Is that really the case here? I assume once the battery is dead then the bike won't move, regardless of how hard you pedal.</p> <p>I mean, I doubt any regulator or police officer would really care - but it would be interesting to find out. Also, I assume you really could get stuck when the battery dies. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=21914#post-383837 Fri, 10 Apr 2026 20:22:21 +0000 LaidBack 383837@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>French company Cixi have produced a drive unit that converts your pedal strokes into power and controls the output of the rear hub motor.
