I am about to install a hailong battery on my modder Vulcan e spec, it has 3 custom mount holes I was just going to use 2 of them. What I didn't realise is they are spaced wider than normal bottle holder holes and it won't quite fit. Am I going to have to drill the frame or is there an easier way?

I have a 48v hailing battery arriving for my Vulcan tomorrow. The controller box I ordered is coming from China so could be a while. Anything I could use in the meantime that's sturdier than a crappy frame bag?

I am thinking of modding my Vulcan e spec even further with some big power kit. I want to know the pros and cons of each. I'm guessing the mid drive will be waayy better range. Also would like to know the minimum 48v battery I would need for at least 20 mile range in each case

Want maximum coverage for the coming winter, I have sks beavertails fitted but the rear isn't long enough and they are rather flimsy. Was looking at sks bluemels 75u but they are expensive, anything similar that won't break the bank? Not interested in mudhuggers etc I want full guards with stays...

Anyone know what size the motor wheel spokes are? One has just broken at the nipple. It is a drive side spoke if that makes a difference

My partners bike has developed a clunk in the rear hub motor that happens once per revolution. It happens powered or unpowered so it's definitely mechanical. It's a deep clunk and can be felt through the frame, worsens with peddling, have ruled out spokes and brakes already, I'm guessing either...

Had a few front skiddys on all the wet leaves, mud, moss and general misery that the current weather is bringing, fortunately I remained calm and put downward pressure on the outside of the corner to recover in all instances. Also even my full coverage mudguards did not stop me from having a...

After having mare redoing some connections I realise my crimpers are bloody useless. Anyone recommend a good one?

In need of a small controller, preferably dual voltage as I plan to upgrade to 48v eventually

My controller is 13 amps, I believe my battery is rated 19 amos. Is there much to be gained from soldering the shunt or is it marginal difference?

Would upgrading to a 48v battery on the same hub be worth it? Is the difference noticeable?

So I bought this controller https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/24V-60V-1500W-Electric-Bike-E-bike-Scooter-Brushed-Brushless-Motor-Controller-ST/253823287117?hash=item3b190bff4d:m:mww9KOJZR8P_2I02FqFI3wA Along with a suntour nexus crankset and thumb throttle, Pas sensor Bought the crimp connectors to...

I have been hucking it around the street lately trying to get my (limited) BMX skills back and I was thinking of hitting some real jumps with this beast. Now I know the forks will be crap on anything that gives decent air, but are the rims and frames capable do you think? I used a slanted kerb...

Is there any source that isn't a ripoff like Halfords? Would also like a 48v one if possible as I changed to a dual power controller. After a flat battery yesterday I decided a need a spare

In need of the above, for MTB. Can't be seatpost mount as it would interfere with trailer. Scruffy bastards. Basically I need full coverage to stop it slinging up

I ride a lot of roads but sometimes visit some pretty loose muddy gravelly stuff, the hybrid tyres just weren't cutting it. I got some cheap eBay neutral tyres and while the grip is excellent the road is chewing through the rear knobs at an alarming rate. Is there anything not too pricey that...

Just spotted this today browsing a decathlon store, seems to be a direct rival to the Halfords Vulcan and is arguably better looking. https://www.decathlon.co.uk/e-st500-electric-mtb-black-id_8487238.html

I like to use studs in the winter to avoid certain death. Had a shop around and they are rather expensive for 27.5 Then I noticed some self install studs on AliExpress, anyone tried fitting these before? I have a few old tyres I can defile

Anyone done it? I've applied for a post that's better pay than my current role and less responsibility. I'm looking for advise for the transition should it actually happen. Totally off topic I know but I'd be bringing my bike lol. Living costs seem similar. The job is forklift operator for...

Both mine and my partner's bike have inputs for lights on the controller. Can anyone recommend some that don't need panniers or fork mount as mine has neither? Or a way to adapt these to a normal MTB?
