    Thanks for this , wish I had seen it earlier. The attached photo shows a raised ring that should be seated. Underneath it is a ball baring set. All the balls are there but the stuff in between is disintegrating. . This the video I previously mentioned. the motor is slightly different to...

    Motor cutting out, thoughts?

    Well the motor is not a Bafang ,but a Shengyi. I seen another related thread on here and that it seems was sorted out. Research suggests Shengyi parts are hard to find. You tube video of a guy trying to fix what looks like the problem I have. He never managed to fix the planet gears...

    Identifying a rear hub motor.

    I'm having problems with my bike (Volt Pulse X), the dealer is asking as to what the branding is on the motor. Is it a Bafang R1, R2 and so on. I can't find any brand name or letter number. I have been looking at replacing the motor and on Amazon I've seen what is labelled a Bafang motor. Yet...

    Volt have got back to me. They're saying it sounds like the planet gears need replacing. They want the model number. It's supposed to be a Bafang motor with possible r1,r2, and so on. I can't find it.

    Motor cutting out, thoughts?

    Yesterday 30/05 I used the bike, it did cut out usually on braking or slowing down. If I can maintain a steady speed the motor runs without problem. When I got a chance to ride safely and watch the disc. It never stopped moving. That doesn't explain why the motor is cutting out. Might it be...

    Motor cutting out, thoughts?

    I was able to look at the disc whilst cycling and it moved as it should. I'm going to remove the brake sensors and try the bike without them. As most of the time the motor cuts out when the brakes have been used, It can't do any harm. Maybe the speed sensor is faulty.

    If you look at the photo I posted I can't see that being possible.

    If I can get a new one that'll be the better thing to do but in the meantime some tape and a clean will be tried,

    Only if I hold, I can't work out what would hold it while riding. You mentioned earlier putting some insulating tape around the axle might help. I'll give that ago.

    Motor cutting out, thoughts?

    I don't remember anyone asking the question but yes anytime I unplug it I make sure it's reinserted as far as possible. I've just been out on the bike and it wasn't going well but it did pick up and then gave up. I got off it and pushed the disc regardless of measurements , got back on the...

    Motor cutting out, thoughts?

    You mentioned thermal cut outs, when I used the bike on Sunday. It was a round trip and the first part was mostly downhill. Thus the return was uphill , the journey started with a lot of cutting out but the further I went the less frequent the cut outs. The return was a pleasant surprise...

    Motor cutting out, thoughts?

    On another forum one person says that when the walk assist throttle is intermittent, to which it is. Then that rules out the speed sensor. I think I may have mentioned the walk assist throttle problem on here , but like the cutting out motor it's doing the same. Does it rule out the sensor...

    Motor cutting out, thoughts?

    Have you got a problem, you only seem to be asking pointless questions. It's verging on weird. So as you haven't offered any advice. Or you can tell me what advice I have not tried. Then just stop.

    This is why I don't like to google. Too much conflicting info. Though I did google for this particular info and 1mm -3mm is what's showing. So I'll keep mine inside these measurements.

    Motor cutting out, thoughts?

    I've just had the crank off and removed the disc. The splines are in good condition and the disc, though I can hold to stop it rotating. It is as rigid as I think it could ever be. Watching some You Tube videos some sit on the square part of the axle. Mine doesn't and it sits on the round...

    No No wires have been crossed assumptions made and oops all hell brakes out. I appreciate your offer of help and would gladly accept any you have to offer. The way things are going in my private life are not helping me to take note of what's been said or offered. I did use my bike today (...
