ABUS offers a wide range of lock options to keep your eBike secure and now their YourPlus system keeps things simple with a one key solution.
The ABUS YourPlus key system allows you to have one key for your eBike battery lock that will also work with an ABUS lock.
The system can also be set up so 1 key can work with multiple locks and that can be useful for families with multiple bikes to lock up.
Let’s take a closer look at how the YourPlus system works.

UK company Gecko have just been released their new ‘Regular’ branded tyres on 700 x 40 and 26 x 1.75 sizes.
We’ve tried these tyres before in their Comfort range (a little softer than the regular range and made specifically for e-bikes).
I have just headed over to York’s Electric Transport Shop to try some of the free-rolling 700 x 40 sized new Regular Geckos.
Although Gecko say they are suitable for non electric bikes I thought it would be great to try them out on an e-bike and to compare them to the softer Comfort versions we have on long term test on our Heinzmann e-bike. [Read more…]
A majority of hydration packs have used the same configuration of placing the heavy water weight on your back.
The Henty Enduro Backpack ($110 USD) changes that by placing the heavy water weight (up to 100 oz.) & pack (tools/food/clothing) weight at your waist level.
This makes a big difference because you don’t feel the heavy pack weight as much on your back and shoulders. It also makes a big difference if you are moving around a lot on the bike.
For instance if you are mountain biking on technical terrain, traditional back mounted hydration packs move around a bit.
The Henty Enduro Backpack really stays with you as you maneuver through technical riding because it is very close to your center of gravity.
In a lot of ways it really feels like you are carrying a much lighter pack when compared to typical hydration backpacks. [Read more…]

ABUS continues their innovative work with the recent development of their Nutfix security for wheels and the seatpost.
A lot of bikes come with quick release levers for the front and rear wheels and seatpost.
This is good for the quick removal of the wheels and adjustment of the seat height for you but it also makes these easy items to steal off of your bike when just the frame is locked up. [Read more…]
Electric bike specific gear is starting to emerge as eBikes become more and more popular.
It is not much of a surprise that ABUS is one of the first to launch their Pedelec+ helmet that is based on their commuter style helmets with a focus on eBikes.
ABUS is known for innovative, durable, and useful locks, helmets, and bags.
The Pedelec+ helmet has some interesting features like the built in rain cover, integrate rear LED visibility light, and Fidlock magnetic lock strap connection. [Read more…]
