    Lithium battery replacement for old cytronex bike

    Sorry, I don't know what you mean - the lithium cell mentioned in the first post and the NiMh cell we used in legacy bottles are both 18650 and the NiMh cell has a slightly smaller diameter. We have never used D cells. It is most certainly not possible to fit 40, let alone 30 in the original...

    Lithium battery replacement for old cytronex bike

    We don’t often post on forums, but I think it is only fair to provide some factual balance on this topic: Why we don’t make the NiMh battery packs anymore: We did support the NiMh batteries continually for 11 years. We are a green company and wished to continue doing so for legacy customers but...

    Pro’s and cons of buying Cytronex

    Chris – this is disappointing from you - I thought you would at the very least be honest about your grievance with Cytronex which is over the fact that I declined to send you a part free of charge for your ten year old original Cytronex bike yesterday. I’m truly sorry we’ve fallen out over...

    Tongxin motor bearing longevity

    I am somewhat mystified by this post because I am only aware of one customer contacting me about such a problem and you have owned your bike for a year and four months not 6 months, and we repaired your motor in December after you fell off and damaged it, and since we found water ingress due to...

    Cytronex vs Wisper DaaHub motor

    Off road use Hello Greyhound_dog_1 Thanks for your post, thought I had better clarify. "Delicate" our motor isn't, I used the first prototype Trek to work until I changed to our new Bad Boy Headshock and it was still going strong after 7,100 miles and having been heavily abused for most...

    Anything out there like Cytronex ? Want to covert and On One Pompetamine

    You're safe on the Lycra front the Bad Boy is definately anti establishment. The picture I sent is actually the Cannondale Bad Boy Ultra 8 which has 8 speed Alfine hub, not the SLX version I meant to post (that I have been riding). Both will be available. Never considered using a bike with...

    Anything out there like Cytronex ? Want to covert and On One Pompetamine

    Cytronex kit and disk brakes Just seen this thread (sorry we are too busy with kit development to keep tabs on the forum) and thought I should just confirm some points: 1. The kit will have a disk brake option - I attach a photo of a bike we will be doing and which I have been riding for...

    Cytronex kit or alternative?

    Hello Pedalo Thanks for that. We take every motor apart before they are fitted to a bike, check and if necessary change parts, grease and add some of our own sealing. Over time we have noticed a number of changes internally and this was confirmed when we met the manufacturer last Autumn...

    Cytronex kit or alternative?

    Hello Eddie All I can say at the moment it the system is likely to be similar pricing to the current Cytronex system (without the bike of course). There will initially be two pricing levels one for the NiMh system and one for the lithium battery. The only thing I can currently say about the...

    Cytronex kit or alternative?

    Hello Alan (I presume) We should be able to get spokes to build into a 16 inch rim. Not sure if all the Dapush motors are the same number of spokes but the one I have just looked at is 36 holes. The motors are nicely built and should be fine in a 16 inch wheel (they are a bit heavier...

    Cytronex kit or alternative?

    Cytronex kit I don't usually post on the forum because when I did in the past I found I had the knack for killing any thread stone dead! However, I heard about this thread so I thought I should at least say something to apologise for the delays in launching our kit. So I would like to say...

    E-bikes at the Gadget Show

    The boys saw Cheggers coming and we just managed to hide under the Super Six plinth in time. Did I mention we also saw Ortis, and I'm sure the Queen would have popped over had she been at the show. Look forward to seeing you at Presteigne.

    E-bikes at the Gadget Show

    Cytronex was there too, and I feel I should point out that whilst we received some welcome visitors: http://www.cytronex.com/photos/gsl10/gsl_jason.jpg Mark's celebrity endorsement was provided by Keith Chegwin!

    Anyone else ordered Trek nano (Cytronex)?

    I don't want anyone to be unhappy with one of our bikes which is why we will bend over backwards to help if somebody does have a problem. It’s the ethos of the company, but also it is important to me personally, I love the product and I want every owner to feel the same. So if someone has a...

    Cycle to work scheme

    I think the Cycle to Work Scheme is an excellent initiative and I am in total agreement with the aim (i.e. get more people to cycle to work). Anyone can buy a Cytronex bike under the Cycle to Work scheme, which is a government scheme, as opposed to Cyclescheme which is a private business and...
