Shorting the wires works so I had a look at the brake lever. It has engraved Wuxing 70P-DD and looks like this: with visible switch: I disassembled it and checked with multimeter. The switch actually works, but the red cable is broken somewhere. It seems I need a new cable. Now I hope I'll...

Thanks trex. I've ordered multimeter on ebay and while waiting for delivery I had a look at the controller. It has such label: and here is the controller itself: I haven't determined which cables go to the switch, but after I've put everything back the switch started to work, so it's...

there is a switch on the handle bar:

here it is:

I commute to work on a cheap e-bike from The Range (described here). A few days ago, after 4 months and about 500 miles, it started misbehaving. First the brake handle stopped switching off the motor. Yesterday the highest of the three PAS levels stopped working, or rather it works like the...

OldFart - I got replacement for my bike and after 600km it still works. The quality of the bike is low - it seems that there is no QA. The front wheel in the second bike is less true than in the first one. Recently a little metal thing that supports front lamp just broke during ride, but the...

Follow-up. After less then 2 months and about 500km the electric system started to malfunction. First the display diodes started randomly switching between "full battery" and "empty battery" (not powering bike when the battery was shown to be empty). Before I got back home the red diodes were...

It's £500 28" 25kg 36V 10Ah, 3 gears bicycle. I couldn't find any reviews before buying it, so I'd like to write a few words for those who consider buying it. It's too early for a review, I got it this week, so it's just first impression. Silent Force 0103 is sold in the UK by The Range, but...

yes, waiting for delivery

Apparently :-( I called Swindon branch and was told I can only buy it online.

the one linked from 'the spec' phrase above :-) i.e. http://www.silent-force.eu/producten/Fietsen/electrical_bike_SF0103/

That's what I hoped for. But according to the spec the battery is 36V 10Ah

I've sent email to Silent Force asking about the weight and got a reply quickly:

Both Sahara and Santana are very reasonable. I like how Cyclotricity Sahara looks and its low weight. On the other hand it seems that all cables are just strapped to the frame. I've been also considering conversion kit, but at the same price I can get a bike from The Range. So I'm inclined to...

It looks nice. I think 10Ah battery would be enough so it's only £599. But are there reasons to pick it over other ones? http://www.therange.co.uk/silent-force-electric-bike/-/search-engine-friendly-text/fcp-product/90325...
