    Speed sensor way off

    Installed new controller on Carrera vulcan e spec. It works, but the speedo is showing speeds that are clearly faster than what I'm actually going. Wheel size set correctly. There is an offset adjustment but it doesn't allow enough tuning. Could this be an incorrect hall wiring doing this? I...

    Pedal assist lag/speed wrong

    So I've finally put the new controller in my carrera and I have a problem, the pedal assist takes forever and a day to kick in, then keeps going for a rather long time after. Any fix for this? Also the Speedo is completely wrong, 60mph!? It's quick but not that quick lol

    Motor cuts under load

    I'm in the process of changing the controller on my Vulcan e spec to hopefully derestrict it. When testing the throttle spins the wheel fine off the floor but when riding it keeps stopping and I cant get it up to speed. Bad connection?

    Which bike should I have bought?

    My carrera is too damn slow and cuts out occasionally. Could do with a bit more capacity for range, I can get 40 miles but its hard work in eco. Oh and no throttle. Otherwise It's a fantastic bike capable of all the trails I do. I originally wanted a whoosh rio but needed finance. Any other...

    Wanted 27.5 hub

    I've decided to hell with suntours system and its issues, anyone got a 36v 27.5 hub they want rid of? Going to use the existing battery and ditch the rest, preferably something high torque like bafang swx02 or bpm. Oh and cassette preferred

    Play in hub

    Just had my vulcan back from its 6 week check. I told him about a little play in the rear hub so he stripped and checked it. He told me it's not the bearings but the motor assembly, and asked if I tow anything. I do, but am pretty sure 6 weeks of riding wouldn't do that. Fobbed off?

    26 to 27.5 spokes

    I have a hub I'm considering reusing but its on a 26" rim. I want to rebuild it as a 27.5. The current spoke length I believe is 198mm, what size would I need assuming the same lacing pattern?

    1000/1500 battery

    What size battery would I need roughly for about a 30 mile range with a high power kit? I don't mean gunning it all the time I mean achievable on medium assist with some climbs? Considering a higher power setup for the first time. Or is 500w more realistic for longer ranges?

    Adapting my old batteries

    I want to use my old batteries on my carrera vulcan e spec. I have tried to find an empty case to trasfer the inner packs to without any luck. Is there any way I can use them? Frame bag maybe?

    Kickstand for vulcan e bike

    Where can I get one? It has holes in the frame to mount one but not sure where to buy. Seems silly when the crossfire already has one included for the price

    Wheelie control

    After learning that my carrera vulcan can pop a wheelie I'm hooked! However it feels far too easy to loop out or it takes off faster than I'm comfortable with. Anyone else wheelie their e bike, any tips for better control? I might just be crap to be fair haven't done it for years. I'm guessing...

    Carrera crossfire/vulcan tuning

    So I've read all the threads, thought I'd gather all the information in one place and hopefully crack it. Button combos: Info and + displays wheel size and 4 letters eg CABA 27.5. Can't change anything Walk and info shows "dat clr" but no way to confirm it I've found. Power button won't shut...

    Hello!

    Hi. Haven't been on here for a while. Just got my second electric bike after the falcon spark crapped out on me one too many times. It's the infamous carrera vulcan e spec. It's a much better hill climber but my lazy arse isn't liking that you have to put at least some effort in. Was wondering...

    Determine nut size

    My front wheel nuts are like butter and are starting to round off. Is there a way to measure them as the supplier hasn't got back to me? They look pretty standard, threads are rather fine, maybe 1mm pitch Sent from my LG-H850 using Tapatalk
