Don't worry about the bike! he is old school, no aftermarket mods sort of guy and restorer. This will be on a second engine and the Alton kit only fits Commandos...? So anyone got a Wrecked mid drive?

Hey Guys, Not seen that solo starter before i will let him know and it is for a big twin. Have to say though that he is just investigating at this point and fancies more of a look at one than a serious consideration. An electric start is the preferred but getting a nice reduction seems to be...

He mostly interested in the package having both the motor and reduction. Its for an old 1960s Norton. He seems focused more on reducing speed.

Hello Guys, My dad has looked at my tongsheng and fancies trying to fabricate a electric start for his classic motorbike. We are in the south UK. Anyone got a broken Tongsheng or Bafeng to sell? Will accept unrepairable! Thanks Staps

Hello Guys, My dad has looked at my tongsheng and fancies trying to fabricate a electric start for his classic motorbike. Anyone got a broken Tongsheng or Bafeng to sell? Mechanicals are the focus really. Thanks Staps

NP https://github.com/OpenSource-EBike-firmware/TSDZ2_wiki/wiki Someone mentioned in my pedelecs thread an "pre made" cable being sold. If you need to get rid of one of those bikes and they are large, let me know. My bikes kinda on the way to have every part replaced :confused:

No soldering / straightforward was what I thought! Also peter.c - Maybe I missed a post on endless sphere - it is over 200 pages long Haha.I would be very interested in that cable! as long as its not $40 + $20p&p and not really a $10 bafang cable! My understanding is that the 860C is really a...

Hello Gavin, that is what im doing I am performing the firmware update to the 860c but trying to keep the mechanical throttle working ( which is what the 8pin model has over the 6pin). So from actually having it it front of me i have learned/ kinda guess right now The method detailed on the...

Please Help! before i spend more money on cables and time waiting for post from China! I am trying to use to use the "recommended" 860c display but cannot find one that uses a 8 pin connector are they all just currently sold out? Ok found a solution - for anyone else -...

Just chipping in but the open source firmware update is supposed to give increased power, responsiveness and battery life to the Tongsheng. See review how to - https://github.com/OpenSource-EBike-firmware/TSDZ2_wiki/wiki/How-to-install-the-Flexible-OpenSource-firmware You can also do stuff...

The freego raptor seems to have been repacked and upgraded into the Analog motion am1

Thanks guys for your advice I have a lot of armoured tyres, slime stuff and sanding time spent already. Damn pinch flats I might be the guinea pig then

Hello All, Has anyone tried out the really cheap solid tires on ebay? 2 x tyres 23mm/700 for £13! I have a recurring puncture issue and now the rims are quite sharp from long walks with flat tyres, this is gonna write off the ebike. Better a hard ride than no bike. One thing is that the...

Got it, thanks for your advice

Thanks for that, I got it now. But I am only now realising that that you recommend a LG HG2 20a/3000mah over Mj1 10a/3500mah. These are essentially the same price at the moment. The original battery was 26F 5.2a/2600mah could l ask your reasoning for the HG2? Is it that the BMS does not control...
