Hi Woosh. Just wanted to thank you also for your advice about the mag plate / sensor area - your advice also got me looking in the right area for the problem from the very start. Here's what I posted to d8veh: Hi d8veh - SUCCESS! I took the new sensor & mag plate to my local bike fella and...

Hi d8veh - SUCCESS! I took the new sensor & mag plate to my local bike fella and although, for various reasons, it took just over 2 hours for him to fit with my (little) assistance; it was indeed the issue (a nick in the wire of the old sensor) and is now working just fine! He couldn't get the...

Thanks d8veh. I've text my local bike fella; told him that I'm getting the part delievered, told him also that I've been told he doesn't need a UK licence to work on the electrics of an E-bike and asked him if he'll fit the part to which he said, yes. So thanks again, if it has a heatshrink area...

Thanks again, d8veh. I've now ordered the sensor part (includes a mag disk too) via another company (don't have name in front of me, soz) who are shipping it to me. Sounds like what you've said; he said it's OK for all Kudos E-bikes. I've now also text my local bike fella who said he can fix...

Sounds like more excellent advice, d8veh. I'll start to look later today for a replacement sensor from Kudos; hoping that the news I got a while ago from the place I got my bike, Fosse Electric Bikes in Leicester, that Kudos no longer make the specific Tornado bike doesn't also mean that the...

HI Woosh. Just gonna 'copy & paste' what I sent to d8veh and thank you for all advice so far / any future... Okay... So the cleaning of the mag disc and general sensor area on Saturday SEEMED to work - as I said, I took it for a 2.5M test run and no issues, apart from a LITTLE juddery from 2...

Hi d8veh. Okay... So the cleaning of the mag disc and general sensor area on Saturday SEEMED to work - as I said, I took it for a 2.5M test run and no issues, apart from a LITTLE juddery from 2 'offs'. Then, after seeing your last reply, I did what you said and with resistance checked that the...

Thanks d8veh, I'll check that also. Cheers.

Hi Woosh. Test run, albeit 1.5 miles less that I'd do to work, went 99.9% well - just a little jittery from the initial 'off' and once after parking up but only for a few seconds. All fine after that and so far... Thanks to both you & d8veh for all advice. I do have another question for you /...

Cheers d8veh, excellent advice that makes sense. I'll keep an eye on he slipping and gap. Test run, albeit 1.5 miles less that I'd do to work, went 99.9% well - just a little jittery from the initial 'off' and once after parking up but only for a few seconds. All fine after that and so far...

Hi Woosh. As I've just posted to d8veh... Although I don't have a bike frame to lift my bike onto for easier maintenance, I do try to keep it as clean as possible. However, on your advice I located and then cleaned the mag disk & sensor area and it was indeed a bit 'gunky' to say the least...

Thanks also, d8veh, I'll keep an eye on that also. Much appreciated. Although I don't have a bike frame to lift my bike onto for easier maintenance, I do try to keep it as clean as possible. However, on Woosh's advice I located and then cleaned the mag disk & sensor area and it was indeed a bit...

Thanks Woosh! I wasn't even aware of the magnet disk and certainly wouldn't know where to look for it without your advice. Very much appreciated. I'll have a look and a clean-up of the area; making a point of looking for the sensor and how far it is from the disk and see if all that helps. Once...

New to Pedelecs – need help / advice. I’ve had a Kudos Tornado for just over 2 years now and in the last few months the power has been randomly cutting off when peddling. I’ll state the obvious in that it’s not due to me reaching the restricted speed limit and nor am I applying any pressure to...
