Hello Mate, FYI, this is a pedelecs forum whose participants, for the most part, ride assisted bikes conforming to e.u. and British law. You won't be aware that there have been three deaths , in the last few weeks, involving under aged boys riding high speed illegal motorbikes. So it's a bit of...

Top bike kit have all the gear you need, including KT controllers. You do have to put the list together yourself rather than a kit ready to go as supplied by Whoosh. They've had a few mentions on the forum though I've not yet used them myself. They also have an Aliexpress site as well as their...

Check that the hatch on your car is actually metal, some are composite/plastic and not suitable to hang a rack on.

Think I'm on my 3rd Marathon plus on my front hub. One was so worn the blue was showing through, didn't puncture though. I run them at around 55 and, as you say, the centre goes bald first.

I thought I had some sort of handle on this, but now I'm thoroughly confused. Thanks Linfitter ! My Ezee kit, bought in 2014, has no markings on the front hub. No idea what the controller rating is as there's no markings on the outer case. It'll spin to 19mph on the stand and does not cut out...

Think we're going to need more info/pictures. What's the motor, what plug does it have? What battery capacity? What's it's maximum current? What is the existing controller? Great to hear someones cycling to school. However, given recent events I hope your lad is over 14 and the bike is within...

Ooooo, leave it out, it'll look great at 30mph with a full face helmet. :cool:

Generally displays and controllers are bought as a matched pair, otherwise problems, such as you are having, ensue.

Once again, thankyou for the many stunning views. I had suggested the 500 in our roof top camper + bikes to my wife. But sadly she suffers horrendously from bites, so I don't think I'm going to get to see them for myself. Just one thing, as a Welsh resident, where's all the sheep?

How old is the battery? Has it been used regularly? Has it been charged regularly? Doesn't matter how many miles it's done, how old it is is more improtant.

Definitely pointing down to form a drip loop. Reason being, if the cable enters the axle from the top then water runs, unseen, into the axle and tracks along the cable into the motor itself. This then causes all sorts of rust problems. I know the shorter route looks tidier but it will bite you...

If you can post a picture of the controller, with it's various leads, and it's name/model, some one will be able to help you.

I've never found a truly sturdy strap on and electrics are far too heavy to lift onto the roff, even with the battery removed.

I do like a good ferry, never seen one like that though. I remember, as a lad, taking the Servern ferry crossing on a return trip to Birmingham from Devon with my parents. I think my dad did it 'cos he knew I liked ferries. This one had a turntable built into the deck. The crossing was quite...

So, let me get this straight. We all want to live peaceful lives. To that end we employ people to be 'Officers of the Peace'. Now what seems to be being said here is that such officers should not seek to apprehend people who are breaking the law (and hence the peace) in case said people injure...

Please try to be clear so you can be helped. Saneagle asked you if it sounds rough when you give it power. There is a very definite reason for this question with a, normally, very simple solution. But you must be clearer in your description of what's happening and when. If you hold the wheel...

Most rear hub motors are 140/144mm between dropouts. 6 speed is likely to be freewheel but can't tell from photo.

Great.........errr, what's the point of that?

That's called a kettle plug, normally for 240v. More information is needed: What voltage is the battery? Where is the original charger? A photo of the ratings label will help.

If you want to sell your bike because brake pads and transmission need replacing, I'm not sure a kit/conversion is for you. With BBS motors there can be a lot of fettling needed to get the chain line right, requiring a lot of hands on. Conversion kits are a great way to get to know your machine...
