Hi,

Just to introduce myself. 35 years old and cycling 12 miles a day to and from work on my 4 week old 'powacycle salisbury lpx'
I work as an engineer in a busy factory and have a very keen interest in what makes new bike go.
In my spare time (does that really exist when you have small children?) I also enjoy working on my website.
My current 'project' is to make a study of my bike so I can understand what makes it go and find out how it can be modified. There is precious little technical data on this bike anywhere on the internet. I don't mean specifications. Its schematics, so I can see how it is restricted and why the tri-mode switch only allows two different functions.
It is not that I am unhappy with the salisbury. Far from it. It is just part of who I am to want to take things apart and see how they work.
So far, I have had the control box apart and found the 3 phase controllers, identified the hall sensors wiring etc and understand it a lot better than when it first arrived.
I am building my own schematics and principles of how the bike works so other people with salisbury's can get help if theirs ever develops a fault.
Any body with any information they can pass onto me, please feel free.
When the plans are reasonably detailed and there are enough of them I will post the pages and the URL here.
In the meantime, I am enjoying reading the posts...
