Get the 44T chainring, lowest gear is 28.2”.

@BestSideCycling 9 месяцев назад
🤣 I don't plan to go up these gradients all the time. I've found the 50T to be good overall for riding around Seattle. This was just a fun challenge but I did change my P line to 44T for riding in HK
@SteffiReitsch
@SteffiReitsch 9 месяцев назад
You've gotta zig zag, and that chain ring sure is big for doing this. 50T is too big for a hilly city, IMO.

The bag on the handle bar added additional weight and not aero! That must be the reason why you two couldn’t make it over the hill!
@BestSideCycling
@BestSideCycling 9 месяцев назад
😂 to be fair parth I think saw some cars coming but I definitely should have been able to make it over. I wanted the bag to make it a realistic scenario

Would you be able to climb this hill? What did you think of our effort? What's the steepest thing that you've climbed?
@DanielTompkinsGuitar
@DanielTompkinsGuitar 9 месяцев назад
The steepest hill for me is still Heart Attack Hill on the Tolt Pipeline in Woodinville. I'm really curious to know if your commuter e-bike can make it up as that hill is on my commute and is really killer. Out of about 100 attempts, I've made it up twice on a gravel bike.
@allanohlsen7729
@allanohlsen7729 9 месяцев назад
Heart attack Hill is hard enough on a MTB. I did it once doing Stinky Spoke.

I had NO IDEA there was a toolkit hidden in the tube! 🤯 The zig zags, legs of steel and iron will get you to the top. Maybe a little help from a friend. 🤣

@BestSideCycling
@BestSideCycling 9 месяцев назад
For sure it'd be able to make it over with the effort we were giving it. Though sometimes the front wheel lifts as you ride this steep so I wonder how that would work out with the front hub motor.

I thought small wheeled bikes had the advantage on hills over large wheeled bikes. He booked it up the hill on his road bike.
@BestSideCycling
@BestSideCycling 7 месяцев назад
Haha, the Brompton weighs a whole LOT more than a road bike + he was clipped in versus not which is a huge difference for these sprint efforts.

The internal gears have too much drivetrain friction and your chainring is too big. China has a tri fold with a external 9 speed

Oh man you can get that, maybe shed some weight off the bike and use clipped pedals next time.
@BestSideCycling
@BestSideCycling 9 месяцев назад
😂 I felt like clipped pedals would take it out of the realm of a normal brompton ride but I agree it would have helped 100%

You look like you weigh less than 75kg. Nobody weighing 90kg or more would make it up this hill. Even on a T line. I have a Tern Verge X11. And its a greqt hill climber. Dont know if I could get up this hill on it. But I wouldnt be screamimg the place down like you either lol.

Should you get a Brompton? Four year opinion.
