About eBikeGarageHQ

Welcome to eBikeGarageHQ

Kenny Nyhus Fadil is the publisher behind ebikegaragehq.com and a lifelong polymath whose benches keep electrifying. He rides and wrenches in Sweden through four honest seasons — mid-drive and hub-drive bikes he owns, plus a conversion he built himself — and brings a battery-bench literacy to a category drowning in spec-sheet fiction. eBikeGarageHQ is part of a network of niche sites Kenny publishes openly. He writes about e-bikes the way a garage mechanic with a multimeter writes — real range logged on a repeatable loop, maintenance truth at e-bike torque, and honest about which upgrades move you further and which just move money.

What We Cover

• Real Range – The logged test loop: same route, recorded temperature and assist level, energy measured at the wall — against an industry of asterisk-free range fiction
• Hub vs Mid-Drive – Ride feel, hill truth, maintenance load, and weight distribution from owning both classes
• Conversions – Kit selection, battery pack choices, controller behavior, and what breaks first — from the author’s own build, mistakes included
• Battery Care – Charge habits, storage levels, winter capacity truth, and fade expectations, written with actual battery-bench literacy
• Four-Season Commuting – Studded tires, lighting, fenders, racks, and the maintenance rhythm of riding through a Nordic winter

Our Approach

Tested, not hyped. Range claims here come with a method: the same loop, logged conditions, charge energy measured at the wall — because Wh is Wh, and the math can be done in public. The site has standing biases earned in the garage: manufacturer range claims are weather-dependent fiction, the motor matters less than where the weight sits, and a torque-sensor mid-drive ruins you for everything else. Legal limits — the EU’s 25 km/h / 250W frame we actually live under, and the US class system — get stated correctly every time. What you will not find here is throttle-bro content that ignores the law, marketing range numbers repeated as fact, or “this bike will change your life” filler.

About the Author

Kenny Nyhus Fadil commutes year-round in Sweden on a Bosch-system mid-drive, runs an Aventon-class hub-drive for the value-tier verdicts, and built his own Bafang-class kit conversion — with the dropout and torque-arm lessons documented for the reader’s benefit.
