Haha yes. Now in my 50th year of on and off MZing Yes I had Pneumant tyres on my first bike. Current one has a Honda TLS front brake. Now on Dunlop and Metzler tyres. My first bike was a Lambretta which had no functioning front brake at all for 6 months as an impoverished schoolboy I had no...

Thanks Yery useful info.

Thanks, however I will be left with a wire left over there are only 8 wires going to the motor. Controller has 9.

I can't recall ever having to make a crash stop from 14mph, just stopping pedalling is enough to reduce speed most times thans to wind resistance. Most of my braking is to trim speed on descents so the only additional demand on the brakes is from the weight of battery and motor and this is a...

I volunteer at a bike refurbishing charity and for reasons of liability they are reluctant to have anything to do with electric bikes. I have rescued a few bits and pieces from being scrapped. At present I have a complete Yose Power conversion kit apart from the motorwheel. I recently acquired...

I volunteer at a charity that refurbishes bikes for resale and the don't really want to handle Ebikes because of warrantee/liability issues so I have been rescuing a few bits and recently had the good luck to come across a Yose conversion kit with a good battery.

This video is very helpful

Thanks for your very helpful and comprehensive response. Blue goes to MS so possibly throttle as you suggest. Handlebar control has a 2x 2pin plugs, red blue and green black and 2 lose wires ,yellow and white. Light voltage is 36v I think? so easy to check. As well as the crank sensor I am...

I volunteer at a charity that refurbishes bicycles and recently rescued some bits from a stolen/recovered 20" wheel folder with a view to converting a previously rescued Dahon folder. Unfortunately because a lot of the wiring was inside the frame and had to be drawn out through small holes I...

I swear by Mirrycle mirrors and have them on all my bikes. Fold out the way and the joints are stiff enough that the mirror won't shift on bumps

Hi All. owner of A Cube hybrid (whose battery failed one week inside the warrantee period) and converted a DahonSpeed folder using an Ebay Yose Power front wheel kit, 36v, 250w. Current project is to do a second Dahon using salvaged parts around a Bafang 8Fun rear wheel.
