voltage, the controller uses the last setting and also works without a display. For better testing, I soldered a pin header into the cable so that I can easily interrupt individual signals: But now the exciting results: Display -> Motor controller b0 b1 b2 b3 b4 b5 b6 b7 b8 b9 b10 b11 3A 2C 0A 46 1A 48 08 06 EC 00 0D 0A Byte0: always 3A Byte1: always 2C Byte2: changes depending on the support level 09 with Eco 0A with Normal 0B on Power Byte3: changes with drive level 0x56 pushing aid 0x40 level 0 0x41 level 1 ... to 0x46 level 6 Byte4: final speed 0x1A = 26km / h Byte5:? Byte6:? Byte7:? Byte8: checksum (b1 + b2 + b3 + b4 + b5 + b6 + b7) mod 256 Byte9:? Byte10 and 11: 0D 0A (CR LF) * The controller responds accordingly: Controller -> Display b0 b1 b2 b3 b4 b5 b6 b7 b8 b9 3A 2C 00 60 EA 00 76 01 0D 0A b0: always 3A b1: always 2C b2: motor current 0x00 to 0x2A not yet checked but makes sense , when the rear wheel is up and pedaling brings a short 01 b3: cycle time v = 1325 / b3 (at 27.5 ") at standstill always 0x60 b4: b3 and b4 are low byte and high byte of the cycle time. b5: engine running: 0x00 im Standstill, goes to 0x16 as soon as the motor is switched on b6: checksum (b1 + b2 + b3 + b4 + b5) mod 256 b7: in stand 0x00 when the rear wheel turns 6km / h + -0.8km / h it goes to 0x01. Even at about 2km / h, in a smaller speed window. b8 and 9: 0D 0A (CR LF) Next I grabbed a microcontroller (Teensy) and changed the messages coming from the display to the controller so that when I selected level two, I sent it to controller 6 at 36km / h maximum speed . With 3D printed housing: Depending on the battery voltage, the controller regulates at 29 to 32 km / h. Since the bike is also sold in the USA by Magnumbikes as Metro Plus with 500Watt and 45km / h, I hope there is more. But it may be that another motor is installed there that can turn faster. If you are interested I can also write more detailed instructions on how to connect and program a 5 Euro microcontroller there. In case someone just wants to replicate it. You could also build a simple adapter and would have a pluggable solution. Sebastian Click to expand...

Interesting. I swapped the Magnum display and controller both onto NCM Aspen+, and it didn't make any difference at all. Did this 4 months ago.

I'm going to test the correct speed with a gps app on my phone tomorrow sometime. Also planning to see if changing tire size will affect anything.

Other things I noticed. The battery meter doesn't work on the G660 when connected to my NCM, only voltage. Changing the tire size does nothing for increasing speed.

FullyCharged said: The first thing that came to my mind after my first ride on my 48V/500W NCM Moscow Plus was "How can I make this bike faster?" Throttle was maxed at 20mph(32km/hr) and the Petal Assist top speed was limited to 23mph.(37km/h) I knew the motor was capable of much more to stay within the specs of Class 3. So I made it my mission to try to find a hack or aftermarket hardware that would run my bike at the sweet spot of 28mph/45 kmh (Top end of Class 3) I took to the internet to figure out my problem. After hours of digging through the interwebs I came across this thread in a german pedelec forum. Kommunikation zwischen C7 Display und Motorkontroller NCM Venice+ Das-Kit Moin, ich habe bereits im dem 'anderen' pedelec und E bike Forum meine Untersuchung und Ergebnisse veröffentlicht, hoffe aber hier zusätzlich noch weitere interessierte Leute zu erreichen. Zunächst einmal ein Dank an Arthus Dent der schon vor über einem Jahr damit angefangen hat und auf dessen... www.pedelecforum.de Code: https://www.pedelecforum.de/forum/index.php?threads/kommunikation-zwischen-c7-display-und-motorkontroller-ncm-venice-das-kit.57050/page-1 A member by the name of vspadrva made some interesting advances.

