    How to add a throttle to a Carrera Vengeance E Spec

    Hiya, We have 5 'beta' versions that will be ready next week. Been struggling to get hold of the right throttles currently. The beta versions can be swapped out later if required for free. It's just the throttle what will be different. Which bike is it for?

    How to add a throttle to a Carrera Vengeance E Spec

    Evening, The kit once released will plug in between the PAS sensor on the bottom bracket and the controller. It will come with matching 3 pin plugs to make it very easy to fit. The hardest thing will be removing one of the grips to slide the throttle on. :-) Thanks, Steve

    How to add a throttle to a Carrera Vengeance E Spec

    At the moment it does not derestrict it, this is because of the direct drive which will either require something to sit in between the motor wires OR developing a different replacement controller, which may be a possibility. (derestrict/throttle) but that's a bit in the future at the moment...

    How to add a throttle to a Carrera Vengeance E Spec

    Yes, I think it does. It all depends on how fast you pedal it seems. I'm outputting pulses from 600ms to 40ms which seems to cover the full range.. The Vulcan / Crossfire will require a double pulse which will be slightly faster due to the opto(s) vs hall sensor arrangement. Steve

    Thanks :-) much appreciated. It's never going to make millions but hopefully will get me some beer tokens.. Steve

    How to add a throttle to a Carrera Vengeance E Spec

    Yep, it's a variable speed output. On the vengeance depending what assistance mode you're in defines the top speed. The high pushes it to 15mhp on the flat, about 10mph up hill. I've adding some smoothing so it doesn't jump off at the start to, incase you are creeping behind cars at lights etc...

    How to add a throttle to a Carrera Vengeance E Spec

    Hi, still in testing stages at the moment on the Vulcan. This one uses two opto sensors triggered every 10th degree. The codes been wrote but we are waiting on the 4 pin connectors at the moment. Should be ready in a few weeks time. :-) will need a few testers so will be offering a great...

    How to add a throttle to a Carrera Vengeance E Spec

    No problem :-) I've decided to turn this into a commercial product. Just waiting for the components to arrive and finalise the design. I'm hoping to be able to provide a throttle upgrade for most of the Carrera range. Website will be http://LazyLegs.co.uk .. I'm currently working on getting...

    £1700... Full eMBT, which one?

    Thanks Gringo and others for your replies.. I'll definitely have a look at them.. Although me being me couldn't hang around and miss this deal. Well I thought it was a good deal anyway :-) Meet the new wife.. she's a 2017 overvolt AM 600 with a Bosch CX motor :-) Couple of things need...

    £1700... Full eMBT, which one?

    The reason for the full suspension is the smoother ride, but also controllable, different psi rates. My lower back got a right bang in a car accident and since my mileage has increased considerably since I jumped on my Carrera vulcan E.. (35 miles on one ride!) I'm also not a spring chicken...

    £1700... Full eMBT, which one?

    So I'm looking to upgrade to a full suspension bike with I think the Bosch CX motor. More than happy to buy secondhand, infact I think it's my only option. So, I've been looking at what's available in my price range and at the moment ended up with three bikes. I was hoping if people could pass...

    Wanted - Bafang SW02X motor hub

    Yeah.. I can trace and repair the PCB (maybe) but I'm guessing the coils are shot so I would be wasting my time. Oh well... Andy got back to me with a price but I'm going to hold off and see if I can get a used one. I'm in no rush as I have two working ebikes at the moment.. one with your...

    Wanted - Bafang SW02X motor hub

    Hey fella, well I took my working vengeance round a 10 mile trip (with your working throttle) to Halfords and bought a cassette tool to fit. I've managed to remove this and discovered the hall sensor board.. It's this that looks like it's fried. Can you get hold of just these boards? Photo...

    How to add a throttle to a Carrera Vengeance E Spec

    Happy to report I've just done 10 miles on throttle only... it coasts along at 15mph.. slows to about 10-11 on hills and freewheels up to 20mph on the course I just went. :) Battery is about 20-30% left I think. It's hard to tell on the vengeance as its only got 4 leds that don't help much. Also...

    How to add a throttle to a Carrera Vengeance E Spec

    Need to be careful when upping the amps, that's +15% increase which is quite a bit. Would need to look at the wiring / cooling etc.. so it's more power you're after :-) I've been trying to convince the wife I need a full suspension ebike.. it's not happening sadly.

    How to add a throttle to a Carrera Vengeance E Spec

    Can't you already add a throttle to that? If that's a centre motor then as well as a throttle you should be able to also increase the speed :)

    How to add a throttle to a Carrera Vengeance E Spec

    Thanks guy, Just been out as it stopped raining and I've improved the code a little (updated above), very happy with the outcome now. did a couple of miles without any problems.. well besides not burning any calories! Just waiting for my Arduino nanos to arrive without soldered pins so I can...

    How to add a throttle to a Carrera Vengeance E Spec

    UPDATED v1.1 code (30/05/2018) Improved the pulse conversion from the throttle Improved the pulse replication from the pedal So, with the kind help from Tony at Wooshbikes.co.uk I've been able to complete this little project. :) He supplied a thumb throttle and a replacement DH Sensor which is...

    Carrera vengeance faulty sensor? Add throttle?

    Great, thanks for this. Code will be finished and tested then I’ll send you a copy. Been round the block a few times here and it’s working great. Getting decent speed :) Steve
