Hello VFR, I have taken out the motor from the hub. Motor looks quite corroded so have included photos below. Do you think it’s worth splitting down even further? If not, do you have any idea what motor it is? I can’t see any makers mark on the motor casings. Any help you can give, thanks. Bob

From what I have seen, no signs of any sealing of the controller and probably not the hub either. I have taken off the hub cover to reveal the nylon cogs which look okay but I'm struggling to take the whole cassette out. The remover tool purchased from Halfords, didn't fit so I opted to take...

Thanks for your quick reply VFR, Thanks for the information too. Given that the bike has been unused for a number of years I think it may well be a corrosion issue judging by the state of the controller. I will take the motor out and send a few photos. Cheers, Bob

Hi Neal, I checked the hall sensors via the method that you and VFR advised, as per VFR's thread, I checked the red and black wires, reading was 4.92 volts. I then checked black to blue, black to green and black to yellow, each time I connected to these wires I got a similar reading but no drop...

Hello Neal H, Pardon my ignorance, the history regarding this being that I acquired the bike about a month ago from a friend of a friend, a widow, whose husband kept the bike for spares, so little is known about it but, from its condition, it is apparent that it has not been used for a very...

Hello Neal H, I do accept that normally the method vfr suggests would be the logical step but, given that I have connected this hub to a system I know is working, the problem must lie within this rear wheel hub hence my need to dismantle it. Thanks for your input though. Bob

No, I don't know better, its just that I know that something is wrong within the motor and I need to remove it from the wheel hub to check all possibilities. I do thank you for your input though. Bob

Hello VFR, Thanks for your quick reply. I connected the motor to another bike that works fine and Nothing!! so i'm fairly sure my problem lies in the motor. Any further help would be good. Bob

Hi Rob, I'm in Upton, Chester, CH2 1ED. Price is fine if you can sort out the postage costs we can sort total cost. Thanks for quick reply, Cheers, Bob

Hi All, I would like to inspect the rotor and stator in the rear hub. Could anyone tell me what the make of the motor is and how you get at it. Any special tools needed?. I suspect that I have a hall sensor problem. Any help is greatly appreciated. Bob

Hello Rob, I'm interested in the tyres. Where are you based? What are you looking for price wise? any ideas how much postage would be? Hope to hear from you. Bob

Hello Michael, I am new to this site and on checking discussions re upgrading the LPX battery on my Salisbury I see that in 2019 you upgraded yours to 17Ah using Panasonic Cells. Did it improve the performance? Can you recall where you purchased the cells and could you describe the procedure...