This is great info. I wonder if they make a higher amperage controller that is compatible. Paying 2x as much for a Magnum display to get a few mph faster doesn't really seem worth it to me. I would want to make it a legit Class 3 to make it worth while if that was possible

FullyCharged said: I can tell you there is a difference in the ride when you have the other on. Maybe not 28mph fast, but faster than a stock NCM display. The biggest difference is when you have a full battery. With the G660 Display installed its like the bike is on steroids. Acceleration is faster and doesn't lag as much. I was testing on the strip of road out front of my house today. Full battery starts for both tests. Click to expand...

For some, little gains = big rewards. I almost pulled the trigger on NVM Aspen+ but for a couple hundred more, I ended up getting a Juiced Rip Current because it is already class 3 and comes with 52v battery.

So - just wondering - what does running the bike at 25+ mph do to battery life? I haven't consistently kept mine a 20, but I imagine it drains much quicker...

FullyCharged said: The first thing that came to my mind after my first ride on my 48V/500W NCM Moscow Plus was "How can I make this bike faster?" Throttle was maxed at 20mph(32km/hr) and the Petal Assist top speed was limited to 23mph.(37km/h) I knew the motor was capable of much more to stay within the specs of Class 3. So I made it my mission to try to find a hack or aftermarket hardware that would run my bike at the sweet spot of 28mph/45 kmh (Top end of Class 3) I took to the internet to figure out my problem. After hours of digging through the interwebs I came across this thread in a german pedelec forum. Kommunikation zwischen C7 Display und Motorkontroller NCM Venice+ Das-Kit Moin, ich habe bereits im dem 'anderen' pedelec und E bike Forum meine Untersuchung und Ergebnisse veröffentlicht, hoffe aber hier zusätzlich noch weitere interessierte Leute zu erreichen. Zunächst einmal ein Dank an Arthus Dent der schon vor über einem Jahr damit angefangen hat und auf dessen... www.pedelecforum.de Code: https://www.pedelecforum.de/forum/index.php?threads/kommunikation-zwischen-c7-display-und-motorkontroller-ncm-venice-das-kit.57050/page-1 A member by the name of vspadrva made some interesting advances. He managed to use an oscilloscope and logic analyzer to reverse engineer the Das-Kit C7 Display and create code using a microcontroller (ESP2866) to intercept the data being sent through the bikes data cables. Here's a translated quote of his OP on that thread. The thread goes on and other smart programmers find a way to change the data values NCM set it place with their custom firmware.

Also those german riders had 250W motor kits installed and were only trying to go as fast as my bike already could stock. (Due to speed restrictions in Europe) So now what? Something from vspadrva's post stuck with me. This got me looking at Magnumbikes website. Low and behold they run the same Das-Kit C7/i5 controller system (data protocol) as my NCM bike but can reach 28MPH! This brought me to youtube looking up display tuning videos for Das-Kit C7 displays. MagnumBikes has a video posted there. I watched it and saw the tuning screens (Pedal Assist/Throttle) that my NCM doesn't have in its settings menu . After watching, I starting thinking that maybe the speed restriction data is stored in the Das-Kit i5 Controller firmware. I would be SOL unless I changed the Controller and the Display. But then I saw this image attached on that same german pedelec thread. View attachment 48098 Once I saw those chips, I knew there was firmware in the displays restricting the speed tuning options. I ordered a Magnumbikes C7 - 5 wire display. View attachment 48108 View attachment 48099 Got it today, removed my stock NCM display and installed Magnums. Guess what? I can now go 25mph on assist and 23mph on throttle. Here's a YT video of the new Display and the tuning options it gives my NCM Moscow Plus.

Steve Webb said: Really appreciate the help. Having fitted my C7 new display with throttle it is definately a bit quicker but the power only assists up to 20 mph. I followed your video tutorial and one setting lets me set at 28 mph but the next screen will only allow setting up to 20 mph, it is the screen showing the capital T on its side l- . Any advice as to why not getting the 28mph option here would be much appreciated. Click to expand...

My Mrs has the identical NSM Moscow but with the original L7 display, and certainly not much more than 5mph difference in speeds. Will try with a GPS app though when get a chance, but thanks for advice.
