Life with a Trike: April 2010
http://lifewithatrike.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Life with a Trike. Some observations about riding and modifying a Christiania Trike. Sunday, April 11, 2010. Let there be light! The local bike shop received a stack of lights for our upcoming winter and I liked the look of the Cygolite MiliOn 200. The light output is fantastic and simply does not compare to the lights I had mounted previously. Honestly sometimes I think I am just better off sticking to the road! Links to this post. Sunday, April 4, 2010. Sheldon Brown Memorial ride. Each year the LBS ho...

Life with a Trike. Some observations about riding and modifying a Christiania Trike. Thursday, June 10, 2010. Was after some test riders for a range of electric bikes they are importing and I volunteered! I spent two days with a 'townie' style electric bike with a 200 watt hub motor in the rear wheel, 36volt lithium battery, pedelec system, brake cut off and twist throttle. Links to this post.

Life with a Trike: October 2010
http://lifewithatrike.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
Life with a Trike. Some observations about riding and modifying a Christiania Trike. Monday, October 11, 2010. A recent comment on my blog led me to this website. In this shot you can see the light, the generator unit and the magnets that attach to the spokes and provide the power as they spin past the generator -. The installation was very easy and the thought that has gone into the product is quite impressive. For example -. Any excess cable can be wound into the generator unit. Links to this post.

Life with a Trike: January 2012
http://lifewithatrike.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Life with a Trike. Some observations about riding and modifying a Christiania Trike. Thursday, January 19, 2012. Original handlebar - all in one piece with lots of curves. New handlebar mounting point for lights. This new mount from Christiania screws through the front of the box and basically adds a small 'handlebar' where any standard bicycle light can be positioned. I am thinking of obtaining one that can run off the motor battery so am researching a few options for this. And my youngest is happy with...

http://lifewithatrike.blogspot.com/2011/03/christiania-goes-electric.html
Life with a Trike. Some observations about riding and modifying a Christiania Trike. Wednesday, March 23, 2011. I was chatting to Peter from PSbikes. And received some information on the new e-trike now available direct from him. Christiania has come to the electric bike party and can now supply cargo trikes (and two wheelers) with a small geared hub motor in the rear coupled with a 9 amp hour Panasonic Li-ION battery integrated into a rear carrier rack -. April 8, 2011 at 10:46 AM. Wow, thats great news!

Life with a Trike. Some observations about riding and modifying a Christiania Trike. Tuesday, August 31, 2010. Yes I have not updated the blog in a while - life has been a bit hectic! The Aussie distributor of the Christiania has a new website and if you look closely here. You may even see a couple of shots of my bike (photo 82 and 83). Indeed looking through all the great photos I may even have some more ideas about what I can do to the trike! Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Time for a W...

Life with a Trike. Some observations about riding and modifying a Christiania Trike. Saturday, September 18, 2010. An electric vehicle show was held today and it had something for everyone. From these 1917 Detroit electric vehicles (yes electric cars have been around that long! That have a top speed of about 40km/h and a range of 50km -. Through to the showstopping Tesla. In other displays one guy had even converted his ute to electric and piled all the batteries into a lockable box on the rear tray -.

http://lifewithatrike.blogspot.com/2012/06/motor-update.html
Life with a Trike. Some observations about riding and modifying a Christiania Trike. Thursday, June 21, 2012. I tried to get a side cover from ebikes.ca (who supplied the motor originally) however they were a bit slow to my requests to get one sent (unusual for them but later found out some emails fell through the cracks with staff on leave - it happens! They even gave me some pointers on how to remove my cover and replace it with the new one. Drive side of the motor. My previous seven speed freewheel wa...
