Hi Just had a catch up on your post . Cheaper to just buy a used wheel less messing around . I have no got any Vengence wheels as they sell quickly but I do have one from a Carrera e spec Subway . 27.5 they are the same . Once you have ridden this bike for a while I think you will then want...

Seen cheaper ones around £150.00 , sculldugery lol !!!!!!

Seen these components (photo attached ) on e bay . For Yamaha and Similar one for Giant drive mid drive motors. Has any one any experience of using theses gadgets . Just wondering what the electronics experts on here think of them apart from they are a speed de restriction device.

I was riding a Giant E Tour E + Yamaha mid drive . Completely factory standard testing it out on a flat road 20mPH speed limit. No sped display on the bike. As I passed a radar 20MPH flashing speed sign it told me to slow down as I was peddling the bike faster than 20MPH. So I would think...

NATO really needs to stand now with Ukraine or I think this will go down in history like when Britain, France and the rest gave Hitler Chezchoslavakia and leas to WW2 Putin telling the rest of the world no troops in Ukraine whilst he sends in North Koreans they must be laughing at the...

Maybe they should send seized e bikes to Ukraine to help in place of crushing

Yes a lot of them advertise KT but when you look closely they are not . Topbike said they will shortly stock the 17A I have asked them if they can source 20A same dimensions as 17A let you know when they come back to me. I just order a 17A on e bay when I start the build I will put on a new...

Yes agree sensible riding is key. That said bikes being seized is only going to get worse because of the toe rags using high powered one to steal ie snatching phones , wallets ECT. If they are already out with intent to commit crime they probably just will not stop if instructed to do so by...

History repeats the Japanese used cycle’s with great effect to move against the British in the far east during WW2. If a battalion of infantry had big powerful silent e bikes with air cover they can change the dynamic of a battle and not break down if they ran out of fuel!!!

If people are going to use e bikes or e motorcycles that look like the ones in previous pictures or you load a bicycle up with huge motors and batteries then the Police and other agencies are going to stop you and seize the bikes. However I am finding it’s a bit like solar every one wants just...

Do you have a model number for that pls ?

Yes I know what you mean ,. We plan something then get on and ride and it’s not what is expected with so many different set up,s possible. When we first bought the Prime I took an instant dislike to it but for an older bike it turned out to be very useful both the wife and I used it to drop...

I been looking at the 17amp because they fit in the Array housing just a bit bigger than the 15Amp ones. Or I would go for a 20amp too. I have the 48V HL YOSE Battery , going to use one of the Bafang Somerby rims and motor KT LCD 4. As I have all these bits already With a left size PAS do you...

I I struggle with my bog standard arc welder Mclaran use Epoxy on sports cars to hold the Chassis together

I have been looking at 17amp KT controllers with light Top bike only have 15Amp I found the 17A on e bay company called easy shop would Paul be better off with 17A if going up to a 48V battery not much difference in dimensions size . Or are you advising bigger Amp Controller
