I have an 11 speed Kalkhoff and although it is not 500w it can go faster than I feel any need to. My cadence is similar to yours. I do like to keep the speed of the motor up and try to use the gears as much as possible though the motor is so good it is easy to be lazy. I also have a BBS01 on...

Is Raleigh made by the same firm that make KAlkhoffs?? The Kudos kit is very good, I have tried a lot of their bikes and they are all good, as is my Kalkhoff.

I recently had an issue with a charger BMS were going to send me a new one but I managed to repair it easily so I cancelled the replacement. I would use them again but as always would check out UK suppliers first as they are improving their prices and customer service.

Very Unfortunate. I have bought from china and had no problem. If you did not know the supplier had mislabelled to save costs and had no collusion with them to try to save money, then the supplier should recompense you. I'd be trying very hard to get redress. Good Luck

Yep, all charged up and ready to roll. I think when it arced when I was testing that the dry joint that had come unsoldered probably re-attached itself. If I have any more problems with it I will pull it apart and re-solder all the power connections e.g. caps and transistors. Ta,

Great news, I made a 3 x 12v lamp in series load to test the battery and charger. The Battery was fine, voltage 35.6. Then I checked the output voltage from the charger, it was 91V I then connected up my 36v load and it worked fine until it blow the first lamp in the series. So I shorted out the...

Suga Wu from BMS has offered to send me a new charger for the cost of shipping $33.00 which I thought was very reasonable. My only worry is that it may be the battery management board that has blown not the charger. I checked the voltage from socket on the bottom of the battery and it was 2.7...

My Grandkids call their Great Grandmother Nana Colin, now she is happy to be called Colin. It takes all sorts :-) Though the point that selling one form of transport that can break the law is not a problem, but selling a bicycle that "Could" break the law is a problem, then it seems a little...

Thanks for the advice, strange you don't get arcing, from what I've read previously it seems a common theme, the last flash I had was a big one. I'll keep looking and see if I can get a better PSU by either modding an existing one or buying a "better one". I didn't want to dive in and start...

I bought the above from BMS with a BBS01 kit. It all went together like a dream. I have charged the battery about 6 or 7 times now. I always plug the charger in, switch on the mains, connect to the battery (always indoors) and as usual I get a flash as the connector arcs. It is very annoying...

Well the cable arrived yesterday, I fitted it today and it works like a dream. Many thanks for all the suggestions. It cost $8.50 including postage so very cheap compared to BMS and others who wanted to charge $30 postage.

VMT for that Shemozzle999, I'm on the case now :) "Edit" I've ordered it :-) We'll see how long it takes to get the part! Ta.

:-( At least someone else is up at this hour :-)

Mine does make a clicking noise occasionally. I wasn't sure if it was the pedal, then the noise stopped when cycling in Isle d' Rey. Recently the noise returned intermittently :-( A bit of a worry, if 50 cycles know what is causing the issue I hope they will advise customers of the steps needed...
