    Help! Hi, just purchased a new battery. 48v Samsung 25R cell 10ah

    I've just charged it as it was on 46v when it arrived. It charged to 52.7v. I left it on charge over night for the BMS to balance but it still read the same this morning. I double checked with the volt metre incase the 850c wasn't registering right. My concerns are surely it should be nearer...

    500w Tsdz2 new battery needed

    Hi, thanks for the reply. I'm getting my e and q mixed should've been 35e. Nice to hear a good review of the 25r as this seems a reliable option and as you've confirmed the mileage would be sufficient for its price!

    500w Tsdz2 new battery needed

    Hi all. I'm looking for a quality battery for my 500w Tsdz2 motor. I purchased the bike pre built by its previous owner from new. It came with supposedly a 48v 1000w Chinese triangle battery, which he was quick to say was more like 650w. The Maxcail battery is now failing to fully charge @...

    Woosh Big bear, high mileage?

    Hi all, I have been looking for an ebike for the wife. I have the chance of a Woosh big bear but it has 5000+ miles on the computer with front wheel drive. Is this a high mileage, should I be looking elsewhere? What are the things to watch out for with this sort of mileage from an 8 year old bike?

    Ebike newbie

    Hi all. I'm new to the world of ebikes but an avid cyclist and tinkerer of bikes since I was big enough to change a brake block! Kept the local kids bikes going for years on our small estate, they've grown up now and have kids of their own. Just ventured into to conversion kit scene as I thought...
