Prices on the website. Charges tiny prices or zero for nothing jobs which would otherwise see me spending hours on eBay buying tools. Habit of giving away tiny parts for free. Not design features I know but the latter two make me feel incredibly grateful to my local bike shop By Cycle in...

Does the Xiongda accept controllers & LCDs (& indeed LED displays) other than that which they sell - without any reprogramming involved? I've overspent a little recently (bought a nice Dahon Cadenza with Alfine 8 gear hub) and was wanting to see if I could get just a Xiongda motor on its own and...

This is brilliant, thanks for your advice Trex, D8veh, and Chain, I'll do as much as I can with the information given and post again when the next issue arises. I have two controllers, a 14a and a 10a, pictures to follow. I think the next issue is going to be with the two hidden wire brake...

*holds head in bafflement* Why, elifebike, why... Actually the second is Greenbikekit and I don't see it as quite as annoying but I still don't know what to put where. Would be really grateful for any advice.

Thank you. Is there a certain amount of torque I need to apply - should I be buying a torque wrench and long sockets for this job? Or should I be investing in a long adjustible wrench? £3 from Wilko for 200mm, £11 from Amazon for 300mm . I don't own any spanners but suspect the Poundland set...

Thankfully they're steel, you were right to ask, thank you. I've had the bike myself from new, it hasn't even had a hundred miles, it just looks rougher than it is!

This is before the bolt has been tightened (don't yet have the right tools to do that). As you can see in the first photo, there is only a tiny gap between the rotating part of the hub, and the 'ankle' of the fork, even before everything has been tightened up. I have two thin washers on the...

What sort of modification would be required to the ring spanner, is it a case just of it being flat enough? I've seen some non-ring-types for cheap which are flat, but obviously there's a higher chance that the nut will secured a part-turn off the optimum. Which could mean lessened tension...

Yes I agree much less aggro and time.

Do PayPal have the address?

It's only £200 for the woosh kit if you're in the UK, the 215 is the Europe price.

P.S. Do you know if there are instructions for fitting rear wheels anywhere please, the order of nuts and washers etc etc? I'm finding the Woosh guide useful but not comprehensive, it assumes some basic bike knowledge which I lack.

Thanks d8veh. Oh wow I can see exactly why John is advising me against. The mechanism for the anti-rotation washer seems to put all of the stress on the lips of the fork. That's crazy. That treats the fork as a consumable part more or less, to be replaced as and when it breaks. No idea what...
