    Kudos Tornado - £260

    Up for sale is my Kudos Tornado. I bought this 2nd hand about 18 months ago. It had a fault with the controller, so I changed the controller and display for an S09P and S-LCD3. The Controller is currently set to 11amps maximum, but can be configured tor 22amps. Likewise, although the...

    Carrera Crossfire-e - non-Carrera replacement battery

    I've finally got around to trying the Phyllion SF-06 cased battery from my Greenway on my partner's Crossfire-e. It seems to work fine (at least in the short term). It's only a 10.4ah battery but as a spare "get you home" battery it did the job nicely when the original got down below 10%...

    250w BBS-HD?

    http://www.goldenwheelgroup.com/en/product/e-totem-2017/city-bike/2017/0503/157.html Is this really a BBS-HD with a legal 250w stamp or a mistake? Would be interesting to see how much one of these would be in the UK if it is for real.

    Is there any point in Over Volting a mid-drive motor?

    Running a 36v hub motor with a 48v battery is a proven way to increase top speed (subject of course to legal restrictions, controller limitations etc). With a 36v mid-drive motor wound to be at peak efficiency at (say) 100rpm, what benefits does running with a 48v battery give? Presumably max...

    Greenway Cross City

    I thought I would start a review thread for the Greenway Cross City bike. The bike features a Bafang Maxdrive mid motor rated at 250 watts nominal and a 10.4Ah battery in an SF-06 casing. Trying to order from the Greenwaycycles website didn't get me very far. In the end I stepped up and...

    Kudos Tornado - Project - recommend me a new controller?

    I recently picked up a second hand Kudos Tornado which had a fault. Although the display worked, the speedometer wasn't registering and assist was limited to one level - the buttons on the display to adjust assist level appeared to have no effect other than changing the number on the display...

    Carrera Crossfire-E Cutouts?

    I have now done about 400km on my Crossfire-e - in that time it has cutout 4 times. Halfords solution seems to be to check the connections and see how it goes. My partner's bike also cuts out. It's an annoyance rather than a critical fault, but if I had bought a new car, I wouldn't put up...

    Spare Battery for Carrera Crossfire-e?

    I was just browsing ebay and came across this: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/112208482435?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT The battery casing looks identical to that for the crossfire-e (and has the same joycube sticker), but only has 10.4ah capacity. Is this a...
