    Urban mover questions

    Urban mover? Hi, I don't think this is an urban mover. It is not part of the current range and does not have the urban mover battery style that they have been using for a couple of years. Jonathan.

    Rain killed my pedal sensor :(

    Urban mover pedal sensor Hi, I had various issues, but it seemed to be more to do with the 3 wire connector for the pedal sensor than the sensor itself. Taking it apart and remaking it 10 times did the trick. I have re-jigged my bikes controls to make them much less susceptible to bad weather...

    Urban Mover cutting out ?

    More mods. Hi, will be intersting to see if you fix it with the connector. I agree that this seems to be most likely cause. I tested the bike yesterday in extreme rain. and all is fine, though water was still getting into the control compartment via the drain hole underneath. I have done more...

    Urban Mover cutting out ?

    Problem seems to be fixed Hi, I see that you sell them amongst others..... I did two things, I unplugged and replugged the tiny pedal sensor connector 10 times in the control box, to clean the contacts. I then noticed that one of the large sprung contacts was sized. Looking at the underside of...

    Urban Mover cutting out ?

    UM Cutting again Hi, Sorry I was not there to answer the post from Dickbris. Unfortunately, I have the cutting out problem again on my UM36. I'm wondering if Dickbris can tell me which connections are suspect. The sensor connections are just very small push connectors (which I could imagine...

    6 speed to 7 speed conversion

    reply from Jonathan Thanks for the really helpful replies as usual. Looks like best option would be the cadet, with possibly a larger chainring. The Chainring is unfortunately not replaceable. So would have to get new cranks and drill holes to re-mount pedelec sensor or "Convert" existing chain...

    6 speed to 7 speed conversion

    Hi, I have an UM 36 going well since last November, up to about 300 miles now. Only issue is that the 14 tooth top gear ring on rear sprocket combined with 40T on chainring is not fast enough. It seems to be from the shimano "tourney" range, an MFTZ06 sprocket with 14/28 teeth. There seems to...

    Ezee Torq or Urbanmover

    UM update Hi, have been riding UM36 for over 2 months now, still very pleased with it. As said before, they should have had handlebar flick switch to cut the power when you want to power it yourself, I have now done this just poking two wires into the brake cut off switch connector in the...

    Ezee Torq or Urbanmover

    Urban Mover Comments Hi, I did the urban mover review on front page. The sensor problem was promptly fixed with a new one, which has been fine since. The brake squeal is quieter, but not gone completely yet. It may just take time to bed in on the new bike. Otherwise, I'm still happy with it...

    Urban Mover cutting out ?

    Thanks for the replies, Have talked to UM and they still think it's the pedal sensor. Apparently it is not hall effect, but an optical sensor which includes, 3sensors and a PCB. So will update you when it has been replaced. Looked at and test rode the UM36 torque sensor version today. It...

    Urban Mover cutting out ?

    Hi, I still have the problem of the power "coming and going" when under load and battery fairly fully charged. I know that there was a view that pedelec sensor was suspect, but the cutting out is not the same as when pedelec sensor cuts power, which is more sudden. Can someone explain for me...

    Urban mover problem

    Hi, urban mover has been great for first few weeks. Have just got 25miles on one charge. However, problem may be developing. I notice that when battery is well charged, the power is cutting in and out as I am riding, and it could be about once per rev of pedals. Any thoughts on this. I wonder...

    Lafree Twist Comfort Charger

    XLR vs NTC connectors Thanks, very helpful as usual. Just need to be bit careful here, because although the connector on urban mover battery is 3 pins it is "NTC" type which looks like XLR audio connector, but is slightly smaller. I think it has automtove origins for sensors, having a plus...

    Accessory and Apparel Recommendations

    Running front light off 24V battery. It would be nice to hear from anyone who has managed to use lights from 24V or 36V. There are a few bulbs around that are 24V and low wattage. I think LED is fine for rear, but I need to see where I am going for part of my journey, so would like to run say...

    urban mover > purpose of controller link

    Thanks, There is a separate 3 wire connector, which I feel sure must be for the torque sensor. I think the white wire link must the the 15mph speed limit which they are conveniently not implementing. I can't really feel the motor cut out at any speed. Have found the manufacturer of the...
